useradd - setting up accounts

lastlog (lists all the users)
useradd -d/home/newdir newdir (makeit <=8 char)
passwd newdir

create a publichtml and set permissions

cd /home
mkdir /newdir 
chmod 711 /home/newdir
cd /home/newdir
mkdir public_html
chmod ugo+rx -R public_html

apache etc/httpd.conf setup

This is probably already done. Do this maybe if new install of server

<IfModule mod_userdir.c>
	#
	# UserDir is disabled by default since it can confirm the presence
	# of a username on the system (depending on home directory
	# permissions).
	#
	#UserDir disable

	#
	# To enable requests to /~user/ to serve the user's public_html
	# directory, remove the "UserDir disable" line above, and uncomment
	# the following line instead:
	#
	UserDir public_html

</IfModule>

#
# Control access to UserDir directories.  The following is an example
# for a site where these directories are restricted to read-only.
#
<Directory /home/*/public_html>

</Directory>

in /etc/apache2/sites-available create a file with the username

 # Other directives here
</VirtualHost>

cd /etc/apache2/sites-enabled

doku

to delete junk archive files

# find /home/sitebuil/public_html/doku/data/attic/ -type f -print0 | xargs -0r rm -f

Ubuntu 10.04 java

Since $ sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner" DOESN'T WORK

If you need the real Sun JRE you can:

goto dir like /usr/local/src or wherever you put stuff you install that's not apt-get
download java-jre with duinsoft's install script:
gunzip it
run the install script
find out whereis (I found it got installed to /opt/java/32/jre1.7.0_09/bin/java)
link to it from /usr/local/bin
restart the shell so your computer can find it

# cd usr/local/src
# lynx http://www.duinsoft.nl/pkg/pool/all/update-sun-jre.bin
# gunzip update-sun-jre.bin.gz
# sh update-sun-jre.bin
# cd /usr/local/bin
# ln -s /opt/java/32/jre1.7.0_09/bin/java

php include directory

is where to put code that you want to run from multiple different directories. However it can't seem to be set in php.ini. The default is usr/share/php. In order to include files from /usr/local/share/php5/ I put a link in /usr/share/php/ to /usr/local/share/php5/chromephp/ChromePhp.php

console log with ChromePhp.php

now included in /usr/share/php files to see in console whatever you put in ChromePhp::log('hello world'); BTW tutn php consol logging on in top right of browser (blue is on) <syntaxhighlight lang="php"> <?php include 'ChromePhp.php'; ChromePhp::log('hello world'); </syntaxhighlight>

php error reporting to browser

/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini links to development version that logs errors to browser.

allowing www-data user to write to directory

usermod -a -G group1,group2 username

Where username is the user you want to modify and group1 and group2 are the new groups you want that user to join. Running the command without the -a argument will remove that user from all groups except group1 and group2.

groups sitebuil
members cando
chgrp -Rv cando /home/pathbost/public_html/ystill

cron tutorial another

Re: Where is crontab stored?

Root-level crontab should be in /etc/crontab.

Root-level anacron and periodics should be in /etc/cron*

User-level crontabs should be in /var/spool/cron/crontabs - they are listed by user, pathbost isactually a chrontab

select-editor

installing and testing a crontab

installing

even after you change it by yourself you can install it by running as root

sudo crontab -u pathbost /var/spool/cron/crontabs/pathbost

testing

* * * * * /bin/echo " pathGZoobar $(date) " >> /usr/local/docs/testcron.txt

will append this every minute to testcron.txt

 pathGZoobar Thu Jan  3 14:15:01 EST 2013

You can check the logs to see if the crontab got installed/executed by running as root

sudo tail /var/log/syslog

vi with crontab 101

su to user then 'crontab -e'
'i' to insert text
'esc :wq to save change, and quit
- then crontab is installed
'esc :q!' exits without saving (or installing)
you can kill your crontab with crontab -r
you can list the installed crontab with crontab -l

backup to s3

Backups have a 30 day life on s3 and a 21 day life in /var/backups/backup backup_to_S3 code

moving databases

copies as of 12/2012 of databases are on windows machine /documents/sites/mysqldumps

In phpmyadmin of the target mnachine create a user with same nae as source user and put the source ip as host. Create the (empty)databases on the target

root@server1 /var/backups# mysql -u root -p  -h localhost pathbost_assess < pathbost_assess.sql
root@10.194.101.169: home$  mysqldump -utim -pnji9ol pathbost_h409 | mysql -h198.23.156.78 -utim -pnji9ol pathbost_h409
mysqldump -utim -pnji9ol pathbost_poets | mysql -h198.23.156.78 -utim -pnji9ol pathbost_poets

To copy directories from old vps to new
