EF6 ObjectMaterialized causes SqlExceptions in tests - entity-framework-6

When subscribing to ObjectMaterialize
((IObjectContextAdapter)context).ObjectContext.ObjectMaterialized += (sender, e) => { /* Note, fails even when the handler is empty */ }
this works fine in production code. However, as soon as I add this, I get in tests exceptions:
Message: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException : A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
Removing that single line (ObjectMaterialized += .. ) resolves it again. I have been debugging, but cannot find the cause. Does anyone here happen to have encountered this before?

I'm a doofus... This was in a test assembly that didn't have a ConnectionString, and apparently adding this handler causes a connection to be established when instantiating the DbContext.
So, if you have this problem: Add connection strings to your App.config of the test project.

Spring AMQP and RetryTemplate

I have a RabbitTemplate configured with a RetryTemplate in the following way:
#Bean
public RabbitTemplate myRabbitTemplate()
{
RabbitTemplate template = new RabbitTemplate(myConnectionFactory());
template.setChannelTransacted(true);
template.setMessageConverter(myMessageConverter());
template.setReplyAddress(MY_RESPONSE_PRIVATE_QUEUE);
template.setQueue(MY_RESPONSE_PRIVATE_QUEUE);
template.setMandatory(true);
template.setEncoding("UTF-8");
template.setExchange(MY_REQUEST_EXCHANGE);
template.setBeforePublishPostProcessors(new MyMessagePostProcessor());
RetryTemplate retryTemplate = new RetryTemplate();
ExponentialBackOffPolicy backOffPolicy = new ExponentialBackOffPolicy();
backOffPolicy.setInitialInterval(500);
backOffPolicy.setMultiplier(10.0);
backOffPolicy.setMaxInterval(10000);
retryTemplate.setBackOffPolicy(backOffPolicy);
template.setRetryTemplate(retryTemplate);
template.setAfterReceivePostProcessors(new DelegatingDecompressingPostProcessor());
return template;
}
Doing connection tests using TCPView and WireShark, I think that in one of the connection cuts one of the sent messages has been duplicated (I guess by the configuration of the RetryTemplate).
Throughout the project there have been other connection failures and errors (ShutdownSignalException, TimeOut ...) and we have never detected duplicate messages.
Under what circumstances is the sending of the message re-attempted?
Thank you
EDIT 11/03/2019
Now I have a little more information about the repeated messages. During the sending of the message (and before receiving the ACK), a connection error occurred:
06-03-2019 10:09:52.919|WARN |com.rabbitmq.client.impl.ForgivingExceptionHandler|120||AMQP Connection XXX.XX.XX.XX:XXXXX|An unexpected connection driver error occured (Exception message: Connection reset)

The server receives two messages with the same spring_listener_return_correlation but different spring_request_return_correlation:
spring_listener_return_correlation=0475d6f3-4859-418d-93fe-ed96fb28e733, spring_request_return_correlation=2926
spring_listener_return_correlation=0475d6f3-4859-418d-93fe-ed96fb28e733, spring_request_return_correlation=2927
Can the configuration of the "RetryTemplate" be the cause of this duplicate shipment?
Thanks

IBM Content Navigator cannot connect to highly available Content Engine repository

We have an evirironment as follows:
CPE: 2 Servers
ICN: 2 servers
Application Server: WAS 8.5.5 Base
Both content Engine and Navigator are configured for high availability using Load Balancer. However, in case ICN 1 is connected to CPE1 and CPE1 is dwn, then Navigator is unable to connect to CPE2 even though load balancer of CPE is pointing to CPE2.

