Symfony: XSL module to install in Ubuntu

admin — Mon, 10 May 2010 20:22:58 +0000

Following the tutorial Simfony (known PHP Framework) to the preliminary pre-requisite, reflected the lack of XSL module under Apache and PHP. Specifically, the message I found was:

[[WARNING]] XSL module is installed: FAILED
*** Install the XSL module (recommended for Propel) ***

The workaround is to install apt-get the missing modules as follows:

sudo apt-get install libapache2-modxslt php5-xsl

then restart the instance of Apache2

sudo / etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Restarting the configuration check the error message should be gone.

Today we had the need to “burn” (of course the correct term is “load”) an ISO image on a bootable USB stick. The problem was how to transfer a previously ISO image on a USB key and make it bootable. We found this very interesting project on sourceforge, named UNetbootin.

This small program in Windows version ( installation is not required) and Linux too, allow to create a bootable stick with an single easy step.

Just installing NRPE client for Nagios into Suse Linux Enterprise 10.
After ./configure i get this error “configure: error: Cannot find ssl headers”

You can solve installing openssl-devel with Yast or with ” yast2 -i openssl-devel”

If you need to watch how many active network connections are running on your machine, and what processes using it, simply run from root (or under Sudo)

watch netstat -naop

where:

-n: show ip address
-a: show only active connections
-o: show the ports connected
-P: pid and name of processes
