LINUX-FEDORA -- environment variables..
QUESTION 1. This may sound like a dump question (okay,it is a dump question):
CATALINA_HOME=/usr/local/tomcat-4.1.30
APACHE_HOME=/usr/local/apache2
ANT_HOME=/usr/local/ant
JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_05
J2EE_HOME=/usr/java/j2sdkee1.3.1
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$J2EE_HOME/bin
CLASSPATH=.:$J2EE_HOME/lib/j2ee.jar:$J2EE_HOME/lib/locale
export CATALINE_HOME
export APACHE_HOME
export ANT_HOME
export JAVA_HOME
export J2EE_HOME
export CLASS_PATH
What does command "export" do? I found this:http://www.er.uqam.ca/nobel/r10735/unixcomm.html
export - place the value of a variable in the calling environment (makes it global). This is a shell builtin.
But don't quite get what it means...
QUESTION 2: I placed the above script in file /etc/profile so environment variables get loaded everytime you go into console mode by "CTRL-ATL-F1" -- BUT, is this equivalent to "System" environment variables in Windows? I notice that this script wasn't executed if console is launched from "menu>System Tools>Terminal" (launched from desktop menu)... how can I get around this?
THanks!

Export makes the variable available to programs started from your current shell. Without "export" the variable value is usable only in the shell script where it's defined.
Q2: Looks like the shell launched from System Tools->Terminal isn't a login shell, so it doesn't read /etc/profile. A workaround for this is to place the commands in a separate script in the /etc/profile.d directory so it gets sourced by /etc/bashrc. You should do this anyway for your own customizations instead of modifying the system /etc/profile script. Give the script a ".sh" suffix and make it executable.
BTW. you should subscribe to the Fedora mailing list, or use the forums at FedoraForum.org.

Thanks, yes, it's "bashrc" launched from "System Tools>Terminal" that's having problem. I've followed your instruction and placed a startup script (profile.sh) under "etc/profile.d" directory - it worked and it gets executed everytime bash is launched.
btw,
1. Why is it called "bashrc" and not "bash"? does "rc" stands for something? "root console" perhaps?
2. If any application is launched from Console (login shell or bashrc), then obviously the environment variables in my startup scripts (etc/profile.d/profile.sh) would be in effect. But what if the application is launched from side menu bar? profile.sh only runs when you launch "bashrc".

I use Windows Media Player 10 for my media files. I also use media player for listening
to & previewing of songs and videos on music.msn.com and movies.msn.com. Since a
few days, i have all of a sudden started getting an error whenever i click on the
play/preview button on music.msn.com or movies.msn.com for any song or video clip.
The error states :
Windows Media Player cannot play the file because the specified protocol is not supported.
If you typed a URL in the Open URL dialog box, try using a different transport protocol
(for example, "http:" or "rtsp:").
the error still persists .. i hv even tried re-installing media player but to no
avail ... plz help me

Hi
I have a batch file that calls an executable to perform some pausing and resuming of services during a backup process. My question is there a way to have some error reporting in the batch file say a "script error" or something along those lines. Thanks in advance.

In my opinion, you may plan you code what to do when it will running. For example your code have 5 actions to perform, so at the end of each section you should write any code to output to the file to inform that it is running successfully. So when your batch file run it will output to the file or append to the file (base on what you specify) if the action in your code is running successfully, but if you write anything wrong and your code stop running unexpectly it won't write any result to the file (the file that you specify the path and file name). So you might know where the code is reach it process.

