Google Safe Browsing API

Google Safe Browsing API  lets your client applications download hashed versions of the Safe Browsing lists for storage in a local database. URLs can then be checked locally.

How to Find and kill a process in Linux

For example, to show all the process IDs of mysql-workbench:  $ ps -A | grep [m]ysql-workbench | awk '{print $1}' The sample outpout: 12974 12982 The awk gives you the first field of each line, which is the PID. The grep filters that based on your search string. [m]ysql-workbench is a trick that applies regex. It will then catch all other mysql-workbench processes but excluding grep itself.  If you use "grep mysql-workbench" directly, the process of grep itself will be caught too. Since [m]ysql-workbench != mysql-workbench, the process of grep will be excluded. To kill them in one line: $ kill $(ps -A | grep [m]ysql-workbench | awk '{print $1}')  (more reliable) The $(x) is to execute x then put its output on the command line. So you end up with a command like "kill 12974 12982". Or even simpler : $ kill $( ps - A | awk '/[m]ysql-workbench/ {print $1}' )

How to solve: Form submit does not trigger action method on JSF commandlink or commandbutton

First, make sure those commandlink or commandbutton is inside the <h:form> and </h:form> If still not woking, check whether you have "rendered" or "disabled" attribute for that component and your bean is request scope. You should change it from request scope to view scope. This is because if your bean is request scope, your "rendered" or "disabled" attributes are evaluated in different condition during processing the form submit from during displaying the form. JSF won't invoke the command if "rendered" or "disabled" attribute evaluates as "false".

How to fix MySQL Warning: Using a password on the command line interface can be insecure

The mysql_config_editor utility (available as of MySQL 5.6.6) enables you to store authentication credentials in an encrypted login file named .mylogin.cnf. The file location is the %APPDATA%\MySQL directory on Windows and the current user's home directory on non-Windows systems. The file can be read later by MySQL client programs to obtain authentication credentials for connecting to MySQL Server. mysql_config_editor set --login-path=local --host=localhost --user=username --password Then you can use in your shell script: mysql --login-path=local  instead of: mysql -u username -p pass  You need to put -- login-path as the first parameter , or else you will get something similar to "unknown variable 'login-path=local'" SET shell> mysql_config_editor set --login-path=local          \ --host=localhost --user=localuser --password Enter password: enter password "localpass" here shell> mysql_config_editor set --login-path=remote

How to avoid corrupted binlogs on MySQL

To avoid corrupted binlogs on the MySQL, enabling sync_binlog=1 on MySQL helps in most cases. sync_binlog=1 will synchronize the binary log to disk after every commit. sync_binlog makes MySQL perform on fsync on the binary log in addition to the fsync by InnoDB. As a reminder, it has some cost impact as it will synchronize the write-to-binary log on disk after every commit. On the other hand, sync_binlog=1 overhead can be very minimal or negligible if the disk subsystem is SSD along with battery-backed cache (BBU). You can read more about this here in the  manual. sync_binlog is a dynamic option that you can enable on the fly. Here’s how: Shell 1 mysql - master > SET GLOBAL sync_binlog = 1 ; To make the change persistent across reboot, you can add this parameter in my.cnf.

SIGTERM vs. SIGKILL

The  SIGTERM  signal is a generic signal used to cause program termination. Unlike  SIGKILL , this signal can be blocked, handled, and ignored. It is the normal way to politely ask a program to terminate. The shell command  kill  generates  SIGTERM  by default. The  SIGKILL  signal is used to cause immediate program termination. It cannot be handled or ignored, and is therefore always fatal. It is also not possible to block this signal. This signal is usually generated only by explicit request. Since it cannot be handled, you should generate it only as a last resort, after first trying a less drastic method such as  C-c  or  SIGTERM . If a process does not respond to any other termination signals, sending it a  SIGKILL  signal will almost always cause it to go away. In fact, if  SIGKILL  fails to terminate a process, that by itself constitutes an operating system bug which you should report. The system will generate  SIGKILL  for a process itself under some unusual condit
