Krydos

Edited to add this closer to the top of the page. Personally, I would never download some random program like this. I do a lot of research before I install or run any executable on any of my computers. If I really really need to install a dubious looking program I actually set up a sandbox computer to install it and then see if there is any crazy bundled spyware or viruses in it. If anything looks weird at all about it I reformat and reinstall the entire operating system from a saved hard drive image. I guess this paranoia is why I never get viruses, and I'm the person that all of my friends and coworkers call first when their computers start to act wonky. Usually they have all sorts of weird toolbars. Just my opinion.

According to the whois the nameservers are set correctly and the entry was created and last updated May 20th. I can't tell when the addon domain was last edited so it could just be an issue of not waiting long enough. Although, my experience with addon domains is it usually propagates fairly quickly.

Most likely djbob will post in this thread once the installation has been completed or if there is any reason why it cannot be. Just have to wait for djbob to come along. He's usually very quick. Everyone here is just a volunteer and no one gets paid for any of the work they do here. That said everyone is amazingly helpful and very responsive and quick. Just be patient.

Have you compared the permissions on the folders in the explorer between the troublesome account and other functioning accounts? Perhaps the trash folder had its permissions changed and now RoundCube can't access it to see it. So when the account is deleted it can't delete it either.

Even just within five minutes of the time stamp on this post I have seen a few freezes. It's rather bizarre because before the power outage you could tell that sometimes there was server load because everything would slow down a bit, but it was a consistent slowness. If the load was really high each server request would take a few seconds, but it was a normal kind of slowness. Now what I have seen is everything will run really fast and snappy for quite a while. Maybe even hours at a time, and then all of a sudden stevie will have a hiccup or something and I will get 15+ second freezes. Sometimes a little info will trickle through, such as half a page will load, and then it will freeze again right away. After some random amount of time of freezes like that something will snap and everything will load really quick and snappy again. I have no idea what the issue could be because I can't see if the cpu is spiking or the network traffic is capping out or tons of packets start getting lost or what the deal is exactly. I can only try (and probably fail mostly) to describe what I have been seeing on my end. It might be worth it if there is a chance of fixing these issues. Hopefully my input might be useful to someone in diagnosing this issue.

Just wanted to drop a note and say that all of your themes look very professional and very nice. I am always impressed by all of the interesting and very functional looking setups that you give away for free. I have never actually used one myself because I don't do a lot of blogging recently, but if I ever started writing a wordpress site again I would come here to pick out a theme.

Before Johnny was purchased and set up Stevie could run .NET sites. Perhaps you could post a link to the site so we can take a look at the page that is giving the error and the error itself?

Eventually Stevie will definitely be more stable. If you really only plan to use PHP, apache, mysql, and the basic stuff like that it will pay off in the long run to be on Stevie. Right now Stevie is having weird issues because of the power outage and there are still tons of accounts on him that can sometimes slow him down, but as time goes by the account number will continue to drop as people migrate to Johnny who need the services he provides. I am sticking with Stevie because he will be more stable eventually, but the last few days have been rather rough.

Are you looking to create a PDF from data that changes constantly on your website or just a static form that people can print that you just create once? There are tons of tools that can create PDF. Pretty much every decent text editor I have used in the past 10 years has the ability to create PDFs. Two of my favourites are LaTeX and OpenOffice PDF Import. Some more information on how you plan to use it might be able to narrow down your options a bit.

I used to be obsessed with a browser that basically no one has ever heard of called Maxthon. It was one of the first browsers that had really good ad blocking abilities and I programmed the ad blockers myself to block anything that I didn't want to see. I blocked all of the stupid flash games and all that junk on Facebook. I finally kept trying other browsers until Chrome came along, and it's really the speed that won me over. Maxthon started out really fast and powerful, but like all browsers that have existed for too long it got bloated and slow and memory intensive. That's basically the entire story of Firefox. <3 Chrome!

Sorry for getting things off topic. I just saw him get denied wiki access, and then a couple hours later there were like 15 three word posts. I couldn't decide whether to laugh at him or get frustrated by the pointless spam. Perhaps I should have just kept quiet about it. I'm fairly new, and I'm sure it happens every couple months. I dunno. Some people could be really helpful for a couple weeks and constantly post useful stuff and then disappear for a couple months. Average posts wouldn't really be much fairer of a measure as total post counts. There really isn't with the current set up. Everyone is a volunteer anyways so it's silly to assume that anyone should have to read through all of a users posts to make sure they are all worthwhile. Perhaps the pointless spam posts can just be deleted, or does that not decrease the post count? On a forum I used to moderate we had a hidden admin folder called "Deleted" where we would put all the deleted posts rather than actually deleting them so that user's post counts would be retained and if we ever needed to dig up a good quote to remind people how they had broken rules in the past. I was wondering where my post had gotten whisked off to. I guess it's good news that I started a meaningful discussion rather than upsetting everyone though. I think the best option would be if each post had a thumbs up thumbs down for usefulness and that way the spam posts would get thumbed down into oblivion. Probably way more work than it's worth though. Overall I would guess that the 400 limit seems much more than any spammer could ever manage to get away with, but the 25 post seems a lot more within reach.

