Hvem kigger på din Linkedin profil

Fra tid til anden kan man se hvem der har kigget på ens profil. Dog kun de 5 øverst/første eller hvordan det nu fungerer. Det kan man få meget sjov ud af. Den seneste jeg har haft som jeg undrer mig over er denne

Custom php redirect in my 404 document

I have given up on getting to have Wordpress presenting permalinks in a form that would enable my old pebble links to actually hit the same post in Wordpress. This doesn't mean that it will never happen but I will leave it for now.

What I have done is the follwing. I added this to my 000-default in sites-enabled

<Directory /www/htdocs/yoursite>
AllowOverride FileInfo
</Directory>

Since i only know of this problem to exist inside my blog I edited the .htaccess inside the blog directory with the line below

ErrorDocument 404 /error404.php

I then create a file called error404.php in the root of my web server that contains the text below

<?php
//errror404.php
echo "<font size="3"><center><strong>
You have reached a page that has changed, moved or is no longer available.<br>
You will be forward to the front page.<br>
If you came from a search engine please use the search box on the front page to find what you were looking for.<br>
If you came from a bookmark - please update the bookmark appropriately</strong></center></font>";
echo "<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2;URL=/index.php">";
?>

This way all "old" links will be directed to the frontpage of my blog and not to the regular 404 doc from Apache

Upgraded to Wordpress 2.3

Indeed a painless upgrade. Steps were:

Backup Database
Download version 2.3
Extract and overwrite existing directory
Access upgrade page to upgrade database

And that was it...

This means that I now have access to tag posts and show those in the sidebar. Since I use Windows Live Writer I picked up the wlwmanifest.xml from here which worked out nicely. I have to mention that in WLW one set tags in a field called Keywords which seems a bit strange to me.

CPU Spiked at 100%

This morning i found that my ubuntu box had it's CPU spiked at 100%. I found through "top" that smboid was the process hogging my resources and a quick search revealed that smbfs is no longer developed and one should mount samba shares with cifs instead

Ny Ipod Nano

Så den nye Ipod Nano i ægte live i går. Tror det var Twit der sagde at billederne ikke gjorde den ære. Det vil jeg give dem ret i. At den bette skærm kan vise video er jeg dog ikke sikker på at jeg kan se værdien af men vi bliver jo klogere en gang i mellem. Der var nok også engang hvor jeg ikke troede jeg skulle se tv på en PSP

Enabling Streamsicle on Tomcat 6

I finally got around to get streamsicle up running but ran into the fact that after deploying the streamsicle.war file to Tomcat I was unable to access the servlet. I remembered having fixed this on an earlier installation and found my old web.xml.

After updating it everything works fine. The original content of web.xml was

<web-app>
  <servlet>
    <servlet-name>Streamsicle</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>com.streamsicle.Streamsicle</servlet-class>
    <load-on-startup>-2147483646</load-on-startup>
  </servlet>
</web-app>

This needs to be changed to

<web-app>
  <servlet>
    <servlet-name>Streamsicle</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>com.streamsicle.Streamsicle</servlet-class>
    <load-on-startup>-2147483646</load-on-startup>
  </servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>Streamsicle</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/servlet/Streamsicle</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>Streamsicle</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/servlet/Streamsicle/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

After this everything was ok

Accessing shares on DS 207 from Ubuntu Feisty Fawn

I finally got around to find a solution to this. It was simple and described here

smbmount //mydsbox/myshare /mydir/mountpoint -o username=username

There was nothing to it. I had to install smbfs on Ubuntu with apt-get install smbfs

Det ser jo så allerede ud til at blive en sjov tur hjem

Test af om upload af billeder virker

Så her er lige et billede fra sommerens tur til Legoland

Hvis du ser denne post så er jeg i virkeligheden en "happy camper" da alt så ser ud til at virke efter min migregring. Det betyder også at Pebble ikke fik lov til at vinde denne gang da dette så klart er den største pain for mig i forbindelse med at blogge.

