MT Background Processing Limitations
MT Background Processing Limitations
09/07/2004 08:30 AMOne of the cool new things in Movable Type 3.x is that it forks
processes to do stuff in the background. For instance, if you save an
entry, you don't have to wait for it to rebuild. MT runs the rebuild
process in the background, and the entry quietly rebuilds within 30
seconds or so of you saving the entry and returning to the menu
screen.
However, this morning I was mass deleting 60+ comment spams
(another great new feature: search for comments by IP). MT 3.x is
automatically rebuilds the entry when you delete a comment (great
improvement, BTW), so 60+ entries were rebuilding at the same time in
the background.
Now, we all know that MT isn't terribly efficient with the database
calls (doesn't have to be when it's write-one, read-many), so the
database must have been getting hammered while these entries were
rebuilding.
I made a change to another entry, tried to save it, and got
this:
Got an error: Bad ObjectDriver config: Connection error:
User [removed]@localhost has already more than 'max_user_connections'
active connections
A small price to pay for background processing, but they probably
should have trapped the error. Now I'm left wondering how many of my
entries actually rebuilt, and how many died in process due to this
error. Since they were being rebuilt in the background and thus
wouldn't display an errror, I may never know.
The solution: Rebuild All Files. My hosting company must hate
me.

news. It seems that the professional guidance I reported last week may
not have been correct after all. There really are some noobies out
there who want to learn a little something about the CLI. At least,
there is a new book for them. It's from O'Reilly. It's called the
"Linux Pocket Guide" by Daniel Barrett. O'Reilly describes it as "a
useful alternative for new and experienced Linux users who need a
quick and handy means to look up Linux commands." Imagine that, and
for normal users to boot. Wish I had thought of something like that
and proposed it to a publisher.

let users do a background check on
themselves. You assume that someone will know if they're lying on
their resume, but the point is (similar to doing a credit check on
yourself) to get an idea of what potential employers will see on your

worry! This article will show you how to create a custom DTD that will
add those custom attributes, and will also show you how to validate
documents that use those new attributes.

06/05/2005 11:24 PMYour web page uses non-standard elements, so, following the advice of

document still validates. Not so fast, says the W3C's Quality
Assurance team, who argue that crafting a custom DTD for the sole
purpose of validation is a mistake ... and then tell when it is the
right thing to do. By the way, we are pleased to have the W3C QA

Dare Obasanjo’s take, which is
pretty well the Microsoft party line (not that Dare’s always a
party-line guy): the Office software and its document formats are
winners because they allow the use of custom schemas for office
documents. That’s more important, they say, than the dodgy
licensing terms and the missing pieces. I used to believe that custom
schemas for office documents were generally a good idea, but I no
longer do. Here’s why...

Custom SiteSearchers
07/14/2002 01:19 PMAnil Dash writes in to let us know that Sun's Java Search has a
customized interface to Google. They join Cisco, Redhat, BBCi, the
Apple Developer Connection and Earthlink in taking advantage of
Google's hosted SiteSearch program. Also, Yahoo!, Alexa (which has
some very nifty screenshots and collaborative filtering) and Netscape
use Custom WebSearch to provide customized views of Google searches.
According to Google, the results "are available via HTTP and can be
formatted in XML or Google's proprietary protocol." So I suspect the
server simply makes a call to Google's XML feed and reformats the
results. This is an interesting alternative to simply handing users
off to the Google site. In other news, thanks to a note from mpt, I've
added a link to Google SiteSearch for this site so you can search just

David Pescovitz:

A couple months ago, I
posted about the Minnesota Association of
Rogue Taxidermists. One of the members, Sarina Brewer, is a taxidermy
artist with a wonderful sense of the curious and surreal. Her
exquisitely executed "gaffs" (fakes) range from various siamese
siblings to winged cats to enchanting renderings of the classic Feejee
Mermaid. And her prices are quite reasonable.
From Sarina's bio:
Her lifelong obsession with biology often focused on
genetic mutations. Study of these deviations of nature eventually led
to the the discovery of circus sideshows and "freaks." This influence,
as well as a slightly warped sense of humor, manifest themselves in
her strange cryptozoological creations and each peculiar artifact she
creates. Now incorporating her past formal art education with her
passion for biology and the bizarre, you are invited to peruse the
culmination of nearly three decades of the study of art and the
natural sciences in her eccentric works.

08/05/2004 03:28 AMOne Web browser feature that is growing in popularity is the ability
to open different tabs, or sub-pages, within the same browser window.
Using tabs to separate multiple pages keeps the desktop tidy, while
browsing multiple sites. Several third party Web browsers offer this
facility on Windows and other platforms, and if you're like me, you'll
find it an addictive way to surf. Many browsers, either by default or
through plug-ins, also provide a quick way to perform Web searches
without having to go directly to a search engine. Wouldn't it be great
to be able to write your own browser that could do all this, and also
be able to fine-tune it and adjust it to exactly suit your needs?

03/11/2003 01:22 AMWell i'm pleased to say that i've just learned to write my first PHP

processing and spits out the results. The latest php manual has an
extensive
Extending PHP
section which is pretty good.
I've never had the time to learn how to write PHP extensions before
this. The only free time i have to learn this is at home, where i
don't have a Linux box, but i do have VC++. It's really really painful
because i haven't coded in C for about 2 years, but you don't forget
your roots.
I've been saying for years that we can port ADOdb to C if we really need the
speed. Now i can do it, if we are all willing to endure constant bugs
for a couple of months. Might even drive me crazy, C is no longer easy
for me (err, when was it ever easy...).
Now that i'm in the mood, how do i write a cross-platform extension?
