Blazor and EF Core to Nowhere land.
In the long decent into “Experimental” frameworks- this one being Blazor, I’ve been finding some challenges with getting Blazor to work with the latest EF Core. There’s a few examples of Blazor being used with EF Core (i.e. the CRUD example that’s floating around the inter-Tubes), but nothing that seems to work with the latest Blazor Lang template in the latest VS release. One can go to a lower EF Core version, well mostly… I’ve yet to get my Blazor Hosted Core test app to compile…. let alone the DB-Context to Scaffold… it just spews errors no matter which direction I go in… Oh Bother…. I have to remember that…

Dotnet Core Templates, or DOTNET new -i “the magic”
Time to touch on this topic again… because every time a new DOTNET SDK comes out I seem to lose the new templates. I understand the why, and ya I wish the .Net Core group would fix it. The “why”- each time one updates to a new Core SDK, the template scaffolds get placed into a new folder (usually under your users directory in a annoying place like ….\.templateengine\dotnetcli\”version of sdk”\). So each time you move to a new DOTNET SDK, this becomes a problem. The second part of of DOTNET new -i that is an issue, is if you have different nuget repositories set in VS. It’s a great…

Setting up SSL Certs for IIS 10
So as I enter the world of suffering to get SSL working on some sites… I noticed that most SSL providers (at least the free one I’ve been using) – don’t provide the cert in the file format I need to do just a “import” within IIS. Go figure! So what to do? Well as it turns out there’s a utility to make the the crt formatted file into a pfx (which is what IIS likes). openssl – look for it on the inter-tubes openssl pkcs12 -export -out anotherCert.pfx -inkey private.key -in certificate.crt Another point… I generally use SSL For Free for creating quick free SSL certs- they only last 90 days,…

BizTalk: The almost lost secret sauce
As I was poking about trying to move a support utility forward- I noticed that one command in me “grunt” works console app made use of a Stored Procedure I buried in the BizTalk MSG DB. It’s not big thing. Until I realized that when our systems where upgraded and moved about, I didn’t move my magic SP forward… Well Duh! (I won’t go into how one should never really bolt on crap to a server product, but it was a useful tool)… The SP was just complicated enough not to be able to just re-create from scratch – Yeah, one of those. In a nutshell, the SP looks through…
