@vaydecap10morgan, how irritating is that leading space problem in DateTime?01:54
cap10morganvayde: heh, pretty annoying01:54
cap10morganoh, that's probably already reported as a bug, isn't it?01:54
cap10morganit just occurred to me that i didn't even check... :/01:54
@vaydeThe reason I ask, is that's the proper behavior of the perl DateTime module01:54
cap10morganvayde: oh...01:55
cap10morgansuck01:55
@vaydeYeah, you have been burining up the bug reports01:55
cap10morganhaha, it's true01:55
@vaydeI can figure a way to work around it, but i'm wondering if that's put in there for a reason.01:55
@vaydeI don't know what that reason might be though.01:55
cap10morganvayde: yeah, seems pretty weird01:55
cap10morganthe month %M one doesn't do that01:56
@vaydethat's cos there's a workaround in the wG version.01:56
@vaydenow that you point that out, that tells me what to do.  thanks01:57
@vaydeI just didn't want to change it before giving someone a chance to point out why the leading space was necessary in some obscure way.01:57
@vaydeFixed your '+' in emails too btw02:00
cap10morganyeah, i saw that thanks02:11
cap10morganthanks for fixing this one too :)02:11
cap10morganif you told a workflow to run in the scheduler (i.e. the manual "Run" link), and it just didn't do anything (nothing in the log, not even at info level), what would be the first things to check?02:12

+perlDreamervayde!  You're up late tonight07:42
@vaydeLate?  Oh I don't know07:43
@vaydeMostly been hangin out hopin you'd show up07:44
+perlDreamerI was in Seattle over the weekend07:44
+perlDreamerany luck with your www_view stuff?07:45
@vaydeI haven't really messed with it this weekend.  I was hunting other bugs07:45
+perlDreamerI buttoned up the isSingleton one just now.07:46
+perlDreamerisSingleton wasn't checked in www_editSaveWorkflow07:46
+perlDreamer:(07:46
@vaydeIt really only showed up in a test wobject I was playing with, so I chalked it up to my mistake.  However I get the same puzzler with debugs put into Asset.pm07:46
@vaydedamn.  I was gonna start the day tomorrow with a simple one.07:46
+perlDreamerah, sorry about that.  But I know why you're having www_view problems.07:47
+perlDreamerWobjects inherit from Wobject.pm07:47
@vaydePlease enlighten me07:47
+perlDreamerWobject.pm's www_view does not call SUPER07:47
@vaydeI must have mistyped07:48
+perlDreameryou put stuff into Wobject.pm's www_view and it doesn't get called?07:48
@vaydethat works allright07:48
@vaydeputting stuff into Asset.pm 's www_view method doesn't work07:49
@vaydeputting them in both yields Wobject.pm 's message only.07:49
@vaydehence it looked like somehow the base class was overriding the derived class07:49
+perlDreamerit is07:49
+perlDreamerWobject.pm has a www_view07:49
+perlDreamerit doesn't call SUPER07:50
+perlDreamerso it's overridden, not extended07:50
@vaydeOh duh!  Wobject inherits from Asset, not the other way around07:50
@vaydeI was thinking Article, and putting my statements into Asset07:51
@vaydeWell, I knew there was a problem, and it turns out that problem is me!07:51
+perlDreamerI don't suppose preaction said anything about MrHairGrease's proposed Post.pm fix?07:52
@preactionperlDreamer: didn't work.07:52
+perlDreamerbummer07:52
+perlDreamerI've been drooling over this07:54
+perlDreamerhttp://sourceforge.net/projects/smolder07:54
+perlDreamerBack in December I did some P6 test hacking.08:00
+perlDreamerThey use something that looks like Smolder (may actually be)08:00
+perlDreamerIt was awesome08:00
@vaydeHmm.  No, it's not just me.  Putting the following into Article.pm yields nothing:  $self->session->errorHandler->warn('foo');  print STDERR "foo \n";08:01
@vaydeneither on the page or in the logs.  It's like the method isn't being called.08:02
+perlDreamerrestarted Apache after changing it?08:03
@vaydeyeah, couple of times08:03
@vaydeand dumped the caceh08:03
@vaydecache08:03
@vaydeBeen wracking my brain trying to find out how that would even be possible, and if it is, how we're doing it.  Seems to be an interesting trick.08:05
@vaydeeven this doesn't work: die "ARRRGH! \n";08:06
+perlDreamerI'm getting the same thing08:09
+perlDreamerWobject's www_view is being called08:09
@vaydeOh good, then it's not just me.08:09
@vayderizen said something about it being a wG thing, but didn't have time to explain.  I may not have communicated what was going on precisely though08:10
+perlDreamerhang on, I have an idea08:10
+perlDreamerThe article you're looking at, is it inside a Layout?08:11
@vaydePage layout?  Yes.08:11
+perlDreamerthat is why08:11
+perlDreamerI think08:11
+perlDreamerLayout calls the child Asset's prepareView directly08:11
+perlDreamerso it never invokes www_view08:12
+perlDreamerThe Wobject call is from the Layout, not from the article08:12
+perlDreamerif you view the Article URL directly, you should see it pop-up08:12
@vaydeSince Layout basically means a page, isn't everything technically in a Layout?08:12
+perlDreamerno08:12
+perlDreamerAssets, in wG 6.3, were originally concieved to be "pageless".08:13
+perlDreameryou wouldn't need a container Asset to have a single Article.08:13
+perlDreamerBut most entry level wG users couldn't get the idea into their heards, so the Layout is used everywhere08:13
@vaydeAha!  Light dawns on shady brook!08:14
+perlDreamerbut if you go directly to any Asset's URL, it will use whatever page style it is configured to have and render you "a page".08:14
@vaydeIf I call it directly it dies screaming.  That's gratifying08:14
+perlDreamerIt's one of the hiccups people have with the CS08:14
+perlDreamersome want it to remain "embedded" in the current page, rather than pushing down into the core CS asset itself08:15
+perlDreamerthis also means that cache specific behavior for the Article is not propagated up to the page through www_view.08:16
+perlDreamerthat's worth bringing up to JT, since viewing an Article on a page will increase the load on the server08:17
@vaydeI'll mention it to him08:18
+perlDreamertomorrow, if you like, I can show you the test scripts08:19
+perlDreamerI've been told that my tests are a little confusing08:19
@vaydeI'll take any help you have time/interest in offering08:19
@vaydeespecially when it prevents me from bugging JT or preaction.  I sense they cringe when I log on08:20
+Radix-wrk"But most entry level wG users couldn't get the idea into their heards, so the Layout is used everywhere" - not just entry level wG users - I'm still this way and don't think that will ever change to be honest.08:21
+perlDreamerI must be making large (and false) assumptions.08:22
+perlDreamermy apologies08:22
+Radix-wrknone taken ;)08:22
@vaydeI didn't really think of 'Layout' and 'Page Layout' as the same thing.  I just figured the page layout thing was a fancy interface to the page's properties.08:22
+perlDreamerit is08:23
+perlDreamerLayout is just a container.08:24
+perlDreamerLike a Folder08:24
+perlDreamerThe Wiki is also pretty much a container.08:24
+perlDreamerand the CS08:24
+perlDreamerand the Calendar08:24
+perlDreamerthey don't really do much beyond aggregate data from their children08:24
@vaydeI see that now.  Thanks.  08:24

ckotilweatherdata is really screwing me19:15
pjesitopic is old :)19:17
@preactionckotil: you're going to have to comment out the sub that adds that column so that your upgrade can run successfully, after you restore from backup19:18
@preactionone of these days someone should remind me to ask TMRFE for a week or two to build a better upgrade system19:19
ckotilok. so i need to restore my back up first?19:19
ckotilthen run upgrade.pl with the commented out sub?19:19
@preactionyes, that upgrade (.10-.11) didn't get to finish because it died in the middle19:20
ckotilok, ya i see an open version tag19:20
@preactionbut the upgrade.pl script kept on going, which i would consider a bug but JT would call an RFE19:20
ckotilheh19:21
ckotilso this sub updateTemplates{}19:21
@preactionno19:21
@preactionthere's a section after WebGUI::Session->open that is a list of subroutine calls19:21
@preactionnevermind, there's only that one thing in that upgrade anyway19:22
ckotilin  updrade_7.3.10-7.3.11.pl?19:22
@preactionyeah, after my $session = start();19:22
@preactionit's fixWeather or something19:22
ckotilgot it.19:23
ckotilcan i just rerun the upgrade script or must i bring up my backup?19:23
@preactionhow long has it been since the backup?19:23
ckotiljust did it a minute ago19:23
ckotiljsut before the upgrade19:24
@preactionit would probably be best to bring up the backup19:24
ckotilk19:24
@preactionsomehow your site got the additional weather column without running the upgrade19:24
ckotili was told to add it while trying to fix  bug19:24
ckotil:/19:24
@preactionthat'd be why19:25
@preactionit's best to bring up the backup in case something in the 7.3.11 upgrade relies on something in the upgrade that failed19:25

@preactionin this case, it probably did not happen, but better safe than sorry and other trite expressions19:25

