IssamTP's questions

I have two computers both with Windows XP SP3 Pro and two network cards. Everything it's linked as described below:

1. PC named A, has 1 expansion network card Intel Pro 1000 with IP set to 10.0.0.1 used to control a camera. This cannot be changed.
2. PC named A uses motherboard network card Intel Pro 100 to communicate with PC B. This IP is set to 192.168.151.2 smask 255.255.255.0.
3. PC Named B has mobo network card Atheros to link with LAN. This IP is set to 192.168.100.53 smask 255.255.255.0.
4. PC Named B has expansion network card Intel Pro 1000 used to communicate with PC A.

A and B are linked by a crossed cable, firewalling is disabled and antivirus too. We're connecting to B by TW and from there to A by RDP, but since today it's impossible to get the stuff work. If we change IPs (we already switched from 20.1.1.1 to 172.16.0.1 and to 192.168.151.1) we get the RDP work again until we shut off the computer, then once rebooted, we're unable to connect again. When we tested computers here, everything was fine as almost well as we took them to customer. I'm thinking that it's a hardware question ( different card speed 100-1000, bad wire, bad card? ), but am I missing something software?

I'm new to Linux world and I'm getting stuck with the Apache version 2.2 Virtual host configuration.

In my local /var/www I have 2 sites (and the default localhost) in their respective directories:

/var/www/importer
/var/www/foostore

Importer is an importer for a Opencart installed into daxstore directory, which I'm developing. I want two distinct sites working so I've copied the file

/etc/apache2/sites-available/default

into the same directory two times, renaming it into "importer" and "foostore" and then edited them to:

<VirtualHost importer:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost

ServerName  importer
DocumentRoot /var/www/importer/
<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/importer>
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    allow from all
</Directory>
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
<Directory "/usr/lib/cgi-bin">
    AllowOverride None
    Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
# Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
# alert, emerg.
LogLevel debug
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
Alias /doc/ "/usr/share/doc/"
<Directory "/usr/share/doc/">
    Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from 127.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 ::1/128
</Directory>

switching the name for the other side. I then edited /etc/hosts as follows:

127.0.0.1   localhost
127.0.1.1   VirtualHD
127.0.0.1   foostore
127.0.0.1   importer

Then I give the commands:

sudo a2ensite importer
sudo a2ensite foostore
sudo service apache2 restart

and apache goes right. When I try to access both sites, the browser redirect me on the foostore site (which also can't find some files but this is a matter for another question). Where am I wrong?

Thank you sirs.

I'm trying to setup a test enviroment on a virtual machine running Windows XP Home (totally updated), with Apache 2.2 and PHP 5.4.7.

I can load the PHP 5 module inside httpd.conf and if I don't rename php.ini-DEVELOPMENT (or -PRODUCTION) file to php.ini, the engine works fine.

This basic configuration doesn't have MySQL module loaded, so I have to rename rename the .ini-DEVELOPMENT into .ini and edit as follows:

; Directory in which the loadable extensions (modules) reside.
; http://php.net/extension-dir
; extension_dir = "./"
; On windows:
extension_dir = "C:/php/ext/"
...
extension=php_mysql.dll
extension=php_mysqli.dll

Restart Apache with no problems and... all I can get is a blank page. Where can I see some error or do you know where is the trouble?

Tell me if I need to post something else to give you more details.

EDIT:

I have found a solution, even if we can't talk exactly of solution. Well, I used RevoUninstaller to remove the MySQL Server, then I've proceed with a standard installation and everything got solved. Then, I've repeated all the steps above, adding each time a customization. I finally found that the error comes out when I chose default character set to ucs2 instead of latin1. Even If the problem is solved, I'll leave the question open for further and more detailed answers.

END EDIT.

I've tried to update MySQL Server from version 5.1 to 5.5 to get rid of a bug in a program. After a first try, the situation was worst than I have expected: the program can't log in with root user anymore and so Workbench and console. In the latter case, the error was:

c:\mypathtosql>mysql -u root -p
Enter password:******
ERROR 1045 (28000):

Yes, after ERROR 1045 (28000) there were no details. I decided to completely remove the package (which include a manual removing of all reg keys) and then to install it again. This workaround worked for Workbench, but my program can't do the user creation from a script with no error apparently (I get an error "Can't find any matching row in the user table", but I guess this happen late in the script when I log with the appropriate user), and also the console persist to give the error described above.

Everything seems to work fine with MySQL Workbench...

Hints, suggestions?

Thank you in advance.

I've installed an IMM module for a server that has to be controlled remotely. Now, while the general panel works greatly, I can't run the remote control.

The server is behind a firewall and the RC works greatly in LAN, so I guess that is a matter of port.

Which one should I open?

Goodmorning everyone, I'm a newbie Windows 2008 s.a., and I'm stuck with a strange problem.

I've made a very simple bat file that stops the Apache HTTP Server, copies a file and then restart the webserver (yes, this is stupid, but this is what they gave to me). Now, the bat runs properly, but if I schedule it, no matter of what privileges I give to the process, it simply doesn't run.

Just to be sure, I've made another script that should create a directory and again it runs normally, but not as a scheduled task.

Where am I wrong? Thank you.

I'm installing a virtual machine with Windows 2003 Web Edition with ColdFusion 9 and a SQL SERVER 2005 Express. I've imported and attached the databases from two files and I can use it correctly from SSMS.

Following the instructions, I've created a System DSN connecting to the server MYSERVERNAME\SQLEXPRESS, combined access Windows Authentication\SQL Authentication and so on. I've tested the connection at the end of process and the test was successful. Then I've enabled TCP connection on lanip+localhost and also the port to 1433.

