Increasing Java Heap Memory Size on Openfire 4.0.3 (Slackware 14.0 and Debian 8.5)

Slackware 14.0
Openfire Version : 4.0.3
Installed location : /opt/openfire

increasing java heap memory size
creating openfire.vmoptions

root:# touch /opt/openfire/bin/openfire.vmoptions

and at this value to openfire.vmoptions (mine is max 1GB), change value as needed.

root:# mcedit /opt/openfire/bin/openfire.vmoptions
-Xms512m
-Xmx1024m

Testing

Start openfire and grep it to see if variable inside openfire.vmoptions used or not.

Openfire RSA Certificate issue (RSA certificate not valid)

I got this error after moving my openfire database from Slackware 14.0 to Debian 8.5,

but it just simple problem and openfire already have this solution, just follow this step to resolve issue. Now open TLS/SSL Crtificates tab, and Delete ALL certificates there.

Now you should get new certificates

And everything back to normal

Moving Openfire 4.0.3 Embedded Database from Slackware 14.0 to Debian 8.5

Slackware 14.0

embedded-db location is at  /opt/openfire/embedded-db/ that because im installing Openfire at directory /opt

root:# ls -al /opt/openfire/embedded-db/
total 172672
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root      4096 Oct 24 13:26 ./

-rw-r--r--  1 root root       410 Oct 24 13:26 openfire.properties
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 172378422 Oct 24 13:26 openfire.script

Basicly embedded openfire database is only script, yes it just one script contains many SQL command, and that script is openfire.script inside directory embedded-db.

Okay, before we doing backup for directory embedded-db, we must stop openfire service.

root:# /etc/rc.d/rc.openfire stop

Then zip it using zip tool

root:# zip -r embedded-db.slackware.zip embedded-db/
updating: embedded-db/ (stored 0%)
  adding: embedded-db/openfire.properties (deflated 42%)
  adding: embedded-db/openfire.script (deflated 89%)
  adding: embedded-db/openfire.lck (stored 0%)

And you will get embedded-db.slackware.zip (you can use another name) and copy embedded-db.slackware.zip  to Debian 8.5.


Debian 8.5 
embedded-db location is at /usr/share/openfire/ but linked to /var/lib/openfire/embedded-db/

  adding: embedded-db/ (stored 0%)
  adding: embedded-db/openfire.properties (deflated 43%)
  adding: embedded-db/openfire.script (deflated 58%)

Delete directory embedded-db

root@triton:/var/lib/openfire# rm -Rf embedded-db

Now unzip embedded-db.slackware.zip

root@triton:# unzip embedded-db.slackware.zip

make it become openfire owner with this command

root@triton:/var/lib/openfire# chown openfire:openfire embedded-db -R

Start debian openfire with this command

root@triton:# /etc/init.d/openfire start

open your openfire server at : http://your.openfire.url:9090 and change this value

server --> server manager --> system properties -->xmpp.domain
server --> server manager --> system information-->edit properties (button - left bottom) --> server name

After moving database from one server to another server maybe you will get RSA Certificate issue (RSA certificate not valid), follow this step to resolve it.

Password Protection with htaccess

You can protecting directory on apache web server so no unauthorized people may access it, in here we would like use .htaccess file (there is DOT at front htaccess file name) on apache root directory.

root:# cat .htaccess

AuthType Basic

AuthName "Restricted Access"

AuthUserFile /home/apasswords

Require user anjani

root:# ls -al .htaccess

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 103 Oct  9 08:38 .htaccess

Make password for user anjani and save it on file /home/apasswords

root:# htpasswd -c /home/apasswords anjani

New password: ******

Re-type new password: ******

Adding password for user anjani

root:# cat /home/apasswords

anjani:jBdra06B5M54.

The password on the appasswords is encrypted

root:# ls -al /home/apasswords

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 21 Oct  9 14:18 /home/apasswords

Done.

[SOLVED] HighPoint RocketRAID 620 - 88SE9125 SATA Controller

After several days of fighting with the mysterious 88SE9125 SATA Controller from HighPoint RocketRAID 620, finally I found the easiest way to solve this problem, this problem has been much discussed in many forums. But most of the discussion only on how to install the driver from the HighPoint, I've tried but still failed, even I get Slackware upgrade from version 12 to 14, but still failed. until finally I decided to do a kernel recompile from scratch. and successfully. and here is my journey.

