Failed Debugging with IIS7

Yesterday I ran into an issue when I was debugging a web application that I was building. It was debugging but as soon as I installed the “Not So” RAD Controls on my machine and restarted Visual Studio, I was lucky enough to receive this error every time I wanted to debug and step through my application:

Debugging Failed Because Integrated Windows Authentication Is Not Enabled iis 7

I wasn’t sure if it was the “Not So” RAD Controls or something else. So I went to Google and did a search for my error and came across this page. Very helpful as apparently at that time, my computer realized that I needed that patch. Weird but it worked so if you run across this, get the hotfix from Microsoft.

Denver Airport gets the Blue Screen

So today I was waiting at the Denver Airport to pick up my wife and saw this at the airport so I had to take a couple of picts of it. Not the BSOD but that’s what everyone thought as they walked by. I found it pretty funny. I guess they were installing some new software in the middle of a busy day. Enjoy…

Online Digg Top Whatever Lists

So today I’m looking at Digg and I see an article for 100 Essential Resources for Web Developers and I check it out because I am a web developer and these things interest me. I click the link and see quite a few links for cool resources. One thing glares out at me and that there are barely (I think I counted 3 or 4) .NET references on there. Being a .NET guy made me wonder why. I am a big fan of Digg and all that it does for the online community but it seems that this Web 2.0 is going in a direction away from .NET and towards more open source languages like PHP or Ruby on Rails. Those are fine languages (I’ve even worked a lot in PHP) but so is .NET.

So this made me think, why not make my own list? There are a lot of places that I look for resources so why not share? So here they are in no particular order:

• MSDN
• 4 Guys From Rolla
• ASP.NET
• Code Project – I always end up here with the help of Google
• ScottGu’s Blog
• GoDotNet
• EggHeadCafe
• DevGuru – Not so much for .NET but I end up using it a lot

It’s not very impressive but these sites can do for me what 25 PHP sites will do for the normal PHP guy. If you have one that I didn’t include, send it to me. I didn’t include it because I don’t know about it.

New home

So I have move my blog to a new home here at KodedKreations.net. My old blog, mythoughtsaboutcode.blogspot.com should be pointing here but just in case, there’s the news. I feel like I have more freedom with WordPress and especially on my own hosting account. Let me know what you think. I’m in the process of getting my own design in here but until I can get it how I like, I’ll be playing with a bunch of themes that I have found online.

Minesweeper the Movie. How awesome!!
