=== Beta LiveSession Logs ===<br />
<br />
Olajide: I've tried every method I could think of to get the Beta LiveSession Logs posted, tried using <nowiki><pre></nowiki> and <nowiki><nowiki></nowiki> or a combination of both or none of them, I also tried modifying the log. I removed all the <>(s) that looked like HTML / Wiki tags, I even tried removing the square brackets around the timestamp. Breaking the log into 2 didn't work as well. The error I get is: <center><pre>Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in <br />
/home/uniforms/public_html/wiki/includes/normal/UtfNormalData.inc on line 11</pre></center>I'll be back from church in about 2 or 3 hrs. Btw, what happened to the Beta Center?<br />

=== FileZilla FTPd ===<br />
<br />
I was tired of all those stupid errors and decided to install a newer version of FileZilla Server and Client with the official installer.<br />
<br />
My observations:<br />
<pre><br />
1) It doesn't work with W:\ (Subst Drive), when I tried to upload a<br />
file, an infinite loop occured. I was uploading the file over and<br />
over again and upon each upload the Client would ask me if I wanted<br />
to overwrite the original file. The file still counld't be found<br />
in the Directory List.<br />
<br />
2) I tried it with a folder in D:\ (Local Drive), I couldn't view<br />
the Directory List until I uploaded a file!<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
My conclusions:<br />
<pre><br />
1) FileZilla FTPd is a very buggy FTP Server (or maybe it has lots of<br />
hidden features)<br />
<br />
2) It doesn't work with Subst Drives.<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
For now, let's just stick with Good Old SlimFTPd ;)<br />

<br />
Olajide, where are you, it has been about 4 hours since I posted that last message :(<br />
<br />
Sorry MrX, i had an emergency DJ service.. thats why i didnt make it. Tomorrow tho... After i get back from the Music Store. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 09:16, 17 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Olajide, hopefully I'll be able to speak with you tonight (about 11pm-1am, your time). This is just here to ask you: have you noticed something wrong with the forum?<br />
<br />
=== I don't think I'm the only one having problems with the forum ===<br />
<br />
Hi, Olajide. You must have had a very busy weekend. So, never mind about the chat, I posted the message above yesterday anyway. However, you must have a look at the forum. It has been giving out weird error messages like [http://forum.uniformserver.com/index.php?showforum=2 this one] (you'll only see them when you try to list the topics in a particular forum) for about 2 days now and I don't think I'm the only one getting those error messages. Individual topics can still be viewed, but only if you know the exact URL for them.<br />
<br />
Yeah, didnt noticed that. Had a look at it today and gave a table crash error. Fixed it though. I think that was the problem. My bad, i've been extremely busy, you dont want to know... When i get on my computer i make sure to check to see if you are online though... as i am online now and you are not .. ;-) lol. Catch ya. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 23:49, 19 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
"Leave" means you're coming back home, right?<br />
<br />
=== Merge? ===<br />
<br />
Maybe if we merge your user talk page and mine, we could have one as long as Ric's. <br /> Anyway, when will you be back on IRC again :(<br />
<br />
LOL. Maybe.. lmao. I come on.. you are never online. I just dont come on as late anymore... Trying to get my sleep balance back. lol --[[Special:Contributions/76.122.67.235|76.122.67.235]] 10:01, 7 June 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
That's very good to hear, Olajide. <br /><br />
Now, I'll also get my sleep balance back, then we'll be able to meet :D <br /><br />
By the way, it's 10pm at your place now. Where are you :(<br />
<br />
=== Time ===<br />
<br />
Anyway, what time do you sleep and wake up now? <br /><br />
Are you usually still awake at 10pm (your time) now that you've changed your sleep schedule?<br />
<br />
=== Protection ===<br />
<br />
Olajide, the protection log is growing especially since we started to protect those pages ''created/started'' by the spam bots, and they're picking a new page (which they have to do so after we've protected the old page they created) to create every few weeks. So, do we just continue doing that and end up with many empty pages that are protected, or do we make it mandatory for those editing pages to register themselves first, or do we start banning those spam bot IPs and hoping that they don't get new ones? Another interesting thing is that the spam bots, although from different IPs, all edit the same page and from what I see, most of the time, they bring the same text with their edits (at least, on the same page), so it's like bot 1 edits with text 1 then bot 2 with text 2 then bot 3 with text 3 then bot 1 comes and brings along with him text 1 again. Anyway, you should think of something quick before an even scarier spam bot comes and creates 10 new pages or starts replacing the existing ones with its spam :D<br />
<br />
I had the setting to block that have have everyone registered. They did... another problem. But do you know where i can get the settings for tat again? It got lost when i was updating... at least that will reduce them... I wonder if they have captcha for MediaWiki. MrX, i will see you in the IRC when am stable. Am currently going through a lot plus housing. Things are hard right now so just maintaining. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 09:31, 17 June 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Olajide, [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Anti-spam_features this page] shows you a lot of information about how to prevent spam. It says that forcing people to register isn't a good solution. It also tells us that the captcha extension is called [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmEdit ConfirmEdit] :) <br /><br />
I'll be waiting for you on IRC, hope things get better soon.<br />
<br />
ConfirmEdit gives and error. I installed SimpleAntiBot or something like that. We'll test and see if we still get spammed. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 17:35, 17 June 2008 (UTC)<br />

Olajide, the protection log is growing especially since we started to protect those pages ''created/started'' by the spam bots, and they're picking a new page (which they have to do so after we've protected the old page they created) to create every few weeks. So, do we just continue doing that and end up with many empty pages that are protected, or do we make it mandatory for those editing pages to register themselves first, or do we start banning those spam bot IPs and hoping that they don't get new ones? Another interesting thing is that the spam bots, although from different IPs, all edit the same page and from what I see, most of the time, they bring the same text with their edits (at least, on the same page), so it's like bot 1 edits with text 1 then bot 2 with text 2 then bot 3 with text 3 then bot 1 comes and brings along with him text 1 again. Anyway, you should think of something quick before an even scarier spam bot comes and creates 10 new pages or starts replacing the existing ones with its spam :D</div>MrXhttps://wiki.uniformserver.com/index.php?title=User_talk:Olajideolaolorun&diff=3207User talk:Olajideolaolorun2008-06-17T03:41:27Z<p>MrX: </p>

=== FileZilla FTPd ===<br />
<br />
I was tired of all those stupid errors and decided to install a newer version of FileZilla Server and Client with the official installer.<br />
<br />
My observations:<br />
<pre><br />
1) It doesn't work with W:\ (Subst Drive), when I tried to upload a<br />
file, an infinite loop occured. I was uploading the file over and<br />
over again and upon each upload the Client would ask me if I wanted<br />
to overwrite the original file. The file still counld't be found<br />
in the Directory List.<br />
<br />
2) I tried it with a folder in D:\ (Local Drive), I couldn't view<br />
the Directory List until I uploaded a file!<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
My conclusions:<br />
<pre><br />
1) FileZilla FTPd is a very buggy FTP Server (or maybe it has lots of<br />
hidden features)<br />
<br />
2) It doesn't work with Subst Drives.<br />

For now, let's just stick with Good Old SlimFTPd ;)<br />

Hi, Olajide. You must have had a very busy weekend. So, never mind about the chat, I posted the message above yesterday anyway. However, you must have a look at the forum. It has been giving out weird error messages like [http://forum.uniformserver.com/index.php?showforum=2 this one] (you'll only see them when you try to list the topics in a particular forum) for about 2 days now and I don't think I'm the only one getting those error messages. Individual topics can still be viewed, but only if you know the exact URL for them.<br />
<br />
Yeah, didnt noticed that. Had a look at it today and gave a table crash error. Fixed it though. I think that was the problem. My bad, i've been extremely busy, you dont want to know... When i get on my computer i make sure to check to see if you are online though... as i am online now and you are not .. ;-) lol. Catch ya. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 23:49, 19 May 2008 (UTC)<br />

=== FileZilla FTPd ===<br />
<br />
I was tired of all those stupid errors and decided to install a newer version of FileZilla Server and Client with the official installer.<br />
<br />
My observations:<br />
<pre><br />
1) It doesn't work with W:\ (Subst Drive), when I tried to upload a<br />
file, an infinite loop occured. I was uploading the file over and<br />
over again and upon each upload the Client would ask me if I wanted<br />
to overwrite the original file. The file still counld't be found<br />
in the Directory List.<br />
<br />
2) I tried it with a folder in D:\ (Local Drive), I couldn't view<br />
the Directory List until I uploaded a file!<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
My conclusions:<br />
<pre><br />
1) FileZilla FTPd is a very buggy FTP Server (or maybe it has lots of<br />
hidden features)<br />
<br />
2) It doesn't work with Subst Drives.<br />

For now, let's just stick with Good Old SlimFTPd ;)<br />

Hi, Olajide. You must have had a very busy weekend. So, never mind about the chat, I posted the message above yesterday anyway. However, you must have a look at the forum. It has been giving out weird error messages like [http://forum.uniformserver.com/index.php?showforum=2 this one] (you'll only see them when you try to list the topics in a particular forum) for about 2 days now and I don't think I'm the only one getting those error messages. Individual topics can still be viewed, but only if you know the exact URL for them.<br />
<br />
Yeah, didnt noticed that. Had a look at it today and gave a table crash error. Fixed it though. I think that was the problem. My bad, i've been extremely busy, you dont want to know... When i get on my computer i make sure to check to see if you are online though... as i am online now and you are not .. ;-) lol. Catch ya. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 23:49, 19 May 2008 (UTC)<br />

=== FileZilla FTPd ===<br />
<br />
I was tired of all those stupid errors and decided to install a newer version of FileZilla Server and Client with the official installer.<br />
<br />
My observations:<br />
<pre><br />
1) It doesn't work with W:\ (Subst Drive), when I tried to upload a<br />
file, an infinite loop occured. I was uploading the file over and<br />
over again and upon each upload the Client would ask me if I wanted<br />
to overwrite the original file. The file still counld't be found<br />
in the Directory List.<br />
<br />
2) I tried it with a folder in D:\ (Local Drive), I couldn't view<br />
the Directory List until I uploaded a file!<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
My conclusions:<br />
<pre><br />
1) FileZilla FTPd is a very buggy FTP Server (or maybe it has lots of<br />
hidden features)<br />

Hi, Olajide. You must have had a very busy weekend. So, never mind about the chat, I posted the message above yesterday anyway. However, you must have a look at the forum. It has been giving out weird error messages like [http://forum.uniformserver.com/index.php?showforum=2 this one] (you'll only see them when you try to list the topics in a particular forum) for about 2 days now and I don't think I'm the only one getting those error messages.

<br />
Yeah, didnt noticed that. Had a look at it today and gave a table crash error. Fixed it though. I think that was the problem. My bad, i've been extremely busy, you dont want to know...

MrX, how about you put a signature so he knows??? lol. am umm Ric, do you think we should use the version number in the title?

Oh yeah.. categories! lol. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 08:48, 20 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Hi Olajide, well I have made a start with transferring pages as you can see from the number of edits have not mastered it yet. Anyway I have popped a new battery in the sat-nav and slowing finding my way around.<br />
<br />
Regarding the version number before the release of 4 if you upgrade 3.5 just up the number to 3.6 will avoid any confusion. There’s a question will there be a 3.6?<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 20:32, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Maybe someday I'll regret answering this on behalf of Olajide, but from what I've heard, I don't think there'll be a 3.6 :) <br /><br />
By the way, hi Ric :) <br /><br />
I '''guess''' one of the reasons why Olajide decided on such a big version jump was that 4.0 will come with Apache 2.2 and maybe because he also has some big plans for the Admin Panel :D<br />
<br />
Thanks for that bit of info. In all honesty I have hacked 3.5 to death on more than one occasion (ok out of its design spec) but straight out of the box it works fine so probably no need for 3.6.<br />
<br />
I think 4 needs to have a little more headroom, by this I mean increase in size with more functionality but not bloat ware. An interesting balancing act! When’s Olajide going to join the circus or his he already a member?<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 21:22, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Hey Ric, as MrX said, there will be no 3.6. We are maing a big jump to 4.0 from 3.5, due to most of the reason MrX also mentions ;-) lol. And umm, i am already a member of the circus. lol. Uniform Circus.. :) and yeah, everything takes time, and nothing is ever perfect, so everything is good Ric. I like what you've done so far and welcome to the Wiki. :) --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 22:58, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
I guess 4.0 will get a size increase, due to the fact that the Apache 2.2 binaries Olajide will be using is compiled with VC 2008 (aka VC9, released in November last year) and has OpenSSL enabled. So, we'll probably need to add the VC9 runtime(s) (unless their improvement in performance doesn't involve these) and OpenSSL DLLs to avoid some crazy DLL Hell ;)<br />
<br />
MrX, Ric is the one who compiled the Apache 2.2 Migrate. He is the developer in charge of that section of 4.0. I really havent asked him which one he used... --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 03:40, 23 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Ok, Olajide, maybe Ric should get a custom build of Apache with the version reply edited out :D <br /><br />
Anyway, Ric, have you tested your UniCenter Python plugin to see if it would run Python programs like [[wikipedia:MoinMoin|MoinMoin]]? Olajide: How about a [[wikipedia:FastCGI|mod_fcgid]] plugin for running Perl and Python?<br /><br />
<RMS>Ric: I also noticed that on your New Users Python Intro page you mentioned that you like the GNU Free Document<u>ation</u> License, you do know that that's what this wiki uses, right?</RMS> <br /><br />
Wow, this talk page has really grown in the past 24 hours :D<br />
<br />
----<br />
Security: Being new to the Wiki I am looking at security and how to protect pages. I have never knowingly published any files containing a virus or malicious content. Hence on the Wiki I will lock down two types of pages any containing an MD5 check sum along with the associated downloadable and any text file pertaining to a batch file.<br />
My tests confirm this is possible OK nothing is 100% secure that’s the real world. It’s all down to a reasonable degree of confidence.<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 22:51, 23 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
----<br />
Security: Hi Olajide thanks for the PM. What you propose is ideal from my point of view. I can lock down pages containing MD5 check sums more importantly the exe files (I like 7Z) cannot be tampered with. It’s not just about security but also user confidence when using the Wiki. Hey one added bonus no changes to the Wiki configs.<br />
<br />
When you have it in place I will upload the pages that require exe files.<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 22:21, 25 May 2008 (UTC)<br />

