2. Open the UTILITY folder and run setup.exe.

Wget not running with cron

Pockets — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 17:29:31 +0000

Are getting a ‘wget: not found’ cron error, but the same wget command works from the command line?

Try using the entire path to the wget command. Find the path to wget by using the locate OR whereis from the command line. ( Example: locate wget or whereis wget )

Good luck

xml_parser_create error fix

If you come across this error, this means that php was not configured with this option.

To fix, recompile php removing the –disable all from the configure options.

After the make, you will need to make deinstall, then make install

FreeBSD Apache HTTP Accept Filter Error

admin — Tue, 11 Dec 2007 16:11:20 +0000

I recently took on the task of configuring a server with FREEBSD.

I ran into some errors so I will post some of the resolutions I found:

FreeBSD Apache HTTP Accept Filter Error

The resolution to the above problem is to a accf_http module, which function is to buffer incoming connections until a certain complete HTTP requests arrive, into FreeBSD kernel by using kernel linker:

kldload accf_http – This immediately activates this module

To always load enable HTTP Accept Filter FreeBSD kernel module (accf_http) during the boot, add the following line into /boot/defaults/loader.conf:

accf_http_load=”YES”
