Local Sitecore 9 install


This is a post of my experience installing Sitecore 9.2 locally.

Make sure you having the following pre-requisites

1. Operating system - Windows server 2016+ or Windows 10 64 bit.
2. Install Solr 7.5.0 locally
3. .NET Core 2.1.7 Windows hosting module 
4. .NET Framework 4.7.2 I use this site to verify and update
5. Turn on Windows IIS and .NET 4.7 features (refer image below)
6. IIS version 10+
7. Microsoft SQL Server 2016 SP2+. Make sure to have a valid username/password to create and manage sitecore databases.

I then installed Sitecore 9.2 by using the new Sitecore Install Assistant (SIA). I downloaded the Sitecore 9.2 graphical setup package for XP single and ran the setup.exe file as an administrator.

I referred to the this blog post for the installation steps.

Make sure to have the following handy before starting the installation:


That's it. Just follow the steps for the installation and you should get a successfully installed message. Then open the following urls to load your local Sitecore site (assuming your Sitecore prefix is SC92).
http://SC92sc.dev.local/
http://SC92sc.dev.local/sitecore



Happy Sitecoreing!

Create Object XML while Debugging in VS

By
 There are times when you put breakpoints in Visual studio and read object values within Visual Studio. This is all good if you are doing some debugging. But if you want to save an object like a Json object in Visual studio there isn't a straightforward way to do that. I found this piece of code that I copied and pasted in the Immediate Window in Visual Studio and was able to save the object as an XML file. (new System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer(YourObject.GetType())).Serialize(new System.IO.StreamWriter(@"c:\tmp\YourObject.xml"), YourObject) Happy Sitecoreing!

Sitecore: Get list of logged in users

By
I had a deployment today and wanted to find a list of users who were logged into the Sitecore admin site. This was mainly so that I can contact them and let them know that a deployment was going to happen. I found the following link very useful as it gave me exactly what I was looking for. A list of users that were logged in and I contacted them. It also has the ability to Kick off users! http://{YourWebsite}/sitecore/client/Applications/LicenseOptions/KickUser Note: You can only see other users in this list if you have the right administrator permission. Logging in with a lower access level user only gave me the logged in user and no one else on the list.
