Ok, it’s a common task, you’re migrating from one server to another, but you have one website that responds to 100’s of bindings, and you have to move them. Of course you can copy and paste one by one, but here’s a script to do so. It also works with IDN domains. First, on the source server, run this; Import-Module WebAdministration $siteName = "YOUR_SITE.COM" $exportPath = "C:\TEMP\bindings.csv" $bindings = Get-WebBinding -Name $siteName | Where-Object { $_.protocol -eq 'http' } | Select-Object protocol, bindingInformation $bindings | Export-Csv -Path $exportPat ..read more

Optimizing #MySQL performance on Windows
Network Programming in .NET
by Infinite Loop Development Ltd

The MySQL community edition, when installed using default settings is limited to 128MB of memory, which makes it unobtrusive, and won’t hog resources if misused, which is fine. But sometimes you need a blast of performance, to help run queries fast, even if it gets greedy with memory. Everybody knows that memory is faster than disk, so if you find that MySQL is using 100% (or maxing out), disk usage, and only using 128MB of memory, then you will benefit from giving MySQL more access to available memory. Lets say your desktop machine is 16GB, you can easily give it 10GB (10G) of memory without ..read more

How to transfer an #S3 bucket from one account to another
Network Programming in .NET
by Infinite Loop Development Ltd
7M ago
Transferring S3 bucket from one AWS account to another is a pretty common action, and the AWS documentation on this seems to be quite lacking. At a high level, you need to give destination account READ access to the source account’s bucket, and give the source account WRITE access to the destination account’s bucket. In this way the destination does the reading, and the source does the writing. This means the whole operation can be performed by AWS S3 internally, without the data flowing to an intermediary service. The approach below is not exactly “least privilige”, so I’m assuming you trust ..read more

Change to #Azure #Devops #API, vso.loadtest scope no longer valid
Network Programming in .NET
by Infinite Loop Development Ltd

I use Azure Devops to host some of my code, and then to automate deployments, I use the Azure Devops API, which up to now has worked great. Today, suddenly I got the error; ?error=InvalidScope Returned, appended to the callback URL after authorization. I hadn’t changed anything, so automatically presumed something must have changed on the Azure side. I logged in, everything seemed fine, I made a minor (non-breaking) change to the app definition, and pressed “Save changes”, then I saw the above error “Scope is not vald, Cannot mix uri based and modern scopes ‘vso.loadtest’“ Granted, I didn’t a ..read more
