phpMyAdmin alternative

December 17, 2009

For some reason (and I guess that some of my changes to the apache-config are the reason) pma stopped working today. It just won’t let me log in, which is really annoying and contra productive.
What to do, search for an fast and easy to set up alternative and hunt the bug when there is time for it.
Anyway, I found this tiny little app called sqlbuddy.
It’s a small zipfile with no initial setup, just extract, browse to it and log in into your mysql-server. Love it!

I guess pma can stay in its grave, sqlbuddy just won my heart.

Kerio adminconsole on (K)ubuntu 9.10 64Bit

November 5, 2009

After smashing my XP-installation and going back to Kubuntu 9.10 I came to the point where I needed to install the adminconsole for Kerios wonderful exchange-solution.
So I downloaded the ubuntu-package, ran dpkg on it and came up with an error:
error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

To save maybe some poeple a lot of time, after some headaches and google I came up with this wonderful trick:
Download this http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/amd64/ia32-libs/download
Install it. Install Kerion adminconsole again. Have fun.

Cheers

Outdated browser?

October 21, 2009

One thing I always struggle with, is the hilarious great number of outdated browser and to inform the users about that they are using something which may be half a century old (One more IE6-user and I quit!).
Also when some code is implemented to check the browser version it must be kept up to date which sucks.
But hey, there is this wonderful website http://www.browser-update.org just implement their script and it informs the users with a little bar that their browser seems to be a little bit out of date.
Sweet tool.

Grails jQuery-Plugin 1.3.2.4 released

June 15, 2009

Since there was a small bug with the config-file in 1.3.2.3 I released 1.3.2.4 which comes with it own JQueryConfig.groovy in jquery-1.3.2.4/grails-app/conf/.

The two options sources and version moved to jquery.sources and jquery.version.

You can access them in your code (if needed) like this:

GroovyClassLoader classLoader = new GroovyClassLoader(getClass().getClassLoader())

ConfigObject config = new ConfigSlurper().parse(classLoader.loadClass(‘JQueryConfig’))

def jQueryVersion = config.jquery.version

Grails jQuery-Plugin 1.3.2.2 released

June 9, 2009

Great news everyone,

I’ve recently released the Grails jQuery-Plugin in version 1.3.2.2.
The versioning moved to this layout: <jQuery version>.<plugin increment version>, so the first three numbers are the jQuery-version and the last one a release count.

Since this release is mainly a bugfix here are the fixed JIRAs:
GRAILSPLUGINS-1161
GRAILSPLUGINS-1003
GRAILSPLUGINS-930

In the background the work on a jQuery-UI-plugin is going on and maybe I’m going start work on a google calendar-plugin.

For bugreports and feature requests please rise a JIRA at http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GRAILSPLUGINS

Kubuntu 9.04: Screen, Sound, wtf?

April 26, 2009

After a long time I finally upgraded my really nice running Ubuntu 8.something to Kubuntu 9.04.
The Installation went very smoothly, no problems.
After that I started the System for the first time (suprise) and everything looked ok.
Next step I installed the nvidia glx 180-drivers and everything went bad. After installing and restarting my X didn’t came up again.
Sucks.

The pretty easy solution was lspci and adding my graphic-cards id to the xorg.conf (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) in the driver-section.
BusID "PCI:xx:xx:xx"
That’s it.

The interesting part came up when I started Amarok to listen to some music. First install the MP3-support, everything ok so far. Play a sound file.

It plays. Sound? no!

And again the solution I came up with shortly before I’d like to throw my pc out of my window:
Open alsamixer, increase the volumes. Simple, eh? For some god damne reason the important control was not present within the kmixer and set to zero.

What a wonderful activity to spend the morning with.

I hope this may help somebody to prevent the stress I had.

Cheers

Time passes by

April 9, 2009

The last weeks have been so full of work that I had not time to even look at my blog. But I hope it will get better now.
There where several thinks worth to write about, but I forgot the most of them.

However, since I’m writing a little game-pyhsics-engine this semester, for my practical at the university, it will give me some stuff to post here.

So far

Cheers

Etch to Lenny and my trac went away

March 3, 2009

Tonight I upgraded my Debian Etch servers to Lenny. The whole procedure went like a clockwork, except one thing:
Trac

I access my trac via Apache. With the upgrade the /usr/share/trac/cgi-bin/trac.cgi in

#snip
ScriptAlias /trac /usr/share/trac/cgi-bin/trac.cgi
#snap

was gone. Sad but true.

So I’ve searched through the files that came with trac.
dpkg -L trac

It seems that everything moved to /usr/share/pyshared/trac, but still no trac.cgi. After a little bit more searching the file /usr/share/pyshared/trac/web/cgi_frontend.py came up.

By changing the rights to 755
chmod 755 /usr/share/pyshared/trac/web/cgi_frontend.py
and replacing the ScriptAlias with
ScriptAlias /trac /usr/share/pyshared/trac/web/cgi_frontend.py
it worked like a charm and trac showed up, telling me to do a
trac /path/to/project upgrade
on my project. After that everything was ready, yay!