+snapcountwhat did you submit?21:13
SDuensinThe HGR Macro.21:13
+snapcountwhat does it do?21:14
SDuensinLets you use Apple II high resolution images as assets.  :-D21:14
+snapcountis there a reason that you couldn't do that without the macro?21:15
+snapcountI don't really know what an Apple II high res image is or what's unique about it21:15
SDuensinIt reads them right off Apple II ProDOS formatted disk images and displays them as PNGs.21:15

SDuensinApple II images are 240x192 six color images saved as an 8k raw memory dump of the video page of an Apple II.21:16
SDuensinThey're encoded really funky like.  Woz managed to get six displayable colors (there are actually 8, but two are white and two are black) out of a 1 bit memory map.21:16
+snapcountwell that definitely sounds like an acme contrib =)21:17
+snapcountnicely done21:17

SDuensinI figured that was weird enough.21:17
+snapcountI'm fresh out of Apple II's though21:17
+snapcountso I guess I can't try it out21:17
SDuensinI put a sample image in the archive.21:18
+snapcountso the image can be stored on other OS's and still requires the macro?21:18

SDuensinMakes it a PNG21:19
+snapcountok the light bulb is starting to come on21:19
+snapcountsounds pretty cool21:19
SDuensinYou can have multiple 8k pictures stored in a 140k ProDOS disk image.21:20
pjesiSDuensin: how long time did it take you?21:20
SDuensinFew days.  WebGUI API was the hardest part.   :-)21:20
+snapcountI want to write a code breaking wobject21:20
+snapcountfor substitution ciphers21:21
+snapcountnot brute force though, that's gay21:21
+snapcountI was going to have it use a frequency method21:21
SDuensinDo a one-time pad.  Each run needs a new PM module.21:21
+snapcountbased on the language the message is in21:21
cap10morganso, we have around 55 domains in our webgui 7 installation21:22
cap10morganbut spectre seems to be getting further and further behind21:22
+snapcountThe thing that interested me was the algorithim for breaking the cipher so I was going to write it all from scratch21:22
+snapcountI just like to use WebGUI because of the API21:22
+snapcountgranted it's probably more familiar to me =)21:22
cap10morganthe server has plenty more horsepower to throw at it, but how do i tell spectre to use it?21:23
cap10morgani've tried increasing the number of maxWorkers to 2521:23
cap10morganwhat else should i do?21:23
+snapcountwhat is spectre getting hung up on?21:23
cap10morganthe workflow queue just keeps getting longer and longer21:24
cap10morganit's processing through it all21:24
cap10morganbut it just keeps growing21:24
+snapcountlatest version?21:24
cap10morganyeah21:24
cap10morgan7.3.13 in WRE 0.7.221:24
cap10morganon RHEL 421:24
+snapcountthere is probably a workflow that is hanging up21:24
+snapcountspectre doesn't ignore those anymore21:24
cap10morgani'm watching spectre run, there doesn't seem to be21:24
+snapcountit pushes them to the bottom of the que21:24
+snapcountso if you have a list that is growing... that would be my first guess21:25
cap10morganok21:25
* SDuensin is excited - he just ordered a virtual server to put his WebGUI (and other) STUFF ON! WHOOO!21:25
+snapcountbasically if the wf has a problem it becomes priority 021:25
+snapcountso spectre runs the other stuff and then trys those again21:25
+snapcountset your logging to debug and see if you have errors21:26
cap10morganok21:26
+snapcountbtw this is just community advice21:27
+snapcountI don't work for pb anymore so this isn't official support21:27
+snapcountjust so you know21:27
cap10morganok21:27
SDuensinThat means we don't have to pay you.  :-)21:27
cap10morganhaha21:27
+snapcountthat's one way to look at it =)21:27
+snapcountSDuensin: where did you get your server?21:28
SDuensinLiquidWeb.  I've been using them for some time.  Support is excellent.  (I'd have done PlainBlack, but I need root access and can't afford them - yet!)21:29
cap10morganone of our domains just added a ton of workflow instances to the queue at priority 2021:29
+snapcountI think that higher number == lower priority21:30
SDuensinsnapcount - I just got this:  https://www.liquidweb.com/shared/plan4.htm21:30
+snapcountI never looked at that code after rizen re-wrote it21:30
+snapcountI need to setup a virtual machine in windows... what do you guys recommend?21:31
+snapcountVMWare appears to cost $$$21:31
+perlDreamerinstalling linux :)21:31
+snapcountand I don't like that21:31
cap10morganVMWare Server is free21:31
cap10morganthat's what i use21:32
+snapcountMy bodybugg doesn't work in Linux21:32
+snapcountso I need windoze21:32
+snapcountand I have the muscle to run a virtual machine pretty snappy21:32
+perlDreamerwhat's a bodybugg?21:32
+snapcountamazing what 4 sata2 baracuddas in Raid 0 will do for performance21:33
+snapcountit's a "Make yourself un-fat monitor"21:33
+snapcountits an armband that measures the amount of calories you're burning21:33
+snapcountI want to loose 2lbs/week21:33
+snapcountso I need to burn 1000 calories more than I consume each day21:34
+snapcountthis tells me how many I'm burning and the food log part of the software tells me how much is going in21:34
+snapcountthe software is all web based but uses active x controls so it requires IE21:35
perlmonkey2how does it know how many you are burning?21:35
+snapcountit measures a lot of things like number of steps, heart rate, and the electrical conduction between two points on your skin21:36
+snapcountsome how all of that crap into some formula lets them figure it out21:36
+snapcountpretty amazing21:36
+snapcountalso your skin temperature I think21:36

SDuensinsnapcount, just snag VMWare Server.  It works great.21:44
SDuensinVideo is slow on the Server edition, but you just minimize it and SSH in anyway.  :-)21:44
+snapcountwill that allow you to create the virtual machine?21:44
cap10morgansnapcount: yes21:44
SDuensinOr you could be completely psycho and use CoLinux.21:44
SDuensinYes.21:44
+snapcountok that sounds good... vmware server is the free one right21:45
SDuensinBillSoft also gives away VirtualPC now, too.  I prefer VMWare Server though.21:45

SDuensinI bought a GameBoy DS game.  Figured I could play it while on the couch or wherever and maybe get to game a bit.  My two year old has played it more than I have.  (She's watched the intro at least two hundred times.)21:51

cap10morganso, i have a custom workflow that i wrote that runs fine on my development box23:28
* ckotil 's brain age is 20023:28
SDuensinhehe23:29
cap10morganbut on my server, it doesn't run23:29
cap10morganit doesn't spit out any errors or anything in the log23:29
cap10morganeven when i run it manually in the scheduler admin console23:29
cap10morganany idea what to check?23:29
cap10morgani have a once every 5 minute schedule for it to run, but it just doesn't23:30
ckotilwhat does it do?23:30
ckotilwhat kind of workflow?23:30
cap10morganit processes "actions"23:30
cap10morganwhich are basically dataform submissions23:31
cap10morganonce it's done its work, it marks the datafrom_entry as processed in the db (using a new field)23:31
cap10morganbut that's not happening23:31
cap10morgani see no evidence anywhere that it's even attempting to run... :/23:31
cap10morganhahaha23:32
cap10morganit just ran23:33
cap10morganfinally!23:33
cap10morgan:)23:33
ckotilheh23:33
ckotilso spectre took a while to process it?23:33
cap10morganwow, it took it like half an hour to run23:33
cap10morganwell, it didn't even attempt to run it until just now23:33
ckotilthats one of my biggest complaints with webgui right now23:33
cap10morganand then it completed basically instantly23:33
cap10morganhow asynchronous spectre is?23:34
ckotilnot sure.23:35
ckotilseems to be quite a bit tho23:35
ckotilotherwise why would jobs take so long to process , or even get into the queue?23:35
+perlDreamerIt's very hard to debug spectre problems on dev systems23:39
@rizenpd, i disagree23:41
@rizenspectre has all kinds of debug and testing stuff now23:41
+perlDreamerI should be more clear23:41
+perlDreamerIt's hard to replicate some spectre problems on dev systems23:41
@rizenand as for synchronicity problems, it's got to be a config error, or you've found a new bug that no one else has reported23:41
+perlDreamerspectre seems to be very situatinos dependent23:41
@rizenhave you guys done: perl spectre.pl --status23:42
@rizenIt tells you what's in the queue and how long it's been running23:42
@rizenwhat the status of each things is as well23:42

cap10morganspectre.pl --status is pretty interesting00:41
cap10morgani have a bunch (over 400) waiting workflows, all at priority 20 or 2100:42
cap10morganthe ones at 21 are complete00:42
cap10morganthe ones at 20 are all "never run"00:42

