CodeReady Container address range

I've been working with Red Hat's CodeReady Containers and I recently had a networking issue that might not be obvious to all users.

Hyper-V assigns your VM to an address space in the 172.x.x.x range.

CRC also assigns, by default, in the 172.30.0.0/16 address space.

This all works well unless Windows assigns your VM an address in 172.30.x.x as well. Then you get a bunch of networking issues where you can't connect outside the cluster. This means you can't download images, etc.

The solution - reboot your PC and restart CRC until you get an address outside the 172.30.x.x range.

Spring Boot native builds when internet downloads are blocked made simple

No direct access to the internet If you work at a company that controls their software bill of materials, it's quite common to be blocked from directly downloading from: Maven Central Docker hub GitHub (the public parts) Getting the bits Maven Maven is first, because without it, you won't be able to compile your Spring Boot application, let alone move on to turning it into a native docker image. I will be showing changes need to work with artifactory, but you should be able to adapt it to other mirror solutions. repositories { maven { name = "central" url = "https://artifactory.example.com/central" credentials { username = "${project.ext.properties.artifactory_username}" password = "${project.ext.properties.artifactory_apikey}" } } } With this configuration change, you should be able to download your plugins and dependencies, allowing you to compile and ...

Kotlin Notebook when you're blocked from Maven Central

TLDR; If you are blocked getting to maven central when first using Kotlin Notebooks because of company firewalls, you can use a tool like Fiddler Tool to redirect to a different network location. Kotlin Notebooks Kotlin Notebooks are a JDK based environment that brings the Python based Jupyter Notebooks expressiveness to IntelliJ. From the blog post announcing the plugin, it looks like this: At home, the installation of jar files looked like this: I played around with it at home, but I couldn't use it at work. Many companies, mine included, do not allow software components to be used when downloaded directly from the internet. In my companies case, we use a product called Artifactory, which allows you to mirror the content from Maven Central while still applying policies like CVE scanning, tracking, etc. The way it should work IntelliJ, as one of the leading IDE's, generally supports this quite well. In fact, there is a whole setting page dedicated to dealing wi...

BSOD Unexpected Kernel Mode Trap

BSOD In Windows, the blue screen of death is what is shown to users when the operating system encounters something it wasn't expecting so bad that it decides to just quit rather than attempting to continue operating. This isn't a single task that has failed, like Windows Explorer. If that dies you lose the ability to interact with windows, but you can restart the process using keyboard shortcuts. The behavior My Windows 11 desktop had always been a little flaky, occasionally hanging every few weeks. It was annoying, but not enough to actually go through the effort to diagnose or re-install everything. But after a recent patch Tuesday, the behavior had changed. Rather than hanging, it started displaying a BSOD, rebooting and then running just fine. I also have three different accounts on my desktop: My standard, low permission account I use for day to day activities and development, games, etc. An Administrator account that is linked to my Microsoft account An Adm...