HighPoint RocketRAID 620 - 88SE9125 SATA Controller

Download latest kernel and extract it.

cd /tmp
wget https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/linux-3.8.7.tar.xz
tar -xvf linux-3.8.7.tar.xz -C /usr/src/linux

Remove the old symlink

rm -f /usr/src/linux
cd /usr/src
ln -s linux-3.8.7 linux

To begin to compile the kernel, I need a config file, but I do not want to start from scratch by doing a check one by one the options in menuconfig, I could just take the config from kernel-smp-3.2.9 but I do not want it, because that kernel does not able to detect the SATA controller, so I decided to take the config file from Slax kernel 7.0, because slax 7.0 using kernel-3.8.2 and able to detect the SATA Controller.

Get config file from slax 7.0

cd /tmp
wget http://ftp.slax.org/Slax-7.x-development/sources/Slax-7.0-sources/kernel/.config-i486
cp -v .config-i486 .config /usr/src/linux/.config

Now Let's start compiling kernel, Run make oldconfig in the kernel source directory, so processes will use config from the .config file you just copied.

Compiling kernel

cd /usr/src/linux
make oldconfig
make menuconfig # if you want change something do it now, but i don't touch it and it worked for me.

Now, start the build of kernel and modules, and install them to the proper places.

make bzImage modules # compile the kernel and the modules
make modules_install # installs the modules to /lib/modules/

Copying file to correct director

cp -v arch/x86/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-3.8.6-10.04.13-diantokam # copy the new kernel file
cp -v System.map /boot/System.map-3.8.6-10.04.13-diantokam # copy the System.map (optional)
cp -v .config /boot/config-3.8.6-10.04.13-diantokam # backup copy of your kernel config

Fixing some symlink on /boot directory

cd /boot
rm -f System.map # delete the old link
ln -s System.map-3.8.6-10.04.13-diantokam System.map # create a new link
ln -s vmlinuz-3.8.6-10.04.13-diantokam vmlinuz # create a new kernel link

Updating initrd
In case your kernel does not include the driver for your root filesystem, or a driver for your SATA bus, or other stuff that is only built as modules, your kernel will panic if it boots and can not access the necessary disks, partitions and/or files

cd /boot
wget http://www.slackware.com/~alien/tools/mkinitrd_command_generator.sh
sh mkinitrd_command_generator.sh

#
# mkinitrd_command_generator.sh revision 1.45
#
# This script will now make a recommendation about the command to use
# in case you require an initrd image to boot a kernel that does not
# have support for your storage or root filesystem built in
# (such as the Slackware 'generic' kernels').
# A suitable 'mkinitrd' command will be:

mkinitrd -c -k 3.8.6-10.04.13-diantokam -f ext3 -r /dev/sda1 -m usbhid:uhci-hcd:ext3 -u -o /boot/initrd.gz

Now finally we must change rc.module symlink

cd /etc/rc.d/
rm -f rc.modules
ln -s rc.modules-3.8.6-10.04.13-diantokam rc.modules

Now reboot your computer and may pinguin with yo

BUT after rebooting, i still got alot of trouble, because i use 8 SATA and 1 PATA at once, the system always recognize my hardisk with different sequence when i swap out one or maybe some disk for testing, that way i suggest all of you to using UUID on grub menu.lst, 

And here is my menu.lst:

cat /boot/grub/menu.lst
timeout 10
color light-gray/red black/light-gray
title Slackware 14.0 on (/dev/sda1)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=UUID=6eaf2751-c81d-48ca-b896-4d7ff530da5e ro vga=791 raid=noautodetect
initrd /boot/initrd.gz

And here is my disks after finall booting

[SOLVED] Getting PostgreSQL 9.1.4 module for PHP-5.4.7 on Slackware 14

Slackware 14 by default carrying PHP-5.4.7 and running smooth well, BUT unfortunately it doesn't come with PostgreSQL, after searching for a while, i decided to install PostgreSQl from scratch.

PostgreSQL 9.1.4 :

Source : postgresql-9.1.4.tar.bz2

SlackBuild : postgresql.tar.gz

Follow this step to compile and install PostgreSQL 9.1.4 on Slackware 14.0 :

1. cd /tmp

2. wget ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/source/v9.1.4/postgresql-9.1.4.tar.bz2

3. Extract SlackBuild script tar -zxvf postgresql-9.1.4.tar.gz

4. Go to Extracted directory cd postgresql-9.1.4

5. Run this command sh postgresql.SlackBuild /tmp/postgresql-9.1.4.tar.bz2

6. After all finish, it will create /tmp/postgresql-9.1.4-i486-1_SBo.tgz

7. Install it using installpkg postgresql-9.1.4-i486-1_SBo.tgz

8. Run this command su postgres -c "initdb -D /var/lib/pgsql/data"

9. Then run this /etc/rc.d/rc.postgresql start

10. Done

Now, the hard part ^^, actually after you find solution, you will said...Hhhmmm just like that hah :D, because PHP-5.4.7 inside Slackware 14 is not compiled using --with=pgsql option, and because i don't want to touch anything about PHP that i'm already set all option and some configuration running smothly on PHP-5.4.7, and also because my server is used for production. the point is, i just want to add pgsql.so into php.ini. That's it, nothing more.

