(more…)I am not sure if there were NVIDIA drivers when I installed Ubuntu 16.01 on a machine with Intel processor and GTX 1060 graphic card, but at least I saw this in the terminal (it is not clear what actually FAILED):
If Android support is enabled in MS VS2015, it installs Android SDK without Google Play Services and I did not find an option in SDK Manager that installs them. When I started “C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\SDK Manager.exe” with admin privileges, it automatically offered to install some 9 packages:
MSI GeForce GTX 1060 3GB graphic card does not trigger its boost state when its GPU is loaded at 99-100% with NiceHash miner. Compare the values in the green rectangles:
Today I got 504 Gateway Timeout error while updating my Joomla website and solved this issue by adding “fastcgi_read_timeout 300” into Nginx virtual host:
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/www-shar.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include fastcgi.conf;
fastcgi_read_timeout 300;
}
I already had request_terminate_timeout option set to 300s in the pool configuration file:
; The timeout for serving a single request after which the worker process will ; be killed. This option should be used when the 'max_execution_time' ini option ; does not stop script execution for some reason. A value of '0' means 'off'. ; Available units: s(econds)(default), m(inutes), h(ours), or d(ays) ; Default Value: 0 request_terminate_timeout = 300s
In Joomla 3.8.2 (and probably 3.8) or later to remove ID from URL you go to System->Global Configuration->Articles->Integration page, select Modern URL Routing and then select Remove IDs from URLs:
Today I read that Postfix can be better than sendmail and found a great Russian article on how to configure Postfix to work with Yandex.ru relay (Yandex.ru is some kind of Russian Google). The only notice I would give is that in a Docker container I need also install rsyslog, otherwise /var/log/mail.log file is not created:
apt install rsyslog
After doing all the steps described in this Russian manual I was able to send email to Yandex.ru and GMail accounts, but GMail landed all the emails to its spam folder. My first idea was that it is because I did not configure ‘from address’ correctly, so I had the following in /var/log/mail.log, and also there was a message ‘Cannot assign requested address‘:
Oct 27 11:36:19 0675c97b78aa postfix/pickup[1210]: 8C7ECE5B72: uid=0 from=<root> Oct 27 11:36:19 0675c97b78aa postfix/cleanup[10786]: 8C7ECE5B72: message-id=<20171027113619.8C7ECE5B72@0675c97b78aa.localdomain> Oct 27 11:36:19 0675c97b78aa postfix/qmgr[1211]: 8C7ECE5B72: from=<root@0675c97b78aa.localdomain>, size=405, nrcpt=2 (queue active) Oct 27 11:36:19 0675c97b78aa postfix/smtp[10788]: connect to gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com[2a00:1450:400c:c09::1b]:25: Cannot assign requested address ...
Previously I published post How I configured sendmail for PHP on Ubuntu Server 12.04 describing how to configure sendmail to use custom SMTP server. But after switching to Ubuntu 16.04 VPS my first idea was that I can use sendmail in its default configuration, but this idea was wrong, because while sendmail worked well with yandex.ru (some Russian mail server), for example, it did not work with GMail, because GMail did not accept the mail reporting ‘DSN: Service unavailable.‘ in /var/log/mail.log, see my post on Ubuntu Forum for more information. Now my second idea is that using GMail as sendmail relay will prevent GMail from rejecting my mail. Below I provided a short instruction on how to realize this successful idea.
apt-get install sendmail mailutils
mailutils allows to run mail command.
