Background
From the Global Educational Network for Satellite Operations (GENSO) web site:
GENSO aims to increase the return from educational space missions by forming a worldwide network of ground stations and spacecraft which can interact via a software standard. This will fundamentally change the way that these missions are managed, dramatically increasing the level of access to orbital educational spacecraft.
At Black Pepper we have a history of carrying out n-Tier Flex/Java developments using continous integration with the following tools and libraries:
We are about to move into the Mobile Computing arena with the Google Android phone as one of our target platforms. To aid this, I am developing a CI environment using all of the above tools.
This blog is the first of a series which will show how such an environment can be built and used.
We are pleased to announce that we have released an Open Source project called ShadowTail to the world at large.
Shadowtail is a Java/Spring framework for gathering numerical data (statistics) about a Java application, and writing the data to files. It is particularly useful as a source of data to feed Orca, the free tool for plotting textual data onto a directory on a Web server.
Why would you want to use Shadowtail?
Shadowtail helps you to monitor your software application or service by logging application and application container data over time. The data format is suitable for plotting or for analysis.
I wanted to move my /var/lib/mysql directory to /data/mysql (a new partition). So I copied copied them and made the appropriate change in /etc/my.cnf. On restarting mysql with /etc/init.d/mysql start, I got a failure.
On looking in the /var/log/messages file, I found:
