I have an AspNet, .Net Framework 4.8 project, that was recently updated from 4.6.1 .Net Framework.
While trying to integrate 'Sign In With Microsoft' using OpenIDConnect, I downloaded a Quick Start app from Azure's App Registration, and out of the box this app runs on https://localhost:44368
Both apps have Enable SSL = True. Not sure why the Sample app doesn't have any problem.
Any clues on things to look for? I haven't tested rolling out to our Test Server, but I need to be able to debug also. I can start with an http page and our app starts fine.
Thanks
Project Url For Sample App vs My App

I have been reading a book on React Native that builds a simple React Native App for IOS in the first few chapters. When compiling and running the project in Xcode, a packager runs in the background and I can also see my app trying to connect to local host.
My understanding is that React Native converts JSX elements to platform specific views. So my question is why does the App need to connect to a server and what is the purpose of the packager running in the background?
Also, how is running the app on an Xcode simulator different from deploying it on the app store?
I have tried to look online for answers, but no one has addressed them. It seems everyone is taking it for granted that all this is obvious.
After looking for an answer, I stumbled upon the following guide from Facebook that answers a different question but also addresses mine indirectly.
So apparently, the localhost is a development server used to link your javascript code to the app, which you use if you are testing on a physical device or a simulator. So the question that comes to one mind after reading this is why not bundle that javascript code with the compiled IOS files? Well, it is best to keep them separate because it enables you to simply change your javascript code from your computer and have it automatically sync with your IOS app.
Now, when it comes to deploying to the app store, you will need to bundle the javascript code and remove the implementation part where it connects to a localhost, which, again, is used for debugging purposes.
You answered your own question it appears! In development mode, the JavaScript bundle is served from the react-native packager server on your machine.
When making a release for the App Store and Google Play, the JavaScript is minified and bundled into the app file (.ipa/.app for iOS, .apk for Android).
Running the app in release mode is possible from Xcode. Depending on how your project is set up, release mode could be a different target, a different scheme within one target, or a build configuration within a target's scheme. For more on iOS targets/schemes, see: Xcode: What is a target and scheme in plain language?
I have a Qlikview dashboard that I need to present and I've created a site that loads the Qlikview server onto the browser and runs it from there.
I now need to create an iOS app that does this. But the requirement is that the dashboard shouldn't open on the browser. The server should be loaded and run from the app itself. Is there any way to do this?
PS, I'm completely new to iOS App development and any help will be appreciated.
Yes. While saving it as a shortcut and opening it in the browser would be simple, using Apache Cordova is the best way to develop a smartphone app with HTML5/CSS/JavaScript. From the website:
When using the Cordova APIs, an app can be built without any native
code (Java, Objective-C, etc) from the app developer. Instead, web
technologies are used, and they are hosted in the app itself locally
(generally not on a remote http server).
And to make things better, it's open source.
I'm building an iOS app that communicates to a Node.js API I'm also building. Locally, everything is ok, I've structured my iOS code in a way that I only declare the API base URL in one place (ie. 192.168.0.3:5000 - local).
However, you can imagine where I'm going with this.
Once I deploy the API to Heroku, what's the best way for me to manage the iOS side of things in regard to: 1. testing locally with the local API, 2. deploying the iOS app to the app store (ie. how do I tell it to use a different API URL?)
Any advice would be great on setting up a sane development environment for this...
In your XCode project, configure the "debug" version to use the local api and the "release" version to use the web api.
I am using MVC4 mobile display mode.
It works perfectly locally - if I use a user agent switcher it switches to mobile as expected.
As soon as I deploy it to my live IIS server it doesn't ever go to the mobile view on a phone or with user agent switched.
The server has .Net 4.5 on it and the site is using .Net 4 integrated for its app pool. (So doesn't seem to be this ASP.NET MVC4 mobile site displays correctly on local host not deployment server)
Any other ideas?
If anyone else has this issue make sure you check that the view is being deployed to the live server. It wasn't marked as Content for me so wasn't being dployed. I guess because I copied it into the project.
Anyway simple error on my part.
I'm developing an android application using Flex Builder 4.6.
It's fairly complicated app and I'm using HTTPService for communication with the server.
It was working fine until recently it stops working after making the apk file.
So From desktop simulator, in debug-mode in the mobile, the HTTTPService just works fine but when I make a release build and install it in the mobile, it just doesn't work.
I tried to track down the error, it's just simply shows 'HTTP request error'.
For example here is the mxml code I'm using
<s:HTTPService id="sayHi" method="GET" result="sayHi_resultHandler(event)" fault="sayHi_faultHandler(event)"
url="https://zaawi.co.uk/developer/controller.php" useProxy="false">
<s:request xmlns="">
<h>sayHi</h>
</s:request>
</s:HTTPService>
I checked the url https://zaawi.co.uk/developer/controller.php?h=sayHi in the browser which works fine, as well as, in the simulator and debugging mode.
The server(php) sending response in xml format
print '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><data><hi>hello world</hi></data>';
It was working fine for almost a year and just stopped working recently.
Please let me know if anybody else had this problem and how can I resolve this.
Many thanks in advance
I had a similar problem a while ago, my HTTPService requests started to fail and i didn't got anything useful in the FaultEvent, but after hours of trying different things i noticed that i had the network monitor enabled in flex, and since i had nothing to loose, i disabled it a voila! The app worked again!
I think when you have the network monitor enabled, the app redirects all requests thru a local proxy or something and that way you can sniff the requests, but this seems to stay when you create a release version and mess all requests.
So if you have network monitor enabled, just disable it, and then try to build your app again.
It appears that it is related to how the captive runtime calls https endpoints. Someone over on this thread Adobe AIR mobile app fails when using HTTPS on Nexus tablet, but works on Kindle figured out that by switching from the captive runtime to using the shared AIR runtime, the error went away. You may also want to try the latest AIR SDK and see if that solves the problem (although I've been seeing issues with the apps working on iOS using the 3.8 beta build, so you may want to try 3.7 first).