----<br />
Hi, Ric. May I know where you're getting the Apache 2.2 binaries (for 4.0) from?<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi I am not sure what Olajide has planed to use on 4 however the binaries I hacked around were:<br />
<br />
Apache 2.2.8<br />
Downloaded from: http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi<br />
Version: apache_2.2.8-win32-x86-openssl-0.9.8g.msi<br />

Well, this is a little strange, just read Olajide's message posted on 03:40, 23 May 2008 a few lines above. When I talked about the Apache 2.2 binaries, Olajide said that you were in charged of that, so I guess it is up to you to decide :) <br /><br />
Well, the binaries I mentioned above, while talking to Olajide are from http://www.apachelounge.com/download/, there are some module binaries there as well. <br /><br />
Since Olajide has put you in charged of this, I'm wondering if you have any comments on those binaries. I am also interested to know if you plan to include mod_ssl together with 4.0, or whether you would prefer to distribute that as a separate plugin.<br />
<br />
MrX, stop harassing Ric. Let him do what he has to do.. lol. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 08:08, 27 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
I was just trying to have a meaningful conversation :(<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi Mr X<br />
I apologise for not getting back. To be honest I am not sure where the mini-server binaries came from, most probably from Hunter that source was my favourite it really is a shame the site has closed. I say not sure because after my disk crash I lost some data. The mini-server info was on a sector or two I could not recover. Always meant to do a full back up but never got around to it.<br />
<br />
I really think now you can’t go wrong if you use binaries from http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi Apace Org. These will work fine on the mini-servers with no change. I am currently looking at a new write-up and now Apache Org is my first port of call.<br />
<br />
By the way I certainly respect your technical competence and views, after a clean OS install on my new hard drive I had problems with slimFTPd! I remembered you’re post on the forum, what can I say! Spot on, certainly resolved my problem.<br />
<br />
I very rarely can catch you or Olajide in real time on the forum due to the six-hour difference between USA and UK time. <br />
<br />
If I remember correctly you are now a Linux person only interested because I have tried several distributions and never been able to get a connection to my wireless router.<br />
<br />
All the best<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 21:34, 30 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
----<br />
Thank you so much for replying, Ric :) <br /><br />
Could I know more about the now closed "Hunter" site you were talking about? (A URL would be nice) <br /><br />
About the time difference, I'm 12 hours ahead of Olajide and 7 hours ahead of you. I'm sure we'll be able to find a suitable time to meet up.<br />
<br />
I mentioned the ApacheLounge binaries as on that site, they claim that their binaries are compiled with VC9 and the ones from Apache.org are compiled with VC6. I have no way of testing this without Windows, but I guess that means the binaries are also linked to the latest VC runtime library, which is probably why it has improved performance. Well, I guess that's all I have to say about the binaries. I just wanted to find out what you thought about the improved performance claim, if you don't think that's necessary, I'll respect your decision.<br />
<br />
Finally, Linux. Which distributions did you try? Did you install the distributions on your hard disk or did you use a LiveCD/DVD/USB? I don't have any experience with wireless routers, however, as far as I know, when that's not working, [[wikipedia:NdisWrapper|NDISwrapper]], a driver wrapper, is usually mentioned. There is a [http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/index.php?/component/option,com_openwiki/Itemid,33/id,list/ list of supported cards] on their site. I'm not sure if that's a suitable solution to your problem as I don't know why your network card was not detected by the distributions you tried -- because the proper drivers were not compiled into the kernel and then loaded or because your card is incompatible with Linux (not natively supported).<br />
<br />
Another thing, Ric, do you think it'll be better to put your article navigation bar (sorry, I couldn't find a better name for that) in a Template like what Olajide has done for the Development Status, Wiki News, and Did You Know sections in the [[Main Page]]?<br />
<br />
----<br />
Ric, in a few hours it will be a week since my last message. <br /> Please tell me what's the best way to contact you :(<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi Mr X<br />
<br />
Ya the passage of time, it just disappears hence the delay.<br />
<br />
Hunter provided compiled binaries before Apache started to meet this requirement and needs of Windows users. As for a link the site has gone however this may be [http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-users/200404.mbox/%3C1082830680.22963.70.camel@ptak%3E worth a read ]<br />
<br />
ApacheLounge vs Apache.org binaries to be honest I have never compared speed I am slightly biased towards Apache.org only because they have a superb archive of older versions. <br />
<br />
As for Linux I just can’t afford the time to do it justice, however I have recently tried Knoppix 5.3.1, which allowed me to connect to my router and Internet.<br />
<br />
Template for navigation bar, would be a good idea just that I am so new to this Wiki stuff I have now ideas how to implement it, again lack of time.<br />
<br />
“Ric, in a few hours it will be a week since my last message. <br />

Perhaps a PM on the forum, it probably wont guarantee any faster response time however you can be sure I will read it.<br />

Ric, when you've found enough time, maybe you could try [http://wubi.sourceforge.net/ Wubi]. It allows you to dual boot Linux and Windows by installing [http://ubuntu.com/ Ubuntu Linux] (which is probably one of the most new-user-friendly Linux distributions available) as a file on your existing Windows partition :)<br />
<br />
So, what time are you usually online and checking the forum or wiki?</div>MrXhttps://wiki.uniformserver.com/index.php?title=User_talk:Ric&diff=3018User talk:Ric2008-06-07T01:40:16Z<p>MrX: </p>

Welcome, Ric, hope to be able to have a nice chat with you sometime :)<br />
<br />
MrX, how about you put a signature so he knows??? lol. am umm Ric, do you think we should use the version number in the title? I think its better if we dont because if anything changes, it will most likely be updated on the wiki so i dont think we need to use the version numbers. Oh yeah.. categories! lol. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 08:48, 20 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Hi Olajide, well I have made a start with transferring pages as you can see from the number of edits have not mastered it yet. Anyway I have popped a new battery in the sat-nav and slowing finding my way around.<br />
<br />
Regarding the version number before the release of 4 if you upgrade 3.5 just up the number to 3.6 will avoid any confusion. There’s a question will there be a 3.6?<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 20:32, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Maybe someday I'll regret answering this on behalf of Olajide, but from what I've heard, I don't think there'll be a 3.6 :) <br /><br />
By the way, hi Ric :) <br /><br />
I '''guess''' one of the reasons why Olajide decided on such a big version jump was that 4.0 will come with Apache 2.2 and maybe because he also has some big plans for the Admin Panel :D<br />
<br />
Thanks for that bit of info. In all honesty I have hacked 3.5 to death on more than one occasion (ok out of its design spec) but straight out of the box it works fine so probably no need for 3.6.<br />
<br />
I think 4 needs to have a little more headroom, by this I mean increase in size with more functionality but not bloat ware. An interesting balancing act! When’s Olajide going to join the circus or his he already a member?<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 21:22, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Hey Ric, as MrX said, there will be no 3.6. We are maing a big jump to 4.0 from 3.5, due to most of the reason MrX also mentions ;-) lol. And umm, i am already a member of the circus. lol. Uniform Circus.. :) and yeah, everything takes time, and nothing is ever perfect, so everything is good Ric. I like what you've done so far and welcome to the Wiki. :) --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 22:58, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
I guess 4.0 will get a size increase, due to the fact that the Apache 2.2 binaries Olajide will be using is compiled with VC 2008 (aka VC9, released in November last year) and has OpenSSL enabled. So, we'll probably need to add the VC9 runtime(s) (unless their improvement in performance doesn't involve these) and OpenSSL DLLs to avoid some crazy DLL Hell ;)<br />
<br />
MrX, Ric is the one who compiled the Apache 2.2 Migrate. He is the developer in charge of that section of 4.0. I really havent asked him which one he used... --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 03:40, 23 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Ok, Olajide, maybe Ric should get a custom build of Apache with the version reply edited out :D <br /><br />
Anyway, Ric, have you tested your UniCenter Python plugin to see if it would run Python programs like [[wikipedia:MoinMoin|MoinMoin]]? Olajide: How about a [[wikipedia:FastCGI|mod_fcgid]] plugin for running Perl and Python?<br /><br />
<RMS>Ric: I also noticed that on your New Users Python Intro page you mentioned that you like the GNU Free Document<u>ation</u> License, you do know that that's what this wiki uses, right?</RMS> <br /><br />
Wow, this talk page has really grown in the past 24 hours :D<br />

Security: Being new to the Wiki I am looking at security and how to protect pages. I have never knowingly published any files containing a virus or malicious content. Hence on the Wiki I will lock down two types of pages any containing an MD5 check sum along with the associated downloadable and any text file pertaining to a batch file.<br />
My tests confirm this is possible OK nothing is 100% secure that’s the real world. It’s all down to a reasonable degree of confidence.<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 22:51, 23 May 2008 (UTC)<br />

Security: Hi Olajide thanks for the PM. What you propose is ideal from my point of view. I can lock down pages containing MD5 check sums more importantly the exe files (I like 7Z) cannot be tampered with. It’s not just about security but also user confidence when using the Wiki. Hey one added bonus no changes to the Wiki configs.<br />
<br />
When you have it in place I will upload the pages that require exe files.<br />

Hi, Ric. May I know where you're getting the Apache 2.2 binaries (for 4.0) from?<br />

Hi I am not sure what Olajide has planed to use on 4 however the binaries I hacked around were:<br />
<br />
Apache 2.2.8<br />

<br />
Hunter provided compiled binaries before Apache started to meet this requirement and needs of Windows users. As for a link the site has gone however this may be [http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-users/200404.mbox/%3C1082830680.22963.70.camel@ptak%3E worth a read ]<br />
<br />
ApacheLounge vs Apache.org binaries to be honest I have never compared speed I am slightly biased towards Apache.org only because they have a superb archive of older versions. <br />
<br />
As for Linux I just can’t afford the time to do it justice, however I have recently tried Knoppix 5.3.1, which allowed me to connect to my router and Internet.<br />
<br />
Template for navigation bar, would be a good idea just that I am so new to this Wiki stuff I have now ideas how to implement it, again lack of time.<br />

Ric, when you've found enough time, you could try [http://wubi.sourceforge.net/ Wubi]. It allows you to dual boot Linux and Windows by installing [http://ubuntu.com/ Ubuntu Linux] (which is probably one of the most new-user-friendly Linux distributions available) as a file on your Windows partition :)</div>MrXhttps://wiki.uniformserver.com/index.php?title=User_talk:Ric&diff=3016User talk:Ric2008-06-07T01:34:56Z<p>MrX: </p>

Welcome, Ric, hope to be able to have a nice chat with you sometime :)<br />
<br />
MrX, how about you put a signature so he knows??? lol. am umm Ric, do you think we should use the version number in the title? I think its better if we dont because if anything changes, it will most likely be updated on the wiki so i dont think we need to use the version numbers. Oh yeah.. categories! lol. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 08:48, 20 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Hi Olajide, well I have made a start with transferring pages as you can see from the number of edits have not mastered it yet. Anyway I have popped a new battery in the sat-nav and slowing finding my way around.<br />
<br />
Regarding the version number before the release of 4 if you upgrade 3.5 just up the number to 3.6 will avoid any confusion. There’s a question will there be a 3.6?<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 20:32, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Maybe someday I'll regret answering this on behalf of Olajide, but from what I've heard, I don't think there'll be a 3.6 :) <br /><br />
By the way, hi Ric :) <br /><br />
I '''guess''' one of the reasons why Olajide decided on such a big version jump was that 4.0 will come with Apache 2.2 and maybe because he also has some big plans for the Admin Panel :D<br />
<br />
Thanks for that bit of info. In all honesty I have hacked 3.5 to death on more than one occasion (ok out of its design spec) but straight out of the box it works fine so probably no need for 3.6.<br />
<br />
I think 4 needs to have a little more headroom, by this I mean increase in size with more functionality but not bloat ware. An interesting balancing act! When’s Olajide going to join the circus or his he already a member?<br />
<br />

<br />
Hey Ric, as MrX said, there will be no 3.6. We are maing a big jump to 4.0 from 3.5, due to most of the reason MrX also mentions ;-) lol. And umm, i am already a member of the circus. lol. Uniform Circus.. :) and yeah, everything takes time, and nothing is ever perfect, so everything is good Ric. I like what you've done so far and welcome to the Wiki. :) --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 22:58, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
I guess 4.0 will get a size increase, due to the fact that the Apache 2.2 binaries Olajide will be using is compiled with VC 2008 (aka VC9, released in November last year) and has OpenSSL enabled. So, we'll probably need to add the VC9 runtime(s) (unless their improvement in performance doesn't involve these) and OpenSSL DLLs to avoid some crazy DLL Hell ;)<br />
<br />
MrX, Ric is the one who compiled the Apache 2.2 Migrate. He is the developer in charge of that section of 4.0. I really havent asked him which one he used... --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 03:40, 23 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Ok, Olajide, maybe Ric should get a custom build of Apache with the version reply edited out :D <br /><br />
Anyway, Ric, have you tested your UniCenter Python plugin to see if it would run Python programs like [[wikipedia:MoinMoin|MoinMoin]]? Olajide: How about a [[wikipedia:FastCGI|mod_fcgid]] plugin for running Perl and Python?<br /><br />
<RMS>Ric: I also noticed that on your New Users Python Intro page you mentioned that you like the GNU Free Document<u>ation</u> License, you do know that that's what this wiki uses, right?</RMS> <br /><br />

Security: Being new to the Wiki I am looking at security and how to protect pages. I have never knowingly published any files containing a virus or malicious content.