cap10morgandoes 400 workflows seem normal for ~10 domains?00:46
@rizennot even close to normal00:46
cap10morgankinda what i thought...00:46
cap10morganhmm...00:46
@rizenit does depend on your spectre settings though00:46
@rizenwhat does your spectre config look like?00:47
@rizenthe defaults aren't really adequate for a multi-domain server00:47
cap10morganok to paste to channel?00:47
@rizenperlbot paste?00:47
perlbotPaste your code to http://sial.org/pbot/perl or http://erxz.com/pb and #perl will be able to view it.00:47
cap10morganhttp://sial.org/pbot/2395100:48
@rizenwow00:49
cap10morgani love ~70 domains by the time this is a production server00:49
@rizeni wouldn't set max workers higher than 500:49
cap10morganoh, ok00:49
@rizenalso, time between workflows should probably be 1 second00:50
cap10morganok, changing those00:50
@rizengenerally speaking you want the list of running workflows to be empty00:51
@rizenaka zero latency00:51
cap10morganright00:51
@rizenfor example: http://sial.org/pbot/2395200:53
@rizenthis particular box has 90 sites running on it00:53
@rizenthe only ones sitting in the queue are ones that are waiting for approval00:54
cap10morganis priority 20 the lowest priority?00:54
@rizennope00:54
@rizenwell wait00:54
@rizenby lowest do you mean "least"00:54
@rizenthe priorities are 0, 10, and 2000:54
@rizenthe starting00:54
@rizensomething with a priority of 0 will be run immedietly00:55
cap10morganok00:55
cap10morgangotcha00:55
@rizenas things are executed, their priority will increase00:55
cap10morganalright, my queue is steadily declining now00:55
@rizenyou may see something like 243/20 as a priority00:55
@rizenmeaning that it has executed 223 times00:56
@rizenand started at 2000:56
cap10morganoh, ok00:56
@rizengenerally, anything running that long is going to be problematic00:56
cap10morganright, makes sense00:56
@rizeneverything that comes with webgui will fully complete withing 5-15 executions00:56
cap10morganthanks rizen, that's working much more smoothly now01:04
@rizenglad to hear it01:04
@rizenincidentally there's a lot of info about spectre included in the upcoming "WebGUI Administrators Guide" book that i'm writing01:05

dgmtrying to install webgui from source....  and I have to say... the instructions are severly lacking.  21:02
perlmonkey2How long would it take to port WebGUI to use Moose?  I've already tested Moose with Poe with no issues.21:02
perlmonkey2Although I don't start the Poe event loop until the Moose post-constructor BUILD call.21:03
SDuensinMoose?21:03

perlmonkey2dgm, I originally thought the documentation was lacking, because I didn't have a lot of modules installed.  The real problem was the documentation was too thorough and I had skimmed a lot of it, missing crucial steps.  Everything I had to do to get WebGui source running on brand new Fedora boxes was in the documentation.21:08
dgmthe cpan stuff should be earlier21:09

SDuensinHe was fun.21:12
+perlDreameryes, but too bad he wouldn't give more details21:12
+perlDreamerdgm is a PHP/perl/rails dev21:12
SDuensinAh21:12
+perlDreamerperlmonkey2: it would be a big task to rewrite everything in Moose.21:13
* SDuensin is a whatever-the-source-is-in dev.21:13
perlmonkey2perlDreamer: probably makes more sense to wait until Perl6 is production worthy?21:14
+perlDreamerrizen would like to move to p6 when that happens21:14
+perlDreamerIt would be nice (very nice) to have the power of p6 today, but don't you think it would be much slower than regular old p5?21:15
perlmonkey2I've signed up to the pugs project, but haven't had time to contibute :(21:15
+perlDreamerWebGUI can always use more perl hackers21:15
perlmonkey2Slower?  Definetely.  Noticeably?  Probably not.21:15
+perlDreamerare there any Moose benchmarks out there for comparison?21:16
* perlmonkey2 would love to be a full time Perl project hacker.21:16
+perlDreamerI found a little info in Moose::Cookbook::FAQ21:18
+perlDreamerthe big risk in such a big rewrite is that there's no wG-wide test suite to back you up.21:19
perlmonkey2yes, it wasn't a very well thought out idea.  But irc is perfect for those :P21:20
perlmonkey2Plus, since p6 is ontrack for xmas2007, the rewrite would just be wrapped up when p6 design work would need to be started.21:20
+perlDreamermaybe we should flesh out wG's test suite to make such ideas easier to implement?21:21
perlmonkey2And the p6 rewrite will be magnitudes more fun.21:21
perlmonkey2With threading functional and working, I wonder if POE will be necessary anymore?21:22
+perlDreamerp6 has been on track for xmas 2\d\d\d for a long time21:22
perlmonkey2#perl6 is very assuring on this issue.21:23
* perlmonkey2 gets a little sick to his stomach thinking about a redesign of WebGui that would not entail using POE.21:26
* perlDreamer heads off to lunch. bbl21:27
SDuensinWTF is POE anyway?  All I know is that I updated it.  :-)21:31

@vaydeYup.  My great-great-great grandfather was samurai, and I only do chinese martial arts.  My family is very disappointed01:24
@preactioni'd break out the "slope", but i'm white, so therefore I cannot play with racism.01:25
@preactionyeah, i'd say so. how long did Japan have to defend itself against Chinese/Mandarin tyrants?01:26
@vaydeAt least twice, but other than the Mongols, I don't really remember.01:27
@vaydeI'm more familiar with the times it wen't the other way01:27
@preactionthe evil japanese imperialists? I remember one, and vaguely remember that another one might've been a factor in a mongol occupation before the mongols established a dynasty. but i'm probably just admitting my own ignorance01:30
@vaydeI have a weapon style/form that was specifically tailored to fight the japanese katana. 01:31

pjesiit has been changed?06:23
pjesiI think06:23
pjesiyou can convert open source templates06:23
PedersenMJAh, cool. In that case, I might have time to convert a good three or four of them :)06:25
pjesinice!06:25
pjesiI was hoping I can find the time for one!06:25
PedersenMJHey, they're pretty easy. Just go down the tutorial I wrote, working on any given theme. Shouldn't take but 3 to 4 hours, depending on complexity.06:26
PedersenMJSome could take longer, sure, but they're pretty easy overall.06:26
pjesiPedersenMJ: yeah I know how to make them, but just really busy06:26

pjesiIm just really tired, have to submit at noon06:29
PedersenMJThat's never any fun.06:29
pjesibut I learned a lot on these three weeks, so I dont regret it06:30
pjesibut it would be nice to do some fun work that does not require much "brains" like converting a style :)06:34
PedersenMJHeh. I'm working on finishing a python app of mine before I allow myself some of the fun stuff.06:34
PedersenMJWonder if it could be done for perl, actually? It's a three piece tool for python scripts.06:36
PedersenMJ1) Run a compile process over all files.06:36
PedersenMJ2) Run a documentation checker, making sure that all docs are written, properly tagged, etc06:37
PedersenMJ3) Run a unit test coverage checker, which makes sure that every method has a unit test, and that the test actually calls the method06:37
PedersenMJ(woops, 4 parts) 4) Run the unit tests06:37
PedersenMJI don't doubt it could be done in/for perl, but I have no idea how I'd go about it.06:39
pjesipython is cool06:43
pjesithe web frameworks look really promising06:44
PedersenMJCan be, sure. I dunno. I'm using it because it's the best tool for the job I've got in mind, but I can't honestly say I really like it. Sorry, but the mandatory whitespace thing really bugs me.06:44
PedersenMJOkay, this one made me LOL: http://www.bash.org/?25810406:46
pjesiI dont mind it06:46

@preactionof course, all he had to do was say "hold the power button for 6 seconds"10:34
+Radix-wrkpersonally I think both are idiots.. the dell tech was obviously following protocol by asking for his basic questions.. knowing that if he didn't get them up front the guy would hang up10:34
@preactioni hate level 1 techs10:34
+Radix-wrkthat said, he could have told the guy this up front so the guy didn't go on and on10:35
+Radix-wrkbut obviously the second guy is an idiot also who just likes the sound of his own voice and likes to yell and abuse.10:35
@preactioni dunno man, after an hour screwing around with those automated systems, i want to kill people too10:36
@preactionthat added to the "it's so simple I'm stupid for not figuring it out" embarassment of how to turn the thing Off10:37
@preactionafter the first bit of yelling, i'd deviate from script and say "hold the power button down for a few seconds"10:37
@preactionand now i'm reading this thread and i'm wondering why more people do NOT yell at the tech support people...10:40

@preactionthat's not good04:26
@preactionin fact, i would go so far as to call that abd04:27
PedersenMJMeh, I dunno. I've known some sick dogs, and more often than not, it just turns out they need some simple meds, and they're fine.04:28
PedersenMJOf course, the whole neutering thing sucks.04:28
@preactionwhoa, this conversation took a very bad turn04:28

+Radix-wrkI think you're all pretty sick.04:35
@vaydewouldn't be here if we weren't04:36

@vaydeor maybe, we wouldn't feel comfortable here if we weren't sick04:36
@vaydeJeez, you guys have all the interesting chats after I log off04:36
+Radix-wrkPedersenMJ, you're the only one obsessed with neutering I think ;)04:37
PedersenMJHey, it was SDuension who said he was sick as a dog.04:37
@preactiona simple figure of speech turns into a bloodbath of neutering and euthenasia04:38
+Radix-wrkhence why I think you're all pretty sick.. in the head. ;)04:39
+Radix-wrkHave you guys ever heard the term "fully sik"?04:39
@preactioni've not not heard of it!04:40
@preactionno wait. just regular not04:40
+Radix-wrkIt's an aussie slang used by greeks and lebanese over here to say something is pretty cool04:41
+Radix-wrkie. "That car is fully sick Habib!"04:41
+Radix-wrksick/sic/sik are used interchangeably in those sentences04:41
@preactionit's west-coast slang in america, not very midwest yet04:42
+Radix-wrkBecame a big thing after the aussie show and movie "Fat Pizza"04:42
@preactionnik's west-coast i think. come to think of it i don't know where nik lives04:42
@preaction... and fixing one bug reveals another...04:43
+Radix-wrkSo to be called "sick" has other connotations over here.. it can also mean very cool04:43
@vaydeIm midwest.  Minneapolis.  Sick here is just, sick.04:44
@preactionvayde: wait, don't we have a staff get-together this weekend sometime?04:45
@vaydeweek from friday04:45

