Make JUnit Testing Java Apps Easy with Grester
by idaashley
As a developer, you run tests multiple times per day, but how badly would they break if the sources had to change? Now you can quickly find out with Grester, an Apache Maven wrapper around Jester. Grester alleviates the burden of dealing with the annoyances of constructing a Java classpath from project dependencies so you can test your execution points more easily, using Jester.

L’absence sous Apache d’un modrails comme il existe un modphp y était certainement pour beaucoup, jusqu’à la sortie hier de Passenger, aussi appelé modrails.

[Tutos] Administration de serveurs dédiés - Blog Alsacréations : XHTML, CSS et Standards web
by camel
& 3 others
Un ensemble de nouveaux tutoriels a été mis en ligne cette semaine pour inaugurer une nouvelle thématique : L'administration de serveurs dédiés. En effet, les hébergements dédiés sont devenus monnaie courante, et il est fréquent de devoir plonger les mains dans le cambouis.
Ces tutoriels ont pour but de servir de feuille de route à la mise en place d'un serveur web sous Apache assorti de PHP et MySQL, ainsi que de services mail et ftp. Des conseils en matière de monitoring, de sauvegarde et de sécurité complètent le tour d'horizon.
Deux d'entre eux abordent également de façon rapide l'installation du webmail Roundcube et du panel de gestion DTC pour contrôler plus efficacement les services évoqués précédemment dans le cas d'un hébergement multi-domaines.

Logmonster FAQ - The Network People, Inc.
by camel
Typical Scenario: You have a web server that serves your domain. You write a simple script to restart apache each night and pipe the logs off to your analyzer. It works.
ISP/Hosting Scenario: Each server hosts many domains. You may also have load balanced servers (multiple machines) serving each domain. A tool like this is necessary to:
1. collect all the log files from each server
2. split the logs based on the virtual host(s)
3. discard invalid entries (phishing, referrer spam, etc)
4. sort them into chronological order
5. feed logs into analyzer
6. do something with the raw logs (compress, save to vhost dir, etc)

Advanced Logging Techniques With Apache
by camel
Logs in Apache are more configurable than most people realize. Not only can you organize the fields in your logs, but you can also create formats and layouts. Access logs can be split and divided up to make them easier to process by reporting specific items or ignoring those items that have no relevance.

Loadbalanced High-Availability Apache Cluster Using Ultramonkey
by camel
how to set up a two-node Apache web server cluster that provides high-availability. In front of the Apache cluster we create a load balancer that splits up incoming requests between the two Apache nodes. Because we do not want the load balancer to become another "Single Point Of Failure", we must provide high-availability for the load balancer, too. Therefore our load balancer will in fact consist out of two load balancer nodes that monitor each other using heartbeat, and if one load balancer fails, the other takes over silently.

Use Server Cache Control to Improve Performance - apache web server settings for optimized caching with configuration files
by korbinus
& 3 others
Caching is the temporary storage of frequently accessed data in higher speed media (typically SRAM or RAM) for more efficient retrieval. Web caching stores frequently used objects closer to the client through browser, proxy, or server caches. By storing "fresh" objects closer to your users, you avoid round trips to the origin server, reducing bandwidth consumption, server load, and most importantly, latency. This article shows how to configure your Apache server for more efficient caching to save bandwidth and improve performance.
Caching is not just for static sites, even dynamic sites can benefit from caching. Graphics and multimedia typically don't change as frequently as (X)HTML files. Graphics that seldom change like logos, headers, and navigation can be given longer expiration times while resources that change more frequently like XHTML and XML files can be given shorter expiration times. By designing your site with caching in mind, you can target different classes of resources to give them different expiration times with only a few lines of code.