My tests confirm this is possible OK nothing is 100% secure that’s the real world. It’s all down to a reasonable degree of confidence.<br />

Security: Hi Olajide thanks for the PM. What you propose is ideal from my point of view. I can lock down pages containing MD5 check sums more importantly the exe files (I like 7Z) cannot be tampered with. It’s not just about security but also user confidence when using the Wiki. Hey one added bonus no changes to the Wiki configs.<br />
<br />
When you have it in place I will upload the pages that require exe files.<br />

[[User:Ric|Ric]] 22:21, 25 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi, Ric. May I know where you're getting the Apache 2.2 binaries (for 4.0) from?<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi I am not sure what Olajide has planed to use on 4 however the binaries I hacked around were:<br />
<br />
Apache 2.2.8<br />
Downloaded from: http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi<br />
Version: apache_2.2.8-win32-x86-openssl-0.9.8g.msi<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 15:52, 26 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
----<br />
I'm guessing that those were the ones you used for your mini servers, right? <br /><br />
Well, this is a little strange, just read Olajide's message posted on 03:40, 23 May 2008 a few lines above. When I talked about the Apache 2.2 binaries, Olajide said that you were in charged of that, so I guess it is up to you to decide :) <br /><br />
Well, the binaries I mentioned above, while talking to Olajide are from http://www.apachelounge.com/download/, there are some module binaries there as well. <br /><br />
Since Olajide has put you in charged of this, I'm wondering if you have any comments on those binaries. I am also interested to know if you plan to include mod_ssl together with 4.0, or whether you would prefer to distribute that as a separate plugin.<br />
<br />
MrX, stop harassing Ric. Let him do what he has to do.. lol. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 08:08, 27 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
I was just trying to have a meaningful conversation :(<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi Mr X<br />
I apologise for not getting back. To be honest I am not sure where the mini-server binaries came from, most probably from Hunter that source was my favourite it really is a shame the site has closed. I say not sure because after my disk crash I lost some data. The mini-server info was on a sector or two I could not recover. Always meant to do a full back up but never got around to it.<br />
<br />
I really think now you can’t go wrong if you use binaries from http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi Apace Org. These will work fine on the mini-servers with no change. I am currently looking at a new write-up and now Apache Org is my first port of call.<br />
<br />
By the way I certainly respect your technical competence and views, after a clean OS install on my new hard drive I had problems with slimFTPd! I remembered you’re post on the forum, what can I say! Spot on, certainly resolved my problem.<br />
<br />
I very rarely can catch you or Olajide in real time on the forum due to the six-hour difference between USA and UK time. <br />
<br />
If I remember correctly you are now a Linux person only interested because I have tried several distributions and never been able to get a connection to my wireless router.<br />
<br />
All the best<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 21:34, 30 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
----<br />
Thank you so much for replying, Ric :) <br /><br />
Could I know more about the now closed "Hunter" site you were talking about? (A URL would be nice) <br /><br />
About the time difference, I'm 12 hours ahead of Olajide and 7 hours ahead of you. I'm sure we'll be able to find a suitable time to meet up.<br />
<br />
I mentioned the ApacheLounge binaries as on that site, they claim that their binaries are compiled with VC9 and the ones from Apache.org are compiled with VC6. I have no way of testing this without Windows, but I guess that means the binaries are also linked to the latest VC runtime library, which is probably why it has improved performance. Well, I guess that's all I have to say about the binaries. I just wanted to find out what you thought about the improved performance claim, if you don't think that's necessary, I'll respect your decision.<br />
<br />
Finally, Linux. Which distributions did you try? Did you install the distributions on your hard disk or did you use a LiveCD/DVD/USB? I don't have any experience with wireless routers, however, as far as I know, when that's not working, [[wikipedia:NdisWrapper|NDISwrapper]], a driver wrapper, is usually mentioned. There is a [http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/index.php?/component/option,com_openwiki/Itemid,33/id,list/ list of supported cards] on their site. I'm not sure if that's a suitable solution to your problem as I don't know why your network card was not detected by the distributions you tried -- because the proper drivers were not compiled into the kernel and then loaded or because your card is incompatible with Linux (not natively supported).<br />
<br />
Another thing, Ric, do you think it'll be better to put your article navigation bar (sorry, I couldn't find a better name for that) in a Template like what Olajide has done for the Development Status, Wiki News, and Did You Know sections in the [[Main Page]]?<br />

Security: Hi Olajide thanks for the PM. What you propose is ideal from my point of view. I can lock down pages containing MD5 check sums more importantly the exe files (I like 7Z) cannot be tampered with. It’s not just about security but also user confidence when using the Wiki. Hey one added bonus no changes to the Wiki configs.<br />
<br />
When you have it in place I will upload the pages that require exe files.<br />

Hi, Ric. May I know where you're getting the Apache 2.2 binaries (for 4.0) from?<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi I am not sure what Olajide has planed to use on 4 however the binaries I hacked around were:<br />
<br />
Apache 2.2.8<br />
Downloaded from: http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi<br />
Version: apache_2.2.8-win32-x86-openssl-0.9.8g.msi<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 15:52, 26 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
----<br />
I'm guessing that those were the ones you used for your mini servers, right? <br /><br />
Well, this is a little strange, just read Olajide's message posted on 03:40, 23 May 2008 a few lines above. When I talked about the Apache 2.2 binaries, Olajide said that you were in charged of that, so I guess it is up to you to decide :) <br /><br />
Well, the binaries I mentioned above, while talking to Olajide are from http://www.apachelounge.com/download/, there are some module binaries there as well. <br /><br />
Since Olajide has put you in charged of this, I'm wondering if you have any comments on those binaries. I am also interested to know if you plan to include mod_ssl together with 4.0, or whether you would prefer to distribute that as a separate plugin.<br />
<br />
MrX, stop harassing Ric. Let him do what he has to do.. lol. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 08:08, 27 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
I was just trying to have a meaningful conversation :(<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi Mr X<br />
I apologise for not getting back. To be honest I am not sure where the mini-server binaries came from, most probably from Hunter that source was my favourite it really is a shame the site has closed. I say not sure because after my disk crash I lost some data. The mini-server info was on a sector or two I could not recover. Always meant to do a full back up but never got around to it.<br />
<br />
I really think now you can’t go wrong if you use binaries from http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi Apace Org. These will work fine on the mini-servers with no change. I am currently looking at a new write-up and now Apache Org is my first port of call.<br />
<br />
By the way I certainly respect your technical competence and views, after a clean OS install on my new hard drive I had problems with slimFTPd! I remembered you’re post on the forum, what can I say! Spot on, certainly resolved my problem.<br />
<br />
I very rarely can catch you or Olajide in real time on the forum due to the six-hour difference between USA and UK time. <br />
<br />
If I remember correctly you are now a Linux person only interested because I have tried several distributions and never been able to get a connection to my wireless router.<br />
<br />
All the best<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 21:34, 30 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
----<br />
Thank you so much for replying, Ric :) <br /><br />
Could I know more about the now closed "Hunter" site you were talking about? (A URL would be nice) <br /><br />
About the time difference, I'm 12 hours ahead of Olajide and 7 hours ahead of you. I'm sure we'll be able to find a suitable time to meet up.<br />
<br />
I mentioned the ApacheLounge binaries as on that site, they claim that their binaries are compiled with VC9 and the ones from Apache.org are compiled with VC6. I have no way of testing this without Windows, but I guess that means the binaries are also linked to the latest VC runtime library, which is probably why it has improved performance. Well, I guess that's all I have to say about the binaries. I just wanted to find out what you thought about the improved performance claim, if you don't think that's necessary, I'll respect your decision.<br />
<br />
Finally, Linux. Which distributions did you try? Did you install the distributions on your hard disk or did you use a LiveCD/DVD/USB? I don't have any experience with wireless routers, however, as far as I know, when that's not working, [[wikipedia:NdisWrapper|NDISwrapper]], a driver wrapper, is usually mentioned. There is a [http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/index.php?/component/option,com_openwiki/Itemid,33/id,list/ list of supported cards] on their site. I'm not sure if that's a suitable solution to your problem as I don't know why your network card was not detected by the distributions you tried -- because the proper drivers were not compiled into the kernel and then loaded or because your card is incompatible with Linux (not natively supported).<br />
<br />
Another thing, Ric, do you think it'll be better to put your article navigation bar (sorry, I couldn't find a better name for that) in a Template like what Olajide has done for the Development Status, Wiki News, and Did You Know sections in the [[Main Page]]?<br />
<br />
----<br />
Ric, in a few hours it will be a week since my last message. Please tell me what's the best way to contact you :(</div>MrXhttps://wiki.uniformserver.com/index.php?title=New_Users:_Problems_Section&diff=2980New Users: Problems Section2008-05-31T08:27:25Z<p>MrX: Linked IIS and Skype to their respective Wikipedia articles</p>

'''Common Problems and Issues (3.5 - Apollo)'''<br />
|}<br />
It really is a shame you are reading this page, you have obviously encountered problems either during installation or normal operation.<br />
In general these problems are common to running any other '''WAMP''' installation on a home PC. I have tailored this page specifically for new users unsing UniServer 3.5-Apollo .<br />
<br />
Invariably installation problems are conflicts with existing software hence I list these first and attempt to point you in the right direction. Other problems are application specific these I cover as best as I can.<br />
<br />
== Is port 80 being used ==<br />
If port 80 is being used by another service or server Uniform Server will not start. Before starting Uniserver make sure you do not have another service running on Port 80. The following check works on XP home and XP Pro:<br />
<br />
# Start a command prompt '''start''' > '''run''' > type in '''cmd'''<br />
# At the command prompt type '''netstat -ano | find "LISTENING" | find ":80"'''<br />
<br />
This produces a list of what ports are being occupied. Any IP followed by ''':80''' means port 80 is being used.<br />
You now have the following options:<br />
<br />
# Disable (kill process) the offending items<br />
## How to do this using [[#port 80 kill process XP Pro | XP Pro]]<br />
## How to do this using [[#port 80 kill process XP Home | XP Home]]<br />
# The ideal is to Delete the offending items these are the main culprits:<br />
## [[wikipedia:Internet Information Services|IIS]]<br />
## [[wikipedia:Skype|Skype]]<br />
# As a last resort you can change [[#Change UniServer Listening Port | Uniserver Listening Port]] not my choice.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== port 80 kill process XP Pro ==<br />
You can kill the processes that use port 80 on XP Pro as follows:<br />
<br />
<small>''{By Mr X}''</small><br />
<br />
# Start the Command Prompt and then type '''netstat -ano | find "LISTENING" | find ":80"'''<br />
## You'll see a bunch of stuff like "TCP x.x.x.x:80 x.x.x.x:0 LISTENING '''number'''", what we're interested in here is '''number''', if there are more than one (which normally shouldn't happen), repeat the steps below for each one<br />
# Type '''tasklist /SVC /FI "PID number"''', replace number with the one you saw after executing the first command.<br />
## You'll see 3 lines of stuff, but we're only interested in the last line, which should be something like '''program number service''', if program is Skype.exe, you can '''change the port''' it listens on; if <service> is not N/A then proceed to the next step<br />
# Type '''net stop service''', replace '''service''' with the one displayed after executing the command above (it shouldn't have any spaces).<br />
## You should see something like "The xxxx service was stopped successfully", this means that you've got rid of the service (probably IIS) that was using port 80 (and thus making you unable to access Uniform Server);<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
== port 80 kill process XP Home ==<br />
XP home does not support the tasklist command. A better alternative for both xp pro and home is to use:<br />
<br />
'''procexp.exe from Sysinternals'''<br />
<br />
While checking to see if it still existed I was surprised to find that Microsoft acquired Sysinternals in July, 2006.<br />
<br />
I was even more surprised that these tools can still be downloaded for free: [http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/ProcessExplorer.mspx Process Explorer for Windows]<br />
<br />
It is a single file and well worth poping on your memory stick.<br />
<br />
'''Using'''<br />
<br />
The easiest way to use this tool is to obtain a list of what is running on port 80 using:<br />
<br />
# Start the Command Prompt and then type netstat -ano | find "LISTENING" | find ":80"<br />
## You'll see a bunch of stuff like "'''TCP x.x.x.x:80 x.x.x.x:0 LISTENING number'''", what we're interested in here is '''number''' the '''PID'''<br />
# Now run procexp.exe look down the list of PID's and find the ones from the above step. You now have the process name and possibly a description.<br />
# Right click on the file name and select '''Kill Process''' repeat for all the above. Now start UniServer you will find it now works.<br />
<br />
All you need to do now is decide what you want to do with the offending programs (they will restart next time you reboot) either delete or change the listening ports.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== Unistall IIS ==<br />
'''XP Pro''' comes with '''Windows IIS''' (Windows Internet Information Server) pre-installed, the following details how to remove it.<br><br />
Note: '''XP Home''' does not have IIS installed hence not a problem.<br />
<br />
To uninstall IIS using Add or Remove a Windows Component in Control Panel<br />
<br />
# From the '''Start''' menu, click '''Control Panel'''.<br />
# Double-click '''Add or Remove Programs'''.<br />
# Click '''Add/Remove Windows Components'''.<br />
# In the '''Components''' list click the '''Application Server check bo'''x.<br />
# Click '''Next'''.<br />
# Click '''Close''' when un-installation of IIS is complete.<br />
<br />
''Alternative method''<br />
<br />
'''To uninstall IIS using the Configure Your Server Wizard'''<br />
<br />
# From the '''Start''' menu, click '''Manage Your Server'''.<br />
# Under '''Managing Your Server Roles''', click '''Add or remove a role'''.<br />
# Read the preliminary steps in the '''Configure Your Server Wizard''' and click '''Next'''.<br />
# Under Server Role, click Application server (IIS, ASP.NET) and then click Next.<br />
# In the '''Role Removal Configuration''' dialog, check the '''Remove the application server''' role check box.<br />
# Complete the wizard, and then click '''Finish'''.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== Disable IIS ==<br />
If you must have IIS on your machine you have two alternatives as follows:<br />
<br />
You can disable IIS by using the Internet Information Services applet in the Administrative tools area of Control panel.<br />
<br />
# Select the '''Default Web Site''' element<br />
# Right click it<br />
# Now click '''Stop'''.<br />
<br />
Alternatively change [[#Change UniServer Listening Port | Uniserver Listening Port]]<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== Skype ==<br />
Skype is a little piece of software that lets you make free telephone calls anywhere in the world to another Skype user.<br />
They like Uniserver have their own problems with firewalls check out this link. Skype may and does use port 80 this conflicts with Uniserver however it is quite an obliging piece of software in that it can share port 80 or be moved on.<br />
<br />
'''Shared port'''<br />
<br />
I have not confirmed this works but worth a try:<br />
<br />
# Stop Uniserver<br />
# Stop Skype<br />
# '''Start''' Uniserver<br />
# Then '''start''' Skype<br />
<br />
If this solution works let me know! However the preferred solution is that recommended by Olajide:<br />
<br />
'''Move it on'''<br />
<br />
Move Skype to another port<br />
<br />
# '''Skype''' > '''Tools''' > '''Options''' > '''Connections'''<br />
# '''Change''' the port to something like '''85(incoming)'''. Check that both Uniserver and Skype are happy or try another port.<br />
<br />
PS I trust you have killed off... [[#Unistall IIS | IIS]] that's another story.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== Change UniServer Listening Port ==<br />
If you must! you can change Uniform Server's listening port as follows:<br />
=== Change port number Method 1 ===<br />
<br />
If you are changing the port because of a conflict and Apache cannot be started you need to open the file '''httpd.conf''' located in folder:<br />
<br />
<nowiki>*</nowiki>'''\Uniform Server\udrive\usr\local\apache2\conf'''<br />
<br />
# Choose a suitable alternative port eg 8080<br />
# Change '''Server Name''' to read '''localhost:8080''' (line number 266)<br />
# Change '''Listen''' to read '''8080''' (line number 125)<br />
# Save the file.<br />
# '''Re-start the server'''. You will not be redirected to apanel so type '''<nowiki>http://localhost:8080/apanel/</nowiki>''' into your browser address bar.<br />
# Click on '''Apache configuration''' ('''''do not change any values''''')<br />
# Click on '''Save''' (This automatically changes all other dependent files just saves you changing these manually)<br />
# '''Re-start the server''' (This time you will be re-directed to apanel all dependents have been changed.)<br />
<br />
Check out notes 1-4 below.<br />
<br />
=== Change port number Method 2 ===<br />
If Apache is running you can use the following method:<br />
<br />
# Start apanel by typing the following into your browser address bar: '''<nowiki>http://localhost/apanel/</nowiki>'''<br />
# Click on '''Apache Configuration''' (menu on the left) choose a suitable alternative port eg 8080<br />
# Change '''Server Name:''' to read '''localhost:8080'''<br />
# Change '''Listen:''' to read '''8080'''<br />
# Click '''save'''<br />
# '''Restart''' your server for the changes to take place.<br />
<br />
Check out notes 1-4 below<br />
<br />
'''''Note 1:'''''<br />
<br />
Your server will now use port '''8080''' to access '''apanel'''. When the server re-starts the port is automatically inserted for you. After redirection your browser will display '''<nowiki>http://localhost:8080/apanel/</nowiki>''' in your browser address bar. When you start apanel manually remember to include the port number.<br />
<br />
'''''Note 2:'''''<br />
<br />
Remember this also applies to your web site for example to access your index page use '''<nowiki>http://localhost:8080/index.html</nowiki>'''<br />
''<br />
'''Note 3:'''''<br />
<br />
If your servers are on line and registered for example a domain '''<nowiki>www.fred.com</nowiki>''' to access your site a user needs to type into their browser address bar '''<nowiki>http://www.fred.com:8080/index.html</nowiki>'''<br />
''<br />
'''Note 4:'''''<br />
<br />
If you must change your server port '''''only do it for testing purposes'''''. Never run a real website on any other port other than '''port 80''', remember all browsers default to this standard port 80.<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Disable warning message ====<br />
<br />
After changing Apache listening port attempting to either start or stop the MySQL server from apanel will result in the following warning:<br />
<pre><br />
» Security Alert!<br />
Possible Attack<br />
HTTP_REFERER is not localhost, but 'http://localhost:8080/apanel/navigation.php'.<br />
To disable this warning go: /home/admin/www/cgi-bin/includes/lang/en/secure.pm<br />
</pre><br />
It’s not just a warning it prevents you starting or stopping the server.<br />
<br />
'''Solution:'''<br />
# Open file: '''secure.pm'''<br> Located in folder: /home/admin/www/cgi-bin/includes/lang/en<br />
# Just below this line:<br><nowiki>#</nowiki> If you want to disable security check - comment the following lines with <nowiki>#</nowiki>.<br>Add this:<br>'''return 1;'''<br />
<br />
Note: You could comment the lines as stated however '''return 1''' saves typing.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== HTTP_REFERER ==<br />
'''What is it'''<br />
<br />
What is this referrer thing? When you click a link to go to a new Internet page, your browser secretly ('''normal operation''') sends along with the request the domain address of the current page. This is called the '''referrer'''. Among other things it can be used for data logging to find out where a user came from. Uniform Server uses the referrer to check the validly of a domain that can access the admin area. Only localhost has this privilege all external access are denied.<br />
<br />
'''Security'''<br />
<br />
When you receive this error message '''HTTP_REFERER''' is not localhost; confirms the security check is working. You are told to disable the security check by commenting out the offending lines in /home/admin/www/cgi-bin/secure.pm. This is masking the real problem.<br />
<br />
'''''Scenarios'''''<br />
<br />
There are two scenarios that cause the error message:<br />
<br />
# After a fresh install you have access to apanel, using any of the control links you receive the following error message:<br />
## '''HTTP_REFERER is not localhost. but '.''''<br />
# You are an advanced user and changed the Apache listening port the error message will be similar to this:<br />
## '''HTTP_REFERER is not localhost. but <nowiki>'http://localhost:81/apanel/navigation.php'</nowiki>'''.<br />
<br />
''Scenario 1)''' There are two possible causes<br />
<br />
# Depending on your firewall settings the referrer can be filtered out to prevent your last page identity being obtained. This is known as stealth well the bottom line, it is this that creates the error message because the referrer has been removed and prevents access by localhost.<br />
# To add insult to injury you may find your browser has been set to prevent sending the referrer.<br />
<br />
::*The solution is to set your firewall so it does not filter out the referrer for localhost. All fire walls have a different procedure to do this I have listed a few of the common ones see HTTP_REFER solution 1 I have also included some of the common browsers.<br />
<br />
'''Scenario 2)''' Self inflicted<br />
<br />
::* The solution requires modification to several files these are detailed in [[#Change UniServer Listening Port | Changining UniServer Listening Port]].<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
=== HTTP_REFER solution 1 ===<br />
If for some reason HTTP_REFER has been filtered out by either your Firewall or browser it will activate Uniform server's security and block access to admin.<br />
The solution is to allow HTTP_REFER by setting your firewall or browser accordingly. This page includes some of the common browsers and fire walls to get you started.<br />
<br />
<div style="width:80%; background:#FBD6D6; padding:4px; border:1px solid red; text-align:center"><br />
'''Note:''' To check if it is a firewall issue '''DISCONNECT FROM THE INTERNET''' and turn your firewall off.<br> Check to see if you still get the error message.<br> If you do it is most likely a browser issue and not a firewall problem.<br><br />

