I also had problems using log in static block and it’s also fixed. Today I had some serious problems with my Intellij installation. It all started after updating to the current latest patch 2020.3.2 and I could no longer build my project inside Intellij. I had no problem building it from the command line with maven but in the ide, it refused to build. https://merikan.com/2020/10/speed-up-your-testcontainers-tests/ Fri, 09 Oct 2020 18:47:53 +0200 https://merikan.com/2020/10/speed-up-your-testcontainers-tests/ This is the second part of a two part series about Testcontainers. In this part I will among other things show you some tricks to get your Testcontainers start much faster. Intro In the previous blog post, Getting Started with Testcontainers, I described what the Testcontainers framework is and how to get started using it in your project. After using Testcontainers for a long time I learned that there are things that need to be adjusted to make it even better and faster. https://merikan.com/2020/10/getting-started-with-testcontainers/ Fri, 09 Oct 2020 18:46:18 +0200 https://merikan.com/2020/10/getting-started-with-testcontainers/ This is the first part of a two-part series about Testcontainers. In this first part I will explain what it is, what problems it tries to solve, how it works and finally how you can use it in your own projects. In the second part we will see if we can reduce startup time for our Testcontainers. Introduction Earlier this spring I held a skills meeting for my colleagues that was about JUnit 5 and Testcontainers. https://merikan.com/2019/05/troubleshooting-hyperswitch/ Sun, 26 May 2019 16:17:59 +0200 https://merikan.com/2019/05/troubleshooting-hyperswitch/ update 20190625: Sometimes the login console prevents hyperswitch to work properly, see below. Intro For many years I’ve been using an excellent little gem called Hyperswitch. From time to time I have had problems with it, suddenly it just stopped working and I have never found out what the reason really was. I have Googled for it and tried all sorts of things but nothing has worked and suddenly it has started to work again. https://merikan.com/2019/05/how-to-sign-git-commits/ Wed, 22 May 2019 19:30:48 +0200 https://merikan.com/2019/05/how-to-sign-git-commits/ Installation To be able to sign our git commits on Macos we have to install gnupg and pinentry-mac. When installing gnupg a pinentry is provided but we want to use a pinentry that is specific för MacOS so we can use the Key-chain to store our Passphrase. First install gnupg, later on we will install pinentry-mac too. $ brew install gnupg Generate a key First we have to generate a key that we will use. https://merikan.com/2019/04/upgrade-to-bash-5-in-macos/ Wed, 10 Apr 2019 14:13:13 +0200 https://merikan.com/2019/04/upgrade-to-bash-5-in-macos/ I am a long time user of Zsh but I also use Bash now and then but mostly when running bash scripts. The other day when upgrading SdkMan it complained that I was using an old version of bash. I have to admit that I have used the default bash installation in MacOS. What I didn’t know was that Apple will not update Bash, because the latest version is licensed under GPLv3, which Apple cannot use. https://merikan.com/2019/04/jvm-in-a-container/ Wed, 03 Apr 2019 16:45:26 +0200 https://merikan.com/2019/04/jvm-in-a-container/ 👉 Important Update 2022-07-08 A reader informed me that the reported memory size was incorrect. I know that the numbers were correct when I wrote the blog post so I had to check this out and see why it differs. It turned out that cgroup v2 was enabled in Docker engine 20.10 (also Docker Desktop for Mac v4.2.0). This means that docker no longer uses cgroups v1 and has switched to using cgroups v2, like all modern Linux distributions. https://merikan.com/2015/10/upgrade-crashplan-on-synology/ Sat, 03 Oct 2015 22:56:35 +0000 https://merikan.com/2015/10/upgrade-crashplan-on-synology/ #make CrashPlan log entry echo “I ${TIMESTAMP} Synology repairing upgrade in ${SCRIPT_HOME}” >> ${DLOG}  mv ${SCRIPT_HOME}/upgrade.log ${SCRIPT_HOME}/upgrade.log.old UPGRADE_VER=echo ${SCRIPT_HOME} | sed -r "s/^.*\/([0-9]+)\.[0-9]+/\1/" unzip -o ${OPTDIR}/upgrade/${UPGRADE_VER}.jar “.jar” -d ${OPTDIR}/lib/ unzip -o ${OPTDIR}/upgrade/${UPGRADE_VER}.jar “lang/” -d ${OPTDIR} mv ${SCRIPT_HOME}/upgrade.sh ${SCRIPT_HOME}/upgrade.sh.old exit 0 fi  #updates may also overwrite our native binaries [ -e ${OPTDIR}/bin/libffi.so.5 ] && cp -fp ${SYNOPKG_PKGDEST}/bin/libffi.so.5 ${OPTDIR}/lib [ -e ${OPTDIR}/bin/libjtux.so ] && cp -fp ${OPTDIR}/bin/libjtux.so ${OPTDIR}/ # for some reason only version 3. https://merikan.com/2015/08/move-a-git-repository-to-another-location./ Wed, 19 Aug 2015 20:52:16 +0000 https://merikan.com/2015/08/move-a-git-repository-to-another-location./ Clone the the repository git clone https://code.google.com/p/my_repo cd my_repo List all local and remote branches.

