• x.gif in Apache logs

  - by T. Stone

  I manage a Django site where we host the media on a subdomain. There shouldn't be any requests for media to the main domain. However I keep seeing these requests for "x.gif" showing up in the access logs on the domain that's handled by WSGI (not the media domain). Can anyone explain what this is? X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:04:00 -1000] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 3724 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:04:10 -1000] "GET /x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:04:10 -1000] "GET /x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:04:10 -1000] "GET /x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:04:10 -1000] "GET /x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:04:51 -1000] "GET /x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:04:52 -1000] "GET /x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:04:52 -1000] "GET /x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:04:52 -1000] "GET /x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:04:56 -1000] "GET /contact/ HTTP/1.1" 200 7196 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:04:58 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:04:58 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:00 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:00 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:00 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:00 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:01 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:01 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:01 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:01 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:02 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:02 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:02 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:02 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:03 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:03 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:03 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:04 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:04 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:04 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:04 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:05 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:05 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:05 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:05 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:06 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:06 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:06 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653 X.X.X.X - - [08/Mar/2010:10:05:06 -1000] "GET /contact/x.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 2653

• fabric deploy problem

• How can I unify my email, calendar and tasks (2 exchange accounts + 1 gmail)

  - by Assaf Stone

  This is my situation: I work as a consultant, and thus work out of multiple computers: my work-laptop a desktop at my primary client my desktop at home an android smartphone an android tablet Likewise, I have multiple accounts: A Microsoft Exchange (2010 AFAIK) account A Microsoft Exchange (2007 AFAIK) account A gmail account The most important thing I need is the ability to have events in one calendar affect the free / busy status of all other accounts (so that if I am busy on Monday 9am with an event from my employer's account, it will show that time as busy in my client's account, and in the gmail account. Second thing I need is a unified view of all of my accounts' info: Appointments, email, tasks, and contacts (in that order of importance). I've already tried outlook synchronization tools such as gSyncit, to sync both exchange accounts with gmail, but this creates a mess when updating appointments (deleted appointments sometimes return, timestamps revert). Is there perhaps some way to at least synchronize the free/busy state in a way that all of my calendar apps / accounts will look there to see if I can be invited? Just solving that would be well worth my while. Thanks, Assaf

• What exactly is an invalid HTTP_HOST header

  - by rolling stone

  I've implemented Django's relatively new allowed hosts setting, which is meant to prevent attackers from submitting requests with a fake HTTP Host header. Since adding that setting, I now get anywhere from 20-100 emails a day notifying me of invalid HTTP_HOST headers. I've copied in an example of a typical error message below. I'm hosting my site on EC2, and am relatively new to setting up/maintaining a server, so my question is what exactly is happening here, and what is the best way to manage these invalid and I assume malicious requests? [Django] ERROR: Invalid HTTP_HOST header: 'www.launchastartup.com'.You may need to add u'www.launchastartup.com' to ALLOWED_HOSTS.

• Hierarchy based aggregation

  - by Ganapathy Subramaniam

  I have a hierarchy table in SQL Server 2005 which contains employees - managers - department - location - state. Sample table for hierarchy table: ID Name ParentID Type 1 PA NULL 0 (group) 2 Pittsburgh 1 1 (subgroup) 3 Accounts 2 1 4 Alex 3 2 (employee) 5 Robin 3 2 6 HR 2 1 7 Robert 6 2 Second one is fact table which contains employee salary details ID and Salary. Sample data for fact table: ID Salary 4 6000 5 5000 7 4000 Is there any good to way to display the hierarchy from hierarchy table with aggregated sum of salary based on employees. Expected result is like Name Salary PA 15000 (Pittsburgh + others(if any)) Pittusburgh 15000 (Accounts + HR) Accounts 11000 (Alex + Robin) Alex 6000 (direct values) Robin 5000 HR 4000 Robert 4000 In my production environment, hierarchy table may contain 23000+ rows and fact table may contain 300,000+ rows. So, I thought of providing any level of groupid to the query to retrieve just its children and its corresponding aggregated value. Any better solution?

