Rip the mp3 from a video

by Dark_Mafia on Sep.16, 2011, under Linux Related

if you dont have ffmpeg installed yet install it by putting
# yum install ffmpeg or # apt-get install ffmpeg
if it says ffmpeg is not found you should add fusion repos
ffmpeg -i {video} -ac 1 {output}.mp3

Put 2 websites in the same server and configure the document roots without a Cpanel

by Dark_Mafia on Apr.27, 2011, under Ah ? :S

As you may all know Cpanel is very important tool when it comes to web hosting. but its very expensive as well, specially if you have a dedicated server so now im gonna show you how to add another domain to the same server and run two different sites.
its a simple thingy, you all know the “httpd.conf” file right?? if not, its located in “/etc/http/conf/” if ur in a windows it must b smewhre in config folder.
k found it?? k good now add the following lines to section 2(‘Main’ server configuration) or end of the file will work too


NameVirtualHost *

ServerName {domain1}
DocumentRoot /var/www/html2


ServerName {domain2}
DocumentRoot /var/www/html


Order Deny,Allow
Allow from all
AllowOverride All

and restart important!
sudo /etc/init.d/httpd restart

update mysql table column with boolean toggle

by Dark_Mafia on Apr.24, 2011, under Ah ? :S

I recently came across a situation where i had a column in a boolean type and i have to set it 0 if its 1 and 1 if its already 0
so instead of running two queries where 1st one selects the value and running it through a if and determining the value i found this in a stackoverflow answers . pretty impressive huh??not to say this saves awful lot of performance too

update tab set `delete`=NOT `delete`

Joomla pdf doesnt work “TCPDF error: Can’t open image file: “

by Dark_Mafia on Apr.13, 2011, under joomla

in the default joomla installation you might have come across situation like this when you click on print pdf icon

TCPDF error: Can’t open image file: images/schools/MACS/images/for%20web.png

Reason:

basically there are 2 situations which this may occor

1.Is the article has a fake image(where the image is really not found in filesystem

2.if the file names doesnt match

in this specific case the error is in the file name as u may knw joomla encodes all the url’s in the articles so when the tcpdf prints the article if searches the filesystem for the specific file name in this case ‘for%20web.png’ but the actual filename is ‘for web.png’ . oh lala now u can see right? so i just add a urldecode function before it phase the image

then for the error i mentioned in 1. i just check whether that image exists if not, IGNORE haha simple right?

ok cut to the chase just download this file and replace it {joomla}/libraries/tcpdf/tcpdf.php (BTW rename the file)

heres a simple “diff tcpdf-old.php tcpdf.php”

As a Joomla Developer

by Dark_Mafia on Apr.13, 2011, under joomla

In my life as a intern i’v been working on a joomla project. technically its 5 sites which combines but runs on 5 different databases.anyway in my experience i’v been working on pretty serious developments with joomla framework. most of them are custom components going beyond the capabilities of joomla framework.

so here on i will be putting up errors which i found with 1.5 version of the joomla framework(its old but still its pretty solid compaired to 1.6) some of you may b familier with thease errors but still with no solution. no worries i’m here with some answers. BTW if you find any errors pls do post them up to me

Thanks c ya ltr.
