tif file format, to read with what?
by Constant Brouerius van Nidek 02 Apr '04

02 Apr '04

Just received from somebody some important files in tif format. I received them in Konquerer and decided to open them. The result was not what I expected. Some tiny colored balls on one black page. Used some other viewers with the same or even worse results. Does SuSE 9.0 or linux in general some special program to read such files or is tif propriety stuff. And what is the difference between tif and tiff? I googled but did not find a satisfactory answer ;-). In case that I cannot open these tif files, In what kind of format this Windows user should translate these files?

He told me the best way is to open the box, and look with a flashlight for a "silkscreened" name on MB. He said the "name brand" boards will have one, whereas the "off brands" probably will just have a number, if that. However, he said if you can't find a name, try and find the FCC registration number. You can then look on FCC data base for "who" applied for the registration and hopefully they have a web site. -- "The quickest way to get information on the web is not to ask a question, but to post the wrong information." - Aahz' Law restated -- __________________________________________________________________ Introducing the New Netscape Internet Service.

Cron errors: rcpache: stty: standard input: Invalid argument
by JW 01 Apr '04

01 Apr '04

I'm having some trouble with a cron job that restarts apache as part of log rotation. Please note that I am purposely using a custom perl script instead of logrotate. At first I was getting errors about killproc and startproc: "no such command" which I solved by adding /sbin to the $PATH in my script. However I still have a problem regarding stty: Restarting apache at /root/script/ccs007weblogrotate-small.pl line 127. Shutting down httpd..done Starting httpd [ PERL SSL status ]Reloaded Brazossticks::Control stty: standard input: Invalid argument ..done [Please note that i have none of these problems during bootup or when calling rcapache start by hand] Looking at rcapache I see that the stty command are checking to see if apache is still waiting for an still passphrase before starting up. (we do use SSL, but don't have to type in a passphrase by hand). Obviously, there is no actually tty involved when the cron script is running, but apparently a bad exit code is generated anyway, causing cron to send an error report. At the very least I need a way to make cron not send an error when _this_particular_ error condition occurs. I would /like/ to fix it by doing something to make stty happy, preferably without modifying the apache initscript. Any ideas? Thanks, JW -------------------------------------------------------