@preactioni'll need to bring my garlic04:47
@preactiondoes garlic work on you people?04:47
@vaydenope, not crucifixes either.  We're different sorts of terrible evil04:49
@vaydeyou could try beer, or women.  I confess to having a weakness for either.04:49
@vaydethey don't really ward off the evil, just keep it distracted for a while04:50
@preactionhow can i ward off evil with evil? more beer?04:55
+Radix-wrkJust bring buffy along05:00
@preactionbut buffy is part of the "evil-that-is-greater-than-nik"05:01
@vaydeeverything's better with more beer05:01
@vaydeand yes, please bring buffy05:01
@vaydeI like her kind of evil...05:02
@preactionthe pretty one or sarah michelle gellar?05:02

@vaydespeaking of that kind of evil, you guys are lucky, I have managed to persuade the GF that the 'staff get together' is just for staff05:04

+Radix-wrkYou mean this buffy? - http://next-episode.net/babe-of-the-day/babe/470.html05:05

@vaydeyeah, that's the one.05:06
@preactionmy gf's 5 foot nothing and about 120 lbs. i'm six-three, 190. our maturity levels are so different she could be my daughter if i weren't always pawing her. i doubt you can shock me :p05:06

+Radix-wrkfavourite episode was Hush - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hush_(Buffy_episode)05:06

* SDuensin takes more of an interested in what vayde has to say05:09
@vaydeheh, I don't know if I can top myself.05:10
SDuensinWell, if your girl is the dominatrix, that makes you a bottom.  :-P05:11
+Radix-wrkI went out with a Madam once05:11
PedersenMJHmm, lessee: Buy drugs from Radix's gf, or ogle vayde's gf. One legal, one not. One liable to get me punched by three people (vayde, vayde's gf, and my wife), one liable to get me thrown to the ground by large men in blue uniforms who will place me in a large building to stay with large men named Bubba. Tough choice.05:11
@vaydelol05:11
@preactionPedersenMJ: you'd survive the blue men. i'm not sure you'd survive vayde05:12
@vaydenaw, she stopped the dominatrix gig a while ago05:12
PedersenMJSurvive the blue men? Sure. Dunno that I'd survive the Bubba's, though.05:12
@vaydeI pop the cores of heavy bags with punches.05:12
@preactionwebgui question: should different revisions to the same assetId under the same version tag create new revisions? or should an asset only get one revision per version tag?05:12
+Radix-wrkHmm.. interesting one05:13
+Radix-wrkCurrently it does new revisions05:13
@preactionright, but i don't know why05:13
@preactioni mean, when debugging javascript, i've got like 60 revisions of this template05:13
+Radix-wrkWell if something is being edited multiple times before it's committed then you don't necessarily want to lose those changes05:14
@preactiontrue05:14
+Radix-wrkI think it should really combine all of the revisions done under a revision tag when it's actually committed tho05:14
@preactionwhat if after its committed some higher power decides they want B (which was deleted when committed)?05:15
@preactionseems to me the issue is all-or-nothing, and there's a better argument for all05:15
+Radix-wrkthey'd roll back to the revision prior to the latest commit05:15
@preactionbut the changes that made B are lost, A being the original, C being the new05:16
@preactionif B and C were created under the same version tag05:16
+Radix-wrkOh I see what you mean05:16
+Radix-wrkYeah.. better argument for all then for those cases05:16
PedersenMJToo bad there's no good ui to allow the user to choose whether or not to collapse the changes.05:17
@preactionyou can delete revisions. perhaps a revision manager much like the asset manager? with a checkbox list so you can select multiple revisions to delete?05:19

+perlDreamerokay, needing a clue here.  Why would one use $asset->getValue('assetProperty') instead of $asset->get('assetProperty')?06:05
@preactionpd: i believe getValue has the added benefit of looking at the form first. at least, from the docs i read on it?06:07
@preactionit sounded to me like you could use $asset->getValue() as the value of a form element in an asset edit form and it would automatically survive preview / edit errors06:07

@vaydeI got a button for christmas that said: "Jesus saves, Moses invests, Cthulu forcloses!"06:24
@rizenget is the value stored in the db06:24
@rizengetValue is a helper06:24
@rizenit checks the value from form() first06:24
@rizen$session->form->param()06:24
@rizenthen gets the value from the db06:24
@rizenthen gets the default06:24

@rizenhmmm...perhaps i removed it on purpose06:29
@rizenif it's been gone that long06:29
@rizenthen it probably shouldn't be there06:29
@rizenand i just don't remember it06:29
+perlDreamerso the real difference is that get gives you values from the db, and getValue will give you values from the db OR defaults from the definition sub.06:30
@rizenyup06:31
@rizenwe probably don't need getValue() anymore06:32
@rizenwe can probably change get() to do that06:32
@rizenand then write getValue() out of existence in the 8.x series06:32
@rizenbut that's so far off, who cares06:32
+perlDreameror new could pull defaults out of the def sub06:32
+perlDreamerthen we could drop getValue and leave get as is06:33
@rizeneither or...but for now it stays as is06:33

+Radix-wrkhttp://www.plainblack.com/discuss06:46
@rizenthat seems very low06:46
+Radix-wrkrizen: could you do me a favour and rate my rfe when you have a minute?06:47
+Radix-wrkhttp://www.plainblack.com/rfe/request-for-enhancement/additional-post-template-variables-for-cs06:47
+Radix-wrkCompared to the other forums it seems low, but obviously only support users can see the forum, so it's pretty impressive if you look at it that way06:49
@rizentrue06:50
@rizeni don't like your RFE's radix06:50
+Radix-wrkwhy?06:50
@rizenmostly because they are written by you06:52
+Radix-wrk:P06:52
@rizenwhat if i told you that you can already do this06:53
+Radix-wrkhow?  I'd love to know06:53
@rizenand even moreso than that, it has far more power than what you're asking for06:53
+perlDreamer"dumber than a box of rocks"  rjacobsen is too funny06:54
@rizenwhat is this information worth to you?06:54
@rizenperhaps you will punch perlDreamer in the arm?06:54
+Radix-wrksure06:55
@rizenhehe06:55
+perlDreamerleft arm please, I have to perform this weekend06:55
@vaydeooh!  ooh!  pick me!06:55
@rizenthe answer you are looking for is ^-;06:55
@rizenlet's say you write an article^-; that looks like this06:56
@rizenyour synopsis will now be "let's say you write an article"06:56
@rizenthe ^-; special character tells webgui where you want to grab the synopsis from06:57
@rizenso rather than taking after the first carriage return06:57
@rizenit will stop at ^-;06:57
@rizenwherever that is in the text06:57
@rizenin addition to that06:57
+Radix-wrkAhh.. well there's a macro I never knew existed.  You're right, that works a treat.06:57
@rizenit's not a macro06:57
@rizenit's just s special sequence of characters06:58
@rizenanyway...in addition to that, you can actually go one step further06:58
@rizenyou can expose the synopsis field directly06:58
@rizenthen you can type something wholly new into the synopsis if you like06:58
@rizenanyway...i'm going to go ahead and delete your RFE06:59
+Radix-wrkk06:59
@rizenbecause i would have rejected it anyway06:59
@rizenadding variables like those to the collaboration system would have slowed it down tremendouslyy07:00
@rizengo forth and share this knowledge07:01
@rizenin the form of a wiki article07:01
+Radix-wrkfair enough - preaction did mention that too - but he didn't tell me about ^-;07:01
@rizenhe probably didn't know about it07:01
+perlDreamerIt also works in the Article07:01
@rizentrue 07:02
@rizenmost people don't even know that the article asset supports pagination07:02
+perlDreamermost people don't read the docs, that's why07:03
+Radix-wrkHappy to write a wiki article for it - though I don't follow the step further you described or how I would do any of that07:03
@rizenit's actually already done for you07:03
@rizentake a look at the "submission form" template vs the "post form" template07:03
@rizensubmission form sets up the synopsis as a separate field07:04
+perlDreamerthat's another good thing to mention.  The marker only works if there is no explicit synopsis.07:06
+Radix-wrkSo is this documented anywhere currently?07:08
+perlDreamerno07:08
+perlDreamerit is now, but only in the template variables.07:11
+perlDreamerWe can't document it via hover help since there's no hover help for the Post Edit form.07:12
+perlDreamerthat's why a wiki article would be great07:12
+Radix-wrkany ideas what the wiki article name should be called?07:13
+perlDreamerrizen's righteous post content synopsis marker07:13
+Radix-wrkI'll write one up now, and at least to describe how to use it in collaboration system posts07:13

