I’ve been offline a lot lately preparing the arrival of our little one. Arianna Theresa was born on April 20th at 4:54pm. She was 8lbs 5oz and 21 1/2 inches long.

Read MoreDaily WTF - Deleting SQL Data (or Properly Formatting SQL)
We’ve been having an issue with one of our database tables’ mysteriously deleting data at random. We could have swore it was some sort of SQL intrusion or code bug. We leaned towards SQL intrusion because this database has been in use for quite some time. However, that was not the case. A new Stored Procedure that touched this table was added recently. In quick review, it didn’t appear that anything was wrong. Here it is:

Read MoreDebugging ASP.NET Pages that use the AJAX UpdatePanel
I ran into an issue earlier today where I had a web control inside of an UpdatePanel
that was causing some errors. So, I began looking for ways to circumvent removing the UpdatePanel
and reading it at a later time. I posted a message out on the ASPAdvice.com lists and received 2 great responses. One was from Mike Campbell who pointed me to the “official” debugging page on AJAX (http://ajax.asp.net/docs/overview/ASPNETAJAXDebuggingAndTracingOverview.aspx). The other was from Wally McClure who pointed out that since the issue was server side, I had two options. First, I could have attached VS.NET to the IIS process on the remote machine (although the machine would have needed Visual Studio Remote Debugging enabled). Or, I could modify the script manager on my site. I opted for the second option. I created a Page\_Init
event on my master page which is where the script manager is located. I then set the SupportsPartialRendering
property to False
. This allowed me to see the server side error messages.
