Note: There is no SSL used and in the future the Azure loadbalancer might get replaced by an Application Gateway. I would like to thank the owners (amongst others, I probably missed) of the following blogs for being a more than valuable source of information: https://www.bramstoop.com/posts/2019/09/2019-09-19-sitecore-identity-server-deployment/ Thu, 19 Sep 2019 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.bramstoop.com/posts/2019/09/2019-09-19-sitecore-identity-server-deployment/ BACK TO BLOG OVERVIEW When you run in to the following ERROR while deploying your Sitecore XP solution, and in specific the Identity Server: 8:21:15 PM - Resource Microsoft.Web/sites/siteextensions ‘xxx/AspNetCoreRuntime’ failed with message ‘{ “id”: “/subscriptions/xxx/resourcegroups/xxx/providers/Microsoft.Web/sites/xxx/siteextensions/AspNetCoreRuntime”, “name”: “xxx/AspNetCoreRuntime”, “type”: “Microsoft.Web/sites/siteextensions”, “location”: “West Europe”, “properties”: { “id”: “AspNetCoreRuntime”, “title”: null, “type”: “Gallery”, “summary”: null, “description”: null, “version”: null, “extension_url”: null, “project_url”: null, “icon_url”: null, “license_url”: null, “feed_url”: null, “authors”: null, https://www.bramstoop.com/posts/2019/05/2019-05-16-validate-all-your-sitecore-arm-templates-on-build/ Thu, 16 May 2019 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.bramstoop.com/posts/2019/05/2019-05-16-validate-all-your-sitecore-arm-templates-on-build/ BACK TO BLOG OVERVIEW While working with ARM templates and Azure DevOps it definitely adds value to validate all your Json files during build. This might save you a lot of time. To implement this you could setup the following tasks within your build pipeline: Add a ‘npm’ task within your build and configure it as below: Now add a subsequent Powershell task, run it inline and add the following script: https://www.bramstoop.com/posts/2018/10/2018-10-18-baseline-your-dashboards-using-arm-templates/ Thu, 18 Oct 2018 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.bramstoop.com/posts/2018/10/2018-10-18-baseline-your-dashboards-using-arm-templates/ BACK TO BLOG OVERVIEW In one of my previous posts (click) I mentioned some useful AI query’s for maintaining and managing your Sitecore solution. To make sure every Sitecore solution(s) you are managing will be deployed with a baseline dashboard I added all the query’s to an ARM template. 1.Download the arm template: [code language="powershell”] $url = “https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bstoop-github/public/master/Sitecore/dashboard/deployDashboard.json" $output = “c:\TMP\deployDashboard.json” Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $url -OutFile $output [/code] https://www.bramstoop.com/posts/2018/10/2018-10-16-sitecore-symposium-must-read-takeaways/ Tue, 16 Oct 2018 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.bramstoop.com/posts/2018/10/2018-10-16-sitecore-symposium-must-read-takeaways/ BACK TO BLOG OVERVIEW “Returning from this year’s Sitecore Symposium in Orlando, I would like to share some improved/new insights that have come to me due to attending some great sessions. Some of this blog post will assume you are using a Sitecore on Azure PAAS solution. Most sessions I attended were related to continuous integration, continuous deployment, architectures, scaling, high availability and disaster recovery. The sessions from Bas Lijten, Dennis Weston and Rob Habraken inspired me most and therefore I will elaborate/reflect on most of their content. https://www.bramstoop.com/posts/2018/03/2018-03-27-appsettings-not-present-after-arm-deployment/ Tue, 27 Mar 2018 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.bramstoop.com/posts/2018/03/2018-03-27-appsettings-not-present-after-arm-deployment/ BACK TO BLOG OVERVIEW Within the config section of an App Service you are able to define multiple sections. In this example we are using three sections : web, appsettings and logs. Since we noticed that sometimes the expected settings were not configured/missing after a deployment we figured out some missing dependsOn settings need to be set. Please note that in the ARM snippet below the appsettings depend on the web settings to be processed. https://www.bramstoop.com/posts/2018/03/2018-03-16-sitecore-9-0-1-xcserverconfigurationenvironment-parameter/ Fri, 16 Mar 2018 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.bramstoop.com/posts/2018/03/2018-03-16-sitecore-9-0-1-xcserverconfigurationenvironment-parameter/ BACK TO BLOG OVERVIEW We’re setting up an automated deployment using the Sitecore ARM templates. Doing so we came across the following parameter: xcServerConfigurationEnvironment This variable can contain either “Development” or “Production” and is used in the x-connect and Marketing automation apps. We were wondering what the purpose of this variable is and how this parameter should be configured on the different environments? Answer: I would like to address your question regarding the “xcServerConfigurationEnvironment” parameter.