• Why lock-free data structures just aren't lock-free enough

  - by Alex.Davies

  Today's post will explore why the current ways to communicate between threads don't scale, and show you a possible way to build scalable parallel programming on top of shared memory. The problem with shared memory Soon, we will have dozens, hundreds and then millions of cores in our computers. It's inevitable, because individual cores just can't get much faster. At some point, that's going to mean that we have to rethink our architecture entirely, as millions of cores can't all access a shared memory space efficiently. But millions of cores are still a long way off, and in the meantime we'll see machines with dozens of cores, struggling with shared memory. Alex's tip: The best way for an application to make use of that increasing parallel power is to use a concurrency model like actors, that deals with synchronisation issues for you. Then, the maintainer of the actors framework can find the most efficient way to coordinate access to shared memory to allow your actors to pass messages to each other efficiently. At the moment, NAct uses the .NET thread pool and a few locks to marshal messages. It works well on dual and quad core machines, but it won't scale to more cores. Every time we use a lock, our core performs an atomic memory operation (eg. CAS) on a cell of memory representing the lock, so it's sure that no other core can possibly have that lock. This is very fast when the lock isn't contended, but we need to notify all the other cores, in case they held the cell of memory in a cache. As the number of cores increases, the total cost of a lock increases linearly. A lot of work has been done on "lock-free" data structures, which avoid locks by using atomic memory operations directly. These give fairly dramatic performance improvements, particularly on systems with a few (2 to 4) cores. The .NET 4 concurrent collections in System.Collections.Concurrent are mostly lock-free. However, lock-free data structures still don't scale indefinitely, because any use of an atomic memory operation still involves every core in the system. A sync-free data structure Some concurrent data structures are possible to write in a completely synchronization-free way, without using any atomic memory operations. One useful example is a single producer, single consumer (SPSC) queue. It's easy to write a sync-free fixed size SPSC queue using a circular buffer*. Slightly trickier is a queue that grows as needed. You can use a linked list to represent the queue, but if you leave the nodes to be garbage collected once you're done with them, the GC will need to involve all the cores in collecting the finished nodes. Instead, I've implemented a proof of concept inspired by this intel article which reuses the nodes by putting them in a second queue to send back to the producer. * In all these cases, you need to use memory barriers correctly, but these are local to a core, so don't have the same scalability problems as atomic memory operations. Performance tests I tried benchmarking my SPSC queue against the .NET ConcurrentQueue, and against a standard Queue protected by locks. In some ways, this isn't a fair comparison, because both of these support multiple producers and multiple consumers, but I'll come to that later. I started on my dual-core laptop, running a simple test that had one thread producing 64 bit integers, and another consuming them, to measure the pure overhead of the queue. So, nothing very interesting here. Both concurrent collections perform better than the lock-based one as expected, but there's not a lot to choose between the ConcurrentQueue and my SPSC queue. I was a little disappointed, but then, the .NET Framework team spent a lot longer optimising it than I did. So I dug out a more powerful machine that Red Gate's DBA tools team had been using for testing. It is a 6 core Intel i7 machine with hyperthreading, adding up to 12 logical cores. Now the results get more interesting. As I increased the number of producer-consumer pairs to 6 (to saturate all 12 logical cores), the locking approach was slow, and got even slower, as you'd expect. What I didn't expect to be so clear was the drop-off in performance of the lock-free ConcurrentQueue. I could see the machine only using about 20% of available CPU cycles when it should have been saturated. My interpretation is that as all the cores used atomic memory operations to safely access the queue, they ended up spending most of the time notifying each other about cache lines that need invalidating. The sync-free approach scaled perfectly, despite still working via shared memory, which after all, should still be a bottleneck. I can't quite believe that the results are so clear, so if you can think of any other effects that might cause them, please comment! Obviously, this benchmark isn't realistic because we're only measuring the overhead of the queue. Any real workload, even on a machine with 12 cores, would dwarf the overhead, and there'd be no point worrying about this effect. But would that be true on a machine with 100 cores? Still to be solved. The trouble is, you can't build many concurrent algorithms using only an SPSC queue to communicate. In particular, I can't see a way to build something as general purpose as actors on top of just SPSC queues. Fundamentally, an actor needs to be able to receive messages from multiple other actors, which seems to need an MPSC queue. I've been thinking about ways to build a sync-free MPSC queue out of multiple SPSC queues and some kind of sign-up mechanism. Hopefully I'll have something to tell you about soon, but leave a comment if you have any ideas.

• Ruby on Rails - where to write business logic while processing a request? (newbie)

  - by Genadinik

  I am learning Ruby on Rails. I made a simple link like this: <%= link_to "Alex Link", alexes_path(@alex) %> then I routed it in routes.rb like this: resources :alexes get "home/index" then I am a bit unclear, but I think it goes to this part of the controller: def index #@alexes = Alex.all respond_to do |format| format.html # index.html.erb format.json { render json: @alexes } end end Am I correct that it goes to this part of the controller? Then nothing much happens and it goes to the next page which is index.html.rb under views\alexes So what I am wondering is - if I needed to do some business logic, would I write that in the controller snippet? Where inside the snippet? An example would be nice to take a look. Also, I would like to connect to a MongoDb database. Would I also write that in the middle of the controller? Thanks!

• Excel (.xls) files not opening in Excel when launched from Explorer

  - by Alex Berry

  I appear to have done something to Excel (2003) whereby whenever I double-click on an Excel file (.xls) in Windows Explorer, Excel launches OK, but the corresponding workbook doesn't open, and I'm left with an instance of Excel with no active workbook, i.e. a grey screen. It was fine earlier on, but now it's goosed. It's clearly not windows file associations, as Excel launches ok. It's a problem specific to Excel itself... Any thoughts what I might have done to give rise to this? Many thanks, Alex.

