    Today, we got a service request that our customer faced the following error message connecting to the database: (pyodbc.OperationalError) ('08S01', '[08S01] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server]TCP Provider: Error code 0x68 (104) (SQLExecDirectW)'). This customer is using Python in a Linux environment. Following I would like to share my lessons learned about this error message. Checking what does mean 0x68 is 104 in decimal, and that is a Connection Reset by Peer error (i.e. the server abruptly closed the connection) and in Linux errors are listed here: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/include/uapi/asm-generic/errno.h Most probably, this …

In In PostgreSQL 11 , PROCEDURE was added as a new schema object which is a similar object to FUNCTION, but without a return value. Once compiled, they become a schema object which can be executed or referenced by multiple applications.

    You might have read it in our recent breaking change bundle last week. Before going Generally Available (GA) in a few weeks, we have indeed enacted a breaking change on the Cosmos DB data connection: it now requires the managed identity (either system or user) assigned to the data connection to have Cosmos DB Account Reader Role (Control Plane role) on the Cosmos DB account. Now before you read any further, this doesn't actually break existing data connection as we explain in more details below. Since we released the public preview in January, we required Cosmos DB Built-in Data Reader (Data Plane role). That role allowed Kusto to read the Cosmos DB…

    Hello! My name is Nandan Sheth, and I am a part of Microsoft’s Customer Success Unit based out of Dublin, Ireland. I have been helping customers set up the Cloud Management Gateway for a few years now, but recently an organization with 40000+ users asked me a question that I haven’t given much thought to. When you set up the Cloud Management Gateway using a Virtual Machine Scale Set, one of the resources created in Azure is the Network Security Group. The Network Security Group has an inbound rule for port 8443. Why is this rule created and what is it needed for? Figure 1: Network Security Group showing the inbound rule for port 8443.

    Background introduction When a Function App is added as an API in APIM, there are some authorization details we need to consider while communicating from APIM to the backend function app. It does not matter what Authorization level (function or anonymous) the function app has configured, APIM will always attach a function host key to the request. The host key is attached to the request as a header. However, we may experiment unauthorized errors even though the function host key is present in the request header. So, this article is focused on analyzing one of those scenarios when communication between APIM and backend function app is truncated due to unauthorized …

    We've encountered a few support cases where customers, usually after some time, have an ASP.NET Core application hosted in IIS in-process that starts returning this "HTTP 503 Server has been shutdown" status. In all these cases a restart of the application was needed to temporarily resolve the issue until it happens again, typically a few clicks around the application later or within 10-15 minutes. This post details the most likely cause of that problem and how to fix it. As of the time of this writing I have come across 5 cases where this 503 issue was occurring. In 100% of those cases, the problem was redundant code. There were a few different ways of triggering …

    Service-Based Architectures provide a modular framework from which common applications can be deployed using components from various sources and suppliers. The 3GPP defines a Service-Based Architecture (SBA) in which the control plane functionality and common data repositories of a 5G network are delivered through a set of interconnected Network Functions (NFs), with each NF authorized to access the services of other NFs. Assuming the role of either service consumer or service producer, Network Functions are self-contained, independent, and reusable. Each Network Function service exposes its functionality through a Service-Based Interface (SBI), which employs a wel…

    Last month, Authenticator Lite (in Outlook) moved to public preview, bringing the security and reliability of Microsoft Authenticator to an app users already have on their phones.
