Description

This error arises when the system date is not correct.

· Run the following query in SSODB database.

select dateadd(m,-1,ec_timestamp),* from SSODB..SSOX_ExternalCredentials
where datediff(m,ec_timestamp,getdate())<>0

select dateadd(year,-1,ec_timestamp),* from SSODB..SSOX_ExternalCredentials
where datediff(year,ec_timestamp,getdate())<>0

· If any rows are retrieved then there has been some changes in the system date. Run the following query in case any rows are retrieved in the first case.

update SSODB..SSOX_ExternalCredentials set ec_timestamp = dateadd(m,-1,ec_timestamp) where datediff(m,ec_timestamp,getdate())<>0

update SSODB..SSOX_ExternalCredentials set ec_timestamp = dateadd(year,-1,ec_timestamp) where datediff(year,ec_timestamp,getdate())<>0

· Now restart Host Instances and continue with the application.

For sending mail from SQL u need to do 3 steps
1)Enable the SQL to send mail
2)Configure the Account and mail server details
3)Send mail

Step 1: Enabling the SQL to send mail
What i like about sql is it gives query to do everything no need to go for searching the option where its these in which menu and all
so here is the query to enable
--=======Enabling the SQL to send mail==============
use master
go
sp_configure 'show advanced options',1
go
reconfigure with override
go
sp_configure 'Database Mail XPs',1
--go
--sp_configure 'SQL Mail XPs',0
go
reconfigure
go

Step 2 Configuring the mail account
Once again some bunch of query
--========Add the account====
EXECUTE msdb.dbo.sysmail_add_account_sp
@account_name = 'BtAdmin', ---Account Name
@description = 'Mail account for Database Mail For BizTalk', --Short Note
@email_address = 'abc@gmail.com', --Mail Address to display /From address
@display_name = 'TIG Btadmin', --Display name in the mail header
@username='mdhusenm@BlastAsia.com', --User Name for login to mail server
@password='abcd', --Passwod for account
@mailserver_name = 'smtpout.secureserver.net' --SMTP mail server

-================Add the Profile===============
EXECUTE msdb.dbo.sysmail_add_profile_sp
@profile_name = 'BtAdminProfile', --Profile Name
@description = 'BizTalk Profile used for database mail' --Short Note

--================Connect Account To profile=============
EXECUTE msdb.dbo.sysmail_add_profileaccount_sp
@profile_name = 'BtAdminProfile',
@account_name = 'BtAdmin',
@sequence_number = 1
--=====================Enable Profile to send==========
EXECUTE msdb.dbo.sysmail_add_principalprofile_sp
@profile_name = 'BtAdminProfile',
@principal_name = 'public',
@is_default = 1 ;

Step 3: Send mail
Use the SP msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail to send mails
declare @body1 varchar(100)
set @body1 = 'Html body''EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
@recipients='mdhusenm@BlastAsia.com', ------To mail address
@subject = 'My Mail Test', ------Subject Of mail
@body = @body1, ------Body of mail
@body_format = 'HTML' -----Formate of mail body HTML means the body will be displayed as HTML see my mail body it will display HTML

Remember Step 1 & 2 are only one time activity

You can test this by giving SMTP as Gmail SMTP if its not blocked in ur company or just use company ID

Shelving in TFS

Greetings All

Shelving is one of the improvement and important feature in the TFS compared to old VSS.I have stated here how to use this feature and benefits of shelving



Problem:-

When you have task to work on more than one day you cannot check-in that file in the in progress status as it might get the error while others do get latest/ when we do the release of code to production and test server. Checking in progress (half done task) file creates more issue. But keeping the file without check-in is the risk we are taking on our work in which we may lose the data



Solution

Shelving is the solution for the above stated problem. When u shelve a file it will maintain the file in source safe but when other do get latest/ when we release the code the shelve file is not considered and will be taken only the checked in files



Benefits

Benefit of shelving is the using of source safe without affecting other team member and release work.

You can shelve and pass the code to other for review instead of check in which will ensure the file is not released until review has been done



Using

Using shelving is same as the check-in you just need to right click on file and say shelve and when u are working once again on that u can say Unshelve



Hope the information was useful