@rizenso we know you didn't rip it off07:19
+Radix-wrkOh cool.. means I could look at entering too then07:19
@rizensweet07:19
+Radix-wrkI could never do my own.. but I can rip off someone elses witht he best of them ;)07:19

wgGuest84can you please give me any idea ?11:27
wgGuest84r u listening Radix-wrk ?11:41
+Radix-wrkSorry.. was busy for a bit then.. lemme catch up.11:43
+Radix-wrkHow are you installing webgui?  are you using the WRE?11:43
wgGuest84no11:44
wgGuest84from source11:44
wgGuest84in a centOS11:44
+Radix-wrkokay.. have you checked your perl setup using /data/WebGUI/sbin/testEnvironment.pl11:44
wgGuest84yes..11:44
+Radix-wrkSounds like a perl module is missing from the error message, but not sure what it would be I'm afraid.11:46
+Radix-wrkAny particular reason you're not using the WRE?11:46
wgGuest84i checked.. Apache2::ServerUtil is there11:46
wgGuest84actually I am preparing a development server.. where there will be a lots of changes in source11:47
+Radix-wrkWebGUI has a lot of perl dependencies, and the WRE is the recommended installation method for this very reason11:47
+Radix-wrkthere is a WRE installation for centos though, and it makes life soooo much easier11:48
+Radix-wrkthat's what we're using11:48
wgGuest84actually I used another previous version before 11:48
wgGuest847.3... 11:48
wgGuest84i installed from source that time..11:49
wgGuest84but didnt face such problem11:49
wgGuest84it's a requirement anyway to install from the source11:49
wgGuest84i am stucked with this error from yesterday :(11:49
+Radix-wrkI don't know I'm afraid.. it sounds like there's a missing perl module that isn't tested in testEnvironment, but not sure how to fix it offhand.11:50
+Radix-wrkMost of the developers are asleep at the moment, preaction and rizen might be able to tell you what it is when they wake up.11:50
wgGuest84could u have a look in the details of my problem that i posted in the forum?11:51
+Radix-wrkbut that probably won't be for several hours - it's the middle of the night for them atm11:51
wgGuest84i c11:51
+Radix-wrkyeah, I've had a look - I'm not that familiar with the source install and perl modules needed these days tho11:51
wgGuest84i c11:51
+Radix-wrkI use Centos myself, but I installed the WRE for it11:51
+Radix-wrkit is THE best way to install webgui - without a doubt11:51
+Radix-wrkI can do a base install of webgui on centos within minutes11:52
+Radix-wrkusing the wre for rhel411:52
wgGuest84but since there is a source release.. that is of some use surely like we are using..:)11:52
wgGuest84in fact webGUI did great on our last project..11:53
+Radix-wrkYeah, I haven't used a source install since version 6.8 tho11:53
wgGuest84so, what do u suggest as of now ?11:53
+Radix-wrkI was having odd issues with perl modules on my previous setup and when i switched to the WRE they all went away - I've been with the WRE ever since11:53
+Radix-wrkI'd highly recommend taking a look at the WRE if you can11:54
+Radix-wrkif you must stick with a source install, I'd come back in say 5-6 hours and try and catch preaction or rizen11:54
wgGuest84is it like.. installing from WRE then I can use the source installation ?11:54
+Radix-wrkthe WRE gives you all of the perl source if that's what you mean11:55
+Radix-wrkthe WRE is a tar.gz file that contains everything you need to run WebGUI - all the perl modules, mysql, apache, etc all in one big file11:55
+Radix-wrkwell.. kinda.. it downloads the latest webgui source and installs that really11:56
+Radix-wrkthe WRE is everything you need to RUN webgui11:56
wgGuest84o..the team leader just solved the problem11:56
wgGuest84webGUI is now running fine11:56
+Radix-wrkexcellent11:56
+Radix-wrkwhat was it then?11:56
+Radix-wrkI'd still recommend the WRE.  Using the wre simplifies upgrades and comes with fully preconfigured apache optimised for webgui.  It also has some nice scripts to quickly add new webgui websites with ease11:58
+Radix-wrkit also makes backing up and cloning a webgui setup so much easier - just copy one directory onto a blank system.11:59
wgGuest84sorry.. was talking to him11:59
+Radix-wrkNo probs11:59
wgGuest84actually he changed some settings in apache-> httpd.conf11:59
wgGuest84he added user "daemon" and Group "daemon" 11:59
wgGuest84probably its the spectre who needs those12:00
+Radix-wrkwierd.. didn't sound like that was where the problem was to me.. but if it fixed it who am I to argue! :)12:00
wgGuest84:)12:00
wgGuest84yeah.. the error message was misleading12:01
+Radix-wrkI'm afraid I'm gonna head off.. 5pm here (and 6pm for you I suspect) - have a good easter! :)12:01
wgGuest84o..thanks12:01
wgGuest84it ws nice talking to u12:01
+Radix-wrkDo itashimashite!12:01

+Radix-wrkI know a little12:02
+Radix-wrkfrom Perth, Western Australia12:02
wgGuest84i c12:02
wgGuest84one question if u dont mind12:02
+Radix-wrkI've been to tokyo though and know a lot of japanese :)12:02
wgGuest84how can i join this irc channel from visual iRC12:02
wgGuest84( that's cool :) )12:02
+Radix-wrkjump on the server irc.freenode.net I think and the channel is #webgui12:02
wgGuest84i couldnt find irc.freenode.net.. actually I am not much used to use IRC12:03
+Radix-wrktry using something like /server irc.freenode.net and it should get you here12:03
+Radix-wrkthen /join #webgui12:03
wgGuest84o...i will try.. 12:03
wgGuest84thanks a lot for ur help12:04
+Radix-wrkno probs.. hope to see you here more often in future!12:04
wgGuest84i hope too :)12:04
+Radix-wrklots of useful and interesting stuff gets discussed here, so worthwhile dropping in and idling like I do :)12:04

sstanvirso.. that ws ur work nick Radix_wrk ?13:10
+Radix_yup13:10
sstanviri ws also thinking so13:10
sstanvirmystery is my problem came back again :(13:11
+Radix_what do the apache logs say?13:12
+Radix_and what is in webgui.log13:12
+Radix_perlbot paste13:12
perlbotPaste your code to http://sial.org/pbot/perl or http://erxz.com/pb and #perl will be able to view it.13:12
sstanvirin the apache log nothing13:12
+Radix_You can paste the info using one of those instead of spamming it to the channel13:12
sstanviri c, ok13:13
sstanvirthnx for the info13:13
+Radix_np13:13
sstanvirbut I dont want to disturb u with the issues 13:13
sstanvirotsukare-sama-desu :)13:13
+Radix_With your dev box.. do you have anything else on it?13:14
+Radix_or is it set up just for webgui?13:14
sstanvirits newly setup13:15
+Radix_If it's just for webgui, then there's absolutely no reason not to use the WRE13:15
+Radix_you can install the wre and webgui within minutes on a blank centos box13:15
sstanviractuallly what is the difference between the WRE and the source release ?13:15
+Radix_the WRE is everything you need to run WebGUI - so it's a special distribution of apache/mysql/perl and all the perl modules webgui depends on.  It also includes scripts to help you get started quickly with Webgui.13:16
+Radix_It doesn't actually include webgui itself - it downloads that as part of the setup13:17
sstanviri c13:17
sstanvirbrb13:18
+Radix_with centos I generally do a basic install, no mysql, apache, perl, etc at all installed13:20
+Radix_then you install the wre and run the setup13:20
sstanvirunderstood13:20
sstanviractually it depends on the team leader.. I will try to convince him13:21
+Radix_the only gotcha I've found is you need to make sure you delete any /etc/my.cnf files that might be there13:21
+Radix_I might point out that the WRE is the recommended method for using webgui according to plainblack - and the best way to get support also13:22
+Radix_there's info in the wiki on doing an install too13:22
sstanviryes.. i checked the web13:23
sstanvirit looks simple to install from the wre.. 13:24
+Radix_it is.. it's great :)13:25
sstanviryou already convinced me13:25
+Radix_good.. my job is done here then ;)13:25
sstanvirhaha13:25
sstanvirbut now is the toughest part to convince the Tl 13:26
sstanviranyway...13:26
sstanvirthanks a lot for ur time13:26
+Radix_Good luck! :)13:26
+Radix_time for me to get supplies for the easter long weekend here :)13:26

@preactionwhat's the WebGUI::Commerce::Item->handler sub for? is it executed after the item is purchased?22:38
@preactionafter checkout, say?22:38
@rizendont' know...i'd have to track it down in the code22:39
@rizenperhaps MrHairGrease knows22:39
@preactionthe docs for the sub say "this executes the handler". no real description of its actual purpose22:39
+MrHairgreasethe handler is executed on payment22:45
+MrHairgreaseit handles the group timeout extension for subscriptions for instance22:46
@preactionwhen the transaction is completed, i see now22:47
+MrHairgreaseyeah22:47
+MrHairgreaseand also on complete recurring payments22:47
@preactionwhich means technically there's no cart at that moment, correct?22:47
+MrHairgreaseyes22:48
+MrHairgreasewell22:48
+MrHairgreasei would think so22:48
+MrHairgreaseit has been some time since i last looked at it22:48
@preactionthe idea is this: i need the ID of the cart that the item belonged to22:49
+MrHairgreasecarts don't don't have an id22:49
+MrHairgreasea cart i tied to a session22:49
+MrHairgreasemaybe you mean the transaction id?22:49
@preactionthen how do carts survive across sessions?22:49
+MrHairgreasethey don't22:50
@preactionhow can i logout and log back in and still have items in my cart?22:50
+MrHairgreaseoh22:50