And here is the solution.

PHP-5.4.7 :

Source : php-5.4.7.tar.bz2

SlackBuild : php-pgsql.tar.gz ( I Know this script for PHP-5.4.6, just relax okay ^^ )

Follow my step please :

1. cd /tmp

2. wget http://www.php.net/distributions/php-5.4.7.tar.bz2

3. wget http://slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/14.0/libraries/php-pgsql.tar.gz

4. Extract SlackBuild script tar -zxvf php-pgsql.tar.gz

5. Go to extracted directory cd php-pgsql

6. Then mcedit php-pgsql.SlackBuild, and change version to correct one (5.4.7)

7. mcedit php-pgsql.info and change, change version and MD5SUM too.

8. Then run php-pgsql.SlackBuild /tmp/php-pgsql.tar.gz

9. After finish, you should get /tmp/php-pgsql-5.4.7-i486-1_SBo.tgz

10. Installpkg /tmp/php-pgsql-5.4.7-i486-1_SBo.tgz

11. Enable pgsql module by editing mcedit /etc/php/pgsql.ini and enable extension=pgsql.so by removing ;

12. Done

Proved :

root@slackware:~/Desktop# php -m | grep pgsql

If everything okay, you will get pgsql as result.

My info.php

And here my SlackBuild for PHP-5.4.7

PostgreSQL 9.0.4 with Slackware 13.37

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system (ORDBMS) based on POSTGRES. With more than 15 years of development history, it is quickly becoming the de facto database for enterprise level open source solutions. This build includes full text search support (tsearch2).

Home: http://www.postgresql.org.Repository: SlackersDownload size: 4,26 MBInstalled size: 22,48 MBPackage filename: postgresql-9.0.4-i686-1cf.txz

Step 1: Download postgresql-9.0.4-i686-1cf.txz for Slackware 13.37 from here and install it.

#installpkg postgresql-9.0.4-i686-1cf.txz

Step 2: Create postgreSQL user account

# adduser postgres# passwd postgresChanging password for user postgres.New UNIX password:Retype new UNIX password:passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.

Configuring PostgreSQL 9.0.4 on Slackware 13.37

After succesfully install postgresql on slackware, the next point is to configuring postgresql so it can accessing from network ( local network).


Step 1: edit postgresql.conf

#mcedit /var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf

change at the connections and authentication section, find the
listen_addresses = 'localhost' and change it to
listen_addresses = '*'
and uncomment
#port =5432 so it becomes
port = 5432
and save it.

Step 2: edit pg_hba.conf
Because i connecting postgresql server from my laptop which have ip number 192.168.110.131 and some times i would like connected from another 192.168.110. ip number, so i editing pg_hba.conf like this

#mcedit /var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf

addes this line to pg_hba.conf

host    all     all     192.168.110.0/24     md5

Getting PostgreSQL 9.0.4 module for PHP-5.3.8 on Slackware 13.37

I wanted to play around with PostgreSQL on the test server at work today, and found the slackpack over at LinuxPackages. I was very pleased that I wouldn’t have to compile PostgreSQL from source, as such complex apps will take more time than I would like to invest.

Anyway, once I’ve installed the package, and initialised the database, I decided to give phpPgAdmin a whirl on my freshly baked PostgreSQL installation, but when I try to use it I get an error message telling me that I have not compiled proper database support into my PHP installation.

I checked out my phpinfo(); and sure enough, Slackware‘s package was not built with the --with-pgsql option.

Most of my googling results mention that the only solution is to recompile PHP from scratch, including the --with-pgsql flag. Hmm, I'm really hate to replace my original PHP installation which was done in the “proper” way, ie. via the available slackpack. Who know what the hell I can possibly misconfigure and break!

Slackware 13.37 + Dovecot 2.0.15 (Configuration)

Get Dovecot 2.0.15 from here (dovecot-2.0.15-i686-1cf.txz) then install it

$ upgradepkg --install-new dovecot-2.0.15-i686-1cf.txz

Then, start for configuration

$ cp -v /usr/doc/dovecot-2.0.15/example-config/* /etc/dovecot/
