Ruby on Rails
16 March, 2006 - 17:20 — शंतनूRecently decided to work on a small project for my school. Due to obvious(?) reasons decided to go for web-application. Hemanshu recommended Ruby on Rails. Tried it. And was really surprised with the things I was able to do in short span of time. Worth giving serious time to try out few(rather many!!!) things. For windows evironment try out instant rails. If you are *nix user, there is no need to tell how to get started ;).
How to cvsup FreeBSD ports tree?
11 March, 2006 - 05:19 — शंतनूTo update the ports tree you must run the commands as root.
-
Install cvsup package. Run following commands
pkg_add -r cvsup
rehash
Run 'rehash' iff you are using sh/csh/tcsh. No need if you are running bash.
- Create a file /tmp/cvs-supfile.
Put following in that file
*default host=freebsd.mirrors.tds.net
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress
*default tag=.
ports-all
- To update the ports tree
cvsup -z -g -L 2 /tmp/cvs-supfile

9 March, 2006 - 11:48 — शंतनूWelcome to new installation!!!
8 March, 2006 - 12:28 — शंतनूFor the first time, I have successfully messed up with the upgradtion of drupal. Though it wasn't really messed up, I followed non-standard *nix reinstallation method ;). Well now things are up and I *hope* not to mess it up again. It will take some time for to bring back the lost data. (I have no idea how I am going to get back the lost data). Or maybe I need to rewrite the lost things whenever I get time.