+MrHairgreasei know22:51
+MrHairgreaseif you log out22:51

@vaydeIs there an easy way to tell when a modification was placed into the core?  Right now I'm doing it the hard way, but downloading the old version, untarring it and looking at the file.  We're all way to lazy to put up with that b.s. for long22:57
@preactionsvn blame22:58
@preactiongives you the revision number of lines of the code iirc22:58
@vaydethanks 22:59
@vaydeOk, now having found the right svn version, how do I relate that to an actual release?  (I'm very new to svn)23:02
@preactionhttp://svn.webgui.org <- look up the messages around the revision, the first one that says "X.X.X released" is the version it was in23:11

@rizenhonest00:32
+MrHairgreaseyou suck =)00:33
@rizenthis is the potential design for the new webgui.org00:33
@rizensplit off from plainblack.com00:33
@rizeni'm pretty happy with it00:33
@rizenbut before we proceed, i'd like a few gut reactions00:33
+perlDreamernot bad for a front page00:33
+MrHairgreasethe design is good00:34
+MrHairgreasebut i don't like the yellow00:34
+perlDreamerwhat does real front page look like (the one that analogs pb.com/support)?00:34
@rizenpd, this isn't about content00:34
@rizenthis is about style00:34
+MrHairgreasewhat is good00:34
+MrHairgreaseat least i guess00:34
+MrHairgreaseis that is does not have the generic-clean-look that mambo and joomla etc have00:35
+MrHairgreaseit kinda makes it stand out00:35
+MrHairgreaseotoh those 'clean' layouts have a more professional touch00:35
+MrHairgreasesober like the tax department00:36
+MrHairgreasealso00:37
@rizeni think it looks clean, it's just not sparse like those00:37
+MrHairgreasei don't like the blue webgui logo00:37
@rizenthe logo is orange like always00:37
+MrHairgreaseleft of that00:37
@rizenor do you mean the font that says "webgui"00:37
+MrHairgreaseyeah00:37
+MrHairgreasethe font is just not my thing00:37
@rizenok, it's one thing to say that you don't like the colors (yellow background, blue font), but i need to know why00:38
+MrHairgreaseit has this 90's a have website appeal00:38
@rizenwithout the why, i can't change it to something good00:38
+MrHairgreaseok00:38
+MrHairgreaselet me think on how to word that00:38
@rizenso you also don't like the modern font?00:38
@rizenin addition to the color?00:38
+MrHairgreaseyes00:40
+MrHairgreaseand it's background00:40
+MrHairgreaseit just doesn't fit in with the rest00:40
@vaydeI think the yellow draws the attention away from the content.  It should frame it, point it up, not overwhelm it00:40
+MrHairgreasei guess why i don't like the color is00:40
+MrHairgreaseb/c their 'weak' 00:41
+perlDreamerit needs more content area00:41
+MrHairgreasei know the dutch word00:41
+MrHairgreasebut i dunno the translation00:41
@vaydemore content area, yeah.  content seems buried00:41
+MrHairgreaseno00:41
+MrHairgreaselittle content on the frontpage is good00:41
+MrHairgreasepeople will only read two lines or so00:41
+perlDreamerbut rizen said this is "the style"00:41
+perlDreamerare sub-page style different rizen?00:42
@vayderight, but that's what we're talking about00:42
+MrHairgreasethe download button is good00:42
+MrHairgreasevery visible00:42
@vaydenot necessarily what the content is, but the balance between the content area and the stuff on the left seems visually off.00:42
+perlDreamerthe links to the forums and wiki needs to be as visible00:43
@rizenthe design you're looking at is the front page design, but all the other pages will be a variation on a theme00:44
@rizenfor example00:44
+MrHairgreaseyeah, but that's those three buttons below the content right?00:44
+perlDreamerif so, then I'm happy00:44
@rizenthe banner for the webgui conference is will not be on every page, that's only to show off an example crown00:44
@rizenon most content pages, the content section will be pushed up00:45
+MrHairgreasewhat i mean by colors and visibility is eg. the firebug page00:45
+MrHairgreasehttp://www.getfirebug.com/00:45
+MrHairgreasestrong colors00:45
@rizenalso the page will be stretchy, it won't be limited to the width you're seeing it at now00:45
+MrHairgreasebig content that says what the stuff does00:45
@rizenso there will be plenty of room for content00:45
+MrHairgreaseand a big install me button00:45
+perlDreamerLet me roll up my opinion.  I like it.  It's bright and different without looking bad.  Links to wiki and forum need to be prominent and content areas should be maximized .00:45
@rizenon the pages that need it the yellow strip on the right side will be stretched out, and the "recent discussion" macro will go in there00:46
@rizenMrHairGrease, I could also argue that the colors of the firebug site are weak00:47
@rizenmustard yellow is not a weak color00:47
@rizenit's not like canary yellow00:47
+MrHairgreaseyou asked my my opinion00:47
+perlDreamerhow does Gooey look on there?  does he clash?00:47
+MrHairgreasethat's one of the few things that is not negotiable with me =)00:47
@rizeni know...and i'm not trying to say that your opinion is wrong, just that i don't agree that the colors are weak00:48
+MrHairgreasewhat i mean with weak is their too pastel for my tastes00:48
@rizengooey looks great00:48
@rizengooey is pastel you moron00:48
@rizen=)00:48
+MrHairgreasenever said i liked gooey too =)00:48
+perlDreamerwatch out, them's fighting words!00:49
+perlDreamerinsulting a project's mascot is like making a website in baby-puke yellow00:49
+MrHairgreasenever had any children00:49
@rizenpurple and yellow are great colors together...that's part of the reason we chose yellow as the background color here00:49
+MrHairgreasewouldn't know what that looks like00:49
@rizenpurple and yellow are the colors of royalty00:49
+MrHairgreaseha00:50
+perlDreamertrust me on this one, MHG.  Given the bilious nature of stomach acid, it's baby-puke yellow.00:50
+MrHairgreasethe only royalty i care for is royaly sized drinks00:50
@vaydenot to mention the colors of the MN Vikings00:50
+MrHairgreasepd: thanks for the tip00:50
+perlDreamerBut this is Wisconsin.....?00:50
+MrHairgreasei'll put children on hold for even longer =)00:50
* SDuensin still doesn't like the yellow.00:51
@rizenwebgui is bigger than wisconsin00:51
+perlDreamerMrHairGrease, if you weaken and need a refresher, we can take care of you.00:51
+MrHairgreasepd thanks00:51
@rizenSDuensin...is it because you don't like yellow as a color, or the particular yellows that we've chosen?00:51
+MrHairgreasenice to be able to count on people00:51
+MrHairgreaserizen, with weak is meant pale00:52
+MrHairgreasethat's the word i was looking for00:52
SDuensinI just don't care for it as the base color on a web site.00:52
@rizenso your bias is against yellow in general then00:53
@rizennot specifically the colors we've chosen00:53
SDuensinYea00:53
@rizenok...quick poll...who here won't like this design no matter what variety of yellow we put on it?00:55
+MrHairgreaseit's not really my taste00:56
SDuensinDesign is fine with me.  The font on the lozenges is a bit hard to read.00:56
@vaydethe lozenge font is hard to read00:57
@rizenwe'll be using a different font on the lozenge when we go out, cuz i can't read it either00:57
@vaydethe Z's could be taken for an attempt at a lower case L00:57
+MrHairgreaseit's the same font as the webgui image00:58

