Don’t retaliate to a backstabber. Picking a fight with backstabbing coworkers is the worst thing you can do. By stooping to their level, you will be perpetuating the drama. If one of them has the nerve to talk to you directly instead of just gossiping behind your back, don’t give them anything to use against you when they return to their gossiping mates. Maintain eye contact, speak in a level tone and then excuse yourself politely by saying you have a deadline. They will walk away with nothing and you’ll have scored an emotional victory for yourself.

In their infinite wisdom, Microsoft decided to remove the ‘sign in as another user‘ option from the UI. For consultants and developers who need to test their solutions in an ongoing manner, user accounts need to be switched in order to test the myriad of permission issues sometimes experienced by users.
After some extensive research I have found a solution:
Simply append the following behind your URL – /_layouts/closeConnection.aspx?loginasanotheruser=true
e.g http://yoursite/_layouts/closeConnection.aspx?loginasanotheruser=true

My fresh installation of MS SQLSERVER 2014 in Windows Server 2012 was not successful due to the error mentioned in the title of this post. Its resolution is presented below:
- I remove the SQLSERVER 2014 installation using the Control Panel ->Programs -> Uninstall Program.
- I did a fresh install by running the Setup as an Administrator.
- In the Server Configuration page after launching the setup and providing necessary details, I used NT Authority\SYSTEM  as startup account for Database Engine services.

Recommendations are sometimes misconstrued as corrections when someone wanted to convey the importance of achieving excellence. Let us consider someone’s suggestion positively even if we don’t want to hear it as long as it gives quality to our work. At the end, we are the ones who get the benefits of it.

I used a master on pages of my ASP.NET application. CSS and Script files were used in the master using a reference lines as:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css" runat="server" />
<script src="js/jquery.min.js"></script>
It works on pages on same root where the CSS and Script folders are located but it never worked in another pages which are located in other folders. I resolved this issue by changing the references as follows:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="~/css/style.css" runat="server" />
<script src=’<%# ResolveUrl("~/js/jquery.min.js")%>’ type="text/javascript"></script>
There’s a line in script that I changed as well to ensure that the file is linked correctly.
