VMWare Server sucks!
Posted on July 8th, 2010 No commentsAt the office we use VMWare Server on a couple of different systems to run “appliance” based applications, the problem is every few months the Web interface suddenly screws up and all we get is 503 errors when attempting to login. I’ve searched high and low for the cause and solution to fix it, as far I can tell its occurs because the server randomly deletes or corrupts some important Tomcat related content. Then the only solution I’ve found to fixing this is completely uninstall VMWare Server, remove all the licenses, reboot the system and then re-install VMWare server.

Posted on April 7th, 2010 No commentsSorry the website had been down for a little while, there was an IP routing problem which I did not spot. I’m currently working on a High Availability LAMP setup, which I’ll post details and results for a little later, there should be some interesting trinkets in there for people looking for File replication, Database replication etc on a Linux based servers.

Question: How does source control work in a non-distributed environment?
Posted on February 5th, 2010 No commentsAt our company we currently all work on one shared network drive. The source code is not under any kind of source control, which for me is a big no-no. I’d love to be able to set up SVN and us all work of separate repositories and just commit back to a trunk or branch, but our tech manager doesn’t agree.

Strangers in the same boat – Christmas 2009
Posted on December 23rd, 2009 No commentsThis used to be the ‘hello world’ post. It’s taken from July to now – that’s 5 months – to pick a theme for my blog and then get around to editing it. I’m quite inclined to say that that’s pretty rubbish, but I won’t, because that’s the usual response I have to these kind of things.

cURL Tips – HTTPS requests
Posted on December 15th, 2009 No commentsToo many times have I seen this in cURL clients: curl_setopt ( $ch , CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST , false ) ; curl_setopt ( $ch , CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER , false ) ; Why is this bad? You leave yourself totally open to man-in-the-middle attacks, and makes SSL virtually pointless. Sure the data passed between the two servers would still be encrypted, but there is no way of verifying the server you’re talking to is the server you WANT to be talking to! My recommendation is that you verify the server is genuine by checking against the genuine CA certificate in PEM format.

Filling In Forms – Increasing Your Form Conversion
Posted on September 1st, 2009 No commentsThis kind of lazy form creation really annoys me. This company is trying to make users jump through hoops just so their form developers don’t have to bother reformatting the data into an acceptable format to them. It is absolutely critical when developing a form that must convert well to accept pretty much anything in the form.
