Anyone have any recommendations- March 11, 2006 The first week of full blown hosting my site with DiscountASP.NET has led to my site being down twice with no timeframe for recovery. The current cause is that their tech support mapped all file extensions to the ASP.NET ISAPI DLL. I inquired about the ability to map file extensions to the ASP.NET ISAPI DLL and specifically asked them NOT to do this. I just wanted to know if it was possible. So what do they do They go right ahead and map all registered..http://blogs.msdn.com/rich_crane/archive/2006/03/11/549605.aspx WinFxProgrammer.com just went online!- March 6, 2006 I just put WinFxProgrammer.com online. This site will be the start of my online endeavors outside of blogs.msdn.com. The site will contain mostly WinFx related material, but for now has a number of things already posted to my blog. While I need to speak to my publisher first, it is my hope that I will place excerpts from a book on Windows Communication Foundation that I am co-authoring. Check it out!

This new HTTP Handler is meant to support a number of features; however, the prime purpose is to allow the caching of these resources in the IIS 6.0 Kernel Mode Cache. Check it out!http://blogs.msdn.com/rich_crane/archive/2006/03/04/543484.aspx Enhanced ASP.NET Http Compression HttpModule! Now supports WebResource.axd!- March 3, 2006 1) NOW WORKS WITH WEBRESOURCE.AXD! There is a feature (bug) in WebResource.axd that prevents HttpModules from modifying the output stream for WebResource.axd. I disabled it! ; ) IMHO, a feature that breaks things is not a feature, but I can understand why they did what they did. They are hoping to fix this in .NET Framework 2.0 SP1. This ASP.NET HTTP Compression module fixes both the WebResource.axd issue and the Response.End issue. Please make sure to.http://blogs.msdn.com/rich_crane/archive/2006/03/03/542872.aspx |
