General :: Windows 7 - Order In The Slots Of Memory Modules Matter/ MemTest?
Apr 4, 2011In a new PC I had constantly BSoD. I tracked it down to bad memory modules and took them back to the shop.Specifically the RAM was Corsair. Anyway they said they will do test on memory to confirm. They did tests and admitted the RAM was faulty and gave me a replacement. At this point: originally I bought 2 kits of 4G RAM. One of the kits turned out bad. They gave me a replacement, it does not seem to be exactly the same, though. In any case, I became causious and as soon as I got them I put them in the PC and run KUbuntu memtest. It started showing thousands of errors! (Again!). I removed the new kit and run the test again. No errors. I swapped the slots I put the memory modules and also no errors. I can not understand now. Is the new RAM kit bad or not? Does the slots I place the kits matter?

View 1 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Shell Script Has Stopped Working - Why Is "" Appended To Filename And Does It Matter
Jun 8, 2011I am new to Linux, but was put in charge of our company's Amazon presence. My problem is that all of the sudden, a shell script we have been using has stopped working, and returned an odd error that I simply can't decipher. The shell script is pretty simple, and is run on our crontab (however manually running it causes the same error as well). The script name is "sendh.sh" and to run it in Linux is simply typing "sh sendh.sh". Here it is:
[Code]....
Yes, obviously those files are in the directory, I can see them through the "ls" command (or through WinSCP as well). When run one by one, each command works fine, it's just when using this "sendh.sh" shell script then it fails. Does anyone know why "" is appended to the filenames when I try to run it, or what the heck "ambiguous redirect" means?

View 2 Replies View RelatedProgramming :: Standardize A Perl Script So That Can Use It No Matter How Many Input Files
Mar 21, 2010I need write a script that can compare multiple input files and output a file. The basic idea is:1: All my input files are in the same format2: I want to find in-common lines (in-common 1) from some of my input files (e.g., input1, 2 an 3), and find in-common lines (in-common 2) from the rest of my input files (e.g., input 4,5,6,7). And then, compare in-common1 and in-common2 and remove any overlap from in-common 1.3: Output the remaining in-common 1 file after removing any of its overlap with in-common 2I know how to write this script by putting all the filenames in one script and compare them. But the thing is, if I have more input files, such as 100, it might not be that efficient to write all filenames in one script and compare them.
I am wondering if there is any way to do such as:1: put all input filenames in a text file (file1)2: write a script3: Everytime, when I run this script, it will read in file1 directly no matter how many input files I have, give an output.I want this because I will have more and more input files and I don't wanna add multiple lines in the script just for reading the new inputfiles and compare them with the previous files. So, I guess this is something related to making my script a package or standardize it and make it easy to use in the future no matter how many input files I will have.
Red Hat :: Scientific Linux Install DVD Fails To Boot / No Matter What Options Are Passed
Feb 18, 2010I hope I'm posting in the right forum for this (since Scientific Linux is based on RHEL)...I downloaded the Scientific Linux 5.4 "Boron" Install DVD's, and I can't get the DVD to boot. It gets to the point where it tries to initialize SMP (I have a Core 2 Quad Q8200 processor), and it just crashes and reboots my computer. I've tried disabling ACPI, APIC and APM using the noacpi, no apic, and apm=off options, one at a time, and all 3 at once (since the problem seems to be with APIC, because it fails to initialize on all 4 of the processor cores)...does anyone know what I'm doing wrong here, or how I can fix this? I really want to run Scientific Linux, but I can't since it crashes.

General :: Find Directory Older Than X And Mv Directory With Sub Files Command?
Jul 13, 2011I'm quite new to linux but I have configured a simple ftp server and it's working great. I have a FTP-Shared folder with upload and download subfolders. Under upload's and download's I have identical category subfolders like mp3's, movies, software etc. in both. As the guy's upload, I would like to create a line crontab where I can move all the content under /FTP-Shared/upload/mp3/* older than 14 day's to FTP-Shared/downloads/mp3/ recursively (Like in cp command), but the timestamp must be searched on the first directory and not sub files example: /mp3/Club Dance/CD1/Hallo world.mp3This is how far I got:[root@clients ~]# /usr/bin/find /FTP_Shared/upload/Mp3s/ -depth -mindepth 1 -mtime +14 -type d -exec mv -f {} /FTP_Shared/download/Mp3s/ ;This command moves the directory and files, but it is not recursively

So that the file /var/www/mysite/index.php who's user is www-data will appear in the mounted directory as /home/daniel/mysite/index.php and be owned by daniel - and alternatively, if I create a file /home/daniel/mysite/test.php with my own user, it will be created in the original directory under the user www-data Is it possible? If not, what alternatives do I have so I can use an IDE and still make sure all the files belong to the HTTP server's user?
