I'm finally about to make the jump from PHP's mysql driver to the newer mysqli one using the mysqli converter tool.

The tool is called by this command line:
php...

Thanks. I just ran it and it worked. Phew!

So in future, is there a way for me to type an entity in the forum w/o the forum changing it to the character? I thought the code tags might do it.

Ok, so would it be this:

sed 's/'/\\\'/g' test.sql > withslashes.sql
with one slash to escape the backslash and one to escape the &? do I need to escape it in the left part as well?
...

I'll clarify my question. I found it difficult to post because my searches included html entities and the forum software was translating them into characters. The apos was just meant to represent the...

I'm in the process of being forward-thinking and finally converting my site's db to UTF-8. I've already done the UTF-8 conversion (on a copy for testing) and now I want to go through and convert html...

CentOS

I'll give that a try. Digging further, will this work for the chown?

find /usr/local/apache/htdocs \! -user apache -print0 | xargs -0 chown apache:apache

My git post-update has the following lines in it to make sure the permissions are set right:

find /usr/local/apache/htdocs -type d -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 755
find /usr/local/apache/htdocs -type...

Thanks.

I added -v to the chown command but I'm not getting any output...perhaps because the script is run over ssh and there's !requiretty in the sudoer? I guess I could try piping the output into a file?
...

My git user has permission in sudoers to run a wrapper script to move files into my webroot.

Everything is working fine except for the chown line. After the script has run, the files ar still...

It finally finished. It was a handbrakeCLI command run as a user job by MythTV.

I'm pretty sure I had the answer to this months ago and have misplaced it. Needless to say I will bookmark it this time.

I have a background process that's been running way longer than usual. It...

I've got a new MythTV box at home and figured it would be a great opportunity to use it to do daily mirrors of my mysqlbackup directory (let's say /mysqlbackup/backups) and my website at...

the system perl was 5.8.0 the one I installed last night was 5.12

Not how I expected my weekend to go.

My redhat server previously had perl 5.8.0 installed on it. Downloading a mysql utility, it asked for that and I blindly installed it. Broke a whole bunch of...

Dropping the -print0 worked like a charm.

Thanks!

Runningfind /usr/local/apache/htdocs -name photos -print0 | xargs -i{} cp {} {}.php gave me the following:

cp: `/usr/local/apache/htdocs/academy/73/photos' and...

When I ran:

find /usr/local/apache/htdocs -name photos -print0 | xargs -I{} cp {} {}.php

I got a "xargs: invalid option -- I".

Looks like I have an older version of xargs. Off to upgrade! :)

I've been able to find all the extensionless files named photos using the command:

find /usr/local/apache/htdocs -name photos -print0

I need to copy those files to the name photos.php in their...

That's correct. I was running as root. I see from man sed that the -c switch should do the trick:

-c, --copy

use copy instead of rename when shuffling files in -i mode
...

No, nginx. Apparently the sed changing ownership issue can be fixes by adding the -c switch to the sed command.

After running that command, the last modified file date of every file on the server, .html files, jpgs, gifs, everything change to the time and date I ran the command. Files that did not contain the...

I found this search and replace method on another site:

find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i 's/find/replace/g'

It worked fine except for the fact that it changed ownership on all the files...

After pulling my hair out tonight, I realized that I can just head to a coffee shop tomorrow and SSH in from there to do the file edits. Still, the wait's killing me.
