MORE DETAIL IN NGINX ERROR LOGS · 2822 DAYS AGO BY SHANNON WYNTER



Where I’m working now we have a rather complicated internal structure to our
rather large web application and it’s sometime super hard to track down the
problem – especially if a request triggers an API call.

I’ve modified our frontend configuration to pass a X-Trace-ID and all our
logging/servers to include that trace id in any given request

	set $tid $pid-$msec-$remote_addr-$connection-$request_id;
	if ($http_x_trace_id) {
		set $tid $http_x_trace_id;
	}
 	proxy_set_header X-Trace-ID $tid;
	fastcgi_param HTTP_X_TRACE_ID $tid;


Except when it comes to error logs, if anything goes wrong with a proxied
request, we’re out of luck – well not any more :D

STARTSSL - FREE CERTIFICATE, NOT WORTH THE TIME · 3927 DAYS AGO BY SHANNON
WYNTER



So today I discovered that Karen at StartSSL has a confused definition of
“commercial in nature” and “financial transaction”

I attempted to grab a ssl certificate for one of my subdomains on one of my
servers so I could have an upcoming chrome plugin securely communicate with it.

In fact their website specifically highlights this feature: “The StartSSL™ Free
certificates are intended for web sites which require protection of privacy and
prevent eavesdropping.” – Sounds perfect doesn’t it.

According to their policy

> Class 1 certificates are limited to client and server
> certificates, whereas the later is restricted in its usage for
> non-commercial purpose only. Subscribers MUST upgrade to Class
> 2 or higher level for any domain and site of commercial nature,
> when using high-profile brands and names or if involved in
> obtaining or relaying sensitive information such as health
> records, financial details, personal information etc.

I should be good to go right?

This site clearly isn’t commercial in nature, nor is the domain I was attempting
to get the certificate for (flatus.fremnet.net) I have no intent to make money
off the chrome plugin or the data that’s being transferred.

I also have no intention of obtaining or relaying sensitive information such as
health records, financial details, personal information etc

Having a paypal donate button in the top right hand corner of a site doesn’t
make the site commercial, it’s giving others a chance to contribute to keeping
the information here online – some of it is quite useful. Hosting isn’t free,
it’s coming out of my pocket.

Having a paypal donate button indiciates that the financial transactions I do
conduct (however few and far between) clearly won’t be run over the StartSSL
free certificate as I already have a method that doesn’t involve them.

The kicker, I’ve had certificates from StartSSL before and this hasn’t been an
issue.

I’m an open source coder and tinkerer, almost everything I do is given away,
either under GPL or completely free without license or constraint.

BUKKIT/MINECRAFT PLUGINS · 4504 DAYS AGO BY SHANNON WYNTER



Well, it’s been an awfully long time since I made a post, but in order to help
those wandering Bukkit users that make their way here via Google looking for my
Bukkit plugins (as Bukkit have removed links to my plugins from their forums
because I refuse to change the way I run my website) I thought it might be time
for a new post

Bukkit – Wonderful system for adding plugins to the Minecraft server, great
community, a bit heavy handed on the moderation.

If you are after my plugins including:

 * BedHome
 * Bedrock
 * SignLift

You will find them here: http://bukkit.fremnet.net/

But be warned, I give you the difficult^ choice of two download links to click
on.
One gives me pennies for every click via the adf.ly service (just think of it as
a way to contribute for free) while the other gives you a perfectly add free
link to paste into wget or download directly

^ Bukkit moderator mbaxter thinks you are incapable of making an informed
decision so has chosen to make your life less confusing by removing this one
choice from the bukkit forums.

It seems policy there is any link that contains a link that contains a link to a
page that has a link to adf.ly supported downloads is “direct(ing) users through
adfly”. So here I make it clear, I direct you to chose to download through
either an adf.ly supported link or a direct link.

Hell I even give you the option of donating real money through paypal

MEH, HARD DISK CRASH · 4892 DAYS AGO BY SHANNON WYNTER



Sorry for the recent downtime, my 74 gig raptor drive died and while I have
pretty recent backups I’ve had to recover some stuff through the use of google
cache so forgive the out of order posts and missing bits (if I missed any)

I still have to go through all the sub-domains and other sites I host to make
sure everything functions (especially chumby things)

It’s late now, so this isn’t a long post, I have so many more things to sort out
(this is more than a webserver)

A LONG AWAITED: SOLAR UPDATED · 5026 DAYS AGO BY SHANNON WYNTER



Sorry it’s taken so long to update you all on my solar install.

The installers came back out and replaced my indoor in box inverter with an
outdoor model and wired it up with two inputs.



Sexy isn’t it?

While they were here they found a faulty connector on the roof, which was
killing one string from my array, and fixed it.

The install isn’t as tidy as I would have liked, but it works now.

I’ve created and released my first cpan module Device::Inverter::Aurora and
stopped using the C program (not that there was anything wrong with the C
program, this just suits my application better)

And, I’ve created a Google AppEngine application to produce and display graphs
(for laughs I also use html5’s canvas and lots of javascript) –
http://arraywatch.appspot.com/ – I love how you can see the lensing effect the
edges of clouds have as they pass over the roof

Since the new meter was installed at the beginning of October I have exported
547kWH to the grid and imported only 167 at night (approx 10.13kw/day export)

The array is working well, not perfectly – it could really use some tilt – but
since it’s been fixed we’ve had fairly bleh weather so I really haven’t been
able to see what it’s peak is yet.
