Recover a corrupted MS SQL database

I have not tried this, use with caution.

There is a manual solution to fix this problem, but you need to have Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio for that. If you have it, you need to follow the steps given below:
  • Open Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio on your system.
  • Now click on New Query button.
  • A new query page will be opened. Write the SQL scripts (shown below) on the page:
                    EXEC sp_resetstatus [YourDatabase]; 
                    ALTER DATABASE [YourDatabase] SET EMERGENCY  
                    DBCC checkdb ([YourDatabase]) 
                    ALTER DATABASE [YourDatabase] SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE 
                    DBCC DATABASE ([YourDatabase], REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS) 
                    ALTER DATABASE [YourDatabase] SET MULTI_USER 
  • Now click on Execute.

Tip to create an underline on a heading shorter than the heading itself

You can use a pseudo element with :before (or :after ): h1 { font - weight : 300 ; display : inline - block ; padding - bottom : 5px ; position : relative ; } h1 : before { content : "" ; position : absolute ; width : 50 %; height : 1px ; bottom : 0 ; left : 25 %; border - bottom : 1px solid red ; } http://jsfiddle.net/9e27b/ This is another solution that centers the heading, the problem here is that the underline gets shorter as the column gets shorter. h2 {   display: inline-block;   padding-bottom: 15px;   position: relative;   width: 100% ;   text-align: center; } h2:before{     content: "";     position: absolute;     width: 8%;     height: 1px;     bottom: 0;     left: 46%;     border-bottom: 1px solid red; }

The web.config no extension mime problem Lets Encrypt on IIS/Windows

  Tip when using LetsEncrypt in Windows - Feature Requests - Let's Encrypt Community Support In a paragraph, just use the web.config file to set the mime type, eg...  After trying to figure out why my Lets Encrypt failed to generate in Windows, and discovering that it's the no extension mime type problem, I wondered whether certbot could fill in the missing gap. All that is needed is the following web.config file to be placed in the same directory as the challenge <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration> <system.webServer> <staticContent> <mimeMap fileExtension="." mimeType="text/xml" /> </staticContent> </system.webServer> </configuration> Because there's no mime type for files without an extension on IIS, IIS sends back a 404 when verification happens. The web.config file above sets the mime type. After I created the .well-known