Content Platform Engine does not support session replication which would be required to failover. Once the connection is established, the client will bind to the specific endpoint so neither corbaloc nor a load balancing alias will help. If the nodes are not in a Cluster the peer will not be in the JNDI tree so do not know about each other. What you have is called a "stovepipe" configuration. You can load balance the front end, but each front end will talk to a specific backend, so not highly available. You could put the CE's behind a hardware load balancer (SNAT) but it would still lack fail over. CPE will run on JBOSS but ICN does not, so to be highly available you'll need to deploy to WebSphere ND or Weblogic.
Could you share the URI used to establish CPE connection?
When Content Platform Engine is made highly available through an application server cluster configuration the Content Platform Engine URI should have the following form (with no carriage returns):
corbaloc::node1_hostname:BOOTSTRAP_ADDRESS,:node2_hostname:BOOTSTRAP_ADDRESS/cell/clusters/your_websphere_cluster_name/FileNet/Engine
Example:
corbaloc::testnode1:9810,:testnode2:9810/cell/clusters/testwascluster/FileNet/Engine
This configuration requires the WebSphere cluster name in addition to the node names as part of the URI. The bootstrap port for a cluster configuration (by default, port 9810) is usually different from the bootstrap port on a non-cluster (standalone) configuration (by default, port 2809).
Only one URI is used regardless of SSL use. WebSphere EJB over SSL is automatically established if EJB security is enabled.
I found a link containing code to solve the issue in my case. The only problem is how to implement this code for Content Navigator
"This may help. I have recently written an EJB print app which is used by other apps at my company to generate printable documents. I am also using an access bean on the client to remotely call my EJB. The client is a 4 server cluster, and my EJB is a 2 server cluster. I have also experienced problems with the "connection refused" exception if I stop the application server(s) running my EJB when calling without restarting the client. Here is what I've done so far to resolve the issue.
Looking at the access bean, after you create an instance, when you call your remote method (whatever that may be and in my case is renderDocuments() which i will use in my example below) the access bean does the following:"
public DocumentRenderOutputContext renderDocuments
DocumentRequestList documentRequestList)
{
try
{
instantiateEJB();
return ejbRef().renderDocuments
documentRequestList);
}
catch (NamingException ne)
{
throw new DocumentRenderException(ne);
}
catch (CreateException ce)
{
throw new DocumentRenderException(ce);
}
catch (RemoteException re)
{
THE EXCEPTION THROWN WHEN THE APP SERVER IS
BROUGHT DOWN WITHOUT RESTARTING THE CLIENT
WILL BE CAUGHT HERE
}
}
If you bring down your EJB app server(s) without re-starting the client, the remote exception above will catch the "connect refused" exception.
So what i do inside the remote exception catch is the following:
try
{
//see below for methods
reset();
return retryRenderDocuments(documentRequestList);
}
catch (NamingException ne)
{
throw new DocumentRenderException(ne);
}
catch (CreateException ce)
{
throw new DocumentRenderException(ce);
}
catch (RemoteException remote)
{
throw new DocumentRenderException(re);
}
private void reset() throws NamingException
{
resetHomeCache();
resetEJBRef();
}
private DocumentRenderOutputContext retryRenderDocuments
DocumentRequestList documentRequestList)
throws
RemoteException,
NamingException,
CreateException,
DocumentRenderException
{
DocumentRenderOutputContext outputContext = null;
Properties properties = new Properties();
properties.put(
javax.naming.Context.PROVIDER_URL,
getInit_NameServiceURLName()); //im assuming youve
properties.put(
PROPS.JNDI_CACHE_OBJECT,
PROPS.JNDI_CACHE_OBJECT_CLEARED);
InitialContext initialContext = new InitialContext(properties);
Object object = initialContext.lookup(getInit_JNDIName());
ECommercePrintHome homeRef = (ECommercePrintHome) object;
ECommercePrint printEngine = homeRef.create();
outputContext = printEngine.renderDocuments(documentRequestList);
return outputContext;
}

Error in Zuul SendErrorFilter during forward

When my Zuul Filter is unable to route to a configured URL, the 'RibbonRoutingFilter' class throws a ZuulException saying "Forwarding error" and the control goes to the 'SendErrorFilter' class.
Now when the SendErrorFilter class tries to do a forward, another exception happens during this forward call.
dispatcher.forward(ctx.getRequest(), ctx.getResponse());
The exception happening during this forward call is
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: UT010023: Request org.springframework.cloud.netflix.zuul.filters.pre.Servlet30WrapperFilter$Servlet30RequestWrapper#6dc974ea was not original or a wrapper
at io.undertow.servlet.spec.RequestDispatcherImpl.forward(RequestDispatcherImpl.java:103) ~[undertow-servlet-1.1.3.Final.jar:1.1.3.Final]
at org.springframework.cloud.netflix.zuul.filters.post.SendErrorFilter.run(SendErrorFilter.java:74) ~[spring-cloud-netflix-core-1.0.0.RELEASE.jar:1.0.0.RELEASE]
at com.netflix.zuul.ZuulFilter.runFilter(ZuulFilter.java:112) ~[zuul-core-1.0.28.jar:na]
at com.netflix.zuul.FilterProcessor.processZuulFilter(FilterProcessor.java:197) ~[zuul-core-1.0.28.jar:na]
Finally when the control comes to my custom ZuulErrorFilter , i do not get the original exception. Instead the exception object i get is the one that occurs during the forward.
Update:
I found that a errorPath property can be configured to point to a Error Handling Service. If it is not configured, Zuul by default looks for a service named /error and tries to dispatch to that service. Since we did not have any service for /error , the dispatcher.forward() was throwing error.
Question
How can we skip this fwd to an error handling service ? We have a ErrorFilter to log the error. We do not want to have a error handling service.
We had faced the same issue and there is a simple solution to fix the Undertow "eating" the original exception, following my blog post:
http://blog.jmnarloch.io/2015/09/16/spring-cloud-zuul-error-handling/
You need to set the flag allow-non-standard-wrappers to true. In Spring Boot this is doable through registering custom UndertowDeploymentInfoCustomizer. Example:
#Bean
public UndertowEmbeddedServletContainerFactory embeddedServletContainerFactory() {
UndertowEmbeddedServletContainerFactory factory = new UndertowEmbeddedServletContainerFactory();
factory.addDeploymentInfoCustomizers(new UndertowDeploymentInfoCustomizer() {
#Override
public void customize(DeploymentInfo deploymentInfo) {
deploymentInfo.setAllowNonStandardWrappers(true);
}
});
return factory;
}
Now regarding the question, either way I would highly encourage you to implement your own ErrorController, because otherwise you may experience odd Spring Boot behaviour (in our setup - ralying on the default was always generating the Whitelabel error page with 200 HTTP status code - which never happens on Tomcat in contradiction) and in this way was not consumable by AJAX calls for instance.

