WTF - Package Load Failure - Microsoft.VisualStudio.TeamFoundation.VersionControl.HatPackage, Microsoft.VisualStudio.TeamFoundation.VersionControl

In cursul zilei de azi am avut parte de o experienta destul de neplacuta. De doua ori mi s-a restartat PC-ul fortat in timp ce Visual Studio se incarca. O sa spuneti si ce daca, asa am zis si eu, dar am avut o surpriza neplacuta sa ma trezesc cu niste erori destul de urate.
Dupa ce pornit din nou sistemul de operare si Visual Studio am vrut sa accesez din Team Explorer Source Control-ul dar m-am trezit ca acest lucru nu mai este posibil. Puteam sa vad lista de build-uri, documentele de pe SharePoint si orice altceva, mai putin sa accesez Source Controler-ul. Am primit o eroare destul de urata, asemanatorare cu urmatoarea:
... Package Load Failure - Microsoft.VisualStudio.TeamFoundation.VersionControl.HatPackage, Microsoft.VisualStudio.TeamFoundation.VersionControl ...
WTF, de unde pana unde, nici nu stiam de unde sa o iau. Am incercat restore la OS la o versiune precedenta dar la fel. Am incercat sa reinstalez Team Explorer-ul dar fara nici un rezulvat. Pana la urma am ajuns in cache-ul de la Team Foundation, unde a fost nevoie sa sterg fisierul "VersionControl".
c:\Users\[someUser]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\3.0\Cache\ VersionControl.config
Odata ce l-am sters lucrurile pareau sa revina la normal si am putut din nou sa accesez source controler-ul.
Din nou am avut o surpriza neplacuta cand am incercat sa deschid solutia pe care lucram. Nici unul din proiectele din solutie nu le putema deschide. Nu avea importanta ca era un proiect standard de .NET 4.0, sau de SL 4.0. Nici unul nu se putea incarca, iar urmatoarea eroare se afisa pentru fiecare proiect din solutie care se incarca:
A project with that name is already opened in the solution.
Din nou WTF, acest lucru se intampla si cand doream pe o solutie goala sa adaug un proiect. A fost nevoie sa fac repair la VS 2010 SP1, iar apoi sa reinstalez SL 4.0 Tools, iar apoi din nou repair la VS 2010 SP1.
I did it, solutia din nou se incarca fara probleme si totul a revenit la normal.
Sper sa nu aveti si voi aceleasi probleme.

Windows Docker Containers can make WIN32 API calls, use COM and ASP.NET WebForms

After the last post , I received two interesting questions related to Docker and Windows. People were interested if we do Win32 API calls from a Docker container and if there is support for COM. WIN32 Support To test calls to WIN32 API, let’s try to populate SYSTEM_INFO class. [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)] public struct SYSTEM_INFO { public uint dwOemId; public uint dwPageSize; public uint lpMinimumApplicationAddress; public uint lpMaximumApplicationAddress; public uint dwActiveProcessorMask; public uint dwNumberOfProcessors; public uint dwProcessorType; public uint dwAllocationGranularity; public uint dwProcessorLevel; public uint dwProcessorRevision; } ... [DllImport("kernel32")] static extern void GetSystemInfo(ref SYSTEM_INFO pSI); ... SYSTEM_INFO pSI = new SYSTEM_INFO(

ADO.NET provider with invariant name 'System.Data.SqlClient' could not be loaded

Today blog post will be started with the following error when running DB tests on the CI machine: threw exception: System.InvalidOperationException: The Entity Framework provider type 'System.Data.Entity.SqlServer.SqlProviderServices, EntityFramework.SqlServer' registered in the application config file for the ADO.NET provider with invariant name 'System.Data.SqlClient' could not be loaded.

On the devs machines, everything has fine. The classic problem – on my machine it’s working. The CI has the following configuration: TeamCity .NET 4.51 EF 6.0.2 VS2013 It see

Navigating Cloud Strategy after Azure Central US Region Outage

 Looking back, July 19, 2024, was challenging for customers using Microsoft Azure or Windows machines. Two major outages affected customers using CrowdStrike Falcon or Microsoft Azure computation resources in the Central US. These two outages affected many people and put many businesses on pause for a few hours or even days. The overlap of these two issues was a nightmare for travellers. In addition to blue screens in the airport terminals, they could not get additional information from the airport website, airline personnel, or the support line because they were affected by the outage in the Central US region or the CrowdStrike outage.   But what happened in reality? A faulty CrowdStrike update affected Windows computers globally, from airports and healthcare to small businesses, affecting over 8.5m computers. Even if the Falson Sensor software defect was identified and a fix deployed shortly after, the recovery took longer. In parallel with CrowdStrike, Microsoft provided a too
