Same old file reference in project when 'Add reference' issue

Here is the "STUPID" scenario i came across,Following is the problem i had

Issue
I had one folder in my computer and it had two different version of dlls,My project already had reference of one of the dll,But now i wanted the reference of other dll,I simply deleted the old reference and tried to add new reference of the other file by selecting it,It was added but was showing old version when i tried to see its property ,I tried multiple times with multiple ways but no luck

Solution


First just check out the folder structure i had in my project,Here "Dlls" is the folder from which i wanted to add another file


You can see the "Dlls" folder is included in the project, And thanks to "Mr. Zakir Rana", One of project partner who insisted me to try excluding this folder and adding reference, It sounded foolish to me as its physical folder after all no matter if it is included or not,But i was surprised as soon as i excluded the folder,And it started taking new reference !!!

Why SitecoreAI - Getting into the shoes of the customer how to select right CMS

Hi Team, Lately, I have been talking to lot of our customers / potential customers and having pre-sales demos where one question always comes is "Why Sitecore" ?  Now this question can be for any product which is out for sell. And as a technician I always get into product technical features, but at the same time as a pre-sales guy, it also makes me think, surely all competitive products have same features, so definitely answer to this is not in the technicalities.  If you step back and think, we are also a customer in our daily life and buy lot of things, what is that process we go through? When we buy, how can your customer decide if this is a right fit for you or not, why we select A over B? Is it price? is it service? Is it a brand? Is it about features? Is it about brand loyalty?  When it is a technical product, I am sure it cannot start with the technicalities of the product or selecting product itself, 100% not, I feel decision is always business strategy first and ...

Hello Friends, I belive this blog post is very important for everyone because, It has some very serious effect on working of your headless website, i will share my experience what we faced and how we resolved it Issue we started facing Our site started giving "Key cannot be null or empty" with YSOD like following  Side affect Because of this 500 error, Our site pages were showing 500 custom error page intermittently and our MAU (Monthly Active User) drop rate increased. Sitecore KB There is already Sitecore KB article talking about this error but the patch which is provided on this link is confusing as well as very huge and it could bring other issues along with it as that upgrade patch also has lot of other things too which i did not want to introduce in our stable CMS.

Zero to Hero - A real life RCA of exact issue in Sitecore Managed Cloud environment

Hello All, The purpose of today's post is to share a real life burning and escalated scenario which was new to me and how did I approach it and how big the escalations were and what was the outcome Sitecore's goodwill was at stack not because Sitecore is not capable of handling it but just because our environment was Sitecore Managed Cloud, and any issue that comes if its infra, back end code, front end code will be first pointed as Sitecore issue and that is where our consultancy and experience will play a role to prove that it is not Sitecore issue.  Issue we faced Out of the blue our site started giving "504 Gateway Time-out", and it was reported that almost everyone is getting this error, but when we used to browse the site, everything looked good and never 504. 504 Gateway Time-out error tells that, That the request went to Content Delivery servers of Sitecore from gateway, but gateway did not get response in time from those CDs and hence it gave time out error. ...
