iF.SVNAdmin 1.6.1 released – CRITICAL

I have just released the 1.6.1 as a critical bug fix release. Everyone who used 1.6.0 should upgrade to this version, otherwise your Subversion authorization file may get damaged, if you unassign a user from an Access-Path.

Download here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ifsvnadmin/files/

PHP 5.4 Released

Finally PHP 5.4 has been released!
It contains the bug fix for the actually missing feature to receive more than 1000 items from LDAP server. I will build in the new paged LDAP search results support to iF.SVNAdmin as soon as possible and provide it as new release.

Update: The current trunk of iF.SVNAdmin source supports more than 1000 users now (with PHP 5.4)!

SocialEngine Ning Import

A few weeks ago i created a small Java program which makes it possible to merge multiple Ning-Portals into one Social-Engine Community site by merging the backup files of all Ning-Portals into one (because Social-Engine can only import one Ning-Portal).

Well… today i tried to import a backup with about 15.000 members (including profile information and profile pictures) and got a “Memory Exceeded” error. Ok, until here no problem. Changing the “memory_limit” in php.ini file should fix the problem…

it doesn’t…

Well… very long story and a lot of terrifying emotions later i found out that there is not call to ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ’128M’), but in the “<SE_ROOT>/install/” directory is a .htaccess file with the following block:

<IfModule mod_php5.c>
php_value   post_max_size         100M
php_value   upload_max_filesize   100M
php_value   max_input_time        600
php_value   max_execution_time    600
php_value   memory_limit          128M
</IfModule>

Commenting out (or increase) the “php_value memory_limit XXX” row finally fixed the problem and i was able to import the huge amount of data.

At least, I really have no idea why the SE team decided to set those values for the Import-Tools (Admin-Only) but nowhere else for the public accessible pages.

iF.SVNAdmin sources on GitHub

I decided to host the sources of iF.SVNAdmin on GitHub. It provides a better way for contributions and user commits (forks and pull-requests).

I made a lot of changes since the last release, which are actually not 100% compatible. What means that you should prefer a clean install, but copy the “config/config.ini” and “config/userroleassignments.ini” files.

Note: It’s not an official release of a new version.

The biggest change is the deletion of the custom Template Engine and a new way to handle Exceptions. I also made a few bug fixes to the LDAP interface, but still have encoding problems when using LDAPv2-Protocol (Protocol version 3 works great with AD!).

Project on GitHub:
https://github.com/mfreiholz/iF.SVNAdmin

Thanks again for all patches i recieved.

Minecraft – Fuji Television

Hey everyone!

As this is my first post on this blog I’ll introduce myself shortly.
I’m Chris, I’m a member of the insaneFactory group and I sometimes build way too large objects and buildings in Minecraft when I’m bored.

There… Short enough for my taste.

I’m going to start this post off with some pictures of my latest Minecraft project which I just finished (at least in MY mind). It’s the Fuji Television Headquarters in Tokyo (Japan) which is located in the North-Western part of Tokyo Bay. But enough beating around the bush, here are the pictures:

And since I’m sure that hardly anyone of you has ever seen the actual building:

I know it does not look EXACTLY like the original, but I was just too lazy to insert the 3-4 missing elevators. As far as time is concerned; I think I spent roughly 10 hours on it. I built the whole thing pre-1.9 so I did not use the new creative mode and to build the actual building I did not use World Edit either (just flattened the surroundings to get a good screenshot).

Having completed the building I’m actually at a loss of ideas what to do next. It will, however, definitely be something coming from Japan. If YOU have any creative comments or ideas I should build just leave a comment.

Well, that’s all I got. Read you all next post!

Chris

insaneSums 1.1 Released

So, here it is. The monumental update to 1.1. I present to you… almost nothing different.

It’s a cosmetic update from 1.0. The window now has a menu and status bar. The highlighting is now in the comparison input field. No new functionality has been introduced.

The new version can be downloaded from the insaneSums page.

File Transfer

In the same spirit as the recently released XKCD comic, we are currently working on a small Qt application for the quick transfer of files across networks:

Planned features:

  • Keep usage of screen real-estate low
  • Ease of use (Drag’n'Drop)
  • Easy setup (use UPnP to forward ports automatically)

This project shouldn’t keep us occupied for long… hopefully.
