Escape from boredom

For years I have had this folder structure in SVN related to Splunk

|
|_apps
| |_my-config
|
|_deployment-apps
| |_my-config

Whenever doing changes in my-config under apps I have had to manually copy the changes to deployment\my-config. But today I realized that I have had it, so Google to the rescue. The solution was to use

svn:externals

. So what I did was

1. SVN deleted the folder deployment-apps\my-config
2. Updated the folder deployment-apps, added the property svn:externals my-config https://mysvnserver/svn/myrepo/trunk/apps/my-config

Simple as that, and then when you do svn status you will see that deployment-apps\my-config has an X which indicates that is is external

svn status
X deployment-apps\my-config

Performing status on external item at 'deployment-apps\my-config':


Years ago I created a Java program that exports the post from my blog and creates a PDF of the content. I used to have it on Google Code, but is has been taken down a long time ago. Finally I found time to store it elsewhere, now on Github https://github.com/rhellem/b2evolution-to-pdf

Not surprisingly since I am just about to finish the two day intensive GIT traning https://www.praqma.com/training/git-mastering/

By mistake I managed to delete the signer certificate stored in the CellDefaultTrustStore yesterday (luckily in test, not in prod). Anyhow, that caused major issues for the whole environment since no servers/nodeagents was able to communicate with the deployment manager.

Trying to update the nodeagent service following the guideline found at IBM Knowledge Center failed, complaining about the value of the -username was not known.

Unrecognized parameters encountered on the command line: 'wasadmin '

It turned out that I had a slash at the end of the folder name for the washome, which then acted as an escape char for the double qoute

-washome "D:\WebSphere\AppServer\"

Changed to

-washome "D:\WebSphere\AppServer"

and all was fine.

Not first day working after summer holiday, but first day at the office, giving it a fresh start, did wash my water bottle and even the whiteboard – very old doodles meaning nothing – better having a white whiteboard.

Its a book, but work related, not leisure at all. Read it to get a grasp of IBM WebSphere Liberty.

Just noticed my email recycle bin

Trying to access http://www.dagbladet.no/ just now it responded with Error Bad Gateway 502. Whatever reason for the error, I found the custom error page really nice

Sending common_select_deployitenvironment.bat
Transmitting file data .
Committed revision 666.

Better hurry up and commit yet another change.

Did test the iPhones voice recognition, but after way to many attempts my voice was not recogniced. Why it insist on Elin being green beats me
