About "Real scripting"

Hi everyone; I'm a rich internet applications developer and I will publish in this blog everything I think is useful to avoid you some headache. Useful scripts in php, shell, vbs and JavaScript. I will publish other info too that maybe will help you in your search journey on the web. If you need professional developing you can reach me also on my website www.zanfi.nl

Today I was implementing the Gapi Google analytics php interface and I struggled in a issue in the account settings.

This is the url of the class:

http://code.google.com/p/gapi-google-analytics-php-interface/

In order to get you data from Google you have to fill your account data (see below):

define('ga_email','youremail@email.com');
define('ga_password','your password');
define('ga_profile_id','your profile id');

Right, everything OK till the ga_profile_id; this id seems to me almost impossible to find in your dashboard. I tried the id's of the tracking code that you have to insert in the tracked page, but without success.

After almost an hour of research I was able to find my code. The code is the number that you find in the URL of your Google analytics page after the p character

Here an example:

https://www.google.com/analytics/web/?hl=nl&pli=1#home/axxxxxxxxwxxxxxxxxpxxxxxxxx/

Use that code as ga_profile_id and you will be able to authenticate and get your data.

Killing orphans and zombies

Image
First please do not misunderstand me about "killing orphans and zombies". I'm for sure not going to hurt people without parents or people that are already dead :-( I'm talking about running processes that can be harmful for your system and shuld be better get killed. First of all a Zombie process is not an orphan process. As the word says, an orphan process is a procees without legitim parent, a zombie process is not alive but still have an entry in parent table. A process can be orphaned either intentionally or unintentionally. Sometime a parent process exits/terminates or crashes leaving the child process still running, and then they become orphans. In Linux/Unix like operating systems, as soon as parents of any process are dead, re-parenting occurs, automatically. Re-parenting processes whose parents are dead, means Orphaned processes, are immediately adopted by special process "init". Take a look to a htop situation where winexe causes a lot of or

ZAMP a windows portable LAMP webserver

Hi folks, recently I was searching for a good "test" easy to use and stable webserver for a windows box. I found and tried some packages with the surprise that NONE was reliable or stable enough. Even the famous XAMPP didn't passed my tests. So I decided to gather the tools together and create a webserver package with a LAMP stack. Even I didn't want to "install" it on de windows box or start services on boot! I came with a package called "ZAMP". Here below some specs: "Zanfi" Apache (2.4.39) MariaDb (10.4) Php (7.3.7) webserver This webserver runs as standalone as default in a directory. Make in the root of the C: a directory named zamp and put the content in it. This is a development environment. Do not use it for production. Double click the zamp.hta file to start Apache webserver and MySql database server. "NO" service is installed. You have to start and stop manually the two servers. Windows firewall will

XPDF Segmentation fault (core dumped) SOLVED

I have a friend with a Linux Mint based on Ubuntu 13.04 that has to use a Java program (jnlp); this program has some print features that doesn't open a print dialog but fires XPDF directly. That's very annoying, because there is no possibility afaik to change the default pdf program inside the application. I suppose that the command is hard coded in the application itself. The problem is that XPDF opens and shuts down immediately and no pdf is shown. Launching XPDF from a terminal window the following errors are thrown: $ xpdf main.pdf ***** MediaBox = ll:0,0 ur:595.276,841.89 ***** CropBox = ll:0,0 ur:595.276,841.89 ***** Rotate = 0 Segmentation fault (core dumped) After a lot of trials without any success I found the solution to fix that: sudo apt-get install libfreetype6-dev libmotif-dev wget ftp://ftp.foolabs.com/pub/xpdf/xpdf-3.03.tar.gz tar xzpf xpdf-3.03.tar.gz cd xpdf-3.03 ./configure --with-freetype2-library=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu / --with-freetype2-include
