Here is what you should pass to ssh so that it doesn’t attempt to authenticate using a Public Key.

ssh-o "PubkeyAuthentication no" user@server

I was getting the following error when trying to login to ssh to a Server.

Received disconnect from <IP>: 2: Too many authentication failures for root

I verbosed to see the errors and got the following:


debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,password
debug1: Next authentication method: publickey
debug1: Offering RSA public key: bijay@bijay
debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,password

By Default because of the ssh config, it was trying to authenticate using Public Key (pubkey)

Just received an Email from The Google Code Jam Team. for this Year’s Google’s annual programming competition.

I had Passed the First Two Rounds last Year but missed the following Rounds due to lack of Time/Unavailablity of a Computer System/Internet Connection on a Sunday.

Hope this Time I don’t loose without being Knocked out of it based purely on my Competence.

Here is the whole Email Content for your Information.

If you are a Geek, Maths/Algorithm Design or Programming enthusiast, I suggest you also Participate.

You do not really need high Programming skills.

The Problems are more of Algorithm, Logical and Mathematical than Programming.

We’re excited to announce Google Code Jam 2009, this year’s iteration
of Google’s annual programming competition, which offers coders from
around the world an opportunity to solve complex algorithmic problems
under time pressure, using the programming languages and tools of
their choice.

The contest will have a new format this year, starting with online
rounds and ending in a 25-person final in our Mountain View,
California headquarters. We’re still choosing exact times for
everything, but for planning purposes we wanted to give you this
tentative schedule. Please note that the timing may change:

Early-Mid August: Registration will open.
+4 Weeks: Qualification round
+1 Week: Rounds 1A, 1B, 1C
+1 Week: Round 2
+1 Week: Round 3

• The long URL:

  Say a site generates a URL that’s 70 characters long or more. When you copy, paste and e-mail this URL, a line break is added. Then, people can’t click on the link or it only links to the first part of the URL.

  Besides that rungss suggests Avoiding Special Characters in Urls. Include Only ([0-9a-zA-Z_-]*) and the slash / if needed

Workaround for Heap Space Problem in Eclipse

Getting Eclipse to Work on Ubuntu

For those who don’t know what LAMP and AJAX is, here is a quick introduction.

LAMP stands for Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP (Palso stands for Perl and Python but I am into PHP only at present) all of which are open source technologies therefore very suitable for small organizations. As the only resources needed is the development and hosting of the application. Generally, This combination of Techniques can solve all your computing, automation and communication needs.

AJAX stands for Asynchronous JavaScript And XML.
This allows you to Communicate between a Web browser and the Server in the background and change the content of the page, or take actions in the server.

Web 2.0 generation web Applications are achieved through AJAX.

Gmail is one such Application which uses AJAX extensively to provide services for all kind of users.

It’s been said time and again that The REAL Programmer automates his job that they are Long Term Life Planners and have Attention to Detail

Here is just an example of ways in which one can automate processes.

I use Seagull Framework for developing faster, secure and feature rich Web based Applications Today, I had to update the Database to fill some blank columns in a table named sgl_permision

I first tried to edit them through the Seagull’s Web based Admin Front end It was taking too long.
Then I tried to edit the same using phpMyAdmin setting the result to go to edit the next page instead of going back to the listing Page still it was very time consuming..

Then I decided to write SQL Queries by Observing the Pattern and using that to my rescue.

Here is the SQL Queries that I wrote to solve the Problem and am documenting so that it can be used in future.

Getting Eclipse to wiork on Ubuntu for all my Development Work proved to be very tricky.
There are issues related to permission compatibility and what not.

Here is what worked for me.
After installing and uninstalling Eclipse and deleting the Workspace for quite a few times, I first removed all the Packages with the search term eclipse from the Synaptic Package Manager (Top Bar -> System Menu -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager)

Then I used the steps as explained in the iteratively documented tutorial at Ubuntuforum in the following url

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=201378

After doing this, the first time I run the Editor from the terminal with the following command
rungss@rungss-ubuntu: eclipse -clean

then I included the following Update sites
name=”Subclipse Subversion Plugin” url=”http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.2.x“
name=”The Eclipse 3.3 Project Updates” url=”http://update.eclipse.org/updates/3.3“
name=”Europa Discovery Site” url=”http://download.eclipse.org/releases/europa“
name=”PDT Updates” url=”http://download.eclipse.org/tools/pdt/updates/“
name=”Web Tools Platform (WTP) Updates” url=”http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/updates“

By default there were two sites

name=”The Eclipse Project Updates” url=”http://update.eclipse.org/updates/3.2“
name=”Callisto Discovery Site” url=”http://download.eclipse.org/callisto/releases“

Here is the link of Update Site Bookmarks which you can import through the Eclipse Update manager.
http://bijay.rungta.googlepages.com/ubuntu-lamp-eclipse-update-sites-boo.xml

Note: be careful with the ending /(slash) for the site urls enter them as is in the above list. Its strange that for some sites the end “/” is valid while not for others.

Then I searched for Updates..

Upon the listing of all available features I selected a few based on my preferences. The following is the list of them

• Subclipse Plugin from Subclipse Update site
• PDT features and PDT SDK features from the PDT Update Site
• Eclipse 3.3 from the Eclipse 3.3 Project Update Site.(I like the view in 3.3 where you can minimize all panels and view any one of them as you wish irrespective of the Perspective you are viewing the Editor)
• WTP from Europa Site and some other CVS related features.

While selecting these features I clicked on the Select Required button when I saw any error for incompatibility in selected features.

