Stack overflow is very good. Lots of answers from different areas (not 
necessarily dotnet). I do use it myself, just yesterday I have found there an 
answer after 3 hours of not too successful troubleshooting .. ☺

Indeed I was thinking that in recent weeks. Either .NET is obsolete and no one 
wants to talk about it, or after a decade in the group everyone is now a ninja

I just checked the member could - sitting at 322 active members (i.e. people

Re: payment gateways

2014-04-21 Thread Jiri Kosar
Hi All,

I've been using eway (www.eway.com.au) for couple years now and quite happy 
with it.  Does integrate easily with dotnetnuke  nbstore as well as magento,  
because you can find sample code for it.  I haven't recently compared eway 
pricing with some other gateway,  but few years back it was a good choice if 
you want Australian company without hassle of making your own interface with a 
bank.

I use Pin and its really good – started out with Spreedly in the US which was

eh?

They have a really nice API and billing in USD to your US account – and their 
fees are pretty reasonable. Much better all round experience for a developer 
than eway/paypal

Hi Jorke ,

I've just read your part about eway,  Can you be more specific what you didn't 
like about eway  api?  I'm just curious,  because I haven't found it difficult 
or not working.  I'll have a look at your recommendation.

Thank you
Jiri

RE: Download BizSpark Older Licences Software

2014-01-12 Thread Jiri Kosar
Hi Corneliu,

just an idea, do you have your server backup ? It looks like the key is 
actually stored in registry and the registry is physically a file which you can 
open on another machine using regedt32/import. Maybe you can restore registry 
file, open it and read the key ?

They do it in SQL, but still reading from registry:

Registry file location:

Subject: Download BizSpark Older Licences Software

Morning everyone,

I have a question about downloading licensed software from Microsoft.

We used to be part of the Bizspark program which was very good to us. Part of 
the program we got licences to various software including SQL Server Standard.
Our BizSpark program finished and we exited happily.

However now I just had a hardware failure and I want to reinstall on new 
hardware one of the SQL Servers that was licensed with a BizSpark licence but I 
can't seem to be able to download it any more.
Is this correct? As I understand the licences are perpetual but from what I see 
once you installed it you can't use them any more.

Right?

Thanks,
Corneliu.

it is fine, for last two weeks I'm running server 2012 (with AD, IIS, SQL 2012

In the old days you could put a server OS on you devstation to sun server 
software for development, and configure the UI to look like a desktop. Does 
windows server 2012 still have this facility or is it not worth the bother any 
more.

Most of dev is done on 16Bg + i7 + 2 x Raid 0 SSDs so it's got hunks of power.
