This wp-config parameter

define('SAVEQUERIES', true);

and snippet in functions.php (from Bob Sherron)

// outputs SQL queries to a log
add_action('shutdown', 'sql_logger');
function sql_logger() {
    global $wpdb;
    $log_file = fopen(ABSPATH.'/sql_log.txt', 'a');
    fwrite($log_file, "//////////////////////////////////////////\n\n" . date("F j, Y, g:i:s a")."\n");
    foreach($wpdb->queries as $q) {
        fwrite($log_file, $q[0] . " - ($q[1] s)" . "\n\n");
    }
    fclose($log_file);
}

logs all queries to sql_log.txt. On the server, I can then run

tail -f sql_log.txt | grep "WHERE \`option_name\` = 'sidebars_widgets'" | tee sidebars_widgets.txt

Note the backticks around option_name and single quotes around sidebars_widgets.

Breakdown of the individual commands:

tail -f sql_log.txt

Stream the end of sql_log.txt to stdout, as it’s updated

grep "WHERE \`option_name\` = 'sidebars_widgets'"

Filter only queries that update the row I’m interested in

tee sidebars_widgets.txt

Display the filtered lines on the console and write to sidebars_widgets.txt for later review

On your device:

1. Enable non-Market apps (Settings > Applications)
2. Download the latest android-server APK from http://code.google.com/p/selenium/downloads/list
3. Install the APK
4. Launch WebDriver
5. Determine your IP (Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi settings > SSID)

On your workstation:

1. Confirm that WebDriver is running and available by browsing to http://device_ip:8080/wd/hub/.
2. Run your Selenium script as usual (I use the Python bindings):

   from selenium import webdriver
   android = webdriver.Remote(command_executor='http://device_ip:8080/wd/hub',  desired_capabilities=webdriver.DesiredCapabilities.ANDROID)
   android.get("http://www.google.com")
   # File will be saved on your workstation, not the device
   android.get_screenshot_as_file("android_google.png")
   android.quit()
   

   

Test execution time (average of five runs):

[1] JavaScript enabled (emulates Firefox 3.6)

Test environment

Intel Core2Quad Q8400
Ubuntu 11.04 amd64, Linux 2.6.38
Sun JRE 1.6.0_26-b03
Selenium Server 2.16.1
Selenium Python bindings 2.15

1. Download the TurnKey LAMP stack image (available as VMDK, OVF, and ISO) and open in your favorite virtualization software.
2. Boot and configure the OS and MySQL root accounts

6. Restart Apache

   service apache2 restart

7. Configure MySQL
   1. Login to phpMyAdmin at https://ip_address:12322
   2. Create a user called itop
   3. Select Create database with same name and grant all privileges
8. Download & install iTop files

   wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/itop/files/itop/1.2/iTop-1.2.0-299.zip

   mkdir /var/www/itop
   cp -r web/* /var/www/itop
   chown -R www-data /var/www/itop/

9. Edit configuration file

   nano /var/www/itop/config-itop.php

   1. Change line 26 to your timezone

      'timezone' => 'America/New_York'

   2. Optional: if you use LDAP authentication, change lines 65-70. This will allow any user account in the example.com domain to login (create the accounts without @example.com)

      'host' => 'LDAP_server_hostname',
      'port' => 389,
      'default_user' => 'bind_user',
      'default_pwd' => 'bind_password',
      'base_dn' => 'dc=example,dc=com',
      'user_query' => '(&(samaccountname=%1$s)(objectCategory=User)

   3. Optional: comment out all languages other than en to improve performance
10. Browse to http://ip_address/itop and complete the wizard
11. Optional: configure background processing (cron)
12. Optional: install the Data Model Toolkit
    1. Download & install

       cd /var/www/iTop
       wget http://www.combodo.com/documentation/iTopDataModelToolkit-1.2.zip
       unzip iTopDataModelToolkit-1.2.zip
       chown -R www-data toolkit

    2. Browse to http://ip_address:/itop/toolkit

1. Connect included RJ-45 to USB cable.
2. Install net-snmp:

   yum install net-snmp

3. Download the latest APCUPSD rpms from SourceForge. apcupsd is the base package, apcupsd-multimon is the web interface. For ClearOS 5.2, use the .el5.i386.rpm packages.
4. Install:

   rpm -ivh apcupsd-3.14.8-1.el5.i386.rpm
   rpm -ivh apcupsd-multimon-3.14.8-1.el5.i386.rpm

5. Start monitoring service:

   service apcupsd start

6. Display UPS status:

   apcaccess status

7. Browse to http://hostname/cgi-bin/multimon.cgi

Inspired by this post, I decided to try a Class 1 cert from StartSSL. They provide free certs valid for one year (more info at SSL Shopper). Once you’ve signed up with StartSSL and validated your domain ownership:

1. Change the default message digest parameter in /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf from MD5 to SHA1:
   default_md = sha1 (both lines)
2. Delete the System Certificate
3. Create a CSR for the System Certificate
4. Provide the CSR to StartSSL and retrieve the cert.
5. Upload the cert into Webconfig. This will create /etc/ssl/sys-0-cert.pem and /etc/ssl/private/sys-0-key.pem
6. Overwrite the self-signed cert and key [1]:

   cp /etc/ssl/sys-0-cert.pem /usr/webconfig/conf/server.crt
   cp /etc/ssl/private/sys-0-key.pem /usr/webconfig/conf/server.key

7. Download the certificate chain (ca.pem and sub.class1.server.ca.pem) to /etc/ssl
8. Modify /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf:
SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/sys-0-cert.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/private/sys-0-key.pem
SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/ssl/sub.class1.server.ca.pem
SSLCACertificateFile /etc/ssl/ca.pem
9. Restart Apache:

   service httpd restart

10. Use the SSL Checker to verify that Apache is serving the entire chain (if it isn’t, Firefox will distrust the site).
11. Browse to https://server.example.com:81 and https://server.example.com/SOGo without adding a security exception.

[1] Avoids modifying the Webconfig configuration.

You’ll need:

• Hard hat – Arlington CERT uses the Omega II, but this should work on any model
• Headlamp – I bought this 9-LED, 3-AAA model from American Science & Surplus, but DealExtreme has a wide choice of models (and free shipping)
• Rubber strap
• Small Phillips screwdriver
• Scissors

Steps:

1. Cut the straps from the headlamp mounting bracket and discard. Be careful not to snap off any of the plastic like I did.

2. Thread the rubber strap through the bracket and secure with one buckle. Using only one buckle increases the pressure on the strap and keeps it secure. Keep it off-center so the light can pivot freely.

3. Place the strap around the hard hat.

4. Use the screw to fasten the light to the mounting bracket.

In high school:

…he obviously needed considerable practice, so he borrowed keys to the gym and set a schedule for himself that he adhered to for four full years-in the school year, three and a half hours every day after school, nine to five on Saturday, one-thirty to five on Sunday, and in the summer, about three hours a day. He put ten pounds of lead slivers in his sneakers, set up chairs as opponents and dribbled in slalom fashion around them, and wore eyeglass frames that had a piece of cardboard taped to them so that he could not see the floor, for a good dribbler never looks at the ball.

At Princeton:

When Bradley, working out alone, practices his set shots, hook shots, and jump shots, he moves systematically from one place to another around the basket, his distance from it being appropriate to the shot, and he does not permit himself to move on until he has made at least ten shots out of thirteen from each location. He applies this standard to every kind of shot, with either hand, from any distance.
