Host static web site on Google Cloud Storage

A few steps, base on https://developers.google.com/storage/docs/website-configuration

  • Register a domain name, for example, mydomain.com
  • Go to https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/ to verity the domain ownership. Typically I create DNS TXT (Follow alternate method, then Domain name provider) to end-up adding something like that:
[blank] IN TXT "google-site-verification=MjSLfpPhbuQqEVdNjx9qlzMmtX5oZdvgShdBLn-Nhik"
  • Create a bucket with the [subdomain.]mydomain.com name (subdomains are optional)
  • push 2 simple files to it (index.html, 404.html)
  • Configure the bucket as a web site
setwebcfg -m index.html -e 404.html gs://subdomain.mydomain.com
  • In your DNS create a CNAME aliases of c.storage.googleapis.com
subdomain IN CNAME c.storage.googleapis.com

Voilà

Soving AccessDenied on Google Cloud Storage domain mapping





















As I was facing this again trying to create amp pages for my main site www.tekartik.com , here is a concrete example for my changes   Adding the proper DNS redirection in my domain provider (OVH in my case)   www.tekartik.com. CNAME c.storage.googleapis.com.  This was first giving the error:   <Error>   <Code>AccessDenied</Code>   <Message>Access denied.</Message>   <Details>Anonymous callers do not have storage.objects.list access to bucket www.tekartik.com.</Details> </Error>  the solution was to configure my bucket as a website configuration :   gsutil web set -m index.html -e 404.html gs://www.tekartik.com  And to make all files I add public by default and not worry about ACL anymore, I can use   gsutil defacl ch -u AllUsers:R gs://www.tekartik.com  To make previous imported files public, I can use   gsutil -m acl -r set public-read gs://www.tekartik.com

Fixing "DerInputStream.getLength(): lengthTag=109, too big" in Android Studio





















This happened to me in Android Studio after AndroidX migration and using the new testing framework. Even deleting the existing ~/.android/debug.keystore was failing for me   The solution was regenerate it manually (accept all questions as empty and say yes at the last one)   $ keytool -genkey -v -keystore debug.keystore -storepass android -alias androiddebugkey -keypass android -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000   And copy it   $ rm ~/.android/debug.keystore $ cp debug.keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore

Simple Samba setup on Lubuntu





















I have a simple lubuntu server where I setup a ssh server. While it is sufficient to access a driver/folder from another linux machine using sftp, it is a pain from Windows & Mac, so unfortunately, samba is still needed here.   For simplicity I needed only one samba user that I could map to a single user on my lubuntu machine   Following the various tutorial I ended up doing this with simple commands   Install samba  $ sudo apt-get install samba  Add myuser to the samba  $ sudo smbpasswd -a myuser  Export the drive I needed (no guest user)  $ sudo vi /etc/samba/smb.conf  to add the following export (no real option needed here)  [files] path = /media/music/files writeable = yes  save and Restart samba  $ sudo service smbd restart
