• .NET Development Client Callback over HTTPS

  Is there a limitation of Client Callbacks running over HTTPS We have a custom server control that uses client callbacks and it runs fine in our local and development envionrments over HTTP, but it has stopped working in production over HTTPS. By not working, I mean the clienterrorcallback javascript method is getting called when the client callback event is fired on the browser. Is this a known issue Is there a workaround -Elijah No client callbacks work properly over HTTPS. You must ensure that you are using the ASP.NET ClientScriptManager to get the JavaScript function that will eventually be called. Could you provide some more information on what problem you are seeing and perhaps the code ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. .fbx vs. .x

  1) I've had virtually no luck getting the output of the AutoDesk convert-to-fbx tools to load into XNA successfully. Judging from the AutoDesk conversion tools, there are a number of .fbx variants in play. Maybe I'm converting to the wrong flavor of .fbx. Which variant does XNA like the best 2) In general XNA seems to like .x models better than .fbx models. What editors beside Blender produce .x directly Thanks for any insight. Cheers, Scott What is the symptom you are seeing Is there an error message when loading the model, or are you just unable to see the model when drawing it ...Show All

• Internet Explorer Development HTML/Javascript errors with IE7

  We developed an application which uses HTML/Javascript for the main user interface. We generate the HTML/Javascript using C++ code and then feed it to the embedded IE MFC control for rendering. This app was developed with IE6 and works fine in that environment. We recently upgraded some of our machines to IE7 and now when we run and the page renders in the embedded IE window, we get script errors. The errors we see are shown below. 1) Line: 1, Error: Invalid character 2) Line: 9, Error: 'CalendarPopup' is undefined The first error is a bit confusing, since if you view the source the first line is just <html>. I thought perhaps it wanted a valid <!DOCTYPE ...> header so I added that, but the error was still there. The second err ...Show All

• SQL Server Cluster failing connections with SSL error message

  We recently migrated our production environment from a win2k3/SQL 2000 EE cluster to a new 64 bit win2k3/ SQL 2005 SP1 Cluster. Cluster works fine for a while (3-6 hours), then our logins start failing. We recieve the following error in the event log: "The server was unable to load the SSL provider library needed to log in; the connection has been closed. SSL is used to encrypt either the login sequence or all communications, depending on how the administrator has configured the server. See Books Online for information on this error message" The only way to resume connectivity is to offline and online the sql service in the cluster. The only reference to this error that I can find has something to do with a hotfix tha ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Vista Master Volume Control with C#

  Hi, I have write a class wrapper to Vista API audio functions to control the master volume (level and mute). All functions of IAudioEndpointVolume Interface apper to work ok except the SetMute function. The problem apper to be the parameter pguidEventContext of type Guid. If I set the following value : Guid nullGuid; nullGuid = Guid.Empty; int retVal = iAudioEndpoint.SetMute(true, nullGuid); I obtain the error "value dows not fall within the expected range" while executin the SetMute function. If I set a different guid value I obtain the error "exception from HRESULT : 0x88890004" (error inside the COM library). All other functions work ok with null guid. Only the SetMute fun ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Build fails as the DLLs are in separate directory.

  Hi, I am trying to do a team build but it fails while local build happens successfully. Teh reason is perhaps because in the build I am trying to copy the files(DLLs) in a separate directory so in team build, it gives error that error while copying ABC.DLL to the location, access is denied. My directory where DLLs are stored is also added in Source control. How can I tackle such a situation in TFS. Thanks, Ekta There may be a better solution, but the quick and dirty way is to - add your referenced dlls into the bin folder (if it is for a windows app, make the output directory as \bin\) and upload these dlls from the bin folder to source control. You may also remove the dlls you have u ...Show All

• .NET Development Accessing custom Performance counters & .NET security.

  Hi folks, i have a quick question about custom performance counters and .NET security. On my local machine XP i can create and use custom performance counters in my c# application without a problem. all is perfect :) When i deploy my application to another server i get securityExceptions with the performance counters. So my question is this:- 1) Is it possible to use IN-LINE code to allow your program to get the 'proper' access to performance counters on the machine the application is running 2) If #1 == No, then is the only way to do this via manually allowing the user the application runs under special privaliges (eg. part of the admin account ). 3) if #1 == Yes, then could someone please provide some clues/hints ...Show All