Finally I went to the ColdFusion Administration panel and I've created a new dsn using Microsoft SQL Driver, setted the dsn name, the name of database and then the server name to MYSERVERNAME\SQLEXPRESS. I used (at least for the moment) the sa credentials. Here come the troubles:

Using MYSERVERNAME\SQLEXPRESS causes a java exception that tells me that the instance is invalid or not running:

java.sql.SQLNonTransientConnectionException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]The requested instance is either invalid or not running.

Same exception if I use 127.0.0.1\SQLEXPRESS. BUT, if I use 127.0.0.1 The dsn will cause no exception, and more, I can access to database, but some queries crash, telling me (could not be the exact error because I've translated it from my native language):

Error Executing Database Query. [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Could not login with username 'sa'.

Surfing the net, I've found a tutorial that tells me to download the Microsoft sqljdbc driver and put it in the WEB-INF directory of cold fusion and then:

JDBC URL: jdbc:sqlserver://{server name}\sqlexpress:1433

Driver Class: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver

Driver Name: SQL Server 2005 JDBC

This leads to the error:

Error Executing Database Query. [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Could not login with username 'sa'.

Where can be the problem? If you need more informations about the system I'll post them, just let me know.

I've a log of a busy website that grows very fast. I'd like to know if there's a way to "split" the log file every day without using external tools.

EDIT: My Fault, I'm on a Windows server 2003, Apache Version 2.0.64.

I'd like to know if it is possible to configure (and if yes: how) Tomcat acting like http web server without using Apache isapi.

I have to manage a huge web site which has coded with absolute paths like:

<a href='http://www.samewebsite.net/anotherPage.cfm'>link to another page in the site.</a>

Now, as I previously said, the web site has many pages and I'm not paid for changing manually all the absolute URLs into relatives. Someone suggested me to try use the mod_rewrite Apache to get rid of them. I checked Apache docs and tried this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule www.samewebsite.net localhost

but it doesn't work nor in .htaccess file nor in httpd.conf inside the VirtualHost directive. I guess it's a matter of regexpressions, but I'm not sure of it. How can i solve this?

Thank you.

I have an ASP web service, that allows to various users to put some data in a database and to upload some images. Since the users have different web sites, the web service uploads the image in a first directory in its own space, then calls an ASP web page located in the user's domain passing it the path to the image (correctly stored) as follows:

MResponseBackAsp(Session("Dominio") & "trasferisci.asp?nomefile=" & Session.SessionID & "-" & name)

So, here it comes the trouble, I receive the following message:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0005' 
Invalid procedure call or argument 
/trasferisci.asp, line 28 Si è verificato un errore nel salvataggio dell'immagine

The code relative to that line is commented:

<%  
nomeFile = Request("nomefile")

Dim lStato
Dim objHTTP
Dim strDataIn
'Randomize()

Set objHTTP = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP") 
objHTTP.Open "GET", "http://URL/" & nomeFile, False 
objHTTP.Send 
lStato= objHTTP.Status
strDataIn= objHTTP.ResponseBody 'Binario 
Set objHTTP = Nothing 

If (lStato<>200) Or (Err.Number<>0) Then 
  problema = "Errore " & lStato & " o " & Err.Description & "."
End If

newNomeFile = right(nomeFile,len(nomeFile)-instr(nomeFile,"-"))
fileDaSalvare = Server.mapPath(Application("news_immagini") & newNomeFile)

Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If objFSO.FileExists(fileDaSalvare) Then objFSO.DeleteFile(fileDaSalvare)
Set objFl = objFSO.CreateTextFile(fileDaSalvare, true)
objFl.Write BinaryToString(strDataIn)
objFl.Close()
Set objFl = Nothing
Set objFSO = Nothing

Function BinaryToString(Binary) 
  dim c1, c2, c3, p1, p2, p3 
  Dim L 
  c1 = 1 :  c2 = 1 : c3 = 1 
  L = LenB(Binary) 

  Do While c1<=L 
    p3 = p3 & Chr(AscB(MidB(Binary,c1,1))) 
    c1 = c1 + 1 : c3 = c3 + 1 
    if c3>300 then 
      p2 = p2 & p3 
      p3 = "" 
      c3 = 1 
      c2 = c2 + 1 
      if c2>200 then 
        p1 = p1 & p2 
        p2 = "" 
        c2 = 1 
      End If 
    End If 
  Loop 
  BinaryToString = p1 & p2 & p3 
End Function

Response.write "salvato"
%>

But the best parts come now: 1) If we call trasferisci.asp manually it works; 2) If we refresh the global.asa then it works again for a while

I read somewhere that there could be some problems whit image upload, where is the problem? Suggestions?

Thank you all folks.

PS (edit): I've posted this question here because we think that the problems are into the System, not into the code. I apologyze if it is not.

Well, hi everybody. I'm trying to make aliases working on Apache & Windows 7. So, this is what I have:

<IfModule alias_module>
Alias /TamasMobile/ "C:/Users/IssamTP/Documents/NetBeansProjects/TamasMobile/"
</IfModule>
<Directory "C:/Users/IssamTP/Documents/NetBeansProjects/TamasMobile/">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php
AllowOverride None
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
</Directory>

Loading website, leads to this error:

403 Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /TamasMobile/ on this server.

While the Apache Error log says:

[Tue Sep 07 00:49:29 2010] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] client denied by server configuration: C:/Users/IssamTP/Documents/NetBeansProjects/TamasMobile/

Yep, I can change the working directory to: ./htdocs/TamasMobile/ or do something similar, but I'd like to know how to fix this just for personal interest.

Thank you very much folks.