• Dell R910 with Integrated PERC H700 Adapter

  - by Alex

  I am in the process of designing an architecture based around a single Dell R910 server running Windows Server 2008 Enterprise. I would like the server to have 8 RAID1 pairs of spinning disks, so I intend to implement: Dell R910 Server Integrated PERC H700 Adapter with 1 SAS expander on each SAS connector (so 8 expanders in total) 7 RAID1 pairs of 143Gb 15K HDD, each paired on one connector using an expander 1 RAID1 pair of 600Gb 10K HDD, paired on the remaining connector using an expander My main concern is not to introduce bottlenecks in this architecture, and I have the following questions. Will the PERC H700 Adapter act as a bottleneck for disk access? Will using SAS expanders for each RAID1 pair cause a bottleneck or would this be as fast as pairing disks directly attached to the SAS connectors? Can I mix the disks, as long as the disks in each RAID1 pair are the same? I assume so. Can anyone recommend any single-to-double SAS Expanders that are known to function well with the H700? Cheers Alex

• Why is systemd not setting my system time?

  - by Alex Chamberlain

  I'm running Arch Linux. Recently, when I turn on my PC, the system time is set to 1:00 1 January 1970 - presumably the 1:00 o'clock is from the timezone shift. Does anyone have any ideas why systemd isn't setting my system time correctly? Some useful output (I think)...

• Best practice for administering a (hadoop) cluster

  - by Alex

  Dear all, I've recently been playing with Hadoop. I have a six node cluster up and running - with HDFS, and having run a number of MapRed jobs. So far, so good. However I'm now looking to do this more systematically and with a larger number of nodes. Our base system is Ubuntu and the current setup has been administered using apt (to install the correct java runtime) and ssh/scp (to propagate out the various conf files). This is clearly not scalable over time. Does anyone have any experience of good systems for administering (possibly slightly heterogenous: different disk sizes, different numbers of cpus on each node) hadoop clusters automagically? I would consider diskless boot - but imagine that with a large cluster, getting the cluster up and running might be bottle-necked on the machine serving the OS. Or some form of distributed debian apt to keep the machines native environment synchronised? And how do people successfully manage the conf files over a number of (potentially heterogenous) machines? Thanks very much in advance, Alex

• Day 5 - Tada! My Game Menu Screen Graphics

  - by dapostolov

  So, tonight I took some time to mash up some graphics for my game menu screen. My artistic talent sucks...but here goes nothing...voila, my menu screen!! The Menu Screen The screen above is displaying 4 sprites, even though it looks like maybe 7... I guess one of the first things for me to test in the future is ... is it more memory efficient (and better frame rate) to draw one big background image OR tp paint the screen black, and place each sprite in set locations? To display the 4 sprites above, I borrowed my code from yesterday ... I know, tacky, but...I wanted to see it, feel it. Do you feel it? FEEL IT! (homer voice & shakes fist) Note: the menu items won't scale properly as it stands with this code, well pretty much they do nothing except look pretty... Paint.Net & Google Fun So how did I create that image above? Well, to create the background and 3 menu items I used Paint.Net. Basically, I scoured Google images for: a stone doorway, a stone pillar, an old book, a wizards hat, and...that's it pretty much it! I'll let you type in those searches and see if you can locate the images I used. I know, bad developer...but I figured since I modified the images considerably it doesn't count...well for a personal project it shouldn't count...*shrug* Anyhow, I extracted each key assest I wanted from each image and applied lots of matting, blurring, color changes, glow effects and such. Then, using my vivid imagination I placed / composed each of the layered assets into the mashed up the "scene" above. Pretty cool, eh? Hey, did you know, the cool mist effect is actually a fire rendition in Paint.net? I set it to black & white with opacity set next to nothing. I'm also very proud of the yellow "light" in the stone doorway. I drew that in and then applied gausian blur to it to give it the effect of light creeping out around the door and into the room...heheh. So did I achieve the dark, mysterious ritual as I stated in my design doc? I think I had a great stab at it! Maybe down the road I can get a real artist to crank out some quality graphics for the game... =) So, What's Next? Well, I don't have that animated brazier yet...however, I thought it would be even cooler if I can get that door pulsing that yellow light and it would be extremely cool to have the smoke / mist moving across the screen! Make the creative ideas stop!! (clutches head) haha! I'm having great fun working on this project =) I recommend others giving something like this a try, it's really fulfilling. OK. Tomorrow... I think I'm going to start creating some game / menu objects as per the design doc, maybe even get a custom mouse cursor up on the screen and handle a couple of mouse events, and lastly, maybe a feature to toggle a framerate display... D.

• Example of a Good Func Spec?

  - by Alex

  Hey, I'm writing my func spec, and I was wondering if there are any good samples of a complete and well-written func spec? Like "This is a standard You're supposed to aspire to" type of spec. I know that Joel has a skeleteon of a func spec on his website, but I am looking for something more complete because I'm not of the appropriate amount of detail, formatting, etc. Thanks, Alex

• Missing AVFoundation.framework

  - by Alex

  Hi, AVFoundation.framework is not where the documentation says it should be. I have iPhone SDK 2.2 installed (never had previous sdk versions installed) and I can't find that folder under /System/Library/Frameworks I did find it under /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS2.2.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/ folder but if I add it from that location, then the compiler can't find the header files. I tried copying the entire AVFoundation.framework folder to /System/Library/Framework, but it still can't find the header files. How can I use AVFoundation classes? Thanks, Alex
