For those that don't have a powerful machine to setup their own SAP Netweaver instances and play around with. I thought I'd demonstrate how to install on the Amazon Cloud. Setting up an EC2 System on AWS Setting up the Volumes necessary for the install. Setting up an Elastic IP, configuring the firewalls & setting up a DNS entry to point to the IP. Oracle 11g install Netweaver 7.3 install using a remote windows connection to the EC2 system.
So you are at your linux system and you restarted and all the sudden on boot, you get a: Kernel Panic ... What do you do now? Well first of all don't you panic! First step to take would be to boot your system in rescue mode. To do that you need any sort of a live CD. Get a Ubuntu CD and load using it. There will be a prompt that says load using the CD. This is your system booting off the CD. Now that you have access to the Server. What you need to do is get access to your actual physical system.
About 2 years ago I came across groupon. Since then I had started buying a lot of daily deal coupons. I signed up to such services as yipit and onespout. With the help of those sites, I was buying coupons from many group deal sites. Last year (2011), I got fed up with the fact I wasn't sure where I bought some of my deals. As a developer, I thought to myself there must be a better way. So I started writing scripts to go to these different group sites, authenticate, keep my session and allow to download the different coupons that I had already purchased from these daily deal sites.
So today I had to write a plugin for wordpress. I don't personally use wordpress a lot. I like my drupal CMS which gives me better control. But none-the-less wrote a plugin to allow for inclusion of one post from within another post by simply adding the [include id=post_id] into the content of the other post.

Now a days people want data that is relative to them. This includes location specific dynamic data. There are two applications that I think have merit: ip2location and maxmind. IP2location is $199 USD per server for the binary file to narrow an IP address down to the city level. MaxMind is $370 per Site and $90/month for monthly updates of IP addresses.
What is JSONP?
Jsonp is basically json formatting with padding. The padding essentially is set by the server side to automatically call the javascript function that is passed in in the default callback function. That is for example if our ajax is as follows:
$.ajax({
url: "http://someotherdomainurl/",
dataType: "jsonp",
data: {
search_term: request.term
},
success: function( data ) {
response( $.map( data, function( item ) {
return {
label: item.label,
value: item.id
}
}));
}
});
The new thing I wanted to try out this week was to implement a SOAP server using PHP to query against a MySQL database. I also add a memcached server to cache the query results for each SOAP call so that all queries are not hitting the database.
To install a memcached server on the Ubuntu Natty setup was simple. The following command will install memcache as well as the php libraries for memcache and soap:
apt-get install memcached php5-memcache php-soap