I have been waiting with the upgrade because I didn’t want to have problem with my computer so I figured I’ll wait for some bugfixes before upgrading. So last weekend I decided to take the jump and upgrade. The first thing I discovered was that HyperSwitch was not working as it should and I still have not found a solution to the problem. https://merikan.com/2014/02/regex-and-negative-lookbehind/ Wed, 19 Feb 2014 09:34:08 +0000 https://merikan.com/2014/02/regex-and-negative-lookbehind/ In my current project our application is built with Spring and we are using a couple of Spring profiles. Unfortunately we didn’t make them unique so if we deploy it with another application in the same application server we might get a name clash. We decided that we better try to use names that are specific for our application. So I started renaming all of our spring profiles by just adding the prefix apigw. https://merikan.com/2014/01/black-screen-when-starting-ubuntu/ Sun, 12 Jan 2014 15:59:16 +0000 https://merikan.com/2014/01/black-screen-when-starting-ubuntu/ Today I started up my Ubuntu laptop and the login screen was all black. I could see the cursor arrow but everything else was black. The laptop is dual boot with Windows and Ubuntu and I quite recently changed from Linux Mint to Ubuntu. A quick lookup with Uncle Google pointed me to this page, My computer boots to a black screen, what options do I have to fix it? If your system is dual boot. https://merikan.com/2013/08/eclipse-is-damaged-and-cant-be-opened/ Sat, 10 Aug 2013 16:41:07 +0000 https://merikan.com/2013/08/eclipse-is-damaged-and-cant-be-opened/ Yesterday I downloaded the latest Eclipse named Kepler to my Mac. I unzipped the package as usual and tried to launch it by clicking on the Eclipse file. I received the following error message: Open up a shell Cd yourself into the eclipse directory. Check the attributes of the directory Eclipse.app/ $ xattr Eclipse.app/ com.apple.quarantine Remove the ‘com.apple.quarantine’ attribute. $ xattr -d com. https://merikan.com/2013/07/no-sound-in-os-x-when-playing-youtube-videos-in-chrome/ Fri, 19 Jul 2013 07:14:00 +0000 https://merikan.com/2013/07/no-sound-in-os-x-when-playing-youtube-videos-in-chrome/ It have happened a couple of times that I suddenly don’t have any sound from my speakers when watching YouTube videos in Chrome. I don’t know how and when this happens but it is easy to fix. Just open a terminal and run “sudo killall coreaudiod”. I probably should investigate why this happens but I will do that on a rainy day. That’s it. https://merikan.com/2012/08/alldeles-f%C3%B6r-tyst-vid-datorn/ Sun, 12 Aug 2012 19:46:48 +0000 https://merikan.com/2012/08/alldeles-f%C3%B6r-tyst-vid-datorn/ Hmm, vad tyst det är när jag sitter vid datorn. Hade glömt att installera Spotify på min Linux box. Ett par klick så är det installerat och tystnaden bruten. Ge mig Timbuktu…. Spotify har tyvärr ingen skarp version av sin programvara utan den för Linux är en preview, som varit preview ganska länge men fungerar alldeles utmärkt 😉 Ett annat alternativ är att köra Spotify i Wine men det är inget jag känner för då de tuffa killarna kör native. https://merikan.com/2012/08/uppgradera-linux-mint/ Sun, 12 Aug 2012 19:26:35 +0000 https://merikan.com/2012/08/uppgradera-linux-mint/ Skriver detta inlägg som dokumentation till mig själv. För ett tag sedan uppgraderade jag Linux Mint från release 12 till 13. Folket på Linux Mint vill att man skall göra en “fresh uppgrade” vilket innebär att man tar backup på allt sitt data och alla program för att sedan installera över den gamla releasen. Efter att installationen är klar sås skall man läsa tillbaka data och program från backupen. Jag är van att göra en paket-uppgradering istället vilket innebär att man tar en backup (? https://merikan.com/2012/03/installera-google-chrome-i-linux-mint/ Sun, 18 Mar 2012 18:55:29 +0000 https://merikan.com/2012/03/installera-google-chrome-i-linux-mint/ Har precis installerat Linux Mint på min ena dator. Har kört Ubuntu i några år nu men kände att det var dags att byta. Hur som helst så finns inte Google Chrome med i repositoryt så det går inte att installera den från den vanliga software managern. Hur som helst så är det ganska enkelt att installera i Linux ändå. Gör bara