Linux Solutions

I have a C# program that runs perfectly under Windows 10. It uses Connected Services so that I can add in additional Class and Method functions to connect to Ultimate Software's HR system and pull our employee information from. What I would like to do is run this application under Linux CentOS. I installed Mono for Linux on both CentOS 6 and CentOS 7; and verified 100% that it can and does run compiled Visual Studio C# programs under Linux. No problem.

However, when I run the EXE program under Linux Mono, it does not connect to the external website defined in Connected Services.

Here is the line it is failing on.

loginClient = new LoginServiceClient("WSHttpBinding_ILoginService");

Open in new window

And the error I get back, is (of course), a NullReferenceException as the defined object of 'loginClient' never gets instantiated.

System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Open in new window

Has anyone ever successfully taken an EXE file for Windows using Connected Services and run it under Linux Mono?

Thank you,
Jeff

We are on the floor of a convention and trying to connect our linux machine to our Android hot spot. There are too many WiFi hotspots and we cannot find the one from our phone.

QUESTION
On our Linux machine, how to find the hotspot that is being generated by our Android phone? Is there a way to search for the specific hotspot name? Is there a way to turn off the other 100 or more hotspots that are filling up the queue?

I need to copy a file from one Ubuntu server to another.

They are two servers in the same AWS VPC and are in the same Public Subnet. They are both running Ubuntu (Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS and Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS, respectively).

I've opened up the Security Group for BOTH Server using Port 22. I also confirmed that openSSH is running by using this command "ps -A | grep sshd" and seeing process ID's.

I created a Text file for testing.

Here's the command I used to copy between servers:

scp ubuntu@**.*.**.***:/usr/local/thomtesttext.txt ubuntu@**.*.**.***:/usr/local/testtext.txt

Open in new window

This is the error I'm seeing:

ssh: connect to host **.*.**.*** port 22: Connection timed out

Open in new window

What am I doing wrong? How can I get an AWS Ubuntu Server to copy files between them?

Thanks for your help!

Have 2 ubuntu installations on Oracle VM. They are in the same version. I ran the same python script against its own ubuntu in the exactly same way. Ran well on one, but got the error on the other one below:
"ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'x'".
I knew the one without error was installed more packages, but I did not remember which more packages were installed. Under this condition, how to troubleshoot this issue? Can any gurus shed some light to it? Thanks a lot.
Background:
ubuntu 18.04 on VirtualBox V5.2.22 in Windows 7 (2 Ubuntus installed on the same box).

This is using SuSE Enterprise Server 11 with SP4. We are intend to update the OS Kernel to the latest version. Please see the current version as follows,

#uname -v
MP Fri Jul 15 14:30:41 UTC 2016 (eb2ba81)

#uname -r
3.0.101-80-default

The latest os kernel version is, 3.0.101-108.1. Shall we manually downloading these latest kernel rpm and then run "rpm -Uvh" to update it? or using zypper?

I heard that is best to "install" this latest version, and then choose to booting up the system with this latest version while kept those older vesion. Yes, the second intention is, keep the older version, so as we can roll back to use the older version if this latest version causes problem.

By the way, how to update the os kernel, and then do the roll back if needed?

Thanks in advance.

compile PHP gd.so module with WebP support

Hello, I'm in need of some assistance to compile PHP gd.so module with WebP support on my server.

I started following the instruction provided here:

https://talk.plesk.com/resources/how-to-compile-php-gd-so-module-with-webp-support.4/

The original instructions refer to PHP version 7.1.11 however, I changed mine to 7.2.13 which is the current version on my Plesk Server.

This is the result of the first 2 commands so far, and I had to stop because I saw the packages required were not available. I didn't want to continue because I don't want to break my current PHP version, but I need PHP gd.so module with WebP support on my server.

Could somebody please take a look and give me so guidance? Should I continue?

yum install make gcc plesk-php72-devel libjpeg-turbo-devel libpng-devel libXpm-devel freetype-devel libwebp-devel

wget http://be2.php.net/get/php-7.2.13.tar.gz/from/this/mirror

I have a linux system that I use which is regularly getting filled by by these /var/tmp/sos directories.
They seem to be getting created every week and taking 10s of gigs of space. Is this a normal part of
linux operation? It's causing the disk to become critically full too often. Is there a way to automatically
delete the old sos directories?

Also - do you know if the directories systemd-private-* need to be kept and what generates them?

Backup ubuntu 18.04 server

I need to backup a Ubuntu 18.04 server. I use Storage Craft for all backups but they do not have anything that can backup that version of Linux. I need to find a product that can backup that server.

I am not a Linux tech so I would prefer something where I can install the backup agent on Linux and manage it from a Windows server. I also want it to backup the entire image of the server so I can restore it if necessary.

Can someone recommend a good product for that. Preferable one that is not expensive

Learn Ruby Fundamentals

This course will introduce you to Ruby, as well as teach you about classes, methods, variables, data structures, loops, enumerable methods, and finishing touches.

I am running Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS in Amazon Web Services with an Elastic IP and an inbound connection for my Static IP.

I need to simply copy files from Ubuntu (Ubuntu 14.04.5) to my local mac (running OS 10.14.2) and then copy them back, both using a Terminal window and SSH.

I've tried scp, but can't seem to get the command correct as the error I'm getting is:

"ssh: connect to host **.*.**.*.** port 22: Connection timed out" (This IP is the Elastic IP).

What am I doing wrong? Help! Thanks in advance. :-)

//Restart application server
		router.get("/restartAppService").handler(ctx -> {
			/* Build command: sudo service AooService stop */
			  final ArrayList<String> command = new ArrayList<String>();
			  command.add("sudo service TutisService restart");
			  System.out.println("CMD ----"+command.toString());
			  final ProcessBuilder builder = new ProcessBuilder(command);
			  	try {
			  		builder.start();
				} catch (IOException e) {
					System.out.println("EXCEPTION WHILE RESTARTING SERVICE----"+e.getMessage());
					e.printStackTrace();
				}
			  //System.exit(0);

I'm looking to use apt-get for Ubuntu and yum for Centos to do the following as root:

1) Ubuntu: apt-get update ; apt-get -d dist-upgrade
to just download the update items for later install

2) How do I install the previously downloaded files at a different time? I was thinking apt-get -f install but can't tell if t will get all the updates. - my 2 Ubuntu systems are both up to date so I can't test this yet

3) yum for CentOS doesn't seem to have a download only option. This part of the question is not as critical.

Thanks in advance