How do I connect to a local Microsoft Sql server 2012 Express database from a C# program?

Can someone please help me fix my connection string? I am an absolute beginner using the MS SQL Management Studio but I am an experienced C# programmer. I am trying to figure out how to connect to a local database on my PC. I just installed SQL server 2012 Express today and I created a table with one row of data. I am trying to access that table from a C# program. I've been looking for help calling a stored procedure (with no parameters) and it seems like I am doing everything right, but I get an exception error "Could not find stored procedure 'GetCustomers'." I have also tried changing my the procedure name to "dbo.GetCustomers" and also "SqlTest.dbo.GetCustomers" and also "SqlTest.GetCustomers", but nothing seems to work. Clearly I am not connecting to my database correctly. I've been working on this for 4 hours now so it's time for me to stop and find help. I think all I need is a good connection string and the proper syntax for the procedure.
Connect c = new Connect();
if(c.MakeConnection())
{
try
{
DataSet data = new DataSet();
SqlDataAdapter adaptor = new SqlDataAdapter();
//changed to use stored procedure
adaptor.SelectCommand = new SqlCommand("GetCustomers", c.MyConnect);
adaptor.SelectCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
//adaptor.SelectCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();//this throws an exception.
adaptor.Fill(data);//this throws an exception.
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Logger.WriteMessage(e.Message);
}
finally
{
c.CloseConnection();
}
My connection class contains the following:
string connection = Properties.Settings.Default.DatabaseConnectString;
sqlConnection = new SqlConnection(connection);
sqlConnection.Open();
Connection string I have tried which seem to connect OK:
Server=(localdb)\v11.0;Trusted_Connection=Yes;
Server=(localdb)\v11.0;Integrated Security=true;
My Database name is SqlTest. I have tried several variations in my connection string, but most of them throw a logon failed exception error. I verified that my windows user ID has admin privileges for the database.
Connection strings I have tried which cive me logon errors:
Server=(localdb)\v11.0;Initial Catalog=SqlTest;User ID=Raphael\couchpotato;Integrated Security=SSPI;Trusted_Connection=Yes;
Server=(localdb)\v11.0;Initial Catalog=dbo;User ID=Raphael\couchpotato;Integrated Security=SSPI;Trusted_Connection=Yes;
Server=(localdb)\v11.0;Database=SqlTest;Trusted_Connection=Yes;
Server=(localdb)\v11.0;Database=SqlTest;Integrated Security=true;
I guess all I needed was some sleep. ;-)
I needed to set all of my SQL server services to Automatic. For some reason, they were set to manual, and so they were not started.
Then, I also needed to set the correct server name in my connection string. This is the same server name that is used to logon when starting SQL Server Management Studio. Here is a connection string that connects and accesses the correct database and table:
Server=RAPHAEL\SQLEXPRESS;Database=SqlTest;Trusted_Connection=Yes;

Why does XDocument.Load throw exception when ELMAH is enabled?

I have the following code that retrieves a link to the latest post from the blog subsite:
XDocument doc = XDocument.Load("http://www.mysite.com/blog/syndication.axd");
XElement node = doc.Descendants("item").FirstOrDefault();
string text = node.Element("title").Value;
string uri = node.Element("link").Value;
The code always worked fine. This week I added ELMAH.MVC via NuGet as a Package Reference. As soon as I deploy the web.config file with the added ELMAH sections, I get the following error:
System.Web.HttpException (0x80004005): Error executing child request for handler
'System.Web.Mvc.HttpHandlerUtil+ServerExecuteHttpHandlerAsyncWrapper'.

If I put the old web.config file back, the error goes away.
Any idea why adding ELMAH would cause XDocument.Load to fail?
You need to look at your ASP.Net site and find the server-side error.
