I’m really getting tired of all those spammers who auto-signup for a blog and then fill it with one crappy post ending with a a few junk links. Really have to find out a good way to stop it.
For years I’ve been using the fantastic editor SubEthaEdit for all my development work in OS X. I use it for pretty much everything: editing html, text files, code perl and php stuff, but I’ve always missed good perl integration. It has been anoying to switch to a terminal window just to debug perl code when php editing is so swift.
A few days ago I stumbled over Affrus and it was love at first sight.
Affrus offer stepped execution with breakpoints and a whole bunch of advanced features that I miss from the well built Borland ide’s back in the DOS-days. The registration cost is almost $100 - but I’m happy to pay that when the evaluation period is over!
I’ve installed some new wordpress-plugins for you guys
to play with. Check them out and let me know what you think.
Also - if anyone want a own theme - just mail it to me and I’ll enable it for you after an code audit. An full theme editor or the option to install a theme of your own will just not happend, there is to many security risk with that.
The next time you update Apache via up2date on an RHEL Ensim-box remember that “no ensimized packages” mean “almost non ensimized packages with crucial execptions”.
The next time high security sites and cgi-scripts are non functional - check if suexec has been updated before you spend hours on the forums and Ensim’s clueless support.
cd /usr/sbin
cp suexec suexec-backup
cp suexec-ensim suexec
service httpd graceful
Kyle Douglass has written a quick intro to perl oneliners, nothing new for the advanced hax0r0r but the casual user or the perl curious might pick something up and get inspired. Check it out.
The other night I turned on my xbox and continued where I was the last time. The timestamp on the saved game in Doom 3 said “October 15 2005″. Doom was just as boring as I remembered.
I decided to check out Xbox Live since the house got a stable connection these days. $30 for a 3 month “trial” to play the games I’ve already paid good money for? Are they kidding me?
I need to get rid of that POS.
Now and then I need to install perl modules outside the regular library dirs. Most often because of an temporary installation in userspace but also when I use FINK to quickly install complex bundles on my powerbook. Since it’s most often just is a temporary installation for debugging or development purposes I’ve coped with adding an extra -I parameter to the shebang. Until last night when I fell over this monster API from hell. Not only did it demand an enormous amount of dependencies to be installed - it looked like every goddamn single 4-row test program and module needed each one of them.
For evaluating I would have to spend the whole night modifying source code. So I said “fuck it” and googled away.
The solution was of course painfully simple.
In ten years of tinkering with Apache I’ve managed to miss the directive that loads the mod_env module which can be use
to modify the environment variables that is set before calling CGI-scripts. Two rows to uncomment and asimple directive to add to the config:
SetEnv PERL5LIB “/path/to/libs”
mod_env’s directives can even be used in .htaccess overrides. Damn. After all these years …
