Drag/Drop registration did not succeed - vb.net

I've already looked up this problem and everything I've have found was referring to C# which might be similar to VB.NET in some cases but I couldn't figure out how to use these solutions in VB.net.
So, my problem is that I got that one machine (end-user) with Windows 7 Professional (x64) which throws this error:
System.InvalidOperationException: Nie można zarejestrować elementu
DragDrop. ---> System.Threading.ThreadStateException: Bieżący wątek

zaznaczony element STAThreadAttribute.

w System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m)
w System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam)
As part of it is in Polish I will explain it a bit. Basically in the beginning it says
System.InvalidOperationException: DragDrop registration did not
succeed
and as far as I understand it there is some problem with Drag/Drop option in some DataGridView.
My guess is that it happens when running delegate which checks for notifications because that exception is shown on main form start (a bit after starting delegate) and it shows again after some time when the delegate runs again. I checked all forms which are open by this delegate and none of them has AllowDrop enabled for any control. However I'm using DragDrop in other forms which doesn't throw this exception.
My other guess is that it might be a problem on end-user's machine (not the program's problem) as that exception is never thrown on other hosts (most of them are Windows 10 x64, Pro and Home, and one Windows 7 x86 Professional). I use one install file for all those machines.
Other than that I've tried remote debugging with Visual Studio 2013 on that problematic host and that Exception was never thrown. It is only thrown when application is installed (which btw I tried reinstalling).
Any idea how can I get rid of that error?

My.Computer.Info.OSFullName causes a System.Exception

In my VB.NET app using .NET Framework 4.5 I have this line of code:
ThisOS.Text = My.Computer.Info.OSFullName
It has been working as expected without problems. Suddenly yesterday a client using 9 x Windows 10 machines reports an unhandled exception on 2 of them which caused the entire app the crash. After much error trapping, recompiling, uploading and installing I eventually pinpointed that line of code as the source of the exception. I changed the code as below and the problem was solved.
' this causes an exception on some computers
Try
ThisOS.Text = My.Computer.Info.OSFullName
Catch ex As Exception
ThisOS.Text = "Unknown OS"
End Try
Does anybody know why this happens? I'd like to be able to fix the root cause instead of just catching the error. Exception detail:
System.Exception: Exception of type 'System.Exception' was thrown.

I suggested to reset Windows.
Fortunately it is a documented bug, install WMI to fix it:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/visual-basic/misc/could-not-obtain-full-operation-system-name-due-to-internal-error
A call to the My.Computer.Info.OSFullName property failed. A possible
cause for this failure is if Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI)
is not installed on the current computer.
To correct this error Add a Try...Catch block around the call to the
My.Computer.Info.OSFullName property.
For more information about WMI and how to install it, go to and search
for "Windows Management Instrumentation Core".
OP mentioned:

FluentAssertions throws ArgumentOutOfRangeException when assertion fails (possibly NCrunch related)

I'm using FluentAssertions 5.3.0 run under NCrunch 3.14.0.1. When a test fails, I often seen this error as FluentAssertions tries to generate a report message...
System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: startIndex cannot be larger than
length of string. Parameter name: startIndex at
System.String.Substring(Int32 startIndex, Int32 length) at
FluentAssertions.CallerIdentifier.ExtractVariableNameFrom(StackFrame
frame) at
FluentAssertions.CallerIdentifier.DetermineCallerIdentity() at
FluentAssertions.Execution.AssertionScope.GetIdentifier() at
FluentAssertions.Execution.AssertionScope.FailWith(String message,
Object[] args) at FluentAssertions.Numeric.NumericAssertions`1.Be(T
expected, String because, Object[] becauseArgs) at
TableTests.ConsolidatedMovementsTester.AlternativingMovementStatesAreRecognised()
in ...test.cs
The error is sporadic - often it will disappear if the test is rerun (in which case, a proper error report is shown). I've seen this in the last couple of versions of both FluentAssertions and NCrunch and it appears on multiple machines (all running some flavour of Visual Studio 2017 Professional).
Here's an example of the latest call to bite me...
results.Count(c => c.IsStationary).Should().Be(5);
where results is an ImmutableArray of POCOs
In this case, right-clicking on the failing test and selecting "rerun in new test runner" in the ncrunch window, caused the test to re-run and FA to emit the correct report.
Can anyone suggest a workaround for this?

VB.NET issue connecting to Oracle 11g

OS: Windows 7 64bit
VB: Visual Studio 2010
Oracle Client: 11g
I am developing an application that connects to an Oracle 11g server. I am able to connect to the Oracle server via Oracle SQL Developer, ODBC (in SYSWOW64), and in VB Server Explorer.
I am using the .NET reference Oracle.DataAccess located at: C:\Oracle\product\11.2.0\client_32\ODP.NET\bin\2.x\Oracle.DataAccess.dll
I have tried adding the .DLL files to my bin folder as suggested by other questions and that does not work.
Does anyone have any other suggestions?
When I run my application, I get the following:

I feel your pain, just went through something similar in a deployment situation. You probably have multiple clients installed, and your environment is pulling dlls for older releases (even if you have a latest oracle.dataaccess.dll correctly referenced in your project). Fixing this on your dev environment is one thing, a prod deployment server is another. Not sure what your deployment situation is, but here's what worked for me.
After struggling with trying to upgrade odp.net in existing oracle home, adding new oracle home, etc., I found the easiest way to fix everything is to download the latest odac with xcopy deployment from Oracle, and follow the readme (and see here for an older article on this also). Basically you'll run an install.bat file to setup locally (in separate folder, mine was c:\oracle_odac), then change your project reference to point to the oracle.dataaccess.dll in this new folder (I used 4 instead of 2.x), and add the new folder's bin dirs to front of your path (c:\oracle_odac\bin and c:\oracle_odac\odp.net\bin\4). On your deployment server, you'll just need to copy the entire c:\oracle_odac folder over (via xcopy or however), and setup the path.
That said, I anxiously await the production release of the fully managed odp.net from Oracle (in beta now).
EDIT: Just to add that you can avoid messing with PATHs if you setup in your app or web config file the dllpath. For example:
<configuration>
...
<configSections>
<section name="oracle.dataaccess.client" type="System.Data.Common.DbProviderConfigurationHandler, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089"/>
...
<oracle.dataaccess.client>
<settings>
<add name="DllPath" value="c:\oracle_odac\bin"/>
</settings>
</oracle.dataaccess.client>
...
This will override other settings such as registry or machine.config. And it will allow multiple odp.net configurations to exists peacefully, and allow each app to point to the version it needs on the same server.
Usually happens when you're building x64 application which is trying to pick up x32 drivers that doesn't really work.
What you do in this case (and it's quite painful):
Install x32 oracle client to oraclehome1
Install x64 oracle client to oraclehome2
Make sure your application build (x64, x32) is pointed to correct oraclehome. I don't have that code handy, but I believe it is something along the lines of "Home=oraclehome2" in the connection string or similar.
I removed all of the oracle clients that were available in the 'Programs' section of 'Control Panel'. Then I went into the registry searched for 'Oracle' and removed all instances/references of Oracle client(s). After 3 hours of registry removal and a reboot, I installed the 11g client and everything worked as expected.
Note: when searching the registry for "Oracle", there may be references to the VB version of Oracle, or a reference to Crytsal Reports driver for 'Oracle'. I did not remove these. So pay attention to the file location and/or the syntax of the registry item you are deleting.
/Reading. It works.
download ODAC 32/ ODAC 64 bit ,depending upon on the compatibility of OS, VS and oracle 11g .
Use oracle 11g 32,os 32 bit,oracle 32 bit or oracle 64 bit,os 64 bit and oracle 11g 64 bit.
In my experience, after trying tbone's suggestion, playing with PATH env variable and other unsuccessful plays, the solution that worked immediately was to save a copy of the 8 DLLs files listed below RIGHT ON THE SAME FOLDER of the vb.net executable, and then add a reference to Oracle.DataAccess.dll in the same folder.

e.g.: [C:\Users\Legarcia\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\LabRetention\LabRetention\bin\Debug]
And when releasing the application for the users just copy the DLLs to the same dir of your EXE
This seems to isolate all other Ora client installations.
The connection string used in the VB.net app is created from the info in TNSNAMES.ORA file found on some other client directory.

NServicebus : {WARN} failed raising transport message with ID =

Here's the scenario.
I am on NServiceBus 3.0.0.1504 (core dll version). I get above warning message when there's an exception on one of the handlers. Queues are setup as DTC. The interesting thing is, though I get this warning message in QA - it successfully retries N number of times and places the message in the error queue. However, in Production, (in few cases - I haven't seen this happening consistently), it just tries processing the message once and it stops. It didn't put the message in the error queue or neither it retired N Number of times nor it put the message back in the queue.
I don't really see the difference between QA and Prod environment, its the same code base, and we give permission to queues using build scripts.
Here's the stack trace
NServiceBus.Unicast.Transport.Transactional.TransactionalTransport - Failed raising 'transport message received' event for message with ID=1fb282b5-7a9e-41ea-834a-5f6767273324\195311762 NServiceBus.Unicast.Transport.TransportMessageHandlingFailedException: Exception of type 'NServiceBus.Unicast.Transport.TransportMessageHandlingFailedException' was thrown.

I tried dropping the same message in QA to test the scenario, however, QA seems to work (with the warning exception log).
Questions
1) Why would this exception happen? Has anyone seen in their system? Why is it logged only as a WARN? I looked at the code and it seems to come from catch block of Unicast.cs where it is handling "Exception".
2) Any suggestions to resolve / dig into the issue?

w3wp.exe crash - ThreadAbortException

we have a problem that we can't reproduce, it happens randomly on our web server (Windows Server 2008 Datacenter 64-bit, hosted on Amazon EC2) running ASP.NET 4.
It starts with a ASP.NET warning in the error log (a strange GET request with a really long URL):

but I found in the event log that this happen for this urls like this aswell:

("dangerous request" in .NET 4)
You should at least load symbols and then see the correct strings displayed in call stack.
If you are not capable of handling such analysis, I think opening a support case via http://support.microsoft.com is good for you.
I have been trying to work out a similar issue.
I found this article which purports a process for determining the cause, I think it actually makes sense:

Caveat: I have not been able to sucessfully complete the steps described. I will be posting here asking for help.
