Comment on Install PDT for Adobe Flash Builder by Dave

Dave — Wed, 13 Jul 2011 06:33:18 +0000

Thanks dude.

Followed instructions and it worked straight out of the box. Only advice I can offer to any others that stumble here is once the 3 items come back from the search for PDT ( in the install new software dialog ), just get the last 2 pdt options and leave the first one. something about accessability module for pdt.

I did this in admin mode, and then once I restarted flashbuilder in normal mode after all was said and done it behaved exactly as I was expecting.

Although admittedly the only reason I’m using flashbuilder is for a legacy project for dad, whereas normally these days I’m using Intellij Idea from jetbrains. Stomps flashbuilder into the ground. little pissed I spent $2900 with adobe to do stuff a $200 app does so much better.

Cheers Jeffery, you made this painless…. now to go back to dealing with a less than perfect environment to make some changes.

Comment on Change Linux User login and Group by Philip Petrov

Philip Petrov — Wed, 27 Apr 2011 06:49:12 +0000

I guess the “groupmod -n ” will require that you are logged in with the user which you are changing; however below you say “make sure you are logged in as a different user”. Aren’t you going to change the group of the “different user” that way?

As far as I know the changing of group and getting rid of others can be done with the following two commands one after another:

# usermod -g
# usermod -G

Alternatively if you want to keep all existing groups as secondary you can use the “-a” flag and directly issue only this command:

# usermod -a -G

This will preserve all existing groups and change the primarily group only.

This resulted in a ton of errors, but most prominently a PHPStructuredEditor failure of some sort. Thanks for the try though. Still trying to solve this problem.

Hi Dmitry,

Why do you ask? Is Chris not working on it anymore?

Comment on MySQL Date Age Calculation by Allan

Allan — Wed, 29 Sep 2010 04:30:42 +0000

I had a similar requirement and started down the same path as your function when it occurred to me that I can simplify everything by add the datediff to 0000-00-00; however, since that not a legal date I had to use 0001-01-01 and subtract off 1 from each field. See below:

DELIMITER $$
 
DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS Get_Age $$
 
CREATE FUNCTION Get_Age( dob DATE )
RETURNS CHAR(20)
BEGIN
    DECLARE years INT default 0;
    DECLARE months INT default 0;
    DECLARE days INT default 0;
    DECLARE age DATE;
 
    SELECT date_add('0001-01-01', interval datediff(current_date(),dob) day ) INTO age;
 
    -- Check that the age we're given is useful
    IF age is null or age = 0 or age = '0000-00-00' THEN
        RETURN age;
    END IF;
 
    SELECT YEAR(age) - 1 INTO years;
    SELECT MONTH(age)- 1 INTO months;
    SELECT DAY(age) - 1 INTO days;
 
    IF years THEN
        RETURN concat(years,'y ',months,'m');
 
    ELSEIF months THEN
        RETURN concat(months,'m ',days,'d');
 
    ELSE
            RETURN concat(days,' days');
    END IF;
 
END $$
 
DELIMITER ;

Comment on MySQL Database backup script by Jeffery

Jeffery — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 09:07:01 +0000

Hi sharynproctor,

Yes you can call the script backup.sh and for security reasons put it below public_html. The script needs to be executed on the “shell” and not via a browser. If you have access to your hosting provider shell, then you can run it via a scheduler (eg cron). If you don’t have access to the shell ask your hosting provider if you can be given access to cron. Most hosting providers have some sort of a Control Panel do upload/add schedulers. Let me know how you go.
