Really exiting times ahead: Microsoft .Net on Linux.
It’s not fully ready yet, but to get an idea to learn more about running OpenShift Enterprise 3 and a .NET application based on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux container, here are a few links to get started:
I wish that the demo repository at https://github.com/munchee13/snoopalicious.git and the rhosepaas.com domain were accessible (:
There are other alternatives too, but OpenShift (RedHat) and Microsoft working together is really exiting news to me.
If you’re on other distros, here are some more links:
And of course there has been Mono for a while, which is a different implementation of .NET:
Hopefully this will have search results soon: dnvm opensuse tumbleweed.

A while ago, I got this error:
Accessing the Software Management Failed
System management is locked by the application with pid 17730 (/usr/lib/YaST2/bin/y2base).
Close this application before trying again.
Would you like to abort or try again?
[Retry] [Abort]
What happened is that a terminal session that had YaST open got disconnected (don’t you love WiFi) while checking for updates.
I tried to re-login and re-check for updates and got this error.
Looking for process 17730 indeed revealed it was YaST:
snap:~ # ps 17730
PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND
17730 pts/0 Sl+ 0:11 /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/y2base online_update ncurses
A simple kill would get rid of that process:
sudo kill 17730

The zypper dup has installed MariaDB; now I need to figure out which dependency did this, as I’m not happy with the update message:
Message from package mariadb:
You just installed MySQL server for the first time.
You can start it using:
rcmysql start
During first start empty database will be created for your automatically.
PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MariaDB root USER !
To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands:
'/usr/bin/mysqladmin' -u root password 'new-password'
'/usr/bin/mysqladmin' -u root -h misibook password 'new-password'
Alternatively you can run:
'/usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation'
which will also give you the option of removing the test
databases and anonymous user created by default. This is
strongly recommended for production servers.

In case I get something similar to this again:

I have been noticing this for last few days but I thought systemd update should solve this (bug report was raised against systemd)
I updated system today (I have not given it a reboot yet) and I still see those logs.
Rebooting fixed this issue.
But I’m not sure about the cause.

After reading Converting Hg repositories to Git directed me into reading Bitbucket: Converting Hg repositories to Git I hoped moving my Mercurial repository on BitBucket to a Git repository would be something like following the steps.
It wasn’t.
First of all, hg-git on a Windows system requires Python or TortoiseHg. Neither of these I wanted to install for a one-off conversion.
So I took a throw-away Linux VM, and did the steps below. But let me first explain why.
Motivation
My motivation for moving away from BitBucket to GitHub, especially for projects containing markdown documentation.
When writing documentation in Markdown, being able to in-line reference pictures or have relative-references to other documents. This works perfectly in local Markdown tools (like MarkdownPad 2 or LightPaper).

Now that github stopped showing my README.rst as reStructuredText here is the htmlpreview link of the pandoc rendered reStructuredText:
revue: getting Tumbleweed on it.
It is about installing and configuring Tumbleweed which is a tad bit more frustrating than I hoped for.
In practice unixoids aren’t as heavenly as many geeks pretend them to be.
I got the htmlpreview solution via css – How to see an html page on github as a normal rendered html page to see preview in browser, without downloading? – Stack Overflow.
I might try the github pages in the future.
Sourcecode of htmlpreview is at htmlpreview/htmlpreview.github.com.

Even if you think you are familiar with something, it pays to keep your knowledge current.
I’ve been always struggling with the crontab syntax. It’s flexible, but for most cases overly complex, for instance I still thought I needed “0 0 * * 0” to run something weekly, which I needed.
So I am pretty sure there were no @monthly or @weekly in crontab last century.
Not so any more, and if I’d had the crontab documentation more often, I had known about the crontab shortcuts @reboot, @yearly, @annually, @monthly, @weekly, @daily, @midnight and @hourly many years ago: Read the rest of this entry »

So I remember for the next time:
zypper install ruby
zypper install ruby-devel
zypper install gcc
zypper install gcc-c++
If you don’t install all these, them the gem will fail with errors like this: Read the rest of this entry »