<br />
== Dross and Floss ==<br />
<br />
These are items that get left behind after uninstalling programs either because the uninstaller is inefficient or you are informed they are shared files and leaving them will do no harm!.<br />
<br />
If you have ever installed individual installation of Apache or MySQL and uninstalled them two files are likely to remain on your PC these are '''PHP.ini''' and '''LIBMYSQL.DLL''' and remain on the system path.<br />
<br />
A conflict occurs when UniServer’s PHP or MySQL programs search for these files.<br />
* They first look along the system path and use these files if found.<br />
* If not they search their local folders.<br />
<br />
These programs are designed to work in this manner and the solution is to run a '''search and delete''' all copies that are not associated with Uniform Server.<br />
<br />
'''Note:''' You can have as many copies of UniServer each with their local copies of these files and have no conflicts.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== Cached to death ==<br />
<br />
This is one of those areas that is not a general problem but specific when testing. If you have more than one installation of UniServer and run tests an error in one percolates to the other! Even more thought provoking download a new copy and the problem still persists. In the forum I believe I have seen this theme run through many threads.<br />
<br />
The problem arises because a browser caches pages, when a page is re-loaded invariably the browser does not update that page unless specifically requested but loads it from cache. If that page or related pages contain errors and you fire up a new server these page can be loaded in place of the new ones as expected. You may have resolved the problem but still see the errors from your previous server tests.<br />
<br />
The answer is to clear all caches before doing any new tests you could always disable caching but that has problems in its own right.<br />
<br />
Fore Firefox clear the caches as follows:<br />
<br />
Tools > options > advanced > network > cache clear now<br />
Restart to clear the memory cache.<br />
<br />
Note: To clear a single page in Firefox '''hold down''' the '''shift key''' down click the '''page refresh''' button<br />

'''MySQL creating users and setting permissions using MySQL console'''<br />
|}<br />
MySQL is a multi-user database, you can set up several different accounts on the same server with many varied permissions given to each user. This ability is part of what makes MySQL so powerful. You can use either MySQL console or phpMyAdmin to create users and grant permissions. This page focuses on using MySQL console. Not intended as a definitive guide but more of an introduction to show you how to access and run MySQL console within the UniServer environment. <br />
== MySQL Privileges ==<br />
MySQL privileges allow each user to access and utilize only areas they need to perform their tasks. This prevents a user from accidentally accessing an area where he or she is not allowed access this adds to the security of the MySQL server.<br />
<br />
When connecting to a MySQL server, the '''host''' from which connection is made and a user '''name''' specified determines that users identity. This identity informs MySQL to allow access to the server and to assign privileges defined for this user.<br />
<br />
== MySQL console application ==<br />
MySQL console is an integral application of MYSQL you run this application from a command prompt on the machine that is running your MySQL server.<br />
<br />
I have assumed you are using Uniform Server defaults that is '''drive W''' and MySQL user '''name=root''' and '''password=root'''. (Important before going live remember to change your '''[[New Users: Security#MySQL Server Configuration | MySQL root password ]]''')<br />
<br />
With both Apache and MySQL, servers running start a command window and navigate to where mysql.exe is located.<br />
<br />
=== Command window ===<br />
There are two ways to start a command window:<br />
<br />
* '''Start''' > click on '''Run''' > type '''cmd''' click '''OK'''<br />
Alternatively<br />
* Click '''Start''' > '''All Programs''' > '''Accessories''' > click '''Command Prompt '''<br />
<br />
Either method opens a command window the flashing curssor is refered to as the '''command prompt'''.<br />
<br />
=== Navigate to mysql.exe ===<br />
<table><br />
<tr><br />
<td valign="top" width="450"><br />
Type following lines into the command prompt:<br />
*'''W:'''<br />
*'''cd usr\local\mysql\bin'''<br />
<br />
This selects the folder where you run '''MySQL console'''<br />
</td><br />
<td width="6"><br />
&nbsp;<br />
<td><br />
<td><br />
Dialogue in the command prompt looks similar to this:<br />
<br />
<div style="background:#f0f0f0; border:1px solid #000000; padding-left:10px; width:60%"><br />
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]<br><br />

<br />
C:\Documents and Settings\mpg>'''w:'''<br><br />
W:\>'''cd usr\local\mysql\bin'''<br><br />
W:\usr\local\mysql\bin>_<br />
</div><br />
</td><br />
</tr><br />
</table><br />
=== Start MySQL console ===<br />
<table><br />
<tr><br />
<td valign="top" width="450"><br />
To start MySQL console, at the command prompt, type the following:<br />
* '''mysql –uroot –proot'''<br />
<br />
<br />
'''''Note 1:''''' Do not copy and paste you must type it in.<br />
<br />
* '''-u''' stands for user name. Immediately followed by user name (no spaces)<br />
* '''-p''' stands for user password. Immediately followed by password (no spaces)<br />
<br />
'''''Note 2:''''' The '''mysql>''' prompt indicates you are in MySQL monitor and it is ready to receive your commands.<br />
<br />
'''''Note 3:''''' Quit the monitor by typing '''exit'''<br />
</td><br />
<td width="6"><br />
&nbsp;<br />
<td><br />
<td><br />
On successful connection you will receive a message similar to this:<br />
<br />
<div style="background:#f0f0f0; border:1px solid #000000; padding-left:10px; width:60%"><br />
<br />
W:\usr\local\mysql\bin>'''mysql -uroot -proot'''<br><br />
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.<br><br />
Your MySQL connection id is 216<br><br />
Server version: 5.0.41-community-nt MySQL Community Edition (GPL)<br><br />
<br />
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.<br><br />
<br />
mysql><br />
</div><br />
</td><br />
</tr><br />
</table><br />
To create users and set permissions, you must have the necessary permissions to do so. By default, Uniform Server's MySQL has such an account named '''root''' with password root (remember to change this) and all required permissions. It is constrained to run on local host access only.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== Setting up a new user ==<br />
We are now ready to setup some MySQL user accounts. The statements that follow are entered in at the MySQL monitor (console) prompt. Be sure to include all of the '''quotations''' in the statements and to '''end each statement''' with a '''semicolon'''.<br />
<br />
=== Example 1 ===<br />
For our first example, we have a user named '''mpg3''' with a password '''mpg3abc''' we trust this person so will grant all privileges. He wants a database named '''mpg3_db''' accessible from '''local host'''.<br />
<br />
Start MySQL monitor and enter:<br />
'''create database mpg3_db;'''<br />
<br />
followed by:<br />
'''grant all privileges on mpg3_db.* to mpg3@"localhost" identified by 'mpg3abc';'''<br />
<br />
* First line creates a database named '''mpg3_db'''. This step can be left out if the database already exists.<br />
* Second line sets up the user and what privileges the user is allowed to use. Looking at this line in greater detail.<br />
<br />
:* '''grant all privileges on mpg3_db.*''' Specifies the database (mp3_db) a user will be allowed to access. The '''.*''' indicates that this user is permitted to work with all of the tables within the database mpg_db. (You can limit the user to one table, the name of that table should be specified after the period in place of the asterisk.<br />
:* '''mpg3@"localhost"''' This sets up the user information. The user named mpg3 is being created. The portion after the '''@''' indicates the host from which this user is allowed to connect. In this case, this user can only connect from the localhost.<br />
:* '''mpg3abc''' This is the password to be used by the user. (Always use a password that contains both random alpha and numeric characters.)<br />
<br />
=== Example 2 ===<br />
For our second example we have a user named '''mpg4''' with a password '''mpg4abc''' we trust this person hence will grant all privileges. He wants a database named '''mpg4_db''' accessible from '''any host'''.<br />
<br />
Start MySQL monitor and enter:<br />
'''create database mpg4_db;<br />
'''<br />
followed by:<br />
'''grant all privileges on *.* to mpg4@"localhost" identified by 'mpg4abc';'''<br />
<br />
As with the previous example, lets look at the statement piece by piece.<br />
<br />
* '''<nowiki>*.*</nowiki>''' This indicates that the user will be permitted to connect to all of the MySQL databases and all of the tables contained in those databases.<br />
* '''mpg4@"%"''' This sets up the user information. The user named mpg4 is being created. This time a host of "%" is used. This indicates that this user may connect to the database from any host or IP number. A more secure way to do this is to specify the IP number of the user, however sometimes this is not possible.<br />
*''''mpg4abc'''' As in the previous example sets the password.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
== Reducing User Privileges ==<br />
In both of the above examples, we created users with all privileges granted on their respective database(s). If the user is connecting from the Internet or a remote workstation, reduce these privileges or kiss your database good bye. Use the following statement to reduce privileges:<br />
<br />
'''grant select,insert,update,delete,create,drop on mpg3_db.* to mpg3@"%" identified by 'mpg3abc';'''<br />
<br />
With this statement, the user mpg3 is allowed limited access to the database mpg3_db from any host ("%") using the password mpg3abc.<br />
<br />
The '''grant''' statement specifies that this user is only allowed to run a limited amount of statements on the MySQL server. This user will be allowed to: '''select''' records, '''insert''' records, '''update''' records, '''delete''' records, '''create''' databases, and '''DROP''' (delete) DATABASEs. More importantly, this user is '''not permitted''' to create users and set privileges.<br />
<br />
You could further reduce a user's privileges by removing other items from the '''grant''' statement. Users should only be given permission to access the functions that are necessary to perform their tasks and not to compromise your server.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== Refresh the MySQL grant tables ==<br />
Information you have changed or created when executing the above statements is stored in a database called mysql. this database was automatically created during MySQL installation. It contains several tables that hold all of the information pertaining to each user, the databases they have access to, the hosts they can connect from, and the privileges allowed for each.<br />
<br />
The only time MySQL reads data in these tables is when it first boots (runs). It does not read those tables again unless it is told to do so. Without this step, none of your newly created users or changes to existing users will take effect.<br />
<br />
There are several ways to reload the privilege tables, you can stop and re-start the MySQL server or issue the following command from MySQL console:<br />
'''flush privileges;'''<br />
<br />
This instructs the MySQL server to take another look at the user tables and hence puts all of your new users and privileges into operation.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== That extra database ==<br />
Have you discovered an extra database you cannot remove! This page explains why [[MySQL That Extra Database | information_schema]].<br />
<br />
Back to MySQL User Accounts [[MySQL separate user accounts | MySQL user accounts]] <br />
<br />
I am not one for typing my preference is to use [[MySQL phpMyAdmin | phpMyAdmin]].<br />

