ksh: cvs: not found
Q: I'm trying to do a cvs command, but I get the error ksh: cvs: not found.
A: The problem is ksh the remote shell, and it doesn't have cvs on it's path. You can specify the remote path by setting the following variable in your local environment: export CVS_SERVER=/opt/mystuff/cvs
httperf
Getting httpref to compile with ssl support on Solaris 10 x86 was a challenge. First I downloaded it of course, then I applied these settings to my environment:
export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/ssl/include" export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/ssl/lib" ./configure --prefix=/u/egge/ grep rpl_malloc * vi config.h # Remove #define malloc rpl_malloc make clean && make && make install export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/ssl/lib" $ ldd /u/egge/bin/httperf libresolv.so.2 => /lib/libresolv.so.2 libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 libsocket.so.1 => /lib/libsocket.so.1 libssl.so.0.9.8 => /usr/local/ssl/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8 libcrypto.so.0.9.8 => /usr/local/ssl/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 libm.so.2 => /lib/libm.so.2 libc.so.1 => /lib/libc.so.1 libmp.so.2 => /lib/libmp.so.2 libmd5.so.1 => /lib/libmd5.so.1 libscf.so.1 => /lib/libscf.so.1 libdl.so.1 => /lib/libdl.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1 => /u/egge/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 libdoor.so.1 => /lib/libdoor.so.1 libuutil.so.1 => /lib/libuutil.so.1
tar
When I first compiled gnu's tar for Solaris, I had libiconv.so.2 dynamically linked. The problem with this is when I copied the tar binary to another machine I had to add libiconv.so.2 to LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
$ ldd /u/egge/bin/tar
libiconv.so.2 => (file not found)
librt.so.1 => /lib/librt.so.1
libc.so.1 => /lib/libc.so.1
libaio.so.1 => /lib/libaio.so.1
libmd5.so.1 => /lib/libmd5.so.1
libm.so.2 => /lib/libm.so.2
I'm not sure if the LD_OPTIONS is needed, but in theory, this should allow the runtime linker to search a relative path.
$ export LD_OPTIONS='-R $ORIGIN/../lib' $ unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH $ ./configure --prefix=$HOME --exec-prefix=$HOME --with-static $ make && make install
Now tar is compiled without a dependency on libiconv.so.2.
$ ldd tar
librt.so.1 => /lib/librt.so.1
libc.so.1 => /lib/libc.so.1
libaio.so.1 => /lib/libaio.so.1
libmd5.so.1 => /lib/libmd5.so.1
libm.so.2 => /lib/libm.so.2
rsync
I was getting an error when transferring some files
$ rsync -e ssh ... rsync: error writing 4 unbuffered bytes - exiting: Broken pipe rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(464) $ rsync --version rsync version 2.5.4 protocol version 26 Copyright (C) 1996-2002 by Andrew Tridgell and others <http://rsync.samba.org/> Capabilities: 64-bit files, socketpairs, hard links, symlinks, batchfiles, no IPv6, 64-bit system inums, 64-bit internal inums
I compiled a more recent rsync (2.6.9), and it fixed the issue.
I have a user installed rsync, and a locked down ssh. In order to rsync files, I use this command.
rsync -e ssh --rsync-path=~/bin/rsync -avz --progress source dest
vim Solaris 5.8
source-highlight-2.7
# First I needed to compile boost. This was not so bad $ ./configure --prefix=$HOME --exec-prefix=$HOME --with-libraries=regex --enable-static=yes # The I had to figure out how to get source-highlight to compile $ ./configure --prefix=$HOME --exec-prefix=$HOME --enable-static=yes --enable-shared=yes CPPFLAGS=-I${HOME}/include/boost-1_34_1 \ --with-boost-regex=gcc41-1_34_1
Comma separate a list
The challenge here is to avoid a trailing comma.
$ echo "foo\nbar\n" | awk ' {printf "%s%s",s,$0;s=","}END{print ""} ' foo,bar
