Blogger : Formating a code snippet.

There's many suggestions for this.

Refer my question on stackoverflow.

However, the TechNet wiki recommends tohtml. Just paste in your code snippet, select the language, click the button, copy the resulting html and paste back into whatever.

I use the white style.

Neat!

TechNet : 15 minutes of fame

 

Over on the TechNet Wiki, I contributed an article on a Kerberos Survival Guide. 

Just been notified that:

The article Kerberos Survival Guide on the TechNet Wiki has achieved its 15 minutes of fame. Congratulations!

To clarify:

As you can see here: How do I earn points?,  the points you get range between 5 and 2,500 points when your article gets from 500 to 1 million page views. "15 minutes of fame" is the first milestone.

Enjoy!

ASP.NET : Handler “PageHandlerFactory-Integrated” has a bad module “ManagedPipelineHandler” in its module list

 

I do a lot of work developing applications on my Windows 7 32 bit machine using IIS 7.5 and then migrating them to IIS 7.5 on my Windows Server 2008 R2 64 bit box. Not as simple as it sounds.

Using VS 2010, my DefaultAppPool on Windows 7 uses the .NET 4.0 framework whereas it’s 2.0 on Windows 2008. So you need to make a new application pool and set it to “Integrated” and the 4.0 framework.

OK – then I get the above error. The blurb below on the error page says that the most likely cause is that:

“Managed handler is used; however, ASP.NET is not installed or is not installed completely.”

Check my installed features in IIS 7.5 and Yup – ASP.NET is installed, it has a handler etc. So WTF?

Mr. Google to the rescue.

Run a command prompt in administrative mode.

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319>aspnet_regiis.exe -i
Start installing ASP.NET (4.0.30319).
..................
Finished installing ASP.NET (4.0.30319).

Note: Your version of the framework may be different!

Notice that it installs ASP.NET even though it is already supposed to be there but it fixes the problem and all is well!

Enjoy!