 

Løsning fandt jeg her

Pebble tilbage på busknet.com igen

Denne gang i version 2.2 på Apache Tomcat 6 hvilket vidst nok næsten er den korrekte version. Min tanke er at bruge den til at vedligeholde gamle links men jeg er da fristet til at gå tilbage fra Wordpress givet mine eksisterende problemer.

Det er ganske ukonfigureret endnu men det kommer snarest og kan ses her

Wordpress permalinks - my headache

I found that when moving to Ubuntu I had the opportunity to enable pretty permalinks in Wordpress. To my regret this is not an easy task. I was hoping I could recreate the permalinks that Pebble had to enable old links to "just work". I made it some of the way but not nearly close enough.

Google tells me that using Pretty Permalinks is no easy task but it seems to be doable.

Wordpress on Ubuntu not allowing uploads

So much to my regret I find that after moving to Ubuntu I'm no longer able to upload files in my posts from Live Writer nor can I do it from within the Wordpress interface.

Googling this issue tells me that I'm not alone but I have yet to find a solution that works for me. More later

Wordpress 2.3 RC1 released

Finally Wordpress released 2.3 RC1 which hopefully enables them to ship 2.3 as planned on Monday the 24th. I know what I will be spending monday night doing - for sure.

Update på løb

Der er nu gået 1.5 uge siden jeg sidst løb og fik rigtig ondt. Det gode er at jeg ikke har haft smerter de sidste par dage hvorfor jeg vil tro at jeg forsøger mig med en kortere tur når jeg når 2 ugers pause. Så må vi se hvordan det går.

Busknet tilbage på Ubuntu

Har flyttet busknet.com tilbage på en spartansk installation af Ubuntu på en maskine som er lidt hurtigere end min Synology DS207 som nu kan koncentrere sig om det den er bedst til - nemlig at være NAS

Løb - en kort status

Det er noget tid siden jeg sidst har skrevet om løb. Det skyldes at jeg siden forrige søndag hvor jeg 15 km fik problemer med mit venstre knæ, som ellers har været det bedste af de to. Den sidste uge er gået med smerter i forbindelse med trapper, kobling osv. så jeg har forsøgt at holde det helt i ro og derfor ikke løbet. Det betyder desværre også at jeg måtte undlade at løbe halvmarathon i weekenden som ellers var målet med det hele hvilket har været lidt af en nedtur. Jeg regner med at holde det i ro en uges tid endnu og derefter forsøge mig med en kortere tur eller to. M

Koolu Performance duel

Fandt denne sammenligning mellem en Koolu og en PIII 666Mhz pentium. Den ældre Pentium er lidt hurtigere men bruger også en del mere strøm...

Bbclone & Wordpress

Figured I'd share this as others have. Using Bbclone with wordpress in the default configuration renders the statistics generated by Bbclone more or less useless as all hits go to the main page with no way of seeing the URL being requested. This means that there is no way one can see which posts are being hit.

I found this page that gave me a working solution. I didn't modify anything but index.php where I inserted the following

define('_BBC_PAGE_NAME', $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']); define('_BBCLONE_DIR', '../bbclone/'); define('COUNTER', _BBCLONE_DIR . 'mark_page.php'); if (is_readable(COUNTER)) include_once(COUNTER);

This at least seems to give me entries like  /blog/ in the log instead of just hits to the mainpage. I even have seen  /blog/?p=451 but I can't seem to it give me anything else than this...

Fit-pc - mest til mig selv men interessant for andre

EyeOS on Synology DS 207

Continuing on my exploration of the DS 207 and what I can do with the box without mod'ing it. I wanted to be able to browse from my home IP from anywhere. Optimally I'd want to be able to access my home network which this doesn't give me(I guess I have to enable SSH to get this). EyeOS should give me the remote browsing. I started out by trying to follow the installation instructions from EyeOS. This rendered no result so i decided to try to install on a Linux box which gave me the error around needing to CHMOD 777 to the files and directories. It installed on the Linux box flawlessly and after that I copied the files to the DS 207 and logged in.