There are times when the power of MySQL console comes into it's own [[MySQL Lost Password | Lost Password]]<br />

'''Quick PHP (cgi) 3.5-Apollo'''<br />
|}<br />
So you have installed UniServer, performed all tests and it’s working. Where is the on off switch for PHP? The answer is straightforward, it’s '''already running''', any page with a “'''.php'''” extension is scanned for PHP code and executed. I have written this page purely for orientation with reference to Uniform Server, it is not intended in any way to teach you PHP you can find better material on the Internet. Its sole purpose is to get you up and running with PHP on Uniform Server it is a very basic introduction to PHP.<br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
PHP 5.2.3 (as used on 3.5-Apollo) is the latest release, and few issues have been found with it. Indeed, PHP 5 has proved to be a much more stable release than PHP 4.<br />
<br />
This section provides a few examples that you can run on Uniform Server. It is not intended to teach you PHP you can find better material on the net.<br />
<br />
'''''Note:''''' There are two variants of PHP that can be run on Apache, CGI and CLI. Uniform Server uses the CLI module for processing and serving PHP web pages, think of this as CGI mode. On the next page I cover CLI, it is this dual role that can be confusion basically don’t worry about it, you get the best of both worlds from one module.<br />
<br />
=== PHP Syntax ===<br />
The following very basic HTML page shows how to insert '''PHP''', save this page as '''test1.php''' and place it in folder '''*\Uniform Server\udrive\www'''<br />
<pre><br />
<html><br />
<title>Test 1</title><br />
<body><br />
<P>Welcome, <?php print "Hello World"; ?></P><br />
</body><br />
</html><br />
</pre><br />
Display the page by typing '''<nowiki>http://localhost/test1.php</nowiki>''' into your browser address bar.<br />
<br />
It displays a paragraph; "Welcome, Hello World", note 'Hello World' is the result produced by the PHP code.<br />
There are two things of importance:<br />
<br />
* The file extention must be '''.php'''<br />
* Your PHP code must be enclosed between '''<?php''' and '''?>''' open and close tags respectively.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''''Note 1:''''' PHP on Uniform Server has been set for '''short_open_tag on''' hence you can use '''<? ?>''' instead of '''<?php ?>'''<br><br />
'''''Note 2:''''' You can set Apache to use other file extension other than php see [[New Users: Quick PHP Info#PHP file extensions| PHP file extensions]] for details.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== PHP information function ==<br />
PHP information function, well I have included this just to show a little of PHP's power. True you can use '''apanel''' to obtain this information but how complex is the code that produces it.<br />
Create a new page named '''test2.php''' and copy the following code:<br />
<pre><br />
<html><br />
<title>Test 2</title><br />
<body><br />
<? phpinfo(); ?><br />
</body><br />
</html><br />
</pre><br />
Display the page by typing '''<nowiki>http://localhost/test2.php</nowiki>''' into your browser address bar.<br />
<br />
The complete script uses a single function '''phpinfo()''' this is built into PHP.<br />
<br />
'''''Note:''''' The above is refereed to as '''embedding code''' into your HTML document.<br><br />
The next example shows you are not restricted to placing code just inside the body tags.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== Embedded Code ==<br />
You can embed PHP code anywhere in an HTML page and do just about anything you like. The following page demonstrates this<br />
Create a new page and name it '''test3.php''' copy the following code into it:<br />
<pre><br />
<html><br />
<? print "<title>PHP Info page test 3</title>\n"; ?><br />
<body><br />
<?php<br />
phpinfo();<br />
?><br />
</body><br />
<? print "</html>" ?><br />
</pre><br />
Display the page by typing '''<nowiki>http://localhost/test3.php</nowiki>''' into your browser address bar.<br />
<br />
The code adds a title for the page it even adds the closing HTML tag. OK not practical but servers to demonstrate my point.<br />
One last example along these lines PHP pure code.<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== Pure Code ==<br />
You normally embed PHP code in HTML pages however you are not restricted to this. The following code creates an entire page using just the '''print command''':<br />
Again create a new page and name it test4.php copy the following code into it:<br />
<pre><br />
<?php<br />
print "<html>\n";<br />
print "<title>Test 4</title>\n";<br />
print "<body>\n";<br />
print "<p>Welcome to a complete HTML page</p>\n";<br />
print "</body>\n";<br />
print "</html>\n";<br />
?><br />
</pre><br />
Display the page by typing '''<nowiki>http://localhost/test4.php</nowiki>''' into your browser address bar.<br />
<br />
It works however look at all those print statements.<br><br />
If you like typing fine! However take a look at the next section PHP Heredoc to save you some work.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
== PHP Heredoc ==<br />
This example is a little more advanced however I introduce it here because it will save you a lot of effort in the future.<br />
The previous example '''PHP pure''' uses a number of print commands with additional formating markup.<br />
<br />
The need for all that typing really is painful however ther is a better way to implement it, to the rescue '''Heredoc'''.<br><br />
Create a new page and name it '''test5.php''' copy the following code into it:<br />
{| cellpadding="8" cellspacing="1" style="background:#000000;"<br />
|style="background:#f5f5f5;"|<br />
<?php<br><br />
<nowiki>print <<<</nowiki>'''eot'''<br><br />
<nowiki><html></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><title>Test 5</title></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><body></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><p>This just reduces the effort</p></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><p>Welcome to a complete HTML page</p></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki></body></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki></html></nowiki><br><br />
'''eot;'''<br><br />
?><br />
|}<br />
Display the page by typing '''<nowiki>http://localhost/test5.php</nowiki>''' into your browser address bar.<br />
<br />
Heredoc allows you to define your own string limiter. In this example I am using '''eot''' instead of quotes. I like to think of the three chevrons as piping the string into the print function. You can replace print with a variable this would then hold the string as a value.<br />
<br />
* Note: '''eot''' you can use name you like<br />
* In reality the three chevrons '''<<<''' tell PHP you want to '''enter heredoc mode'''.<br />
* The delimiter (eot;)at the end of the string must have '''no spaces''' around it and must be followed by a semi-colon.<br />
* You need to escape dollar symbols if you want them printed, otherwise what follows the $ symbol will be treated as a variable and replaced accordingly. Use a backslash like this \$<br />
<br />
I am only scratching the surface but the next concept is important; including external files.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== Include External Files ==<br />
An important concept in PHP is that of '''including files''', this allows sharing of functionality. Including a file is extremely easy use the '''include keyword''', and specify the filename you want to include. Most web sites you see have a common banner and footer this example uses only one page but gives the general idea it requires the following three files:<br />
<br />
Create a new page and name it '''test6.php''' copy the following code into it:<br />
<br />
{| cellpadding="8" cellspacing="1" style="background:#000000;"<br />
|style="background:#f5f5f5;"|<br />
<nowiki><html></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><title>Test 6</title></nowiki><br><br />
<body><br><br />
'''<nowiki><? include 'banner.php'; ?></nowiki>'''<br><br />
<nowiki><p>This is my main page content</p></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki></body></nowiki><br><br />
'''<nowiki><? include 'footer.php'; ?></nowiki>'''<br><br />
<nowiki></html></nowiki><br><br />
|}<br />
<br />
Create a new page and name it '''banner.php''' copy the following code into it:<br />
<br />
{| cellpadding="8" cellspacing="1" style="background:#000000;"<br />
|style="background:#f5f5f5;"|<br />
<nowiki><div style="border:3px solid #ff0000;background:#ffff00; padding:10px;text-align:center;"></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><h1>Uniform Server</h1></nowiki><br><br />
</div><br />
|}<br />
<br />
Create a new page and name it '''footer.php''' copy the following code into it:<br />
<br />
{| cellpadding="8" cellspacing="1" style="background:#000000;"<br />
|style="background:#f5f5f5;"|<br />
<nowiki><div style="background:#000000; color:#ffffff;padding:3px;text-align:center;fint-size:10px;"></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki>My footer Uniform Server</nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki></div></nowiki><br />
|}<br />
<br />
Save all three files to folder '''www'''<br><br />
Display the page by typing '''<nowiki>http://localhost/test6.php</nowiki>''' into your browser address bar.<br />
<br />
Looking at the code for '''test6.php''', the include command inserts a banner from the '''banner.php''' file. This is followed by your main page content. Finally a footer is inserted from the file '''footer.php''' Use this format for every page on your site and you see how easy it would be to change all page banners just by changing one file.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''''Note 1:''''' Include files can be nested (for example the included file may itself include another file and so on)<br><br />
'''''Note 2:''''' All include files must have the file extension .php they get processed preventing their content being directely viewable over the Internet.<br />
<br />
Unlocking the real power of PHP requires the use of Superglobals these are pre-defined for you.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== Superglobals ==<br />
Superglobals can be considered a big bucket of data that is destined for PHP. '''Data from the internet''' is poured into this bucket along with your '''current system environment''' and a mix of other things. Inside the bucket you will find data is neatly packed into a set of nine arrays. These '''arrays''' are accessible from''' anywhere''' within your scripts hence the name superglobals. You can ignore the last two.<br />
<br />
* '''$_GET''' Contains all variables sent using HTTP GET request. The one attached to the URL.<br />
* '''$_POST''' Contains all variables sent using HTTP POST request.<br />
* '''$_FILES''' Contains all variables sent using HTTP POST file upload.<br />
* '''$_COOKIE''' Contains all variables sent using HTTP cookies.<br />
* '''$_SESSION''' Contains all variables stored in a user's session.<br />
* '''$_SERVER''' Contains all variables set by Apache server.<br />
* '''$_ENV''' Contains all environment variables set by your system.<br />
* $GLOBALS<br />
* $_REQUEST<br />
<br />
OK thats all fine but how do you use them. The first example HTTP_REFERER I have had my little rant about in the [[New Users: Problems Section#HTTP_REFERER | quick install guide problems]] hence could not resist showing you this.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== HTTP_REFERER ==<br />
HTTP_REFERER is one of PHP's pre-set variables that get set before your script runs. As seen by the server it contains the current URL of a users page if a link was clicked on that page, or it will be empty if the user entered the URL directly into their browser. To see this in action run these two files:<br />
<br />
Create a new page and name it '''test8.php''' copy the following code into it:<br />
{| cellpadding="8" cellspacing="1" style="background:#000000;"<br />
|style="background:#f5f5f5;"|<br />
<nowiki><html></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><title>Test 8</title></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><body></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><a href="test8a.php">Click link to demostrate HTTP_REFERER</a></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki></body></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki></html></nowiki><br><br />
|}<br />
Create a new page and name it '''test8a.php''' copy the following code into it:<br />
{| cellpadding="8" cellspacing="1" style="background:#000000;"<br />
|style="background:#f5f5f5;"|<br />
<nowiki><html></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><title>Test 8a</title></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><body></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><?php</nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki> if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'])) {</nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki> print "You came from page {$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']}<br />";</nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki>} else {</nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki> print "You type the page in a new browser window<br />";</nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki>}</nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki>?></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki></body></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki></html></nowiki><br />
|}<br />
Save the two files to folder '''www'''<br />
<br />
Display the first page by typing '''<nowiki>http://localhost/test8.php</nowiki>''' into your browser address bar.<br />
Click the link on this page read the message.<br />
<br />
Now open a '''new''' browser window (or tab) and type '''<nowiki>http://localhost/test8a.php</nowiki>''' into your browser address bar.<br><br />
Note the message displayed.<br />
<br />
'''''Results'''''<br />
<br />
When a page is loaded HTTP_REFERER is set; clicking a link requests a new page, HTTP_REFERER is sent with the request. Hence the message "You came from page.."<br />
<br />
However when you type the page into a new browser window HTTP_REFERER is not set hence it will not be sent with the page request.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />

