Arrived in Linz yesterday night by train. Getting from tram station to the hotel was difficult since the wheel’s didn’t really work with all the snow on the group. I had completely overlooked the fact that there might be snow when packing in Toronto. This shot was taken during the lunch break at the Vamos workshop today. The pond must have been deep since it was definitely below zero yet the water wasn’t frozen over.
Thorsten and Maria brought me to the Monument of the Battle of Nations today. I went with the expectation of seeing a statue, only to find this monolithic structure overlooking a frozen-over lake. It looked as if it could have been out of the Lord of the Rings.
I’ve been getting into photography lately, and it’s been quite an interesting process so far. It’s incredible how a photograph can capture all the little details that you just didn’t notice when you were there in person. I’m only at the start of this journey (or addiction)… it’ll be interesting to see where I end up a year from now.
I haven’t spent much time on this blog lately and now I’ve run into the classic migration problem. I’ll be slowly updating in the next couple days.
Here’s a short guide for installing Confluence on a shared Tomcat server instance on Ubuntu 8.10. Apache Tomcat 6 can be installed using a simple apt-get command:
sudo apt-get install tomcat6
Next, we’ll need to raise the Tomcat heap size for confluence. Edit /etc/default/tomcat6 and add the line:
JAVA_OPTS="-Xms128m -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m $JAVA_OPTS -Djava.awt.headless=true"
Now, we’ll need to grant security permissions to the Confluence webapp. To do this, create a file /etc/tomcat6/policy.d/05confluence.policy and place the following text in it:
grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/webapps/confluence/-" {
permission java.security.AllPermission;
};
grant {
permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "accessDeclaredMembers";
permission java.lang.reflect.ReflectPermission "suppressAccessChecks";
permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "defineCGLIBClassInJavaPackage";
};
Finally, we can restart Tomcat using the command:
/etc/init.d/tomcat6 restart
