started in the morning, faced problems in the afternoon, reached internet, problems gone by evening

if you are planning any of the above thingies, here are some links :

try these, if mantis mail doesnt work
http://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=8369

for apache and SVN,
BEFORE YOU START, read the Subversion Documentation… saves a lot of time
check your apache version and make sure you have valid svn and authz-svn modules for your version of Apache.
SVN win32 binaries for apache2.2 can be found here

with these modules, and documented steps, all should work well

that’s about it for now, these two links…
i’m just glad to break the blog silence with a non-nagging and self-complaining post [:)]

adios

DrupalCamp : I am Camping

I’m excited towards tomorrow’s DrupalCamp. This will be third event for me of such type. Previously, PHPCamp and Barcamp pune added huge chunks to my overall knowledge .

I’ve heard about Drupal and have tried to install and play with it a couple of times before today. Somehow, I wasn’t able to get too far with those attempts of mine. I am looking forward for tomorrow to be an enlightening day !!

Right now, however, I’m trying to imagine how it’d feel from a student’s perspective if you are sitting on class benches, listening to a teacher and suddenly his cellphone ringtone starts playing Mario Bros theme . or when your baltimora-tarzan boy ringtone goes off in the middle of a session, and your teacher says “actually, that’s a nice song”

Saturday, Nov. 29, filled with young, enthusiastic minds, 7th floor of SICSR, Model Colony was “Live” indeed. Gathered on the occasion of BarCampPune 5, sharing the free and open knowledge amongst the interested peers and I indeed was happy to be one of them …

“Security” is always a major topic of discussions in camps like these (based on the 2 I attended so far ). It’s never enough to stress the importance of “Security” in whatever that relates to IT. May it be the Server side of a web application, client side JavaScripts or Wireless Networks. Problems exist around every step, some of them, harmful beyond imagination… However, dim lights over the horizon are getting brighter. Slowly, yet, definitely security awareness has started growing in the community. Many heads are coming together and trying to focus people’s attention towards these serious issues.

Rohit Srivastwa presented a very interesting session on Wireless Security. He mentioned clubHack’s recent wardriving venture conducted with Pune Police and stated the “Present situation of Wireless Security in Pune“. “Security mechanisms chat can be configured with most modern wireless routers are strong enough even to keep off ’strangers’ from using your internet” he stated while illustrating various security options available with modern devices and their comparative strength. Further interesting part from the session were the risks involved while connecting to unprotected wireless networks just to get “Free Internet Access”…

in “Getting started with PHP Frameworks” few basics about PHP Frameworks were discussed. It seemed like a whole lot of JAVA community was interested in this particular session. Session pointed out four major PHP frameworks : Zend Framework, CodeIgniter, CakePHP and Synergy. The session however, did not compare these frameworks nor did it emphasized on one particular. Amit Singh simply showed what one should consider while choosing a framework and how can one get acquainted with the framework of choice.

Just before lunch, Nulls introduced themselves to the community. Null is a “Security” oriented community aimed to define security for netizens and to explore the various perspectives to “security”. make your browser fetch null.co.in to know more or to join the Yahoo! group.

In post-lunch session, Rohan Dighe, Founder CEO of Social Web Factory delivered a great talk on Google Analytics. To my surprise, this was not about what Google Analytics is but was more about how can one use Google Analytics in AJAX applications to track even the non-pageview user interactions. I’ve been using Google Analytics for almost a year now and I did not know at all that I can trigger google analytics code to get necessary stats logged. It was also nice to hear Anthony’s view on which interactions to log on Google Analytics and which to let go.

There were other non IT topics on the agenda as well. Pune Traffic, Knowledge Representation in Sanskrit etc… I however had to leave early and could not attend further fun things like the . To summarize, it was a Saturday Well Spent . Looking forward for another of such interesting Saturday soon …

Yes, the Blog Title can do this to you… I’ve been it’s victim several times now and haven’t quite found a solution to get this bug out of the system. Most of the time when I find myself in a good mood for blogging, it’s the Title which stops the flow. I’ve tried a few times to put the post before the title, but somehow i ended up saving those in drafts. Those drafts lateron died in the darft box and got deleted eventually. I am uncertain if there are any more bloggers out there who face the same crisis, but as for me, this definitely needs some attention.

When searched google for “Cannot think of a Title“, we do get a few results which actually point to a title which says “Cannot think of a title”
