What service are you using?

I will publish my configurations in case they are helpfull to some one.

guda@guda-desktop:~/system3/config$ cat seesaw.yml
---
restart_cmd: sudo kill -HUP `cat /usr/local/nginx/logs/nginx.pid`
config_symlink: http_cluster/cluster.conf
mongrel_config_path: /home/mongrel/system3/current/config/mongrel_cluster.yml
config_path: /home/mongrel/system3/current/config
config_files:
  all: cluster_all.conf
  1: cluster_1.conf
  2: cluster_2.conf
symlink_cmd: ln -sf

here is where my nginx conf link points

guda@guda-desktop:~/system3/config/http_cluster$ ls -l
total 16
-rw-r--r-- 1 guda guda 152 2008-11-07 17:17 cluster_1.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 guda guda 152 2008-11-07 17:17 cluster_2.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 guda guda 277 2008-11-07 17:17 cluster_all.conf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 guda guda  66 2008-11-08 01:30 cluster.conf -> /home/mongrel/system3/current/config/http_cluster/cluster_all.conf

and in deploy.rb I have this task rewritten.

set :seesaw_conf, "#{current_path}/config/seesaw.yml"
namespace :deploy do
  desc <<-DESC
  Restart the Mongrel processes on the app server using seesaw
  DESC
  task :restart, :roles => :app do
    run <<-CMD
      cd #{current_path} ; #{mongrel_rails} seesaw::bounce -C #{seesaw_conf}
    CMD
#    send(run_method, "cd #{current_path}; #{mongrel_rails} seesaw::bounce -C #{seesaw_conf}")
  end
end

I am not sure that this is the perfect way of configurating the seesaw. I think that I have some mistakes in the path configurations, and because of that I have to patch the capistrano restart task.

Here it is.

How to select all documents which have id field:

id:[* TO *]

WRONG! It is very stupid to do this.
better way is to use
_val_:id
This way you say just: Give me the values of the id field

check the following to links for the functions syntax
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/FunctionQuery#head-b95a68b4fb63ccddb65365418fe2094ac211f932

And guess what. if you want to find the last updated record just sort the _val_:fetched desc it works!

I don’t know yet how to select an empty field but I hope to learn soon.

Ако искате да вашите страници да се обикалят от паяци и да не забиват е добре да помислите ако използвате различни символи от нормалните за енкодинга ви (уф. нетрябваше да става сложно) да ги кодирате като ентитита.

Ето един пример:

•Тяло с либела за нивелиране на везната

Страхотно. само че тази гениална точка •си има знак нещо от рода на â

ако напишете в гоогле html entities list ще намерите доста.

Ползите са невероятни и за двете страни,

• вашите страници ще бъдат обходени от много паяци, (дори и от моя)
• паяците няма да пропускат страницата ви

http://www.hokstad.com/5-simple-ways-to-troubleshoot-using-strace.html

Find out which config files a program reads on startup

strace php 2>&1 | grep php.ini

Why does this program not open my file?

strace -e open,access 2>&1 | grep your-filename

What is that process doing RIGHT NOW?

strace -p 15427

What is taking time?

strace -c -p 11084

You can also run this "start to finish", here with "ls":
race -c >/dev/null ls

Why the **** can’t I connect to that server?

strace -e poll,select,connect,recvfrom,sendto nc www.news.com 80

The reason I am posting this link is that sometimes I really need and want to connect to my desktop machine in this way but I cant find good software. So I decide that my blog is the perfect place to note this.

В събота изтрих всички стоки от сайта, тъй като имах грешка в паяка и стоките нарастваха без да намаляват, което разбира се беше чудесно за рекламата на сайта хм…след колко ли време ще имаме 500к стоки, но все пак си беше чисто и просто лъжа и трябваше да го оправим.

Всичките над 500 магазина бяха обиколени за по-малко от 2 дена с помоща на 4 сървъра, които здраво пропушиха от сваляне на страници.

Сред най-новите ни звезди от магазини този път е http://shoes-bg.com/ ако пишете интернет паяк ви препоръчвам да тествате паяка си в/у този сайт. Приятен дизайн и предизвикателна навигация.

Друга звезда (и то ярка) бяха “приятелите” ни от 911 бг, които упорито отказват да разрешат на паяците ни да ги индексират, но пък за сметка на това следят ревностно counter-а на www.cenite.com и гледат са с по едно 20 хиляди отгоре. С интерес ще наблюдавам дали ще се засрамят и ще си оправят брояча на стоките след допуснатата от нас грешка.

В момента паяка е отново безгрешен и значително по-бърз. Търсенето в около 50 магазина е подобрено.

One of the drawbacks is the speeds of commits.

The second one is that my repository starts to break often. here is how I repair it when this happends:

svnadmin repair /var/lib/subversion/public/payak

then don’t forget to change the rights
