I'm facing a critical issue right now in Romania. So for almost 24 hours my mobile app which is using Firebase Realtime Database can't be used on some ISPs (like Vodafone, DIGI or Telekom) if you are using mobile data (4G or 5G) the app is working fine, but on Wi-fi (on these ISPs the app is getting timeout). I talked like several hours on the phone with multiple ISPs and the Firebase support (right now the app is working using DIGI, but nobody knows why). The ISPs are saying that problem is not on their end and Firebase is saying that the problem is on the ISP side. Firebase support answer:

As this has been caused by network issues, rather than Google's infrastructure, we can't do much about it from our end. I would recommend that you contact the ISP provider directly as they will be able to check deeper on their side.

As far as we can see, the multiple providers are affected by that issue. Our engineering team is already aware of that and looking for solutions. Like I said before, there is nothing we could do with the providers, but our engineers would find any suitable workaround.

So my question is: what can I do? (I saw that Firebase realtime database deployed in europe-west works) but mine is already on united states.

Is there someone having troubles like me? I tested multiple apps which I know are using Firebase and they are having the same issues, the app being unreachable over this type of network.

Updates on the issue:

So the problem is regarding Ukraine and Russia :(. Many apps using Firebase Realtime Database are not working right now.

Below I posted a fix for this and how I handled in order to make my app functional again

I'm working on a Terraform project that will set up all the GCP resources needed for a large project spanning multiple GitHub repos. My goal is to be able to recreate the cloud infrastructure from scratch completely with Terraform.

The issue I'm running into is in order to setup build triggers with Terraform within GCP, the GitHub repo that is setting off the trigger first needs to be connected. Currently, I've only been able to do that manually via the Google Cloud Build dashboard. I'm not sure if this is possible via Terraform or with a script but I'm looking for any solution I can automate this with. Once the projects are connected updating everything with Terraform is working fine.

TLDR; How can I programmatically connect a GitHub project with a GCP project instead of using the dashboard?

hope you all are doing well

I'm facing some problems on testing my Spring Boot application. I created a simple API (currently has only one method, and it's working) and I created the domain tests disabling JPA configurations. When I test with JPA disabled, the tests provide the following error:

I've been trying to get over this but I'm out of ideas for now hence I'm posting the question here.

I'm experimenting with the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and I wanted to create a Kubernetes cluster which exposes some service.

The goal is:

• A running managed Kubernetes cluster (OKE)
• 2 nodes at least
• 1 service that's accessible for external parties

The infra looks the following:

• A VCN for the whole thing
• A private subnet on 10.0.1.0/24
• A public subnet on 10.0.0.0/24
• NAT gateway for the private subnet
• Internet gateway for the public subnet
• Service gateway
• The corresponding security lists for both subnets which I won't share right now unless somebody asks for it
• A containerengine K8S (OKE) cluster in the VCN with public Kubernetes API enabled
• A node pool for the K8S cluster with 2 availability domains and with 2 instances right now. The instances are ARM machines with 1 OCPU and 6GB RAM running Oracle-Linux-7.9-aarch64-2021.12.08-0 images.
• A namespace in the K8S cluster (call it staging for now)
• A deployment which refers to a custom NextJS application serving traffic on port 3000

And now it's the point where I want to expose the service running on port 3000.

I have 2 obvious choices:

• Create a LoadBalancer service in K8S which will spawn a classic Load Balancer in OCI, set up it's listener and set up the backendset referring to the 2 nodes in the cluster, plus it adjusts the subnet security lists to make sure traffic can flow
• Create a Network Load Balancer in OCI and create a NodePort on K8S and manually configure the NLB to the ~same settings as the classic Load Balancer

The first one works perfectly fine but I want to use this cluster with minimal costs so I decided to experiment with option 2, the NLB since it's way cheaper (zero cost).

Long story short, everything works and I can access the NextJS app on the IP of the NLB most of the time but sometimes I couldn't. I decided to look it up what's going on and turned out the NodePort that I exposed in the cluster isn't working how I'd imagine.

The service behind the NodePort is only accessible on the Node that's running the pod in K8S. Assume NodeA is running the service and NodeB is just there chilling. If I try to hit the service on NodeA, everything is fine. But when I try to do the same on NodeB, I don't get a response at all.

