Windows Server 2012-R2/2016 auto login not working - windows-server-2012-r2

After trying several version of the registry edit way to login automatically (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/324737/how-to-turn-on-automatic-logon-in-windows)
I am still unable to make my servers(Windows 2012-R2, Windows 2016) automatically login. What i specifically need is for a program to start up whenever the server boots, and a logged in user is required for the program to function properly. I have followed the links and did as instructed.
My Registry Entry
As well as change the AutoAdminLogon to 1.
I also tried with the checkbox in User Accounts(https://superuser.com/questions/499724/auto-login-windows-server-2012)
but without luck...
The servers are machines i connect to remotely with a username and password.
Am i misunderstanding both of these methods?
Is it for some reason impossible when they are remote servers?
Are there any other ways of making the server login?
Any help is much appreciated :)

To Anyone stumpling upon this thread later, I found this tiny program.
https://learn.microsoft.com/da-dk/sysinternals/downloads/autologon
It worked like an absolute charm on my 2012-R2 and 2016 server.

How to search for Shiny Apps - Rstudio

I'm entering the world of Shiny Rstudio now. So this is a beginner question
One question I came up with is: how do I search for the Shiny Apps available/created? Are all created Apps available? Is there any way that, once I create my app, I prevent it from being viewed? Or during the creation I "block it"?
From so much searching I found this link via Rstudio's website: http://www.showmeshiny.com/
Would this be the search platform for all apps made?
But in the case of http://www.showmeshiny.com/ it seems that it is necessary to send it via "Submit App".
I am not sure if I understand your questions correctly but I might be able to give you some insights.
Are all created Apps available?
No, some shiny Apps are hosted on private servers or/and are embedded in password-protected websites or Wordpress-pages for example. If you dont have those access rights, then you cannot see those Apps.
How do I search for the Shiny Apps available/created?
There is no way of doing that, except on pages like Showmeshiny, the RStudio Shiny Gallery, this gallery of recent Shiny-Apps or pther similar pages. Those Apps are publicly available and you can submit your own App if you like sharing it. Shinyapps.io is a nice and easy way of deploying your App on a server with a few clicks. But you need at least the standard license to include authentication, otherwise they would be free and open for everyone.
Is there any way that, once I create my app, I prevent it from being
viewed?
I am not quite sure, what you mean. If it should be blocked from being viewed at all, I dont see the reason of building a ShinyApp. If you just want to access it yourself, then there are ways of doing so. Either password-protect it where only you know the password or host it on a local server that only you can access.
Or during the creation I "block it"?
If you create it on your computer and run it, it will run on your computer and only be accessible to yourself, except you explicitly configure it otherwise. So there is no need of "blocking it".

Informatica Administrator: Domain site refuse to connect

I have successfully completed the installation of informatica, and I am able to login domain Administrator http://ssingh:6008/administrator but the session get timed out after some time of inactivity.
The issue I am facing is It shows error to reconnect i.e. ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED. Although this issue does not occur everytime, but frequently seen this issue.
Thanks in advance for the solution to resolve this issue.
It requires informatica service to be up and running. So go to System services and Start Informatica service. Wait for few minutes once service get started, and then will be able to view Administrator page.
P.S. I got this answer after self experimenting it. If any one knows better answer please do post it here. Thanks!
I have the same issue and as you suggested, all what we need to do is to check if the service is running under Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services (for Windows users) and be patient. My browser connects to the tool automatically after 3 or 4 minutes. Thank you!

How to make Django pass cookies when communicating with Node.js server using socket.io?

I am currently developing an instant messaging feature for my apps (ideally cross platform mobile app/web app), and I am out of ideas to fix my issue.
So far, I have been able to make everything work locally, using a Node.js server with socket.io, django, and redis, following what most tutorials online suggest.
The step I am now at consists in putting all that in the cloud using amazon AWS. My Django server is up and running, I created a new separate Node.js server, and I am using Elasticache to handle the Redis part. I launch the different parts, and no error shows up.
However, whenever I try using my messaging feature on the web, I keep getting an error 500:
handshake error
I then used the console to check the request header, and I observed that the cookies are not in there, contrary to when I am on localhost. I know it is necessary to authorize the handshake, so I guess that's where my error is coming from..
Furthermore, I have also checked that the cookies do exist, they are just not set in the request header.
My question is then: How can I make sure Django or socket client (not sure who's responsible here..) puts the cookies in the header??
One of my ideas was that maybe I am supposed to put everything on the same server, with different ports, instead of 2 separate servers? Documentation on that specific architecture problem is surprisingly scarce, compared to the number of tutorials describing how to make it work on local.
I hope I described the problem accurately enough! :)
Important note: I am using socket.io v0.9.1-1, only one compatible with a titanium mobile app.
Thank you for any help!
All right, so I've made some progress.
The cookie problem came from the fact I was making cross-domain request, adding a few lines enabled CORS, which didn't solve the cookie issue, but allowed me to communicate between servers (basically I set the headers of the response using express. I then passed necessary data in the query, even if not the most secure way to do it, I'm just building an MVP, and it's enough for now.
I haven't been able to make the chat work from my Titanium mobile app, but since I can use a webview to handle it, I will be fine.
Hopefully that will help someone.. If anyone needs me to post some code snippets I will gladly do so upon request!
Cheers

Cfm page gets downloaded instead of rendering in the browser

I have done the setup for coldfusion-61.When I try to hit the URL for a cfm page, a download window pops up asking if I want to save the file. This happens in the Internet Explorer. In Mozilla it just shows the code written in the cfm file. I looked up on the internet and what most people suggested was re installation but the issue persists . Any suggestions ?
As your using port 8500 I presume you are using the internal server and do bot gave iis installed?
Are you sure that you chose rhis option during installation?
Also have you checked the service is actually running.
I ran into this on CF10, was in the end an issue with the Application Pool. I had to recreate the pool and could then move forward with other issues.

SL Out of browser app - SecurityException

My SL5 out-of-browser application works on one computer, but not on another computer.
On both computers the application is built in, and started from, VS2012 running as Administrator.
The SecurityException occurs here:
Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments)
A possibly related issue: On the computer that throws the exception, the app runs in the default browser, while on the other computer the app runs out-of-browser.
Any insights will be appreciated...
The related issue is spot on: you can't access local folders with a standard Silverlight in browser app, but you can with an OOB one.
So you have either to restrict your functionality to Out-of-Browser mode or enable elevated priviledges in browser (which is quite painful, see various questions on SO: search results).
