Install Maven 3.1.1 on Ubuntu 13.10

AppEngine requires Maven 3.1 while ubuntu 13.10 is stuck at 3.0.4

$ mvn -v
Apache Maven 3.0.4
Maven home: /usr/share/maven

'which mvn' gives '/usr/bin/mvn'
Fortunately /usr/local/bin is before in the path variable and this is where I put all the symlink I need

  • Download the latest maven from http://maven.apache.org/download.cgi
  • I installed it here /opt/apps/apache-maven-3.1.1/bin
  • Add a symlink sudo ln -s '/mnt/ssd/apps/apache-maven-3.1.1/bin/mvn' /usr/local/bin/mvn
  • I add to start a new console to check mvn version on the command line
$ mvn -v
Apache Maven 3.1.1 (0728685237757ffbf44136acec0402957f723d9a; 2013-09-17 17:22:22+0200)

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
