Opensolaris: Firefox After Update

After update Firefox report this error:

“Could not initialize the application’s security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application’s profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security features.”

To resolve this just delete file cert8.db in Firefox profile folder (/export/home/username/.mozilla/firefox/something.default, replace username with username and something with profile folder name)

MSSQL: Optimize Table(s) (Like in MySQL)

To optimize one table in database:

ALTER INDEX all ON [table name] REORGANIZE

exp.:

ALTER INDEX all ON people REORGANIZE

To optimize all tables in entire database:

USE [databaseName]
EXEC sp_MSforeachtable @command1="ALTER INDEX all ON ? REORGANIZE"

or

EXEC [databaseName].dbo.sp_MSforeachtable @command1="ALTER INDEX all ON ? REORGANIZE"

This works only in MSSQL 2005 and later.

It is not the same as MySQL optimize.

VSFTPD CentOS

1. Install vsftpd:
   # yum install vsftpd
2. To start after reboot:
   # chkconfig vsftpd on
3. Edit /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf:
   anonymous_enable=NO
   chroot_local_user=YES
   userlist_deny=NO
   userlist_enable=YES
   userlist_file=/etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.user_list
4. Edit or create /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.user_list and add usernames with read write permissions
   user1
   user2
5. Add ftp user:
    # /usr/sbin/useradd -g 50 -p password -s /bin/false -d /var/www/html/folder/ user1
6. Set folder owner:
    # chown -R user1.apache /var/www/html/folder/
7. Set shell:
    # chsh -s /sbin/nologin user1
8. Configure SELinux:
    # /usr/sbin/setsebool -P ftp_home_dir 1
    # /usr/sbin/setsebool -P allow_ftpd_full_access 1
9. Configure iptables to open port 21

This will prevent errors if permissions of folders sets correctly (530 login incorrect, 553 Could not create file, 500...)

Paint Chat

Napravio sam malu zanimaciju zvanu Paint Chat. To je flash aplikacija za chat crtanjem.

Fun3D video export

Fun3D sada ima i video export opciju koja podrzava sve video codec-e instalirane na racunaru, kao i razlicite rezolucije i mogucnost menjanja FPS-a.

Fun3D kao 'Open Source' projekt

Kao i mnogi drugi free hostinzi http://fun3d.dotnetnuke4.com se pokazao nepouzdanim i pored svog fancy izgleda. Zato sam odlučio da Fun3D projekat preselim na adresu pod okriljem Google-a koji verovatno neće tek tako nestati.

Dakle, pokrenuo sam Fun3D Open Source projekat na adresi:

http://code.google.com/p/fun3d/

Na ovoj adresi, moguće je preuzeti najnoviju verziju programa. Takodje, svako ko želi da učestvuje u projektu je dobrodošao.

Trenutno radim na izradi help-a u samom programu kao i na uklanjanju manjih bagova, tako da se dokumentacija projekta može očekivati uskoro.

Fun3D Web Site

Kreirao sam web sajt posvećen programu Fun3D. Na sajtu će biti objavljivane sve informacije, novosti, kao i tutoriali u vezi sa Fun3D. Na sajtu možete skinuti i poslednju verziju programa.

Fun3D

Istražujući Visual Basic mogućnosti u 3D grafici, napravio sam program za matematičko ispitivanje prostora. Program je prerastao igranje u VB i sada predstavlja ozbiljnu aplikaciju za kreiranje površina i kriva u prostoru, kao i celularnih automata.


Program je uspesno korišćen u nastavi na Arhitektonskom fakultetu u Beogradu.