'''Quick Perl (CGI) 3.5-Apollo'''<br />
|}<br />
So you have installed Uniform Server, performed all tests and it’s working. Where is the on off switch for PERL? The answer is straightforward, it’s already running, any page with a '''.pl''' extension placed in folder '''*\Uniform Server\udrive\cgi-bin''' is routed to the Perl compiler and executed. I have written this page purely for orientation with reference to Uniform Server, it is not intended in any way to teach you Perl you can find better material on the Internet. Its sole purpose to get you up and running with Perl on Uniform Server 3.5-Apollo.<br />
<br />
There are two faces of Perl, CGI for dynamic web pages and CLI for batch programming. This page covers CGI, if you are interested in CLI check out the link.<br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
The Perl engine installed on Uniform Server is version v5.8.8 provided by [http://www.ActiveState.com ActiveState] it is not only very powerful but extremely compact. If you have read [[New Users: Quick PHP CGI | Quick PHP CGI]] I have tried to make quick Perl's content similar.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
== Perl Syntax ==<br />
The following are very basic HTML pages producing identical output. They show how to use Perl, save the pages as '''test1.pl''' and '''test2.pl''' place both in folder '''*\Uniform Server\udrive\cgi-bin'''. All your Perl pages are placed in this (cgi-bin) folder.<br />
<br />
Type the following into your browser address bar:<br />
<br />
*'''<nowiki>http://localhost/cgi-bin/test1.pl</nowiki>''' -- Displays test1.pl<br><br />
*'''<nowiki>http://localhost/cgi-bin/test2.pl</nowiki>''' -- Displays test2.pl<br />

<br />
== Page building ==<br />
With Perl's print command you are building a page from scratch the resulting page is passed onto the server. Looking at the above script in more detail:<br />
<br />
{| cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" style="background:#000000;"<br />
|-style="background:#e8e8e8;"<br />
! Line<br />
! Comments<br />
|-style="background:#f5f5f5;"<br />
| <nowiki>#!/usr/bin/perl</nowiki><br />
| '''shebang''' First line of every Perl script. Make sure there are no spaces before #<br />
|-style="background:#f5f5f5;"<br />
| print "Content-type: text/html\r\n\r\n";<br />
| Every HTML document requires a mime type Content- type: text/html<CRLF><CRLF><br><br />
This tells the client's browser (and web server) how to interpret the information that follows it.<br><br />
In Perl the <CRLF> code is described by the escape sequence '''\r\n\r\n''', hence the line:<br><br />
'''Content-type: text/html\r\n\r\n''' (Windows use \n\n)<br />
|-style="background:#f5f5f5;"<br />
|<nowiki>print "<HTML>\n";</nowiki><br />
|<nowiki><HTML> Start tag for an html page</nowiki><br />
|-style="background:#f5f5f5;"<br />
|<nowiki>print&nbsp;"<HEAD><TITLE>Hello World!</TITLE></HEAD>\n";</nowiki><br />
|Header and page title tags<br />
|-style="background:#f5f5f5;"<br />
|<nowiki>print "<BODY>\n";</nowiki><br />
|Page body tag start of page content<br />
|-style="background:#f5f5f5;"<br />
|<nowiki>print "<H2>Hello World!</H2>\n";</nowiki><br />
|Page content in this case an h2 header displaying Hello World<br />
|-style="background:#f5f5f5;"<br />
|<nowiki>print "</BODY>\n";</nowiki><br />
|Closing body tag<br />
|-style="background:#f5f5f5;"<br />
|<nowiki>print "</HTML>\n";</nowiki><br />
|Closing html page tag<br />
|-style="background:#f5f5f5;"<br />
|<nowiki>exit (0);</nowiki><br />
|After the Perl script ends, Apache collects the "return value" of the program it then knows if there was an error or not. If the return value is zero, everything is okay. If the return value is not zero, Apache will display an error and log the error to the log files.<br><br />
In Perl, you can specify what the return value of a CGI program with the exit keyword:<br />
<br />
exit (0); - normal exit code<br><br />
exit (1): - something serious happened<br />

== Include external files -1 ==<br />
Perl has so many ways of doing this as to what method you choose depends on your application. Coming from PHP you most likely to want to include headers, footers, functions and configuration data. My preferred method is to use '''require "some_path/file_name.pl"''' each of these files set functions and or variables, nothing cleaver just means I have one file structure. To give you an idea what I am talking about lets look at an example.<br />
<br />
Suppose I want to use this master page as a template with header, content and footer. The first thing to do is chop it up into the appropriate parts:<br />
<br />
{| cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" style="background:#000000;"<br />
|-<br />
|style="background:#e8e8e8;"|<nowiki><html></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><head></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><title>Test 1</title></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki></head></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><body></nowiki><br />
|style="background:#f0f0f0;"|Main Page<br />
|-<br />
|style="background:#f5f5f5;"|<nowiki><table width="100%" border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><tr><td bgcolor="#000000">&nbsp;</td></tr></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><tr><td align="center" bgcolor="#CCCCCC"><h2>HEADER</h2></td></tr></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><tr><td bgcolor="#000000">&nbsp;</td></tr></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki></table></nowiki><br />
|style="background:#f0f0f0;"|Header <br />
|-<br />
|style="background:#e8e8e8;"|<nowiki><table width="100%" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><tr><td bgcolor="#96FE9D"><p><strong>Some content</strong></p></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><p><strong>More Content</strong></p></td></tr></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki></table></nowiki> <br />
|style="background:#f0f0f0;"|Content <br />
|-<br />
|style="background:#f5f5f5;"|<nowiki><table width="100%" border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><tr><td bgcolor="#000000">&nbsp;</td></tr></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><tr><td align="center" bgcolor="#CCCCCC"><h3><font color="#FF0000">Footer</font></h3></td></tr></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki><tr><td bgcolor="#000000">&nbsp;</td></tr></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki></table></nowiki> <br />
|style="background:#f0f0f0;"|Footer<br />
|-<br />
|style="background:#e8e8e8;"|<nowiki></body></nowiki><br><br />
<nowiki></html></nowiki> <br />
|style="background:#f0f0f0;"|Main Page<br />
|}<br />
<br />
Convert the above into four files as follows: (Save the pages as as '''test3.pl''' , '''inc_header.pl''' , '''inc_content.pl''' and '''inc_footer.pl'''<br />
<br />
I have highlighted the additional content required to create each file. The main page uses '''require''' to load each file these statements are place just below the shebang. The advantage of this method, I can use a file names that are different to the functions they contain. Once all three files are loaded I have three functions that can be used any where in my script.<br />
<br />
I call each function in turn using its name and a pair of brackets, for example header() will print the header content.<br />
<br />

<br />
Each of the included files can be named anything you like so long as they have the .pl extension. Contents of each file in this example is one function. Each function (sub) has a unique name, and use the short-cut print command to print the HTML we require. At the end of each file you must include '''1'''; this keeps Perl happy, it indicates the content is valid.<br />
<br />
Type the following into your browser address bar:<br />
<br />
'''<nowiki>http://localhost/cgi-bin/test3.pl</nowiki>''' -- Displays test3.pl<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== Include external files -2 ==<br />
Looking at the above you can see our template page is modular, uses three files, each containing a small package of information to create the final page. Perl modules and packages allow you to directly use a file name without the extension in a require statement. What is really neat you can then use that require name in any location and the code is inserted, similar to PHP's include. The above example requires minor modifications, each include file has an extension of .pm indicating a Perl module its content are defined as a module.<br />
<br />
The following shows how to convert the above into module files: Save the pages as as '''test4.pl''' , '''header.pm''' , '''content.pm''' and '''footer.pm''' <br />

== Perl Modules ==<br />
Where are Modules Installed? On Uniform Server Perl looks in the folder '''*\Uniform Server\udrive\usr\lib''' in this folder you will find common pms such as '''warnings.pm''', '''strict.pm''' more importantly '''lib.pm'''<br />
<br />
'''lib.pm''' Allows you to define a location for your own Perl modules. For example create a folder '''my_pms''' in the library folder '''*\Uniform Server\udrive\usr\lib''' and copy the above three pms (''header.pm'', ''content.pm'' and ''footer.pm'') into it. Make the following changes to test.4.pl and save as test5.pl<br />
<br />
'''''Note:''''' Delete the three pm's in cgi-bin to make sure they are picked up from only your '''my_pms''' folder.<br />
<br />
{| cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" style="background:#000000;"<br />

There should be no differences in the displayed result between test 4.pl and test 5.pl all that has changed is the location of the three pms. Note: Test.4.pl will fail because of the deleted pms.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
== Problems ==<br />
The chances are the above test will fail, I am no expert with Perl but I do know if a module does not match the executable things fail. There are such a vast number of Perl modules on the Internet keeping these up to date is a nightmare. To show you what I mean run Perl from a command prompt using '''perl -V''' this is what you may see displayed:<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
G:\B1_server\Uniform Server\udrive\usr\bin>perl -V<br />
Perl lib version (v5.8.7) doesn't match executable version (v5.8.8) at G:/B1_server/Uniform Server/udrive/usr/lib/Config.pm line 46.<br />
Compilation failed in require.<br />
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.<br />
G:\B1_server\Uniform Server\udrive\usr\bin><br />
</pre><br />
<br />
My solution to this download AS package from [http://www.activestate.com/store/download.aspx?prdGUID=81fbce82-6bd5-49bc-a915-08d58c2648ca Activate State] look for Column '''ActivePerl 5.8.8.820''' Section '''Windows (x86)''' file AS Package it is big zip file 15.7M once unzipped you can then manually install Perl. Not recommended so do not do it. Locate the folder perl/lib and copy every file that matches ones in Uniserver's '''usr/lib''' about nine files are updated.<br />
<br />
Run '''perl -V''' again you will receive a message similar to this:<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
G:\B1_server\Uniform Server\udrive\usr\bin>perl -V<br />
Can't locate Config_heavy.pl in @INC (@INC contains: G:/B1_server/Uniform Server/udrive/usr/lib .) at G:/B1_server/Uniform Server/udrive/usr/lib/Config.pm line 70.<br />
G:\B1_server\Uniform Server\udrive\usr\bin><br />
</pre><br />
<br />
It cannot find the file '''Config_heavy.pl''' hence copy that across as well.<br />
<br />
OK point taken why not copy all the files across! Well you could but size 2M as opposed to 0.5M keep it small.<br />
<br />
Run '''perl -V''' again this time the script will run, a vast amount of information is displayed you can ignore all the lines '''''please-run...''''' of real importance is this line:<br />
<br />
'''@INC: G:/B1_server/Uniform Server/udrive/usr/lib'''<br />
<br />
It shows all the default paths to the pms, note the ones you add are dynamically created and removed hence will not show up here.<br />
<br />
I very rarely use pms because I am more than happy with the core Perl module, however if you do need a specific pm just install that one, this method will save you a lot of space.<br />
<br />
'''''[[#top | Top]]'''''<br />
<br />
=== Download ===<br />
If all you use are the core pms in /usr/lib no need to go to the trouble of the above give this a try first unicenter_usr_lib.zip. I have not checked for any dependences hence use at your own risk. If you are using any other pm's you now know where to find updated versions always check for correct matching versions.<br />
<br />
'''''Note:''''' The following page may be of interest, its part of a mini server series dedicated to running a single aspect of a server. This mini server runs Perl 5.10 again a very limited number of modules, download size 1MB, extracted size 3M well I did say mini server, however it is running the Apache 2.2.8 core.<br />
<br />
=== What next ===<br />
I mentioned the two faces of Perl, lets press on to the second, CLI or batch file replacement.<br />
<br />
This for me! Is the real power of Perl, I hope you find it of some use.<br />

<br />
Welcome, Ric, hope to be able to have a nice chat with you sometime :)<br />
<br />
MrX, how about you put a signature so he knows??? lol. am umm Ric, do you think we should use the version number in the title? I think its better if we dont because if anything changes, it will most likely be updated on the wiki so i dont think we need to use the version numbers. Oh yeah.. categories! lol. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 08:48, 20 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Hi Olajide, well I have made a start with transferring pages as you can see from the number of edits have not mastered it yet. Anyway I have popped a new battery in the sat-nav and slowing finding my way around.<br />
<br />
Regarding the version number before the release of 4 if you upgrade 3.5 just up the number to 3.6 will avoid any confusion. There’s a question will there be a 3.6?<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 20:32, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Maybe someday I'll regret answering this on behalf of Olajide, but from what I've heard, I don't think there'll be a 3.6 :) <br /><br />
By the way, hi Ric :) <br /><br />
I '''guess''' one of the reasons why Olajide decided on such a big version jump was that 4.0 will come with Apache 2.2 and maybe because he also has some big plans for the Admin Panel :D<br />
<br />
Thanks for that bit of info. In all honesty I have hacked 3.5 to death on more than one occasion (ok out of its design spec) but straight out of the box it works fine so probably no need for 3.6.<br />
<br />
I think 4 needs to have a little more headroom, by this I mean increase in size with more functionality but not bloat ware. An interesting balancing act! When’s Olajide going to join the circus or his he already a member?<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 21:22, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />

<br />
Hey Ric, as MrX said, there will be no 3.6. We are maing a big jump to 4.0 from 3.5, due to most of the reason MrX also mentions ;-) lol. And umm, i am already a member of the circus. lol. Uniform Circus.. :) and yeah, everything takes time, and nothing is ever perfect, so everything is good Ric. I like what you've done so far and welcome to the Wiki. :) --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 22:58, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
I guess 4.0 will get a size increase, due to the fact that the Apache 2.2 binaries Olajide will be using is compiled with VC 2008 (aka VC9, released in November last year) and has OpenSSL enabled. So, we'll probably need to add the VC9 runtime(s) (unless their improvement in performance doesn't involve these) and OpenSSL DLLs to avoid some crazy DLL Hell ;)<br />
<br />
MrX, Ric is the one who compiled the Apache 2.2 Migrate. He is the developer in charge of that section of 4.0. I really havent asked him which one he used... --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 03:40, 23 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Ok, Olajide, maybe Ric should get a custom build of Apache with the version reply edited out :D <br /><br />
Anyway, Ric, have you tested your UniCenter Python plugin to see if it would run Python programs like [[wikipedia:MoinMoin|MoinMoin]]? Olajide: How about a [[wikipedia:FastCGI|mod_fcgid]] plugin for running Perl and Python?<br /><br />
<RMS>Ric: I also noticed that on your New Users Python Intro page you mentioned that you like the GNU Free Document<u>ation</u> License, you do know that that's what this wiki uses, right?</RMS> <br /><br />
Wow, this talk page has really grown in the past 24 hours :D<br />

Security: Being new to the Wiki I am looking at security and how to protect pages. I have never knowingly published any files containing a virus or malicious content. Hence on the Wiki I will lock down two types of pages any containing an MD5 check sum along with the associated downloadable and any text file pertaining to a batch file.<br />
My tests confirm this is possible OK nothing is 100% secure that’s the real world. It’s all down to a reasonable degree of confidence.<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 22:51, 23 May 2008 (UTC)<br />

