I was away for a week. We went to Kolozsvár for two days, then we spent some days in Hajdúszoboszló. I’m not very excited about these spas and bathing places, so I went for two days to Szatmár County, to do some family research. The results will be posted soon in the Hungarian version of my blog.

Last Saturday was the wedding day for my girlfriend’s sister. My girlfriend was one of the bridesmaids. There are two pictures of us, one is before midnight, the other one is after midnight.

I had some problems with translating some texts to Hungarian. Blog entries and pages were ok, but trying to translate info texts and menu items resulted in an error message:

Query failed: ERROR: relation "localizertranslation_tid_seq" does not exist.

The solution was quite straightforward:

CREATE SEQUENCE localizertranslation_tid_seq;
ALTER TABLE localizertranslation_tid_seq OWNER TO drupaluser;

There was some delay, but vanyi.org is now migrated. I can get some sleep finally… ZZzzz…

Two days ago I received good news: the server that will host vanyi.org is up and running. I was already able to log in. This means vanyi.org will be migrated soon. Theoretically it will mean only improvement. All the existing pages, blog entries and user accounts will be kept. Stay tuned.

I added multi-lingual content support to vanyi.org. This means that content is categorized into English and Hungarian. Some entries are available in both languages. My general blog is mostly in English, whereas family research blog, as well as family history pages are in Hungarian. However, I will try to translate some pages to English.

It might happen that some links do not work, but I will try to fix these asap.

I just wanted to install tomcat:

Package: tomcat5.5
Depends: java-gcj-compat-dev (>= 1.0.30-5) | kaffe (>= 2:1.1.6-3) | java2-runtime, libtomcat5.5-java (>= 5.5.20-4), adduser (>= 3.34), ecj-bootstrap, jsvc


Hmmm.. what’s that java2-runtime?


Package java2-runtime is a virtual package provided by:
sun-j2re1.5 1.5.0+update03
sun-java6-jre 6-00-2
sun-java5-jre 1.5.0-11-1
gij-4.1 4.1.2-4
gij 4:4.1.2-2


Well, in this case everithing is OK, since

sun-java5-jre is already the newest version.


However,

Package: ecj-bootstrap
Depends: ecj


Furthermore,

Package: ecj
Depends: gij-4.1 (>= 4.1.2-1), libgcj7-jar (>= 4.1.2-1), java-common (>= 0.23)

So, eventhough I have sun-java5-jre (even sun-java5-sdk), I also have to install gij-4.1.

Why is it always so complicated for me to run anything written in Java?

It’s time to shut down for 24 hours…

The time has come to install 3rd party fonts to a linux laptop. It was not easy to find out how to do this. Although the process itself is simple:

# defoma-hints --no-question {type} /usr/share/fonts/{type}/{dir}/{files} >/etc/defoma/hints/{name}.hints
# defoma-font register-all /etc/defoma/hints/{name}.hints
# dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig


I’m expecting the brand new .vanyi.org server to be set up within one or two weeks, and after that I can start migrating my stuff. Until then I’m just fowarding my email to the Mora dormitory, where I still have my email address. However, today an issue came up:

# echo helo |netcat orion.fwall.u-szeged.hu 25
421 orion.fwall.u-szeged.hu: Too many concurrent SMTP connections; please try again later

The MX for Mora is orion and eos. Both were full. I’ve checked the postfix incoming graph with munin on the dormitory server, and it was clear that only the half of the usual email traffic came through. My test email did not. So, I’ve quickly changed the forwarding to gmail. I hope no important email has been lost in the last 24 hours.