@preactionmake a remote login to one of the mysql servers, then it's as simple as:04:12
@preactionmysqldump -hhost1 <db1> | mysql -hhost2 <db2>04:13
SDuensinYea.  I used to do that to back up databases on a point of sale system I wrote.04:13
@preactionand then: scp -r host1:/data/domains host2:/data04:13
@preactionshell programming is fun04:14
SDuensin:-)04:14
@rizenyou should feel dirty for touching the ems, but not for understanding it04:14
@vaydeSo, no problems with wG on a virtual private server?04:31
-!- PedersenMJ [n=Pedersen@mail.icelus.biz] has joined #webgui04:33
PedersenMJhey all04:33
@vayderizen, does a 'virtual private server' entail any special conditions for wG?04:35
SDuensinNope, vayde.  I simply turned off the existing Apache and loaded the WRE.04:35
-!- sstanvir [n=Tanvir@s208148.ppp.asahi-net.or.jp] has joined #webgui04:35
@vaydecool.  I had my old ISP asking for details about it.04:35
@rizennope. no special conditions04:36
@rizenbut you'll need a hell of a lot of ram in the physical server04:36
@rizenbecause each VPS will need at least 512 to make webgui run04:36
@rizenand it better be a multiprocessor box as well04:36
SDuensinIt is.  :-)04:37
SDuensinCould have more RAM, but I can get more later:   http://www.liquidweb.com/shared/plan4.htm04:37
sstanvirhello04:39
sstanvirI need some help04:39
@rizenvery cool sd04:39
@rizenwe'd like to offer vps, but it's just not worth it financially to us. you have to sell a lot of them to make it worth while04:40
@rizenplus we can't offer it cheap enough04:40
@rizenwhat sort of help sstanvir?04:40
SDuensinYea.  Like I said, I feel bad for not using PB, but I can't beat that price.  (And I can't afford PB.)04:40
sstanvirthnx for reply04:40
@vaydeI know a guy locally that will do it for $25/month.  Not sure what the hardware or details are though04:41
sstanviri posted the details here+04:41
sstanvirhttp://www.plainblack.com/install/upgrade_help/fresh-installation-of-webgui-7.3.13?layout=nested#idlOK_myX1AqKV_SeSmHWhZw04:41

