• Commerce Server Banners offline after 11pm

  Our CS2007 website stops serving all banners after 11pm and restarts it's normal behaviour after midnight. There are no time restrictions on the properties for the banners, only date restrictions. Is this a known issue/bug Thanks guys. -- Jorge Medeira Daily Start Hour and Daily End Hour are set from the boxes beneath the "All Day" checkbox. When you create it with "All Day" checked, both Start Hour and End Hour should be set to zero. The fact that it ends at 23 means exactly that: you won't see anything after 23:00:00 (11:00 PM). Try these steps (I just tried it on my dev commerce box) 1. Disapprove the ad so you can edit it 2. Uncheck 'All Day' ; the values should default to 9am-5pm 3. Save and ...Show All

• Visual C# Go to definition takes me to metadata file instead of source code

  Hi, In my solution when I right click an object and click on "Go to definition...", instead of taking me to the source file for that particular class it will take me to the file with "[metadata]" tagged at the end. How can I stop this behavior and have it go to the real file instead Thanks, Yi If you have a Web Site with a project reference, the DLLs and PDBs don't get copied to source control. However, if you remove the Web Site from the Solution and then re-add it, it includes the Dll's and Pdb's as references and adds them to source control. Is this a bug The reason i remove, then add a Web-Site is because this fixes a problem i have been experiencing with very slow builds. I find t ...Show All

• Visual C# Windows Service OnStart Event

  Hello Everybody I wanted to know how to work with Windows services In the Service it is said that we should not write looping code in the OnStart Event So where should i write my code of looping event as such i wrote in the start event it works fine Is it good to write the code in onstart as my code will take a time may be more than 30min to 1 hr And one more thing how to stop the service i.e after my code has done the work Thank you in advance Sarguna, The OnStart event handler is not intended to contain the service's 'work' code. Instead try moving your looping code to a function that follows the WaitCallback delegate definition and call ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem in the OnStart event. This will allow the OnStart event hand ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Ordered Test Results to HTML

  I remember earlier there was a discussion on the trx2html program which generates html reports from trx files. It only works on unit tests, and I did make some tweaks for web tests. Unfortunately I have no clue how to make it work for the results of an ordered test. Can anybody here help me I don't know what formatting is required in the xsl file... Thank you ever so much. -matt Hello, We don't support any tools that change test results files into html. Of course all the information is in the results file, so you could write a tool to create your html, but it won't be easy because the xml files are complex.

• SQL Server Performance issues in upgrading from SQL Server 2000 SP3(win 2000) to SS 2000 SP4(Win 2003)

  Of late the Sql Server and Windows server is bouncing and we are trying to figure out the issues in the environment. Some of recent happening are – 3 weeks back we moved from WIN 2K to Win 2003 EE; and Sql Server 2000 SP3 to SQL Server 2000 SP4.

Any suggestions I could locate only a similar option in Report Designer Thanks Well, this will do the trick but the standard textbox wont. You may have used a 3rd party custom control to achieve it in the past - only you would know. There are numerous suppliers of controls which may serve your purpose.

• Visual Studio Team System Unit tests not running in build type

  I created a build type that includes a test project and has a configured test list. When I run the build through Team Explorer, the log file reports: : warning : Test <testname> can not be found. It lists the four tests I have in my test list, so it can see the list, but can't find the tests. What am I doing wrong TIA jdn The tests do appear. They are new and so have never moved. This article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/06/03/Bugslayer/default.aspx suggests the problem is because there are hard-coded paths in there somewhere (my local machine where I develop uses the c: drive for instance, while the build machine uses the d: drive for its directory structure. ...Show All