följande. Öppna ett Terminal fönster. Kör följande kommandon:<br /> wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl. https://merikan.com/2012/03/subversion-och-inconsistent-line-ending-style/ Fri, 16 Mar 2012 15:20:36 +0000 https://merikan.com/2012/03/subversion-och-inconsistent-line-ending-style/ Ibland händer det att radslut i filer är olika beroende på vilka verktyg man har använt och i vilken miljö man skapat filen. I windows används CRLF och i Unix används CR. För att enkelt ställa om radslut kan man använda kommandona dos2unix och unix2dos. För att leta efter filer i en katalog och alla dess underkataloger och ändra radslut så kör man bara följande kommando. <br /> find . -type f \! https://merikan.com/2011/08/flytta-knapparna-maximera-minimera-och-st%C3%A4ng-fr%C3%A5n-v%C3%A4nster-till-h%C3%B6ger/ Sat, 06 Aug 2011 14:17:56 +0000 https://merikan.com/2011/08/flytta-knapparna-maximera-minimera-och-st%C3%A4ng-fr%C3%A5n-v%C3%A4nster-till-h%C3%B6ger/ I Ubunti 10.04 valde man att flytta knapparna i fönstrena från höger till vänster. Varför man valde detta kan alltid diskuteras men det var tydligen för att underlätta då vi i västvärlden läser från vänster till höger. Då man tyvärr är van vid att hitta knapparna uppe till höger så blir man förvirrad varje gång som man skall klicka på dem. Då jag använder windows på jobbet 8 timmar om dagen och där sitter de till höger så lär man nog inte i första taget vänja sig att hitta knapprna till vänster. https://merikan.com/2011/08/uppgradera-grub-legacy-till-2.0/ Sat, 06 Aug 2011 13:29:09 +0000 https://merikan.com/2011/08/uppgradera-grub-legacy-till-2.0/ Har kört Linux på min privata laptop i några år. Skall man vara riktigt petig så är det Ubuntu som är den distribution som jag använder. Har hela tiden följt med på uppgraderingarna som skett och jag måste säga att det har fungerat väldigt bra att uppgradera. Som bootloader används Grub som uppgraderas till version 2.0 i och med version 9.10 i Ubuntu. Ubuntu har dock valt att inte uppgradera booloadern automatiskt vid uppgradering av operativsystem utan detta måste göras manuellt. https://merikan.com/2011/02/today-i-enabled-2-step-verification-in-google-apps/ Tue, 15 Feb 2011 22:22:22 +0000 https://merikan.com/2011/02/today-i-enabled-2-step-verification-in-google-apps/ Today I enabled 2-step verification in Google Apps. This means that if you want to you can use 2 factor authentication when logging in to Google Apps services such as GMail. You can’t force your users to use 2-step verification, they must opt-in themselves. Anyway, I did opt-in with my account and downloaded the Google Authenticator to my Android that is used for generating codes. It all work well and now I’m using 2-factor authentication for my Google account. https://merikan.com/2011/02/added-a-second-monitor-to-my-laptop-with-ubuntu/ Tue, 15 Feb 2011 19:15:38 +0000 https://merikan.com/2011/02/added-a-second-monitor-to-my-laptop-with-ubuntu/ I decided to move my 21″ monitor from my desktop computer to my laptop that runs Ubuntu. Since I have a DVI interface on my monitor and a HDMI interface on my laptop I had to buy a adapter. I bought one at Clas Olson and it worked perfectly. Ok, now I had to switch my primary monitor so my external monitor holds the panels instead of the built in monitor that is the default monitor. https://merikan.com/2010/11/how-to-find-the-uptime/ Thu, 11 Nov 2010 08:35:19 +0000 https://merikan.com/2010/11/how-to-find-the-uptime/ Now and then I need to find out for how long the server has been running.

Didn’t I have warranty left on my old router? I couldn’t remember when I bought it so I had to search for my invoice. I know I bought it in an on-line store but didn’t remember which one and when. I found the invoice in my mailbox and it was InWarehouse and I bought it the 10th of June 2008. https://merikan.com/2010/06/having-big-trouble-with-my-broadband-router/ Sat, 12 Jun 2010 08:16:14 +0000 https://merikan.com/2010/06/having-big-trouble-with-my-broadband-router/ Please wait...<br /> The gateway is currently measuring your network connection.<br /> Accessing this web page might have an effect on the measurement.<br /> This page will refresh shortly.<br /> The last couple of days my broadband connection has gone up and down.

