I want to write a shell script which will simultaneously collect OS user information and write in an individual text files.Can anyone tell me the syntax of the script.N.B. The user name will be mentioned in an array within the shell script.
I want to write a small program that shows some stockquotes and indexes etc on the desktop. Does anyone know how to get the quotes from google, yahoo etc? Do I rip it from the webpages or is there some other way?
i am working on this thread: [URL] if it is better to open a file every time i need to write to it or should i keep a file open the whole time and when i am done with the script, close it and sendmail it out?
Or i just thought of this: i could keep concatenating to a string and just sendmail when done.
I'd like to use a perl script to update a fields in mysql database when pianobar (command line pandora radio player) starts a new song. Pianobar has the ability to run a script based on events, I'd like to take advantage of and use perl toparse the artist,song,album and update the corresponding fields. Then later retrieve them and display them with php/html. I am by no means proficient with perl. I started to use bash, but it looks like perl will be much more efficient and and less time consuming.
and I get this error simply running the program from the command line: DBD::mysql::st execute failed: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1 at ./submit.cgi line 24.
is this the right syntax to use, both, for this line:
my (@param) = $cgi->param("firstname","lastname","type") ;
as well as this one:
$sth=$dbh->prepare ("SELECT firstname,lastname,type FROM dts WHERE firstname LIKE $param[0] AND lastname LIKE $param[1] and type LIKE $param[2]" );
or should there be quotes around the $param[0] or something? (also is it $param[0] or $param(0)?)
I am trying to write a perl script which will give an interactive session to a user to execute command on the server. I have written a small script to do this :
Code: !/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use Net::SSH::Perl; my $host = '192.168.1.1'; my $username = 'user'; my $login_passwd = 'test123';
Im trying to write a program that interacts with MySql in C . Im using slackware 13.1 64 bit and Ive installed MySql , getting help from this page : [URL] .
This is the program I have ( I know they arent any vars here , i just thought it wasnt necessary )
This program is from the MySql website ( a tutorial they have up there ). When I run this program I get hundreds of lines of errors , nothing related to my program , but the headers, indicating that there are syntax errors and all kinds of other problems in them.

I want to connect to MySQL Database installed on RHEL 5 using perl v 5.8.8.The available DBD perl drivers installed on my machine are:DBM, ExampleP, File, Pg, Proxy, Sponge..I downloaded DBD-mysql-2.1012 and tried installing DBD again but got the following error:Can't exec "mysql_config": No such file or directory at Makefile.PL line 167.readline() on closed filehandle PIPE at Makefile.PL line 169.On searching I found that I need to install libz-devel prior to installing driver for MySQL for Perl.
I have spent over half of the day, literally, trying to get my server to parse perl and be able to use perl scripts to interact with my SQL server. Has anyone been able to get it to work? Only looking for answers to Slackware. There are a lot of resources for FC and Ubuntu, but that does me no good. I checked the Slackbuilds for their builds, and built the libdbi and libdbi-drivers package, but still cannot get it to communicate.
I have a permission to use several CentOS5 computers that are connected to a server where all shared programs sit. Accordingly, all Perl users for example have an identical path to Perl (e.g. /export/user/bin). The administrator suggested I'll install all the programs I need (specifically Perl and Mysql) in my personal space, and then add them to the path before the already installed ones. Accordingly, I could add/change modules without "sudo" privileges, and without changing the global setting.
How to write a perl script to ping multiple server and if any server is down then we manually bring up the server within 3hours wehn it goes down and will display a message" server is up within 3hours" and if we are unable to bring the server up manually within 3 hours then we will display a message " unable to bring the server alive". Need perl script to display the message.
As I mentioned on another thread, I have 2 Ubuntus - Jaunty and Meerkat - as separate drives on my secondary IDE channel. I am removing Jaunty. Meerkat blows it away. And is certainly my preferred OS. However I am looking for a replacement for Jaunty that is more flexible in certain key areas than Ubuntu appears to be.I dont want to be restricted to Debian versions of things like Perl, MySQL, PHP and others. I can run LAMPP, but I would prefer to compile and have the versions of my choice as part of a main test system (apart from Meerkat that is).
I have had enough nightmares in Jaunty with things getting broken and spiralling out of control. I want a distro that doesnt rely on the GUI and its attendant utilities, but can run them when called. Meerkat is stable and has resisted me breaking it so far, but I do not want to push my luck. I have too much time invested in it. I intend to use Meerkat as my primary system on the machine, but want an alternative to *PLAY* with.
I have been tearing my hair out with this. As part of a backend perl script i am holding the Epoch time as session data using apache session and mysql so i can delete sessions after an expiry period. When I retrieve the time it is about three months old even when i only just set it. The code example below best describes the problem:
i'm learning C now, later C++. using DJGPP isn't so nice on MS-DOS yet, no LFNs etc. and other limitations that is only one terminal, no multitasking etc.is there a small IDE for linux console? (i'm using a celeron 333 atm). for C it would be sufficient i guess?what i would need is a wide documentation, help on .h files, includes etc.on MS-DOS i use RHIDE. later on i might use eclipse or code::blocks. read another thread about c/c++ IDE.
Can any one point out links to some small projects w.r.t C++ ? Now when I say small projects. It doesn't mean building a calculator or matrix multiplication programs, nor does it mean building games, nor does it mean dealing with databases,
What I actually want is to use the advanced features of C++ like: i.Templates ii. Nested friends iii.Virtual functions iv. Operator overloading (not merely '+', '-') but '[', '<<' also
I have this problem.I need to do this:I got a small version of Linux installed in some small devices. These devices come from the provider with this small version of Linux installed.This devices should send data to some other machine in the internet. I have tested wput for this purpose with a PC which has an Ubuntu version 10 and it works fine. However, when I try wput in the small device, I get an error. It seems that the wput might need some libraries to work with the small version of Linux installed in the small device.The fact of using wput or not is optional. I just need being able to send files through ftp with this small version of Linux.The thing is that to be able to run wput in this small version of Linux, it seems that many of the needed libraries were missing. So what I did was just install all the needed libraries. But still the wput program fails in its first line.
I've set the following as my prompt:... can't post the string due to the 15 post rule. how helpful....
Everything looks fine initially. 1- It sets the username and host in back on green text. 2- It then changes to an off-white an prints the command number for the terminal. 3- Next, it prints the working directory. 4- Finally is prints a ">" character and a space. it looks like this (hostname/un edited & image enlarged slightly to make it easier to read.)
The problem occurs when I try to "up arrow" to reuse and/or edit a prior command. It prints the prior command fine, but if I arrow over to edit the command sometimes the first character can not be deleted from displaying
I'd love to post 2 screen-shots I took to show the problem but.. 15 posts?
I am would like to learn how to keep my system clean of unneeded and unwanted file clutter as I am trying to get the most out of my older home built pc. I am running fatdog64 puppy linux off of a usb stick right now, but I would like to have a small standards based setup on my hard drive to use as a base to build a custom kernel for my pc. I sure miss my old GEM desktop
I have a few small still images of around 300 bytes each that I created under Windows many years ago, I'd like to:
1) change the colour of some pixels on each and 2) make them the exact same size but I do not want to learn Gimp to do this since I have no other use for it.
Could someone show me the sequences of commands in Gimp GUI that will do the job?