Leave Britney alone...??!!?

De flest har nok set den allerede men det er da det vildeste. Jo jeg har set den optræden uden at være synderligt imponeret men hvad så?

Er dette stadig den rigtige router?

Skal have en ny router så jeg selv kan styre porte mv. og tilkoble ekstra antenne. I den forbindelse har jeg kigget på den gode gamle Linksys WRT54G. Er det stadig den rigtige når man nu allerede har NAS osv. på plads?

Sådan - 250 km på 8 uger

Jeg tror jeg kan sige uden at lyve at jeg aldrig har været i bedre form end nu.

Barometerets tankevæg

Faldt over barometerets tankevæg her til morgen. Det var lidt interessant. Der er alt fra både vedkommende ting til fuldstændig ligegyldige ting. Både rørende og opmuntrende

Windows Live updated

So this is why I now have the ability to use Live Writer to post images to Wordpress. I must say that I really like Writer. I also installed the mail client but I'm not sure that it will stick. It does recognize and configure ports etc. with gmail correctly now which is really great and one less thing to care about..

Daily show om Net Neutrality

Fik denne fra Laust om hvad Net Neutrality i virkeligheden betyder og hvorfor vi skal sørge for at det bliver sådan

Wordpress er sagen?

Laust sendte dette link som øjensynligt lovpriser Wordpress som det førende stykke software når man skal vælge blogging platform. Så mangler vi jo bare at jeg lærer lidt om seje plug-ins mv. Det eneste jeg har kigget på krævede at man også installerede et modul til apache som jeg jo ikke har så meget lyst til

Wordpress releases version 2.3 beta 2

Wordpress has announced the second of the betas that is being released each monday until the release of version 2.3 on September 24th.

Nu ser alt ud til at virke

Gad vide om det også ville have gjort det med Pebble.... For at illustrere hvad jeg snakker om vedhæfter jeg en serie billeder som blev taget under Justin i Parken

    

 

Hvad kan jeg sige andet end - juhu

Den længste uge

Det blev til en rigtig god ude løbemæssigt. Startede Onsdag med en tur på 19,02 km, Fredag blev til 16,01 og Søndag 15,09. Gode ben hele vejen igennem og jeg rundet 180 miles aka 290 km.

Wordpress on Synology DS207

I have been running Wordpress for about a week or so on my Synology DS207 and what you are reading now is being served by that platform. The box is running LAMP and it actually seems to be doing so just fine. Installation is easy and well described. In general I only have two objections to the way the DS207 is working and one of them comes down to my general paranoia around serving content on the internet.

I'm currently unable to access the log files produced by Apache. This means that I have no way of checking if someone or something is trying to gain access to password protected content. To be able to follow traffic on my blog I run bbclone which is fine but certainly no sprinter when it comes to performance. Of course there are mods available that will enable me to do virtually anything with this device but that will in turn void the warranty.

That leads to my second objection against the DS207 as my web server. It is slow compared to my old Laptop runnng Ubuntu, Apache, Tomcat and Pebble. I guess it is ok for a scaled down dedicated device but once you get used to things being fast it is difficult to go back.

More to follow as I move along including install descriptions for bbclone and more if needed

Wordpress 2.3 Beta 1 available

Wordpress has announced the availability of version 2.3 beta 1. One of the features announced is built in ability to tag entries. It's funny how an older piece of software like Wordpress that I allways looked upon as a full blown blogging platform wouldn't have this ability until now. Coming from Pebble I have become used to this and other features.

Blanding af sprog

Startende fra i dag vil jeg for de tekniske ting jeg kommer til at skrive om bla. mine erfaringer med Synology, Ubuntu, Windows Live, Wordpress etc. på engelsk. Jeg får et evigt stigende antal hits på de posts fra adresser som ikke er danske.
