debateoneworld rolls on
Spent a bunch of time touring Mambo and figuring out what it does and what it doesn’t.
Installed WordPress 2 in debate web space. Fixed a bit of "broken" code that affects file uploads in PHP "Safe" mode (added a touch command in admin-functions.php line 752. Waiting for feedback from Tuna..
broken parrot calendar
The interface between our UVM web pages (and iPods) and Oracle Calendar broke witgh the move to parrot. Apparently a known problem with ugly workaround. Toook frank and I a couple of days to track it down and find a (temporary) solution. See
- Example of the calendar script
- The particular error condition — CAPI_STAT_API_POOL_NOTINITIALIZED — is not described in my Capi reference manual (release 2.5 August 2002 part no B10097-1). It is here in the Oracle® Calendar Application Developer’s Guide Release 2 (9.0.4) Part No. B10893-01
- Changing code to the new 9.0.4 specifications generates a different error. Look here for a description and a fix, of sorts
The latest word from the Oracle SR (which originally told me that they didn’t support the SDK) is that this is a known issue and it is corrected in the 10.1.2.1 version.
Pharos printing in Library
Trying to get Mac-to-Pharos-print-server printing set up in Library. Here’s what Kor told me:
Reference Printer – Lexmark T634
bw_cash_queue
bw_catscratch_queue
Library Cyber Cafe Black and White – Canon iR6570
CafeBWCash_queue
CafeBWCatscratch_queue
Library Cyber Cafe Color Printer – Canon iR C2620
color_cash_queue
color_catscratch_queue
CIT – Apple LaserWriter 16/600
CIT_queue
Nursing – HP Laserjet 4000
sonlab_queue
Well, after rooting out the Canon and LexMark printer drivers and several failed attempts I got something set up, but so far only error messages appear in the output. Back to the drawing board.
Landscape Change Project: meeting
Weekly meeting with guest to evaluate new site changes
broken parrot
migrated scripts.uvm.edu alias from warthog to parrot. problems thus far:
- somebody forgot to move FormMail.pl from warthog to parrot. Fixed
- I edited the SOIT test generator soit_test.pl script for parrot, but apparently skipped the soit_answers.pl script. Fixed. And updated documentation, since Leonord Perry said they were so great.
- The CT_Cal.pl script was producing unsightly calendars, needed to edit CT_Cal_functions.pl and update old July 14, 1995 code to account for different output from unix cal application
missing and broke media
Ran around in circles with others tracking down broken/missing media files in somebody’s online Jazz course. I think we found a solution. More here.