----<br />
Security: Hi Olajide thanks for the PM. What you propose is ideal from my point of view. I can lock down pages containing MD5 check sums more importantly the exe files (I like 7Z) cannot be tampered with. It’s not just about security but also user confidence when using the Wiki. Hey one added bonus no changes to the Wiki configs.<br />
<br />
When you have it in place I will upload the pages that require exe files.<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 22:21, 25 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi, Ric. May I know where you're getting the Apache 2.2 binaries (for 4.0) from?<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi I am not sure what Olajide has planed to use on 4 however the binaries I hacked around were:<br />
<br />
Apache 2.2.8<br />
Downloaded from: http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi<br />
Version: apache_2.2.8-win32-x86-openssl-0.9.8g.msi<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 15:52, 26 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
----<br />
I'm guessing that those were the ones you used for your mini servers, right? <br /><br />
Well, this is a little strange, just read Olajide's message posted on 03:40, 23 May 2008 a few lines above. When I talked about the Apache 2.2 binaries, Olajide said that you were in charged of that, so I guess it is up to you to decide :) <br /><br />
Well, the binaries I mentioned above, while talking to Olajide are from http://www.apachelounge.com/download/, there are some module binaries there as well. <br /><br />
Since Olajide has put you in charged of this, I'm wondering if you have any comments on those binaries. I am also interested to know if you plan to include mod_ssl together with 4.0, or whether you would prefer to distribute that as a separate plugin.<br />
<br />
MrX, stop harassing Ric. Let him do what he has to do.. lol. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 08:08, 27 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
I was just trying to have a meaningful conversation :(<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi Mr X<br />
I apologise for not getting back. To be honest I am not sure where the mini-server binaries came from, most probably from Hunter that source was my favourite it really is a shame the site has closed. I say not sure because after my disk crash I lost some data. The mini-server info was on a sector or two I could not recover. Always meant to do a full back up but never got around to it.<br />
<br />
I really think now you can’t go wrong if you use binaries from http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi Apace Org. These will work fine on the mini-servers with no change. I am currently looking at a new write-up and now Apache Org is my first port of call.<br />
<br />
By the way I certainly respect your technical competence and views, after a clean OS install on my new hard drive I had problems with slimFTPd! I remembered you’re post on the forum, what can I say! Spot on, certainly resolved my problem.<br />
<br />
I very rarely can catch you or Olajide in real time on the forum due to the six-hour difference between USA and UK time. <br />
<br />
If I remember correctly you are now a Linux person only interested because I have tried several distributions and never been able to get a connection to my wireless router.<br />
<br />
All the best<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 21:34, 30 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
----<br />
Thank you so much for replying, Ric :) <br /><br />
Could I know more about the now closed "Hunter" site you were talking about? (A URL would be nice) <br /><br />
About the time difference, I'm 12 hours ahead of Olajide and 7 hours ahead of you. I'm sure we'll be able to find a suitable time to meet up.<br />
<br />
I mentioned the ApacheLounge binaries as on that site, they claim that their binaries are compiled with VC9 and the ones from Apache.org are compiled with VC6. I have no way of testing this without Windows, but I guess that means the binaries are also linked to the latest VC runtime library, which is probably why it has improved performance. Well, I guess that's all I have to say about the binaries. I just wanted to find out what you thought about the improved performance claim, if you don't think that's necessary, I'll respect your decision.<br />
<br />
Finally, Linux. Which distributions did you try? Did you install the distributions on your hard disk or did you use a LiveCD/DVD/USB? I don't have any experience with wireless routers, however, as far as I know, when that's not working, [[wikipedia:NdisWrapper|NDISwrapper]], a driver wrapper, is usually mentioned. There is a [http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/index.php?/component/option,com_openwiki/Itemid,33/id,list/ list of supported cards] on their site. I'm not sure if that's a suitable solution to your problem as I don't know why your network card was not detected by the distributions you tried -- because the proper drivers were not compiled into the kernel and then loaded or because your card is incompatible with Linux (not natively supported).<br />
<br />
Another thing, Ric, do you think it'll be better to put your article navigation bar (sorry, I couldn't find a better name for that) in a Template like what Olajide has done for the Development Status, Wiki News, and Did You Know sections in the [[Main Page]]?</div>MrXhttps://wiki.uniformserver.com/index.php?title=User_talk:Ric&diff=2975User talk:Ric2008-05-31T04:42:15Z<p>MrX: </p>

Ok, Olajide, maybe Ric should get a custom build of Apache with the version reply edited out :D <br /><br />
Anyway, Ric, have you tested your UniCenter Python plugin to see if it would run Python programs like [[wikipedia:MoinMoin|MoinMoin]]? Olajide: How about a [[wikipedia:FastCGI|mod_fcgid]] plugin for running Perl and Python?<br /><br />
<RMS>Ric: I also noticed that on your New Users Python Intro page you mentioned that you like the GNU Free Document<u>ation</u> License, you do know that that's what this wiki uses, right?</RMS> <br /><br />
Wow, this talk page has really grown in the past 24 hours :D<br />

Security: Being new to the Wiki I am looking at security and how to protect pages. I have never knowingly published any files containing a virus or malicious content. Hence on the Wiki I will lock down two types of pages any containing an MD5 check sum along with the associated downloadable and any text file pertaining to a batch file.<br />
My tests confirm this is possible OK nothing is 100% secure that’s the real world. It’s all down to a reasonable degree of confidence.<br />

Security: Hi Olajide thanks for the PM. What you propose is ideal from my point of view. I can lock down pages containing MD5 check sums more importantly the exe files (I like 7Z) cannot be tampered with. It’s not just about security but also user confidence when using the Wiki.

Hi, Ric. May I know where you're getting the Apache 2.2 binaries (for 4.0) from?<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi I am not sure what Olajide has planed to use on 4 however the binaries I hacked around were:<br />
<br />
Apache 2.2.8<br />
Downloaded from: http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi<br />
Version: apache_2.2.8-win32-x86-openssl-0.9.8g.msi<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 15:52, 26 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
----<br />
I'm guessing that those were the ones you used for your mini servers, right? <br /><br />
Well, this is a little strange, just read Olajide's message posted on 03:40, 23 May 2008 a few lines above. When I talked about the Apache 2.2 binaries, Olajide said that you were in charged of that, so I guess it is up to you to decide :) <br /><br />
Well, the binaries I mentioned above, while talking to Olajide are from http://www.apachelounge.com/download/, there are some module binaries there as well. <br /><br />
Since Olajide has put you in charged of this, I'm wondering if you have any comments on those binaries. I am also interested to know if you plan to include mod_ssl together with 4.0, or whether you would prefer to distribute that as a separate plugin.<br />
<br />
MrX, stop harassing Ric. Let him do what he has to do.. lol. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 08:08, 27 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
I was just trying to have a meaningful conversation :(<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi Mr X<br />
I apologise for not getting back. To be honest I am not sure where the mini-server binaries came from, most probably from Hunter that source was my favourite it really is a shame the site has closed. I say not sure because after my disk crash I lost some data. The mini-server info was on a sector or two I could not recover. Always meant to do a full back up but never got around to it.<br />
<br />
I really think now you can’t go wrong if you use binaries from http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi Apace Org. These will work fine on the mini-servers with no change. I am currently looking at a new write-up and now Apache Org is my first port of call.<br />
<br />
By the way I certainly respect your technical competence and views, after a clean OS install on my new hard drive I had problems with slimFTPd! I remembered you’re post on the forum, what can I say! Spot on, certainly resolved my problem.<br />
<br />
I very rarely can catch you or Olajide in real time on the forum due to the six-hour difference between USA and UK time. <br />
<br />
If I remember correctly you are now a Linux person only interested because I have tried several distributions and never been able to get a connection to my wireless router.<br />
<br />
All the best<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 21:34, 30 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
----<br />
Thank you so much for replying, Ric :) <br /><br />
Could I know more about the now closed "Hunter" site you were talking about? (A URL would be nice) <br /><br />
About the time difference, I'm 12 hours ahead of Olajide and 7 hours ahead of you. I'm sure we'll be able to find a suitable time to meet up.<br />
<br />
I mentioned the ApacheLounge binaries as on that site, they claim that their binaries are compiled with VC9 and the ones from Apache.org are compiled with VC6. I have no way of testing this without Windows, but I guess that means the binaries are also linked to the latest VC runtime library, which is probably why it has improved performance. Well, I guess that's all I have to say about the binaries. I just wanted to find out what you thought about the improved performance claim, if you don't think that's necessary, I'll respect your decision.<br />
<br />
Finally, Linux. Which distributions did you try? Did you install the distributions on your hard disk or did you use a LiveCD? I don't have any experience with wireless routers, however, as far as I know, when that's not working, [[wikipedia:NdisWrapper|NDISwrapper]], a driver wrapper, is usually mentioned. There is a [http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/index.php?/component/option,com_openwiki/Itemid,33/id,list/ list of supported cards] on their site. I'm not sure if that's a suitable solution to your problem as I don't know why your network card was not detected by the distributions you tried -- because the proper drivers were not compiled into the kernel and then loaded or because your card is incompatible with Linux (not natively supported).<br />
<br />
Another thing, Ric, do you think it'll be better to put your article navigation bar (sorry, I couldn't find a better phrase for that) in a Template like what Olajide has done for the Development Status, Wiki News, and Did You Know sections in the [[Main Page]]?</div>MrXhttps://wiki.uniformserver.com/index.php?title=User_talk:Ric&diff=2973User talk:Ric2008-05-31T04:29:27Z<p>MrX: </p>

MrX, how about you put a signature so he knows??? lol. am umm Ric, do you think we should use the version number in the title? I think its better if we dont because if anything changes, it will most likely be updated on the wiki so i dont think we need to use the version numbers. Oh yeah.. categories! lol. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 08:48, 20 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Hi Olajide, well I have made a start with transferring pages as you can see from the number of edits have not mastered it yet. Anyway I have popped a new battery in the sat-nav and slowing finding my way around.<br />
<br />
Regarding the version number before the release of 4 if you upgrade 3.5 just up the number to 3.6 will avoid any confusion. There’s a question will there be a 3.6?<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 20:32, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Maybe someday I'll regret answering this on behalf of Olajide, but from what I've heard, I don't think there'll be a 3.6 :) <br /><br />
By the way, hi Ric :) <br /><br />
I '''guess''' one of the reasons why Olajide decided on such a big version jump was that 4.0 will come with Apache 2.2 and maybe because he also has some big plans for the Admin Panel :D<br />
<br />
Thanks for that bit of info. In all honesty I have hacked 3.5 to death on more than one occasion (ok out of its design spec) but straight out of the box it works fine so probably no need for 3.6.<br />
<br />
I think 4 needs to have a little more headroom, by this I mean increase in size with more functionality but not bloat ware. An interesting balancing act! When’s Olajide going to join the circus or his he already a member?<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 21:22, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />

<br />
Hey Ric, as MrX said, there will be no 3.6. We are maing a big jump to 4.0 from 3.5, due to most of the reason MrX also mentions ;-) lol. And umm, i am already a member of the circus. lol. Uniform Circus.. :) and yeah, everything takes time, and nothing is ever perfect, so everything is good Ric. I like what you've done so far and welcome to the Wiki. :) --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 22:58, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
I guess 4.0 will get a size increase, due to the fact that the Apache 2.2 binaries Olajide will be using is compiled with VC 2008 (aka VC9, released in November last year) and has OpenSSL enabled. So, we'll probably need to add the VC9 runtime(s) (unless their improvement in performance doesn't involve these) and OpenSSL DLLs to avoid some crazy DLL Hell ;)<br />

I '''guess''' one of the reasons why Olajide decided on such a big version jump was that 4.0 will come with Apache 2.2 and maybe because he also has some big plans for the Admin Panel :D<br />
<br />
Thanks for that bit of info. In all honesty I have hacked 3.5 to death on more than one occasion (ok out of its design spec) but straight out of the box it works fine so probably no need for 3.6.<br />
<br />
I think 4 needs to have a little more headroom, by this I mean increase in size with more functionality but not bloat ware. An interesting balancing act! When’s Olajide going to join the circus or his he already a member?<br />

Hey Ric, as MrX said, there will be no 3.6. We are maing a big jump to 4.0 from 3.5, due to most of the reason MrX also mentions ;-) lol. And umm, i am already a member of the circus. lol. Uniform Circus.. :) and yeah, everything takes time, and nothing is ever perfect, so everything is good Ric. I like what you've done so far and welcome to the Wiki. :) --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 22:58, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
I guess 4.0 will get a size increase, due to the fact that the Apache 2.2 binaries Olajide will be using is compiled with VC 2008 (aka VC9, released in November last year) and has OpenSSL enabled. So, we'll probably need to add the VC9 runtime(s) (unless their improvement in performance doesn't involve these) and OpenSSL DLLs to avoid some crazy DLL Hell ;)<br />
<br />
MrX, Ric is the one who compiled the Apache 2.2 Migrate. He is the developer in charge of that section of 4.0. I really havent asked him which one he used... --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 03:40, 23 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Ok, Olajide, maybe Ric should get a custom build of Apache with the version reply edited out :D <br /><br />
Anyway, Ric, have you tested your UniCenter Python plugin to see if it would run Python programs like [[wikipedia:MoinMoin|MoinMoin]]? Olajide: How about a [[wikipedia:FastCGI|mod_fcgid]] plugin for running Perl and Python?<br /><br />
<RMS>Ric: I also noticed that on your New Users Python Intro page you mentioned that you like the GNU Free Document<u>ation</u> License, you do know that that's what this wiki uses, right?</RMS> <br /><br />
Wow, this talk page has really grown in the past 24 hours :D<br />

Hence on the Wiki I will lock down two types of pages any containing an MD5 check sum along with the associated downloadable and any text file pertaining to a batch file.<br />
My tests confirm this is possible OK nothing is 100% secure that’s the real world. It’s all down to a reasonable degree of confidence.<br />

I can lock down pages containing MD5 check sums more importantly the exe files (I like 7Z) cannot be tampered with. It’s not just about security but also user confidence when using the Wiki.

