Sometimes I’m a smart guy. Then there’s other times. I’ll let you be the judge of which time that is. I’ve been doing docker for my local environment for a while. Enough to simplify the process and find something that works for me and for the dev team here. One of my devs, however has…
Cannot find module ‘react-dom/server’
I was working on a new project this week and starting with JSS 20. This wasn’t a NextJS project, unfortunately, so it was going to be a webpack kind of day. Make that two days. Ok, it was more..but whatever..read the post. Anywho, I popped open my server.bundle.js file, which had been deployed to my…
No Processes Listed when Debugging Docker Container
It’s no secret I’m a big fan of working with Docker on a local developer environment. The ability to quickly spin up a project and spin it down, the lack of 18 versions of solr running in conflict, the way docker just thrashes my concept of “I have plenty of Hard Drive to work”… It’s…
‘globalThis is not defined’ in JSS Site
We recently pushed out an update to our JSS project and were greeted with one of those “Well that’s fun, we’ve never seen that error before” moments. Here’s the entire text of the YSOD, for SEO purposes 😉 [NodeInvocationException: globalThis is not defined ReferenceError: globalThis is not defined at react.Component.react.Component.LayoutServiceBase (C:\home\site\wwwroot\dist\[SNIP]\server.bundle.js:76193:63) at C:\home\site\wwwroot\dist\[SNIP]\server.bundle.js:80869:3 at Object.<anonymous>…
Windows Hosts Writer v 2.0
It’s been quite a while since WHW has received an update. Michael West (yes, that Michael West) has been gracious enough to get things up to speed with the latest version of dotnet core, docker, and even made a few enhancements. I’m not going to regurgitate it here, as you can read about all the…
AKS Quality of Life: Warming your Containers in k8s
UPDATE: I totally forgot to put the source code link in here! https://github.com/RAhnemann/Container-Warmer If you’ve been around the docker block a little bit with Sitecore, you know by now that when a container is launched, it’s not really ready to do anything. It’s barely alive. In fact, Docker and k8s know this, and have a…
Troubleshooting SSO and Azure AD Groups
We’re currently in the middle of an upgrade project and one of the new requirements was to add in Azure AD for Single Sign On. This is relatively easy, given you just have to update a single config file in Identity Server (And configure AD, but that’s not my job!). You can read all about…
Migrating from Docker Desktop
If you’re reading this, you’re probably aware that there’s some changes coming to Docker Desktop. Notably, it’s not going to be free to use for companies that make over $10M or have over 250 employees. This isn’t a nail in the coffin for docker on your desktop, however. Most docker users on windows usually are…
Securing your Connection Strings with Key Vault
I’ll start off that this entry isn’t inherently specific to Sitecore. It’s more of an Azure exercise in Principle of Least Privilege (PLP). So, let’s talk about a couple baselines here: What’s Azure Key Vault? Azure Key Vault is a service/product offered within Azure. It allows for the storage of Key, Secrets and Certificates. Each…
Recovering your CM From a Solr Hiccup
We’ve all been there before. Sometimes Solr does something funky and you end up with this on your Index Rebuild screen: What happened? Probably some sort of hiccup with solr. Once Sitecore loses connectivity though, it usually takes a restart in order for things to come back together. I did a little digging into how…
