Exception Handling and Logging Application blocks Enterprise Library 5.0 - configuration

Friends
I want to do some Hands on Enterprise Library 5.0 Exception Handling and Logging Blocks.I am new to it. I would appreciate if you guys could provide me some links to Configuration Console and how to use these blocks.
Thanks
Vivek

The configuration tool is part of the download of Enterprise Library so if you have Enterprise Library you should have it.
Probably your best bet would be to look at the Developer's Guide on MSDN. There are sections on Logging and Exception Handling.
Or if you just wanted to dive right in you can download the Hands-On Labs for Microsoft Enterprise Library 5.0 and work through those.

Deploy Build Servers toolchain using Puppet, Chef or Ansible

We have this issue.
We want to automate the deployment of our Continuous Delivery Build Server Tool chain using a Configuration Management tool such us Puppet, Chef or Ansible.
More precisely we have a bunch of tools (e.g. nuget, NUnit, MSBuild etc) that we use in our Continuous Delivery infrastructure. These tools are deployed to Several Build Servers. Maintaining the configuration of them is time consuming and error prone (i.e. different configuration in different Server resulting is error when building our solution using the Continuous Delivery tools).
We want to automate the maintenance of their configurations and we were thinking to use the Configuration Management tools such us Puppet, Chef or Ansible.
The question is: Are these the right tools for achieving the Configuration Management of our Build Server toolchain?
Anyone having experienced the same issue and how do you solve it?
Thanks in Advance
Alberto
Yes. All of these 3 can help you with that. Which one is better is highly opinion-based.
Yes, convergent configuration management tools such as the ones you listed are a widely used and powerful way to manage servers. The question is still very vague so that's about the best I can say.

Installing DotNetNuke 7 with MySQL and in .Net 3.0 environment?

I just registered a hosting service from www.amhosting.com and they said that the Server support MySQL and .Net 3.0 only while the site I am installing is DNN 7 which is running with MSSQL and .Net 4.0.
So what is the solution for this case?
Could I run DNN 7 in .net 3.0 environment?
or should I downgrade the DNN to lower version that is able to run in .net 3.0?
How to configure the DNN site to run with MySQL?
Thanks a lot.
Cheers,
Timmy
I think you should change your hosting solution.
From what I know DNN7 only works with .NET 4.0 / 4.5
MySql - god forbid, you're in a world of pain. I have heard about attempts to make the DNN Core compatible with MySql... but it's only the Core, and any such projects would be outdated in a matter of months, as DNN does release quite often.
Talking about third party modules, which sooner or later you'll be bound to download from codeplex or buy from Dnn store - forget about. no dnn developer out there provides scripts for mysql.
Good luck!
As Greg states, you won't have an easy time getting DNN working in 2.0 (there was no 3.0, but 3.5 exists) with MYSQL, and you will be limited based on the "provider" for MYSQL.
Go with another hosting company that does Windows Hosting with MSSQL options, there are plenty of them out there for low cost, you'll save a lot more money changing hosting, than you will trying to get mysql working with DNN, and you won't have any upgrade options available to you.

Drupal service module Json Parser

I am using Drupal6 and try to implement Service module here. I also installed json_server, But when i am trying to configure it gives following error. Anybody help me for this.
This is not an error. It's just an informational message.
Note that if you experience problems it might be related to undocumented changes in the latest releases of the Services module. I recently ran into many problems because I was following Services 2.0 example code and there are substantial changes in Services 3.0.

Unity 2.0 for shared application configuration possible?

I'm struggling with trying to create a shared configuration file for a web project and 2 dll projects. From what I can tell StructedMap can be used for configuration settings. Anyone successfully use Unity 2.0 to do the same?
Ended up using a custom configuration. Phil Hack has a great tutorial here.

Is it possible to write code for gnome and then build it to windows?

I want to write a database program and have it built for a windows machine at work. Is that possible to do without much grinding? (so to speak)
Yes, that should be possible. There's a project to bring GTK+ to windows.
You may need this installer if you happen to run a GTK+-based
application and need GTK+ runtime environment to run it. Note that
this installer does not include any development libraries or headers.
If you want to develop/compile GTK+ applications for Win32, download
the dev packages from Tor Lillqvist's pages (see the Links section).
Note, however, that user experience usually deteriorates, the more cross-platform you are.
Use a cross-platform language like:
Python
Java
.Net (Mono)
Or, if you prefer C++, use the Boost libraries: http://www.boost.org/
From the website:
Boost works on almost any modern operating system, including UNIX and
Windows variants. Follow the Getting Started Guide to download and
install Boost. Popular Linux and Unix distributions such as Fedora,
Debian, and NetBSD include pre-built Boost packages. Boost may also
already be available on your organization's internal web server.
Additionally to SimpleCoder's remarks: If it is a program with an UI, make sure that you use an UI toolkit that also is cross-platform or design it in a way that you can use different UI toolkits with the same business layer (a good pattern would be the MVC Pattern).