Hi, Ric. May I know where you're getting the Apache 2.2 binaries (for 4.0) from?<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi I am not sure what Olajide has planed to use on 4 however the binaries I hacked around were:<br />
<br />
Apache 2.2.8<br />
Downloaded from: http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi<br />
Version: apache_2.2.8-win32-x86-openssl-0.9.8g.msi<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 15:52, 26 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
----<br />
I'm guessing that those were the ones you used for your mini servers, right? <br /><br />
Well, this is a little strange, just read Olajide's message posted on 03:40, 23 May 2008 a few lines above. When I talked about the Apache 2.2 binaries, Olajide said that you were in charged of that, so I guess it is up to you to decide :) <br /><br />
Well, the binaries I mentioned above, while talking to Olajide are from http://www.apachelounge.com/download/, there are some module binaries there as well. <br /><br />
Since Olajide has put you in charged of this, I'm wondering if you have any comments on those binaries. I am also interested to know if you plan to include mod_ssl together with 4.0, or whether you would prefer to distribute that as a separate plugin.<br />
<br />
MrX, stop harassing Ric. Let him do what he has to do.. lol. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 08:08, 27 May 2008 (UTC)<br />

I was just trying to have a meaningful conversation :(<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi Mr X<br />
I apologise for not getting back. To be honest I am not sure where the mini-server binaries came from, most probably from Hunter that source was my favourite it really is a shame the site has closed. I say not sure because after my disk crash I lost some data. The mini-server info was on a sector or two I could not recover. Always meant to do a full back up but never got around to it.<br />
<br />
I really think now you can’t go wrong if you use binaries from http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi Apace Org. These will work fine on the mini-servers with no change. I am currently looking at a new write-up and now Apache Org is my first port of call.<br />
<br />
By the way I certainly respect your technical competence and views, after a clean OS install on my new hard drive I had problems with slimFTPd! I remembered you’re post on the forum, what can I say! Spot on, certainly resolved my problem.<br />
<br />
I very rarely can catch you or Olajide in real time on the forum due to the six-hour difference between USA and UK time. <br />
<br />
If I remember correctly you are now a Linux person only interested because I have tried several distributions and never been able to get a connection to my wireless router.<br />
<br />
All the best<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 21:34, 30 May 2008 (UTC)<br />

Thank you so much for replying, Ric :) <br /><br />
Could I know more about the now closed "Hunter" site you were talking about? (A URL would be nice) <br /><br />
About the time difference, I'm 12 hours ahead of Olajide and 7 hours ahead of you. I'm sure we'll be able to find a suitable time to meet up.<br />
<br />
I mentioned the ApacheLounge binaries as on that site, they claim that their binaries are compiled with VC9 and the ones from Apache.org are compiled with VC6. I have no way to test this without Windows, but I guess that means the binaries are also linked to the latest VC runtime library, which is probably why it has improved performance. Well, I guess that's all I have to say about the binaries. I just wanted to find out what you thought about the improved performance claim, if you don't think that's necessary, I'll respect your decision.<br />
<br />
Finally, Linux. Which distributions did you try? Did you install the distributions on your hard disk or did you use a LiveCD? I don't have any experience with wireless routers, however, as far as I know, when that's not working, [[wikipedia:NdisWrapper|NDISwrapper]], a driver wrapper, is usually mentioned. There is a [http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/index.php?/component/option,com_openwiki/Itemid,33/id,list/ list of supported cards] on their site. I'm not sure if that's a suitable solution to your problem as I don't know why your network card was not detected by the distributions you tried -- because the proper drivers were not compiled into the kernel or because your card is incompatible with Linux (not natively supported).</div>MrXhttps://wiki.uniformserver.com/index.php?title=User_talk:Ric&diff=2970User talk:Ric2008-05-31T04:08:44Z<p>MrX: </p>

MrX, how about you put a signature so he knows??? lol. am umm Ric, do you think we should use the version number in the title? I think its better if we dont because if anything changes, it will most likely be updated on the wiki so i dont think we need to use the version numbers. Oh yeah.. categories! lol. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 08:48, 20 May 2008 (UTC)<br />

Hi Olajide, well I have made a start with transferring pages as you can see from the number of edits have not mastered it yet. Anyway I have popped a new battery in the sat-nav and slowing finding my way around.<br />
<br />
Regarding the version number before the release of 4 if you upgrade 3.5 just up the number to 3.6 will avoid any confusion. There’s a question will there be a 3.6?<br />

Welcome, Ric, hope to be able to have a nice chat with you sometime :)<br />
<br />
MrX, how about you put a signature so he knows??? lol. am umm Ric, do you think we should use the version number in the title? I think its better if we dont because if anything changes, it will most likely be updated on the wiki so i dont think we need to use the version numbers. Oh yeah.. categories! lol. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 08:48, 20 May 2008 (UTC)<br />

Hi Olajide, well I have made a start with transferring pages as you can see from the number of edits have not mastered it yet. Anyway I have popped a new battery in the sat-nav and slowing finding my way around.<br />
<br />
Regarding the version number before the release of 4 if you upgrade 3.5 just up the number to 3.6 will avoid any confusion. There’s a question will there be a 3.6?<br />
<br />
[[User:Ric|Ric]] 20:32, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Maybe someday I'll regret answering this on behalf of Olajide, but from what I've heard, I don't think there'll be a 3.6 :) <br /><br />
By the way, hi Ric :) <br /><br />
I '''guess''' one of the reasons why Olajide decided on such a big version jump was that 4.0 will come with Apache 2.2 and maybe because he also has some big plans for the Admin Panel :D<br />
<br />
Thanks for that bit of info. In all honesty I have hacked 3.5 to death on more than one occasion (ok out of its design spec) but straight out of the box it works fine so probably no need for 3.6.<br />
<br />
I think 4 needs to have a little more headroom, by this I mean increase in size with more functionality but not bloat ware. An interesting balancing act! When’s Olajide going to join the circus or his he already a member?<br />

Hey Ric, as MrX said, there will be no 3.6. We are maing a big jump to 4.0 from 3.5, due to most of the reason MrX also mentions ;-) lol. And umm, i am already a member of the circus. lol. Uniform Circus.. :) and yeah, everything takes time, and nothing is ever perfect, so everything is good Ric. I like what you've done so far and welcome to the Wiki. :) --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 22:58, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
I guess 4.0 will get a size increase, due to the fact that the Apache 2.2 binaries Olajide will be using is compiled with VC 2008 (aka VC9, released in November last year) and has OpenSSL enabled. So, we'll probably need to add the VC9 runtime(s) (unless their improvement in performance doesn't involve these) and OpenSSL DLLs to avoid some crazy DLL Hell ;)<br />
<br />
MrX, Ric is the one who compiled the Apache 2.2 Migrate. He is the developer in charge of that section of 4.0. I really havent asked him which one he used... --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 03:40, 23 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Ok, Olajide, maybe Ric should get a custom build of Apache with the version reply edited out :D <br /><br />
Anyway, Ric, have you tested your UniCenter Python plugin to see if it would run Python programs like [[wikipedia:MoinMoin|MoinMoin]]? Olajide: How about a [[wikipedia:FastCGI|mod_fcgid]] plugin for running Perl and Python?<br /><br />
<RMS>Ric: I also noticed that on your New Users Python Intro page you mentioned that you like the GNU Free Document<u>ation</u> License, you do know that that's what this wiki uses, right?</RMS> <br /><br />

My tests confirm this is possible OK nothing is 100% secure that’s the real world. It’s all down to a reasonable degree of confidence.<br />

I can lock down pages containing MD5 check sums more importantly the exe files (I like 7Z) cannot be tampered with. It’s not just about security but also user confidence when using the Wiki.

Hi, Ric. May I know where you're getting the Apache 2.2 binaries (for 4.0) from?<br />
<br />
----<br />
Hi I am not sure what Olajide has planed to use on 4 however the binaries I hacked around were:<br />
<br />
Apache 2.2.8<br />

Well, this is a little strange, just read Olajide's message posted on 03:40, 23 May 2008 a few lines above. When I talked about the Apache 2.2 binaries, Olajide said that you were in charged of that, so I guess it is up to you to decide :) <br /><br />
Well, the binaries I mentioned above, while talking to Olajide are from http://www.apachelounge.com/download/, there are some module binaries there as well. <br /><br />
Since Olajide has put you in charged of this, I'm wondering if you have any comments on those binaries. I am also interested to know if you plan to include mod_ssl together with 4.0, or whether you would prefer to distribute that as a separate plugin.<br />
<br />

hello all, i had a few problems on XP sp2 with the firewall. I found that using these commands i can open and close the ports. Can only get this to work when installed as a service tho.<br />
<code><br />
<pre><br />
netsh firewall show state<br />
pause<br />
netsh firewall add portopening TCP 80 MyWebPort<br />
pause<br />
netsh firewall delete portopening TCP 80<br />
pause<br />
netsh firewall show state<br />
pause<br />
</pre><br />
</code><br />
<br />
== XP Firewall reply ==<br />
<br />
those are probably real commands for windows. it does not have anything to do with our server. whether or not the port is open on ur pc is up to you and not for the program to keep secure. ports are open for public sites so outside source can see them.<br />

<br />
hello all, i had a few problems on XP sp2 with the firewall. I found that using these commands i can open and close the ports. Can only get this to work when installed as a service tho.<br />
<code><br />
<pre><br />
netsh firewall show state<br />
pause<br />
netsh firewall add portopening TCP 80 MyWebPort<br />
pause<br />
netsh firewall delete portopening TCP 80<br />
pause<br />
netsh firewall show state<br />
pause<br />
</pre><br />
</code><br />
<br />
== XP Firewall reply ==<br />
<br />
those are probably real commands for windows. it does not have anything to do with our server. whether or not the port is open on ur pc is up to you and not for the program to keep secure. ports are open for public sites so outside source can see them.<br />
<br />
thanks<br />

I removed all the <>(s) that looked like HTML / Wiki tags, I even tried removing the square brackets around the timestamp. Breaking the log into 2 didn't work as well. The error I get is: <center><pre>Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in <br />

=== FileZilla FTPd ===<br />
<br />
I was tired of all those stupid errors and decided to install a newer version of FileZilla Server and Client with the official installer.<br />
<br />
My observations:<br />
<pre><br />
1) It doesn't work with W:\ (Subst Drive), when I tried to upload a<br />
file, an infinite loop occured. I was uploading the file over and<br />
over again and upon each upload the Client would ask me if I wanted<br />
to overwrite the original file. The file still counld't be found<br />
in the Directory List.<br />
<br />
2) I tried it with a folder in D:\ (Local Drive), I couldn't view<br />
the Directory List until I uploaded a file!<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
My conclusions:<br />
<pre><br />
1) FileZilla FTPd is a very buggy FTP Server (or maybe it has lots of<br />
hidden features)<br />
<br />
2) It doesn't work with Subst Drives.<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
For now, let's just stick with Good Old SlimFTPd ;)<br />

Hi, Olajide. You must have had a very busy weekend. So, never mind about the chat, I posted the message above yesterday anyway. However, you must have a look at the forum. It has been giving out weird error messages like [http://forum.uniformserver.com/index.php?showforum=2 this one] (you'll only see them when you try to list the topics in a particular forum) for about 2 days now and I don't think I'm the only one getting those error messages. Individual topics can still be viewed, but only if you know the exact URL for them.<br />
<br />
Yeah, didnt noticed that. Had a look at it today and gave a table crash error. Fixed it though. I think that was the problem. My bad, i've been extremely busy, you dont want to know... When i get on my computer i make sure to check to see if you are online though... as i am online now and you are not .. ;-) lol.

I guess 4.0 will get a size increase, due to the fact that the Apache 2.2 binaries Olajide will be using is compiled with VC 2008 (aka VC9, released in November last year) and has OpenSSL enabled.

<br />
Welcome, Ric, hope to be able to have a nice chat with you sometime :)<br />
<br />
MrX, how about you put a signature so he knows??? lol. am umm Ric, do you think we should use the version number in the title? I think its better if we dont because if anything changes, it will most likely be updated on the wiki so i dont think we need to use the version numbers. Oh yeah.. categories! lol. --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 08:48, 20 May 2008 (UTC)<br />

Hi Olajide, well I have made a start with transferring pages as you can see from the number of edits have not mastered it yet. Anyway I have popped a new battery in the sat-nav and slowing finding my way around.<br />
<br />
Regarding the version number before the release of 4 if you upgrade 3.5 just up the number to 3.6 will avoid any confusion. There’s a question will there be a 3.6?<br />
<br />

<br />
Maybe someday I'll regret answering this on behalf of Olajide, but from what I've heard, I don't think there'll be a 3.6 :) <br /><br />
By the way, hi Ric :) <br /><br />
I '''guess''' one of the reasons why Olajide decided on such a big version jump was that 4.0 will come with Apache 2.2 and maybe because he also has some big plans for the Admin Panel :D<br />
<br />
Thanks for that bit of info. In all honesty I have hacked 3.5 to death on more than one occasion (ok out of its design spec) but straight out of the box it works fine so probably no need for 3.6.<br />
<br />
I think 4 needs to have a little more headroom, by this I mean increase in size with more functionality but not bloat ware. An interesting balancing act! When’s Olajide going to join the circus or his he already a member?<br />
<br />

<br />
Hey Ric, as MrX said, there will be no 3.6. We are maing a big jump to 4.0 from 3.5, due to most of the reason MrX also mentions ;-) lol. And umm, i am already a member of the circus. lol. Uniform Circus.. :) and yeah, everything takes time, and nothing is ever perfect, so everything is good Ric. I like what you've done so far and welcome to the Wiki. :) --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 22:58, 22 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
I guess 4.0 will get a size increase, due to the fact that the Apache 2.2 binaries Olajide will be using is compiled with VC 2008 (aka VC9, released in November last year) and has OpenSSL enabled. So, we'll probably need to add the VC9 runtime(s) (unless their improvement in performance doesn't involve these) and OpenSSL DLLs to avoid some crazy DLL Hell ;)<br />
<br />
MrX, Ric is the one who compiled the Apache 2.2 Migrate. He is the developer in charge of that section of 4.0. I really havent asked him which one he used... --[[User:Olajideolaolorun|Olajide]] 03:40, 23 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Ok, Olajide, maybe Ric should get a custom build of Apache with the version reply edited out :D <br /><br />
Anyway, Ric, have you tested your UniCenter Python plugin to see if it would run Python programs like [[wikipedia:MoinMoin|MoinMoin]]? Olajide: How about a [[wikipedia:FastCGI|mod_fastcgi]] plugin for running Perl and Python?<br /><br />
<RMS>Ric: I also noticed that on your New Users Python Intro page you mentioned that you like the GNU Free Document<u>ation</u> License, you do know that that's what this wiki uses, right?</RMS> <br /><br />