sstanvirhttp://www.plainblack.com/etcetera/cant-locate-object-method-server/2/re-cant-locate-object-method-server04:41
sstanvir(the last message)04:41
sstanviri guess both relates to same problem.. may be due to perl installation ...04:42
PedersenMJsstanvir: Hang on, I run Debian unstable/testing at home, and have it working. That's a missing package. Lemme get the list.04:43
PedersenMJgooeybot pastebin04:44
sstanvirok04:44
PedersenMJDang, need a pastebin site, and can never remember where they are.04:44
PedersenMJperlbot tell me about pastebin04:44
sstanvir(FYI: i am installing in a CentOS)04:44
@rizenperlbot paste?04:45
perlbotPaste your code to http://sial.org/pbot/perl or http://erxz.com/pb and #perl will be able to view it.04:45
SDuensinI just installed WebGUI on CentOS 4 using the RHLE4 WRE.  Worked like a champ.04:45
sstanvirbut I am installing from the source.. and I have to install from the source 04:45
PedersenMJhttp://sial.org/pbot/2404004:45
@rizenwhat are the results of the following commands:04:46
@rizenwhich perl04:46
@rizenperl -v04:46
SDuensinYou have to?  Why?04:46
sstanvirwhich perl -? /usr/local/bin/perl04:46
sstanvirperl -v - > This is perl, v5.8.8 built for i686-linux ....04:47
sstanvirSDuensin is asking the reason for installing from source? well.. actually I am preparing a development server for a project04:48
sstanvirand most vital reason is..it's the order from the management to install from the source :(04:48
SDuensinOh yea.  Very familiar with that reason.04:49
PedersenMJHmmm... Couldn't you do that by downloading the WRE source file, and compile that?04:49
sstanviractually I can't argue with that.. there are lots of policies.. or reasons04:50
sstanvirand obviously there is some reason to release webgui source.. right ?04:50
PedersenMJWait, I didn't read *your* part of the post, sstanvir: Your problem is more basic than that. Unless you *are* running www.domain.com04:50
PedersenMJspectre.conf - POE::Kernel::_dispatch_event[1012] - ADMIN: Couldn't connect to WebGUI site www.domain.com.conf04:51
sstanvirok..please read the post. if u have some time04:51
PedersenMJI did. I think.04:51
sstanvirok04:51
sstanviras per my knowledge I installed all the modules 04:52
sstanvirbut perl preloade.perl says.. can't find Apache2::ServerUtil-> server04:52
PedersenMJWhere did you install WebGUI to? /data/WebGUI ?04:52
sstanvirright04:52
PedersenMJls /data/WebGUI/etc/*.conf04:53
sstanvirwell: +04:53
sstanvirlog.conf spectre.conf  www.domain.com.conf04:54
PedersenMJOkay: Are you the webhost for domain.com ?04:54
sstanviryou mean DNS ?04:55
PedersenMJNo, I mean: Are you running the computer that will serve the pages if I point my browser to http://www.domain.com/04:55
sstanvirwe are just using a name for development.. moreover it's machine that doesn't even have a real IP04:56
PedersenMJThat's fine. But, unless I'm mistaken (and about to get a smackdown for it) spectre (a very critical piece of webgui) must be able to connect to what it *thinks* is a real domain.04:57
@preactionyou can use /etc/hosts to point spectre in the right direction04:57
@preactionbut don't use "domain.com", use "example.com", which is actually set aside by the ICANN for use in things like this04:57
@preactionor just use "localhost"04:57
PedersenMJYes, perfect suggestion. I was thinking I was going to need to find a good dns tutorial :)04:57
sstanviractually instead of domain we used some name   [domain].com04:58
@preactionmais oui04:59
sstanviri also did the installation of webgui before with webgui7...  some version.. 04:59
sstanvirthat time there was no such problem04:59
sstanvirso.. what r u suggesting..04:59
sstanviri have to have the same name in /etc/host as the www.domain.com.conf _05:00
sstanvir?05:00
PedersenMJSpectre is relatively new. I don't know which version started requiring it, but it was in the 7.x series. I think it was 7.2.05:00
@preactionyour server has to know what it is, right?05:00
@preaction6.99 started spectre05:00
@preactionwhich was the beta for 7.005:00
sstanvir(i installed 7.3.5 or 7.3.6 i guess before)05:01
PedersenMJ7.3.5 is a version that I *know* required spectre in order to operate properly.05:01
sstanviri know.. because I read about spectre and prepared some documents for office internal use on the configuration issues05:02
sstanviri found there are two different directory structure for perl in the server:05:04
sstanvirone is in /usr/local/lib/perl505:04
@rizenyeah, if you're using perl out of /usr/local05:04
PedersenMJBTW, sstanvir: I just ran "perl preload.perl" from the command line, and got the same issue (unable to locate method server), even though WebGUI runs fine.05:04
@rizenthen you also have one in /usr/bin05:04
sstanvirother is /usr/lib/perl505:05
@rizenare you using the apache that came with centos?05:05
sstanviri installed separately ..2.0.5905:05
@rizenand you told that new apache specifically where your new perl is?05:05
sstanviryes..u mean in httpd.conf?05:05
@rizenno..i mean at compile time05:05
@rizenwhen you compiled modperl05:06
@rizenyou had to tell it which perl to use05:06
@rizenif you didn't do that, then it's probably using the /usr/bin version05:06
@rizenrather than /usr/local05:06
sstanviri did one thing.. i linked the /usr/bin/perl to /usr/local/bin/perl05:06
@rizenin addition, since you compiled your own apache, you have to download and install libapreq2 from the apache site05:06
@rizenand compile that manually05:06
sstanviryes.. i did that too05:06
@rizendon't know what to tell you then. sounds like you did everything right05:07
PedersenMJsst: What do you you linked /usr/bin/perl to /usr/local/bin/perl?05:07
sstanvirsorry PedersenMJ...can u pls repeat the que05:08
@rizendoes "management" ever acutally log in to the server? if not, just use the WRE. wre-0.7.2-rhel4 was compiled on CentOS 405:08
@rizenyou'll save yourself piles and piles of headache05:08
PedersenMJsst: What do you mean when you say you "linked the /usr/bin/perl to /usr/local/bin/perl" ?05:09
sstanvirthnx rizen.. but my team leader is strict to install from the source05:09
sstanviri mean.. there was one /usr/bin/perl.. i guess from some previous installation05:09
sstanvirafter I install perl-5.8.8 , i found /usr/local/bin/perl05:09
@rizenand going back to the reason that we release as source...it's not so "management" can say install from source. it's so people that don't use the OS's we compile for can build for their own distro05:09
sstanvirunderstood rizen05:10
PedersenMJSo, sst: What did you do to make this link happen?05:10
sstanvirand pedersen.. to make sure that when i execute perl05:10
sstanvirit invokes the latest installation.. i linked the old binary to the new one05:10
@rizenhere's an idea if you're absolutely unwilling/unable to use the WRE...what you could do is download the WRE source tarball, and look at build.sh that comes with it05:10
@rizenthat will give you step by step instructions on the commands you need to use to compile successfully05:11
PedersenMJWhat command(s) did you use to link the old binary to the new one?05:11
sstanvirln -s05:11
sstanvirnow /usr/bin/ shows  : perl -> /usr/local/bin/perl05:12
@rizenhey peeps...the first new book is out05:12
@rizenhttp://www.lulu.com/content/77972305:12
SDuensinBooks!?05:12
@rizenand the b/w edition http://www.lulu.com/content/78000705:12
SDuensinBOOKS!05:12
SDuensinWHOO!05:12
PedersenMJAh, so instead of running "ln -s" you ran "ln -s /usr/local/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl". That's what I was trying to ascertain.05:12
sstanviryeah05:13
sstanvircomeon.. i am not much of an expert.. but i am not that stupid ;)05:13
PedersenMJOoof. $100 is a tough price for me to pay right now. But I would love to get it.05:14
PedersenMJsst: You could have done a number of different things when you say that you linked the two. I wanted to know which of the items on the list you had done, so I could provide ideas on where to look next to resolve any problems.05:18
PedersenMJEven saying you had done "ln -s" *still* left open quite a few possibilities, ranging from the simple ln command above, to a backwards version of it, to having written a script that would loop over everything under /usr/local, looking for perl files, and symlinking them back into the main /usr/lib/perl area to make sure you didn't accidentally use the one from /usr/local.05:19
sstanvirhmm05:21
sstanvirwhat if i just remove the /usr/bin/perl05:21
@preactionsstanvir: probably a Very Bad Idea (tm)05:22
PedersenMJA very real possibility for your issues right now is that your compilation of mod_perl for Apache picked up the include files under /usr/include, instead of the ones from /usr/local (assuming that they are there). Now, you run perl from /usr/local, and things look good there, but Apache (and mod_perl) don't see the same version you do, because they're not running the same code.05:22
sstanviri c05:23
sstanviryeah.. that could happen05:23
-!- vayde [n=vayde@209.134.142.196] has quit [Remote closed the connection]05:24
PedersenMJSo, go with what rizen suggested: Download the WRE, follow the steps in build.sh. After that, make sure that your machine sees the hostname you expect Spectre to see, and thinks that that hostname points to itself (for instance, have "127.0.0.1 www.domain.com" in /etc/hosts 05:25
sstanvirconsidering the possibility that u mentioned about apache and mod_perl05:26
sstanvirwhat if I compile those again ?05:27
PedersenMJWell, wre contains Apache, mod_perl, and everything else. If you follow the full set of steps in build.sh, you'll be rebuilding them anyway.05:27
sstanvirunderstood05:28
sstanvirbut I thought as of now ..just to try compiling apache.. mod_perl ..05:28
PedersenMJGo for it. Worst thing that could happen is that you accidentally do rm -rf / and have to rebuild the server :)05:30
sstanvir:)05:30
sstanvirbtw.. when I installed apache2, 05:31
sstanviri did this: ./configure --with-z=/usr/local/lib 05:31
PedersenMJSince I don't know apache2 compile time options off the top of my head, I'll have to go with "Cool. Glad for you. Hope it helped."05:33
sstanvir:)05:33
sstanviroh man...05:33
sstanvirrizen told me one thing.. when to install mod_perl , during compile time i have to specify which perl to use05:33
sstanvirhow to do that?05:34
PedersenMJProbably has to do with some of those apache2 compile time options that I've not memorized, but which would be listed/used in build.sh to ensure that the correct perl is used for the WRE.05:34
sstanvirokey :(05:35
sstanvirthe world is leading me to WRE.. but the team leader is against the world05:35
SDuensinI know the feeling, sstanvir.05:36
* SDuensin quit the job he had that was like that.05:36
PedersenMJNo, the world is leading you to the absolute ultimate answer for your questions: How to build from source. Since WRE does it, and does it automatically, there's code that automates the process. And that means you can read the code and duplicate the results.05:37
@preactionspecifically: wre/sbin/build.sh05:37
@preactionsstanvir: if you insist on installing mod_perl from cpan, make sure you use the right Perl instance05:38
sstanviri downloaded the mod_perl-2.0.3 05:38
@preactionwhy not just use cpan?05:39
sstanvirwell.. that can work as well05:39
sstanvirbut how to make sure to use the right perl instance05:40
@preactionit will install it into the Perl that you're using cpan with05:40
sstanvir i have /usr/bin/cpan and /usr/local/bin/cpan05:41
sstanvirif i invoke perl -MCPAN -e shell 05:42
sstanvirit should use the right one?05:42
@preactiondepends on the answer to `which perl`05:43
@preactionwhich one is the Right one?05:43
sstanvirwhich perl is /usr/local/bin/perl05:43
sstanvirthis is the right one05:43
@preactionso "perl" will run "/usr/local/bin/perl", and "cpan" will probably run /usr/local/bin/cpan (you can verify with 'which cpan')05:44
@preactioncpan for that perl will install modules for that perl05:44
sstanviryes05:45
sstanvirmod_perl is in Bundle::Apache2 right? do u know the specific name of the module05:46
@preactiondo a search for Bundle::Apache205:50
@preactionor just Apache205:50
sstanvirok05:52
sstanviranyway.. thanks a lot for your help and time preaction, PedersenMJ, rizen, SDuensin....05:53
sstanviryou guys are really nice..05:53
sstanvirso.. I will continue the battle.. and get back to u later with results..05:54
sstanvirwish me luck05:54
sstanvirbfn05:54
@rizengood luck05:54
PedersenMJlots of luck to you.05:55
@rizenis there anything better than warm bread right out of the oven05:57
@rizendrizzled with a little melty butter05:57
@rizenmethinks not05:57
@rizenjust made a loaf of bread05:57
@rizenso good05:58
SDuensinAaahhaahhhhh....fresh bread!05:58
PedersenMJAh, maybe add some small amounts of honey to the butter. Not necessary, but can make a nice touch.05:58
PedersenMJFresh bread is the best, though, butter or no :)05:59
@rizenpedersenmj...the b/w version is only $7505:59
@rizenand the book is almost 400 pages05:59
@rizenlots of stuff in there05:59
@rizenhmmm...will have to try the honey05:59
@rizenhaven't tried that one05:59
SDuensinI'll need to make a bit more hosting money and then pick that book up.05:59
@rizennot that i'm asking you to buy the book05:59
PedersenMJI know. $75 comes into range for me. And *believe* me, I don't doubt the value. Just more than I can do at this point. Although... I've got some cash coming my way soon ... ;)06:00
@rizenindeed06:00
@rizenif you prefer i can take it out of the money i'm sending you06:00
@rizenand send you the book06:00
* SDuensin wants to support PB and wG.06:00
PedersenMJWhat the hell. Yeah, I like that idea.06:01
@rizenok, which version would you like?06:01
PedersenMJJudgment call: Does the color add value to the contents? Or is the book totally fine without it?06:02
PedersenMJAnd: Does it affect how much plainblack gets?06:03
PedersenMJBetter answer: Screw it, go for the color. Might as well, eh?06:03
@rizenplain black makes far more on the b/w version06:03
@rizenbut the color one is cooler06:03
@rizencuz the screenshots are more legible in color06:04
PedersenMJDamn, now I'm torn between the two. Legibility matters, but so does supporting pb.06:05
PedersenMJI might be showing this to other people. Color will make them happier with the product. Color it should be.06:06
@rizendon't worry about supporting us06:07
@rizengo with the one you want06:07
@rizencolor it is06:07
PedersenMJCool. Those two books should be a *very* lovely jump off point for me. I've got just enough knowledge to go in and muck about, and maybe get what I want. Having more information is always a good thing.06:09
@rizentwo books?06:10
PedersenMJWebGUI Primer as well.06:11
@rizenoh right06:11
@rizenfrom the contest06:11
@rizenyou'll probably just end up giving the primer away06:12
PedersenMJExactly. Enough reading material to keep me occupied for a while.06:12
PedersenMJEventually, yeah. But I do intend to at least leaf through it first. And see afterwards who it should go to.06:12
@rizeneverything covered in the primer is also covered in the cm guide...just in a hell of a lot more detail06:12
@rizenlook at it this way06:12
@rizenthe books that we are building now (starting with the CM guide)06:12
@rizenare for the webgui professionals, like yourself06:13
@rizenand the primers are the cheap books that can be handed out to the staff as a reference guide06:13
@rizenthe primer is a good book06:13
@rizenbut if you have the cm guide..you don't need the primer06:13
@rizeni'll send it to you anyway06:13
PedersenMJAh, okay. primer is way to hook somebody, basically.06:14
PedersenMJI think I know some people to slip that too, then, to get them started :)06:14
@rizencool06:14
@rizeneven though we just are now releasing the CM guide, we're already planning the second edition of it06:15
@rizenit won't be out for 6 months to a year06:15
SDuensinBOOKS!   We like books.06:15
@rizenbut it's going to be another 100 page or so of content06:15
@rizenso much in fact, that we're going to have to increase the format to a new bigger sized book06:16
PedersenMJSweet :)06:16
PedersenMJI'm definitely going to be getting the other guides, too.06:16
@rizeni had hoped the other two we're working on would be out this month06:17
@rizenbut we've been so busy with everything, and so short staffed, that they aren't done yet06:17
@rizenbut when all 3 are finished it will be between 1000 and 1200 pages of documentation06:18
SDuensinEach a hundred bucks?06:18
@rizeni don't think people will complain that we don't have enough documentation anymore06:18
@rizen=)06:18
@rizen100 for color06:18
@rizenand 75 for b/w06:18
SDuensinBox set discount?  :-)06:18
PedersenMJIs there where I'm supposed to express outrage that you haven't finished these books on my personal timetable? Or should I just nicely say that I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of them as soon as they come out? :)06:19
@rizenprobably06:19
@rizenjust the cost of printing the color ones is 65 per book06:19
SDuensinOuch.06:19
@rizenand that doesn't count for all the time we put in to writing them06:19
@rizenthat's why we're charging so much06:19
@rizenif we could offer them for 50 a piece we would06:19
SDuensinBelieve me, WebGUI is worth the cash.  I just can't swing it yet.  When I can, I'll be buying everything you guys offer.  :-)06:20
PedersenMJI'm not the only one who feels that way. It's a *sweet* system, it really is.06:20
