Hi, Is there a cross-platform compliant way of finding out the path to the main executables of OpenSSL and GnuPG? Obviously this would be null if the software was not installed or detected. ...
It seems that Rails and Django can both start up the server binding to an IP, either 0.0.0.0, 127.0.0.1, or 192.168.1.2 <-- the last one is my local IP are there other choices? It seems that 0.0.0.0 and 192.168.1.2 can let a Virtual PC on the same machine access this website, while 127.0.0.1 cannot. However, if it is just the same ...
I am going to be moving all my websites to a Windows Web Server 2008 R2 machine. I have installed it in a virtual machine to test that my websites work with it. I have noticied that there is a program called Web Platform Installer. I have used it to install a few sites but I was just thinking is it a security risk using this? Would it b...
Is there an easy way to fire up a web browser for a folder? eg. I am in a folder that contains a website (index.html and other files) and I want to browse the site through a browser. Is there a gem that I just launch to make this folder browsable? In this way I don't have to install nginx just for a specific folder. And when you insta...
Is there a way to execute the backend code (ruby) in the web browser instead in a web application (rails)? Cause I wonder why all the code should be executed in the server, isn't it bad architecture. It's like the same concept of SVN, it is very dependent of the server, rather than having a more distributed architecture like Git, every...
Is there a way to put the terminal on the web browser instead, so I just fire up localhost:80 and then I'll have a terminal on it that I can use and whatever I execute it will execute on my local web server? And the outputs I want to be displayed on the web browser too, just like a normal Terminal. I'm using Ruby on Mac OS X/Ubuntu. ...

When I list the processes running on my server, no java processes are listed, but only webservd processes (controlled by Sun WebServer). How do I use jmap with Sun WebServer 6.1 servers? I don't have access to the jvm's pid.... The ...
The questions I have regarding load balancing are: Why exactly would you want to load balance web servers instead of upgrading to a new server? Is it common practice to have a load balanced setup whether it's for web servers or sql servers? Are there any disadvantages to load balancing? How is user information maintained across both ...

I think if you have setTimeout=1 then the node server will be unavailable for all requests in 1 second since it's event-based, non-threaded web server (correct me if I'm wrong). I've heard that Nginx is also an event-based web server. Doesn't that mean that if I have sleep 1 then it would be halted for all requests in 1 second? ...
What is the recommended server layout for a production Rails application that is expected to receive medium (not heavy, but not light either) traffic? I'm thinking of a setup running Apache and Passenger (mod_rails). How many application servers, web servers, and database servers make sense? How should they be set up to provide redundanc...

Then, install and configure a web server capable of hosting JavaServer Pages and Servlets. I would like to create a small web site with dynamic content being pull...

Hello, sorry if this question is vague, but I dont know ehere the problem is.