Next I signed the Agreements and when Saving them I selected the folder “/usr/local/lib/eclipse” to install features where it was in any other Directory than the base installation location (Basically wherever it permitted to do so.)
This is done so that other users can also use them. Advise taken from the article at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EclipseWebTools

That is all This seems to work for me.
Here are the various webpages that I reviewed many a times during the whole process

PS: The strategy to install plugins in the directory /usr/local/lib/eclipse again had some problems. Was getting an error message saying conflict entries..
I guess what happened is some of the files(a part of some plugin was exisitng in both the directory usr/lib/eclipse and usr/local/lib/eclipse) or may be because i installed Eclipse 3.3 on Eclipse 3.2 I have started the Eclipse 3.3 updation right now and wil realize if thats what the problem was in some time. Will update the post.

So I had to uninstall the Eclipse again and then I reinstalled. But to my Surprise I got the same error again(Conflict..)
I later realized that this was because when I installed it after uninstalling it… It was basically installed from the cache on the Local Computer..

So I run the following command to first clear the cache

apt-get clean

Thanks to teh article at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto

PS: The strategy to install plugins in the directory /usr/local/lib/eclipse again had some problems. Was getting an error message saying conflict entries..
I guess what happened is some of the files(a part of some plugin was exisitng in both the directory usr/lib/eclipse and usr/local/lib/eclipse) or may be because i installed Eclipse 3.3 on Eclipse 3.2 I have started the Eclipse 3.3 updation right now and wil realize if thats what the problem was in some time. Will update the post.

So I had to uninstall the Eclipse again and then I reinstalled. But to my Surprise I got the same error again(Conflict..)
I later realized that this was because when I installed it after uninstalling it… It was basically installed from the cache on the Local Computer..

So I run the following command to first clear the cache

apt-get clean

Thanks to teh article at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto

And then I reinstalled eclipse with the following the steps at the Page

Lets see how it goes now…

Out of several LAMP/WAMP stack packages available in the market I prefer XAMPP from http://apachefriends.org when Working on a Windows machine for my Development Environment.

The XAMPP for Windows can be downloaded from the following link
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html

I download/keep the zip archive of the Basic package XAMPP Windows 1.6.4 which has the following components

Apache HTTPD 2.2.6, MySQL 5.0.45, PHP 5.2.4 + 4.4.7 + PEAR + Switch, MiniPerl 5.8.7, Openssl 0.9.8e, PHPMyAdmin 2.11.1, XAMPP Control Panel 2.5, Webalizer 2.01-10, Mercury Mail Transport System v4.01a, FileZilla FTP Server 0.9.23, SQLite 2.8.15, ADODB 4.94, Zend Optimizer 3.3.0, XAMPP Security, Ming. For Windows 98, 2000, XP.

After downloading it if you unzip the archive you will get a folder structure something like the following
———————————
./xampp
./xampp/apache
./xampp/php
./xampp/mysql
./xampp/perl
———————————
Copy the XAMPP folder to the root of any Drive (Its not really required but to avoid any hassle I recommend that you copy it to the Local Drive root and avoid spaces in any of the paths to all executables)

You can run the Server in many ways. I am going to describe some of them here.

Note: Before proceeding you need to make sure that the default Ports for the Servers that you wish to run or install are free. You can check this by running the Executable file ./xampp/xampp-portcheck.exe This will tell you whether the ports are free or not. if any of the port numbers 80(for HTTP Server) and 443(for HTTPS Server) is not free you will either need to stop/disable the Application that is running on this port or you will need to configure the Apache Server to run on some other port.

To change the default HTTP Port 80 for Apache open the config file ./xampp/apache/conf/httpd.conf in a text editor and replace all occurrences of 80 to the new Port (Which should again obviously be free).
If you need to change the port 443 then open the file ./xampp/apache/conf/extra/httpd-ssl.conf and replace the occurrences of 443 with the new port.

Similarly to run MySQL on a different port you will need to make changes in the file ./xampp/my.ini by replacing the default Port number 3306 with some other free valid port number.

If you are not a hard core LAMP Developer and going to have to run the server only occasionally You can start the Apache Server by executing the Batch file ./xampp/apache_start.bat in the root XAMPP folder. and to run the MySQL server run the Batch file ./xampp/mysql_start.bat

You should be all set to run your applications. Copy Your Applications directory to ./xampp/htdocs/MyAPP/* and you can access the Application with a url http://localhost/MyApp and http://localhost/MyApp/*

But this scheme has a drawback that you cat close the dos window unless you want to stop the Servers. To do so you have to run the Batch files ./xampp/apache_stop.bat
and ./xampp/mysql_stop.bat to stop them.

XAMPP Provides a Control Panel which is a file named ./xampp/xampp-control.exe if you run it you will get a User interface as in the following screen shot

You can simply Start and Stop by clicking the button with appropriate label beside each service. Both the Servers are in running mode in the above Screen shot. so you don’t see the Button labeled Start here.

This scheme is very cool but if you are a hard code developer and will need the Server running all the time then probably you wouldn’t want to have to start the Servers manually each time you boot your System.

You can install the Servers as a Windows Server by clicking on the check box beside the respective Server. Make sure to stop the Server you are installing as a Service before checking the checkbox to install it.You will be prompted to confirm if you really want to install it as a service. It will be installed if you confirm by clicking the button labeled “OK” Once the Service is installed you can start the Servers manually by clicking on the Start button here for the first and last time.

Note: If you have the XAMPP folder in D and select the Service option then you will have to run the Script .xampp/setup_xampp.bat before proceeding because of some bug in this version (not sure about other versions.).

You should be all set now. next time you boot the System both the Servers will be started automatically.
