Almost all azure-cache-redis-samples does not work correctly

Question

Hi, Can you please double check if the samples can work correctly. Already, fo ASP sample, in VS 2022 after struggling with missing bundles/scripts not found virtual directory, it fails on the line 149 of
azure-cache-redis-samples of redisConnection.cs
I followed then instructions for "cache-web-app-aspnet-core-howto" it builds and run then when clicking on "Azure Cache for Redis Test", I get

Answer 2

Hi, anonymous user I am unable to replicate the issue on my machine. Please ensure your CacheSecrets.config file follows the following format:

<appSettings>
<add key="CacheConnection" value="<DNS_NAME>.redis.cache.windows.net:6380,password=<PASSWORD>,ssl=True,abortConnect=False"/>
</appSettings>
