WP7: Omnia 7 Zune Connection Error

by | Jul 9, 2011 | BizTalk Community Blogs via Syndication

Folks,

Finally cracked it!!! ohh how long has this been bugging me.

Basically when I connected my wp7 omnia 7 phone old Zune would complain with

CONNECTION ERROR
Can’t connect to your phone. Disconnect it, restart it, then try connecting again.

I tried a whole series of options from download new wp7 drivers, changing usb ports,
trying everything.

An interesting piece was that my Windows 7 PC detected the device, it was just Zune
complaining.

After checking the EventLogs, I noticed crypto errors everytime I connected my phone.

The Fix:

1. Close Zune

2. Go into Certificate manager and delete the ’Zune-tuner’ (named) certificate(s).

3. Re-Open Zune

4. Connect phone.

Finally

Originally it was 40% flat, now we split them into 20% for support and 20% for software assurance. We also reduced the non-production testing environment prices from 40% to 25%. More details can be found here.

For the last few weeks we were working on V2.0 of BizTalk360. One of the core features in V2.0 is Azure AppFabric service bus integration. This will allow customers to remotely support and manage their Microsoft BizTalk? server environment. You can watch it in action here http://demo.biztalk360.com

New Webcast on AppFabric Caching

by | Jul 4, 2011 | BizTalk Community Blogs via Syndication

It’s cool when you have to use a map of the world to show how your application is deployed. I’ve added a webcast on AppFabric Caching using a very distributed application. The application is tested in Stockholm Sweden with the database located in South East Asia, and the Cache in South-central US. The application is then deployed to the South-central US data center, accessing the database in South East Asia.
The point of all this is to show how the AppFabric cache can be used to reduce latency in cloud-based applications. As you are often billed on how much you access the data Caching can also reduce hosing costs.
This is the third in a series of webcasts looking at the June CTP of Windows Azure AppFabric. You can find them here.
