“Database is locked” on SQLite

An article below helped me remove SQLite’s “Database is locked” messages.

http://sqlite-howto.blogspot.jp/2009/08/sqlite-s-database-is-locked-solution.html

First, I added the following lines to all methods that use Hibernate.
session.close();
sessionFactory.close();

For those non-Hibernate code, (plain JDBC codes), ensure it has something like:

stat.close();

conn.close();

“Database is locked” disappeared.

Maven – How do I skip the tests? -Dmaven.test.skip=true

At default, Maven runs JUnit tests.  There are occasions that we would like to skip JUnit tests.

Maven FAQ had answers.

http://maven.apache.org/general.html#skip-test

By adding a command line parameter,

-Dmaven.test.skip=true

Maven skips JUnit tests.

Alternatively,

-DskipTests=true

can be used as well, according to the FAQ.

 

 

 

X11 Forwarding Fails When IPv6 is Disabled [Resolved]

After disabling Ubuntu 11.10’s IPv6 by putting the following lines in /etc/sysctl.conf, I found that X11 Forwarding (ssh -X option) stopped working.
#Disable IPv6
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1

Ubuntu Forum had an exact same case and workaround.

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1649657

So, I put the following lines in remoet host’s /etc/ssh/sshd_config file.

$ cat /etc/ssh/sshd_config

It worked.

Linux rdesktop (Remote Desktop) with ClearType font smoothing enabled

I was looking for ways to make fonts look better in connecting to Windows from Linux via rdesktop.

The following page shows a great resolution/workaround.

http://katastrophos.net/andre/blog/2008/03/10/rdesktop-connect-to-windows-vista-with-cleartype-font-smoothing-enabled/

$ rdesktop -u mywinusername -k en-us -g 93% -x 80 -r sound myhostipaddress

Two other options than -x 80 are shown in the page above, -x 81 and -x 8f.  (Refer to the page above.)

 

 

Maven 2.2.1 – [WARNING] repository metadata for: ‘org.apache.maven.plugins’ could not be retrieved from repository

On Maven 2.2.1, I had trouble when executing, “mvn archetype:generate”, with the following errors.

[INFO] Searching repository for plugin with prefix: ‘archetype’.
[INFO] org.apache.maven.plugins: checking for updates from central
[WARNING] repository metadata for: ‘org.apache.maven.plugins’ could not be retrieved from repository: central due to an error: Error transferring file: Connection timed out
[INFO] Repository ‘central’ will be blacklisted

Finally, it turned out that the proxies section in settings.xml was not commented/uncommented properly. Windows XP Firewall or security software had nothing to do with the error.

CVS Server Installation on Ubuntu Linux 10.04

I installed CVS Server on Ubuntu 10.04.
CVS repository is copied from another machine, and it is placed in /opt/cvsroot .

Reference:
https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/cvs-server.html

# apt-get install xinetd
# apt-cache search git-cvs
# apt-get install git-cvs
# apt-cache search cvsps
# apt-get install cvsps

Edit /etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver .

# vi /etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver

The file now looks:

# cat /etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver
service cvspserver
{
port = 2401
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
user = root
wait = no
type = UNLISTED
server = /usr/bin/cvs
server_args = -f –allow-root /opt/cvsroot pserver
disable = no
}

# /etc/init.d/xinetd restart

Ensure CVS server is running.

# netstat -tap | grep cvs
tcp 0 0 *:cvspserver *:* LISTEN 11676/xinetd

Ubuntu Screen Resolution on Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 with Trident XP

I installed Ubuntu Linux 10.04 on Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 with Trident XP 16MB video, which is about 10 years old.
At first, the screen resolution was 800×600 on 1024×768 LCD.

Finding the following entry, I made /etc/X11/xorg.conf as shown below.