I flashed the device using an updated recovery image (read more). The process is simple, this is how I did it. First we need to download the radio image and the recovery image from HTC. After the files are downloaded it’s time start the update. This is a two step process, first we will install the radio image and then the recovery image. https://merikan.com/2009/05/im-now-using-my-google-apps-account-on-android/ Sun, 31 May 2009 19:34:30 +0000 https://merikan.com/2009/05/im-now-using-my-google-apps-account-on-android/ When I bought my Android phone 6 months ago I wasn’t able to use my Google Apps account for my own domain (merikan.com). The only account that worked was my GMail account, so I have been using this until today. I wasn’t so eager to switch since i have all my IM friends connected to my GMail account but now I have changed this so it was time to do a change on my phone to. https://merikan.com/2009/05/problem-med-flash-i-ubuntu/ Fri, 22 May 2009 20:06:07 +0000 https://merikan.com/2009/05/problem-med-flash-i-ubuntu/ Har haft lite trubbel med flash spelaren på min Ubuntu maskin. Vet att när jag satte upp den så valde jag en av tre flash spelare för Firefox. Kommer inte ihåg vilken jag valde men efter mycket dribblande i Firefox så gav jag upp. Ibland funkade det och ibland inte. Till slut hittade jag en lösning som fick det hela till att fungera.

Denna gången tänkte jag att jag skulle köpa en bärbar istället för stationär så jag slapp att sitta enbart i pc-rummet utan jag vill ju kunna förflytta mig lite. Jag visste inte vilket märke eller modell jag skulle köpa. Klart att man gärna skulle vilja ha en Mac Book men jag tycker de är alldeles för dyra så det får bli en vanlig pc istället. https://merikan.com/2009/05/wordpress-is-updated-to-the-latest-version/ Sat, 02 May 2009 10:37:38 +0000 https://merikan.com/2009/05/wordpress-is-updated-to-the-latest-version/ Hi folks I have updated this blog server to the latest version (wordpress mu 2.7.1). It all went well and this time I decided to use the wordpress built in updater. First I did a full backup of all folders and the wordpress database (just in case ;-)). Then all I had to do was to press the update button. Done!!! I’m impressed, kudos to all you wordpress developers. I also updated all plugins that was installed except for the LightBox 2 plugin. https://merikan.com/2009/04/themes-finally-reached-google-apps-mail/ Wed, 01 Apr 2009 07:24:20 +0000 https://merikan.com/2009/04/themes-finally-reached-google-apps-mail/ When logging in to my e-mail account at Google Apps today I found out that they now have integrated themes into the mail service.

Nedan ser ni ett exempel. https://merikan.com/2008/10/bloggen-uppdaterad/ Thu, 02 Oct 2008 00:35:50 +0000 https://merikan.com/2008/10/bloggen-uppdaterad/ Följande har hänt: Bloggen är uppdaterad till WordPress MU version 2.6.2.

It all went smoothly with no problems at all. Thank you guys at WordPress for doing such a great software. I’m hosting my site at Lunarpages and since it is a shared server you can’t use ssh, so I had to use FTP and cPanel when upgrading. Ok, this is how I upgraded wpmu from 1.2.5 to 1.3. I know that this step isn’t always my first choice but I thought that I would try it anyway, RTFM. https://merikan.com/2007/11/installing-dbvisualizer-on-ubuntu/ Wed, 14 Nov 2007 20:58:42 +0000 https://merikan.com/2007/11/installing-dbvisualizer-on-ubuntu/ Since I changed from Windos to Linux Ubuntu I don’t have all of my dev tools installed. One of those tools is the great universal database tool called DbVis from Minq. Minq doesn’t deliver DbVis as synapt package so I had to find a alternative and since I’m not a Linux blackbelt I had to do some googling. I found this blog and this and this that gave me a hint of what to do. https://merikan.com/2007/09/installing-wordpress-mu-on-lunarpages/ Sun, 16 Sep 2007 14:30:31 +0000 https://merikan.com/2007/09/installing-wordpress-mu-on-lunarpages/ I wanted to install a blogging software that everyone in the family could use. Lunarpages has the Fantastico package that contains the WordPress software. Unfortunately this is the single -user version of WordPress and I wanted each and every family member to have their own blog e.g. http://blogs.merikan.com/. This how I did it. Create a subdomain named blogs (blogs.yourdomain.com) Create database wpmu Create db user wpmu and add the user to the database Download the wpmu tar file and extract it on the desktop Now upload the exploded tar file to the root directory of the newly created subdomain named blogs (/www/blogs/) Run the WordPress MU installation script by accessing http://blogs.