That's my problem and I couldn't figure out what could be the issue.

What I've tried so far:

• Switching from ARM machines to AMD ones - no change
• Created a bastion host in the public subnet to test which nodes are responding to requests. Turned out only the node responds that's running the pod.
• Created a regular LoadBalancer in K8S with the same config as the NodePort (in this case OCI will create a classic Load Balancer), that works perfectly
• Tried upgrading to Oracle 8.4 images for the K8S nodes, didn't fix it
• Ran the Node Doctor on the nodes, everything is fine
• Checked the logs of kube-proxy, kube-flannel, core-dns, no error
• Since the cluster consists of 2 nodes, I gave it a try and added one more node and the service was not accessible on the new node either
• Recreated the cluster from scratch

Edit: Some update. I've tried to use a DaemonSet instead of a regular Deployment for the pod to ensure that as a temporary solution, all nodes are running at least one instance of the pod and surprise. The node that was previously not responding to requests on that specific port, it still does not, even though a pod is running on it.

Edit2: Originally I was running the latest K8S version for the cluster (v1.21.5) and I tried downgrading to v1.20.11 and unfortunately the issue is still present.

Edit3: Checked if the NodePort is open on the node that's not responding and it is, at least kube-proxy is listening on it.

I'm trying to implement the tracker-enabled-dbcontext package from the documentaion and tracker-enabled-dbcontext git repository But I'm unable to change save changes to target a different database. I've modified my SaveChanges

I have a console application project where i'm using the powershell SDK, it works perfectly fine in debug but on release, everything except powershell works.

The only settings i've found where it works is when releasing the project as framework dependent and portable. Or at least it works on my pc, on other computers it says the dotnet runtime is missing, even when installed via the link provided.

Using self contained, .net6-windows and win-x86 doesn't work. Not quite sure what could be wrong? I've tried cleaning the project, the solution, restarting visual studio and my PC. Everything works as expected in debug but when I publish, powershell just doesn't work.

One of configuration's in infrastructure layer

CustomerManagementConfigure.cs

I'm running a simple Django application without any complicated setup (most of the default, Django allauth & Django Rest Framework).

The infrastructure for running both locally and remotely is in a docker-compose file:

I have many test classes, and each has dozens of tests. I want to isolate tests, so instead of a mega context MyDbContext, I use MyDbContextToTestFoo, MyDbContextToTestBar, MyDbContextToTestBaz, etc. So I have MANY DbContext subclasses.

In my unit tests with EF Core 5 I'm running into the ManyServiceProvidersCreatedWarning. They work individually, but many fail when run as a group:

System.InvalidOperationException : An error was generated for warning 'Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Infrastructure.ManyServiceProvidersCreatedWarning': More than twenty 'IServiceProvider' instances have been created for internal use by Entity Framework. This is commonly caused by injection of a new singleton service instance into every DbContext instance. For example, calling 'UseLoggerFactory' passing in a new instance each time--see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=869049 for more details. This may lead to performance issues, consider reviewing calls on 'DbContextOptionsBuilder' that may require new service providers to be built. This exception can be suppressed or logged by passing event ID 'CoreEventId.ManyServiceProvidersCreatedWarning' to the 'ConfigureWarnings' method in 'DbContext.OnConfiguring' or 'AddDbContext'.

I don't do anything weird with DbContextOptionsBuilder as that error suggests. I don't know how to diagnose "...that may require new service providers to be built". In most tests I create a context normally: new DbContextOptionsBuilder().UseSqlite("DataSource=:memory:") where TContext is one of the context types I mentioned above.

I've read many issues on the repo, and discovered that EF does heavy caching of all sorts of things, but docs on that topic don't exist. The recommendation is to "find what causes so many service providers to be cached", but I don't know what to look for.

There are two workarounds:

• builder.EnableServiceProviderCaching(false) which is apparently very bad for perf
• builder.ConfigureWarnings(x => x.Ignore(CoreEventId.ManyServiceProvidersCreatedWarning)) which ignores the problem

I assume that "service provider" means EF's internal IoC container.

What I want to know is: does the fact that I have many DbContext types (and thus IModel types), affect service provider caching? Are the two related? (I know EF caches an IModel for every DbContext, does it also cache a service provider for each one?)