I'm starting to realize the downside of requiring certain post counts to unlock certain benefits. Perhaps it should be 20 posts of 20 words or more for wiki access, and 400 posts of 20 words or more for a url? Of course some people are just noisy and use too many words to say nothing, and some people cut right to the point with a minimum of words. (I don't think I fall into the latter category unfortunately.)

I have owned my iPhone 3GS for two years now and it is the most amazing phone I have ever even seen. I live in a part of the country where Verizon and Android phones are really thoroughly embedded in society. I keep borrowing everyone's androids and trying them and I just don't get it at all. They are so huge and clunky and the the interface and the apps have mini freezes constantly and tons of other weird issues. They also have all sorts of bizarre features like a stupid little bar that sticks out so you can stand your phone up. I dunno. I just don't get it. They all love them so much though so more power to them. The only feature I think would be cool on my iPhone would be an infrared transmitter. One of my old Hewlett Packard windows mobile phones had it and I got this amazing remote control software where I could control any TV, VCR, satellite/cable box, etc, basically anything with a remote. A lot like those $300 programmable remotes, but all on my phone. Looking forward to see what the features on the new iPhone5 will be. I'm really surprised to see so many people still using WinXP. I thought I was one of the few that would still have a computer running it. I prefer Linux and even Snow Leopard for an operating system, but you can't always get all the software you want to run to work right on those.

Yup.

I used to get the 500 error a lot on my sight too, and I think the consensus was that I was running into the process limit thereby blocking php scripts and cgi and stuff like that from being able to run. Checking email would spawn imapd, uploading new files over and over would spawn ftpd, etc etc etc. In my case I think there was an issue of them never getting killed or going away so eventually my site would only display 500 errors. As far as I know there is no way for us, as users, to monitor our processes. We just see the side effects when our sites stop working. If this is the same issue that you are running into I can assure you that when you stop actively editing and testing your site as much and fall back into more of a regular business automatic mode my site at least got a lot more stable. I have no way of knowing if this is the issue you are having too, but if it is it might be hard to troubleshoot for the admins because after a couple hours of you posting the processes might have ended and everything works perfectly when they check it.

I believe science can explain everything... eventually. Maybe religion does have a tinge of truth to it. Like Maybe 'god' is just some highly evolved alien that was experimenting with RNA/DNA like a kid might experiment with an ant farm, and likewise this god might not really pay much attention to us because how interesting are ants really? Maybe you could watch them for a few minutes, but they basically just do the same things over and over just like humanity. If this theory turns out to be true maybe once we have evolved sufficiently to have a real conversation with god everything will make a lot more sense. Religion and science aren't opposites or enemies like a lot of people make them out to be. We just need to explore our world with both our faith and our intelligence and I believe eventually science and religion can become one. I just think religion is a simpler way of explaining the world. There are so many unknowns out there that people could easily just get too terrified to move and just hide under a rock like rabbit or something. Religion was just a mental crutch for people to feel like there was something out there watching over them, or that everything happens for a purpose, or death isn't the end. Humanity is still very young and childlike and as we mature as a global community our beliefs and knowledge will mature with us. Just my silly opinion.

No. Sometimes I feel like everyone in the world is real and I'm just a figment of everyone else's imagination. Maybe that makes me a ghost? I think I'm going to find a shell to crawl into. Yes. It is my belief that everyone is crazy. There is no such thing as sane, but if everyone is insane that makes everyone normal thereby redefining what it means to be sane. Hm. Further circular thought is required.

I've used MySQL quite a bit and I like it. Perhaps this link might help you?

It doesn't seem to have disappeared yet. I created my account probably about 7 or 8 months ago now so it's probably about time I introduced myself: Hi. I'm Krydos. When I saw the feature list of heliohost and it was all for free I just kept asking, "What is the catch?!" So far the closest thing to a catch is having to set an alarm to log on and create an account at midnight PST, but that wasn't really a big deal. Amazingly quick and helpful support staff too. I'll let you all know if I ever discover the catch.

Hindsight may be 20/20, but this is why I have krydos.heliohost.org and then use parked/addon domains. If I point the nameservers somewhere else I can still access all my sites even if it isn't as pretty as a nice .com url or whatever. I remember when I signed up for the account having the choice of making a url that you can addon to as many domains as you want, or just having a non-heliohost.org type url. I also seem to recall the walk through text strongly recommending the first option for just this reason. Perhaps the admins can add the heliohost type address after the fact? I wouldn't know.

Yeah, I looked at those scripts many times and never even considered that they could look better. I was just impressed with what they could do, not how they looked. I guess some people are just more concerned with functionality than appearance. That said, they look very nice now that they have been spruced up. Great job jje!

This is due to a problem with mono. Please see the topic in escalated requests. I'm pretty sure Geoff is referring to http://www.helionet.org/index/index.php?s=...ost&p=63726

You can use: ntpdate -u <ntp_server_you_want_to_update_from> The package can update times automatically as a service and you can have johnny and stevie sync time from each other at a higher frequency, etc. ntp.org
