MySQL installer hangs

 Hi All,

I faced an issue while installing MySQL installer for Windows 10 which is the installer hangs after 50% progress as below

The solution is to open task manager and go to details of the installer

You'll find two processes for the same installer, one which uses less memory 

Kill this process and the other one should complete the installation immediately (kill it without restarting Windows or doing any other thing)

Hope this helps you

Have a great day :)

.Net Core ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT Variable

If you are working with .Net Core and something wrong has happened and you see the below screen, and need to know the details of the exception

By default, the ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT variable is set to Production to prevent showing sensitive data to end-users

Add the below lines to your web.config to show the details of the error 

<aspNetCore processPath=".\MyApplication.exe" arguments="" stdoutLogEnabled="false" stdoutLogFile=".\logs\stdout">
      <environmentVariables>
        <environmentVariable name="ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT" value="Development" />
      </environmentVariables>
    </aspNetCore>

Error sending email from gmail - p=BadCredentials e23sm4003047wme.35

You may face an issue while sending email from C# using Gmail account
If your code is fine and your Gmail username/password is correct but you still get the below exception in  "client.Authenticate"

gmail p=BadCredentials e23sm4003047wme.35 - gsmtp

Then the problem is in your Gmail account settings, you have to allow less secure app to access your account and use it for sending emails

Go to Gmail settings and search for "Less secure app access" and turn it on, as below screenshot.
