X-UA-Compatible for IE Older Browsers

I have used the X-UA-Compatible before, but I was not aware that by default the compatibility mode goes directly as far back as IE 7 rather than one off from IE 10 to IE 9.

After testing all the code, I clicked on the compatibility option and realize that, all my CSS Div tag float options at wrong positions.

I was a bit horrified that my code is broken even for the one off “IE 9” browser, but than I realize to open up the “Developer Tools” by pressing the “F12” key. It showed me that my default compatibility option is “IE 7” and not “IE 9”.

After researching few pages, testing multiple options, I came to agree on this meta tag. It has to be placed inside the “head” tag, otherwise it may not work well.

Basically I selected it to default to latest browser if possible (“edge”) or one off till it reaches “IE 8 Compatibility Mode”.

I have not tested if the versions needs to be placed from left to right in increment. For me it just makes it easy to update in future, like if I needs to add “IE 10” or “IE 11” in future.

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE8;IE=8;IE=EmulateIE9;IE=9;IE=edge">

Completed UiPath - RPA Developer Advance Training

After a month of training, with late nights and weekends I have completed the UiPath RPA Developer Advance Training. The Level 1 Foundation Training pretty much covered all the basics of Desktop studio and workflows, only draw back was I started with the default foundation course which was for 2016, and all document reference links where pointing to 2016 version. I didn't understand it during the foundation training and kept switching to 2018 version document/page. Only after completing the Foundation course that I realized, I was suppose to have started with the 2018 version of Level 1 Foundation Training, but as it was optional I didn't have to retake the 2018 version, the 2016 was good enough for moving to level 2. The Level 2 Orchestrator 2018.3 Training as good. It gave good understanding of Queue's, Jobs, and schedules and I was able to complete the level two much faster then the level 1. The Level 3 UiPath Advanced Training was bit tough as it involved the a

KB 294807 - IIS Server - PHP FastCGI 500 Error 0xfffffffe

Resolved issue today of IIS Server - PHP FastCGI 500 Error 0xfffffffe by deleting "Windows Temp" folder files. We used Cygwin to customize some permissions of "Windows Temp" folder and after few hours the website stopped working. The search online was giving all kinds of different solution except what I was looking for. I was hoping the stackoverflow will have answers but even this post didn't cover the issue I was running into. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15302080/fastcgi-500-failure Restarting the IIS didn't work, but deleting temp files cleared the issue, but now the problem is how long before the site will go down again? Hope the issue is resolved for ever, if not; I will update this post later.
