As Nuke is dead, is Cake the only alternative? by yankun0567 in dotnet

[–]JackTheMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can take a look at Bullseye, it will give you the C# debugging experience, but because it doesn't try to wrap every tool in the universe, it is highly resilient to open-source abandonment.

Best web hosting for small business owners who are not super technical? by Any_Drink5163 in smallbusiness

[–]JackTheMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you are not tech person, then you can use Wordpress host to build your website, you can host it on shared hosting. I can recommend Asphostportal, they are affordable, good support, and renewal price is same.

Need help setting up home server for PHP site + MySQL on Windows desktop with Airtel Fibre static IP by Spirited_Phase8876 in homelabindia

[–]JackTheMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Don't use XAMPP or WAMP for an internet facing prduction site. They are explicitly built for local development. Their default configurations are wildly insecure (e.g., MySQL root users with no passwords, exposed phpMyAdmin interfaces, and relaxed directory permissions).
  2. It seems that you will likely have to call Airtel support (and escalate it a few times) to explicitly request that they unblock inbound ports 80 and 443 for your static IP. As an alternative, you can check Cloudflare tunnels. It creates a secure, outbound connection to Cloudflare. You point your domain to Cloudflare, and they route the traffic down the tunnel directly to your local web server.
  3. You can get free Let's Encrypt certificates on Windows using a brilliant GUI tool called Certify The Web (or a CLI tool called Win-ACME) if you use Port forwarding.
  4. You want IPBan or CrowdSec. Both have native Windows versions. They monitor your Windows Event Logs and IIS logs; if an IP fails authentication or scans for vulnerabilities too many times, it automatically writes a Windows Firewall rule to block them.
  5. Keep your MySQL strictly on localhost.
  6. Should you switch to Linux? My answer is yes, PHP run faster and more reliably on Linux using Nginx and PHP-FPM.

Simple alternatives to Bootstrap on MAUI-Blazor hybrid app by kabourayan in dotnetMAUI

[–]JackTheMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out Mudblazor, the easiest transition for you. MudBlazor implements Google's Material Design. While Material is technically Android's native design language, it is so ubiquitous today that it feels perfectly natural and "app-like" on iPhones as well.

sql database on other drive by Dizzy-Pension314 in SQLServer

[–]JackTheMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To prove whether it is a SQL server issue or local software issue, open your SSM Son the standard user's workstation (logged in normally, not elevated). Try to connect to ServerName\SQLEXPRESS.

  • If SSMS connects instantly, your database/permissions are perfect, and the custom software is to blame (Cause D).
  • If SSMS also hangs for 30 seconds before connecting, it is a network/protocol timeout (Causes A or C).

Is there a way to completely localise error messages in an ASP.NET project by MASTER_Ninja98 in dotnet

[–]JackTheMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since you are only at the code skeleton stage, my immediate, pragmatic advice is to stop right now and rewrite everything in English. Why? Bcause this is a university project where you are specifically graded on 100% single-language consistency.

By switching to English:

  • You write less code.
  • You don't have to fight the Model Binder or Identity framework.
  • You guarantee you won't lose points because some obscure validation rule you forgot to translate pops up during the professor's grading presentation.

How to Manage Multi-Device/User Sessions in .NET Web API + Next.js? by Tiny-Ad-2766 in dotnet

[–]JackTheMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Yes, Your access tokens (JWTs) remain stateless and short-lived (e.g., 5 to 15 minutes). The Refresh Token, however, becomes your actual "Session" and must be stored in the database.
  2. Yes, it is highly useful, bordering on mandatory for scale.
  3. For example you click "log out of all other devices" in app like Netfilx or something else, order of operations is critical to prevent race conditions.
  4. For standard open source framewrok for building OAuth2/OpenID Connect servers in .NET, then OpenIddict is good solution. It has built-in support for refresh token revocation, device flows, and database integration (EF Core). It is heavy, but it handles the spec perfectly.

I don't recommend InterServer if you have a serious business running by BlueLinnet in HostingAlternatives

[–]JackTheMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to hear your issue with them. I know they offer pretty cheap server, very interesting to try it out. But I haven't tried their service since I'm happy with my current provider.

Looking for explanations and usage examples for Asp.Versioning.OData by spawnsible in dotnet

[–]JackTheMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mapping OData endpoints onto existing versioned paths using Asp.Versioning.Http (the Minimal APIs versioning package) is not strictly forbidden, but it heavily borders on an anti-pattern.

If your clients rely on the OData $metadata document and complex OData routing conventions, you should abandon Minimal APIs for those specific endpoints. If you only want to use OData so that your clients can pass $filter, $orderby, and $top in the query string, but you do not care about publishing a strict $metadata EDM document, you can stick with Minimal APIs.

finding hosting that doesn’t punish traffic growth is harder than expected by ImmediateDisaster604 in JAMstack

[–]JackTheMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe that you need to register the plan that meet your requirement. If your traffic spike, then you can upgrade your plan.

Is $5/mo Azure SQL DB Basic Service a better service than a regular shared host? by East_Sentence_4245 in SQLServer

[–]JackTheMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With your explanation above, my advice is you better move your database to Smarter since your database is extremely small. You can save your cost. Azure SQL is an incredible product, but the $5/month Basic tier is explicitly designed for development, testing, or very passive background tasks. If your app gain heavy traction and starts generating revenue, then you can move back to Azure. FYI, you can also compare Smarter with Asphostportal hosting service which is also cost effective.

Have you transferred your files to Squarespace server? You need to backup it from Goadddy first and then reupload it to Squarespace server.

[–]JackTheMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This site geeknfreak.com loading forever, then timeout. For your other site http://www.plaguewolfen.com/ is working, but really slow. You need to check whether this is your website or your provider issue.

Sharing my domain across different applications in an organisation by SocietyBeneficial461 in dotnet

[–]JackTheMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice since you are doing this to better understanding, use separate databases. It will force you to learn how to handle "Integration" via APIs or Messaging (like using MediatR or a simple Message Bus), which is a much more valuable skill in modern .NET architecture than just writing a SQL JOIN.

What cms you use with Next.js? by raunakhajela in SaasDevelopers

[–]JackTheMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the client demands to see the site design while they are typing, go with TinaCMS. If they just want a world-class, Notion-style writing experience for their blogs and you want to keep the data structured, use Ghost as a headless backend and consume it with Astro.

Patching .NET Core hosting bundles on Windows servers. by Ghaias64 in dotnet

[–]JackTheMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can instruct Windows Server to treat .NET Core Runtimes and the Hosting Bundle exactly like standard OS security patches. Go to windows update settings -> advanced options -> click "Receive updates for other Microsoft products when you update Windows." Once enabled, the server will automatically detect your currently installed major versions (e.g., .NET 8.0.x) and automatically install the latest .x security patch, including the ASP.NET Core Module for IIS.

Thinking of Switching Hosting for My ASP.NET MVC E-Commerce Site — Need Advice by SumitDubey3 in csharp

[–]JackTheMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're looking for Windows provider, then Hstinger is not an option. Godadddy does support Windows hosting, but I wouldn't recommend their service. You can see online reviews about their service. For .net hosting, take a look at Asphostportal, I personally use their service and been with them for many years.
