Perl and Access developers wanted in the UK
Orgasmic Wines (http://www.orgasmicwines.com) is the biggest database of wines for sale over the net in Europe. We launched about 1 month ago and now require some extra developers to help expand our systems. Orgasmic Wines runs under Linux, with Apache, mod_perl and MySQL. The back-office uses an Access front end to interface with the MySQL database. We are based in London and Norwich. We are looking for permanent (preferably) or contract developers in these areas: Linux and Perl developers A solid knowledge of Linux, Perl (preferably mod_perl) and HTML are required to aid further development of the front and to automate business processes at the back end. Knowledge of Apache and MySQL are a plus. Access developers In-depth knowledge of Visual Basic for Access a must. You will be improving the front end used to administer the MySQL database, and working to iron out the administration processes in the back end. Knowledge of MySQL a plus. We are a small, friendly hard-working company - and we plan on making it big! So if you feel that you would fit in, please e-mail me with details on mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks Clinton Gormley
RE: Stas, please help
Stas - many many thanks for your help. greatly appreciated - i was really panicking at the time. In the end, I found that if I set CC=the original gcc binary, then I could compile the pgcc binary correctly, and now I have a working version of the compiler I originally wanted. Along these lines, I see in your guide that you say that perl and mod_perl have to be compiled with the same compiler. So if I am planning on recompiling Apache and mod_perl with pgcc to give me the two server setup, I will need to recompile Perl as well. I am doing this on a live server. What do I need to do to stop my current Perl setup working in case everything goes horribly wrong? (my fear is that recompiling perl will overwrite some libraries that the running system needs) Could I recompile perl in a new directory, then change a symlink over from one binary to the other and all would be OK? Or is it more complex than that. > -Original Message- > From: Stas Bekman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 03 November 1999 11:01 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: Stas, please help > > > > Another approach to find out what file to delete is to remake install > with /tmp prefix, so you would get a complete installed tree, > which can be > deleted by comparison with installed files on your filesystem... >
Memory problems
Why is it that my memory usage is going up and up, and shutting down the two major consumers of memory (Apache/mod_perl and MySQL) don't reclaim that memory? I am running RedHat 6, with Apache 1.3.9, mod_perl 1.21, and MySQL 3.23a. I restarted my web server a week ago, at which stage the running program were consuming about 200 meg of the available 1 Gig. I have stopped and started (not -HUP) Apache/mod_perl a few times this week, and stopped and started mysql a few times. Now my system is using 600 meg for the same processes, that is AFTER the buffers and cache have been removed. Current memory usage : total used free sharedbuffers cached Mem:971648 940672 30976 102836 199800 149288 -/+ buffers/cache: 591584 380064 Swap: 136512 1592 134920 Any ideas how I can reclaim this vanished memory without rebooting the system? Thanks Clint
