Here and another one. First blogged here.

So you do some DBA work and one day realised that the worst has come true - the replication is just so broken you have to start all over. Usually there is always some kind of ground level when working with computers. If a program is badly broken try reinstalling it. If that does not work try reinstalling the OS maybe. If that does not work buy a new computer etc.

I had this situation on a system I am playing DBA on. Slony-I was badly broken so I had to restart from scratch. My ground zero was to drop the database and start over... But... what if you can't???

This is happening even today, but still so true...

If you look to the top right of this page, you will see a new section titled Links. In there I will regularly place new links of various content. Feel free to explore the content.

I do not have words to describe my amazement at the image quality my new Canon 1Ds Mark III camera produces. I just printed picture 10 of my new quick gallery on Epson's Archival Matte Super A3 paper. The sharpness is just breathtaking. I can place a grass blade on top of the one in the photo, and you will not be able to decide which one is sharper or more real.

Enjoy the quick gallery - I spent the afternoon taking some macro shots of things in my garden, and the results speak for themselves. Enjoy!

I recently installed Resharper 3.0.2 for VS2008. I found that many of my OnClick etc. handlers were marked as errors as the symbols could supposedly not be found. The project compiles fine though. IntelliSense also stopped working properly on many symbols.

After lots of searching I found the cause of the problem - since this issue remained even when I reverted back to VS2005.

The essence of the problem is that VS2008 sometimes adds this to your web.config file:

<controls>
..
<add tagPrefix="asp" namespace="System.Web.UI.WebControls" assembly="System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0., Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />

..
</controls>


To solve the problem change the tag prefix asp to something else like aspajax.
