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(...

How to audit an Azure Cosmos DB

In this post, we will talk about how we can audit an Azure Cosmos DB database. Before jumping into the problem let us define the business requirement: As an Administrator I want to be able to audit all changes that were done to specific collection inside my Azure Cosmos DB. The requirement is simple, but can be a little tricky to implement fully. First of all when you are using Azure Cosmos DB or any other storage solution there are 99% odds that you’ll have more than one system that writes data to it. This means that you have or not have control on the systems that are doing any create/update/delete operations. Solution 1: Diagnostic Logs Cosmos DB allows us activate diagnostics logs and stream the output a storage account for achieving to other systems like Event Hub or Log Analytics. This would allow us to have information related to who, when, what, response code and how the access operation to our Cosmos DB was done. Beside this there is a field that specifies what was th...

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. Make sure that the assembly-qualified name is used and that the assembly is available to the running application. See http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=260882 for more information. at System.Data.Entity.Infrastructure.DependencyResolution.ProviderServicesFactory.GetInstance(String providerTypeName, String providerInvariantName) This error happened only on the Continuous Integration machine. 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...