Hi there !
I would request for your esteemed opinion, in case you feel this could be of help in my context.
I have a peculiar problem. It goes as follows -
I have got a multithreaded windows ( windows 2000 ) app running.
I am using a CreateEvent() to create an event object. It goes like this -
CreateEvent(NULL, // no security attributes
TRUE, // manual reset event
FALSE, // not-signalled
"RASNOTIF_EV");
Subsequently using OpenEvent(), in the following manner -
RasEvnt = OpenEvent (SYNCHRONIZE | EVENT_MODIFY_STATE, FALSE, (LPCTSTR)"RASNOTIF_EV");
Now, on rare occassions the above OpenEvent call fails and the GetLastError retirns a value of 2; => ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
I came across the following info in this context -
"The last parameter indicates the name of a kernel object. You cannot pass NULL for this parameter;
you must pass the address of a zero-terminated string.
The functions search the single name space of kernel objects attempting to find a match.
If no kernel object with the specified name exists, the functions return NULL and GetLastError returns 2 (ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND). "
In the context of the Windows 2000 API call OpenEvent, I seek to understand as to what might be causing this ? And, if this is because of an error at Kernel level because of whatever reasons - is it possible that the system reboots owing to this ?
Please share your esteemed thoughts on this critcial issue I am facing.
Thanks !
Please respond to -

If you're trying to use the same event from two (or more) threads in the same app, simply use the same handle. Keep the handle in a global location, or pass it into the ThreadProc.
If you're trying to use the same event from two (or more) different apps (or instances of the same app), you'd typically call CreateEvent in each app's code. If you need to know whether this call actually created it, call GetLastError immediately after CreateEvent succeeds. If this call created the object, it will return 0 (ERROR_SUCCESS). If the object already existed, it will return ERROR_ALREADY_EXISTS.
I've never used OpenEvent.
I suspect the problem you're running into is some form of race condition - either the creator hasn't created it yet, or the other apps have quit and there are no handles open to it, so the kernel deletes it.
Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

My hard drive start to make a worring noise, so I decided to put in another drive and use Norton Ghost to clone the original hard drive.
The original hard drive was 80GB and the new one 120GB.
But when I first put in the second drive(jumper set to slave) the PC failed to boot. I checked the connections etc but only got it to work when I place the original cable into the Master drive and the spare connector connector in the slave drive.
My question is "Does it matter what connector you use for each drive"?
e.g. Original setup just the single drive (set as Master)
Motherboard----------<connector>----------<master>
This did not work
Motherboard----------<master>----------<slave>
But this did
Motherboard----------<slave>----------<master>

I would like give you some idea: Remove your 80GB hard drive then connect your 120GB drive and set jumper to master and detect in your CMOS. If it is working it mean that when you connect with 80GB you might set wrong jumper or did not configure properly in CMOS. But if you connect only 120GB and it is not working it might be your mainboard do not support the size of the hard disk drive. As far as I know each mainboard must have it limitation for other component when working together. Try to check your mainboard manual, how high the maximum capacity of hard disk drive that it will support.

I have both drives present on my computer and have cloned my other drive - not tested it yet.
The question was to do with the cable; I though it did not matter which way it was connected.
e.g.
original situation
<motherboard>--------<spare>-------------<old drive="">
now this did not work!
<motherboard>--------<old drive="">-------------<new drive="">
but this did
<motherboard>--------<newdrive>-------------<old drive="">
Are they anythink special with the cable (I thought it did not matter the way you connected the hard drives.

|
|
|

Ok, If you think it is become the cable, try to change the new cable from the other machine.

My question is "Does it matter what connector you use for each drive"?
In hard drives I've installed, I've noticed jumper settings for "cable select." If your origonal hard drive was set up for cable select, then your first attempt would have put two slave drives in your computer, but your second attempt would have correctly made your first hard drive a master.
In short, if "cable select" means the obvious, then the cable connectors can matter if one of the drives is configured that way.

How do you uninstall a Windows Service without the service's binary. For instance,
installutil -u MyService.exe
Fine, as long as you have the binary. Now, what if you don't? I'm asking because Oracle Universal installer screwed up half way during the installation process and it left some installed Windows Services on my system which I can't uninstall... 
btw, there IS A TOOL that can do this. I've done this some two years ago, but I can't remember what this is and where to get it... damn...
