Can't start Tomcat after install VMware server.

Today (It is not real and I'm lazy to update my blog ==") I'm astonished at why i cannot start Tomcat.
Previously, I offen use Jetty to run my web application because It is fast and has great Maven plugin integreated.
This is exception.

I knew port 8009 and 8005 is used by another process but i don't know what process use.
Then I searched for process using this port.

sudo netstat -p -l
Active Internet connections (only servers)

tcp6 0 0 [::]:microsoft-ds [::]:* LISTEN 5387/smbd

Then I used ps command to find what webAccess is?

ps -ef | grep webAccess
root 6312 1 0 19:30 ? 00:00:00 /bin/sh /usr/bin/vmware-watchdog -s webAccess -u 30 -q 5 /usr/lib/vmware/webAccess/java/jre1.5.0_15/bin/webAccess -client -Xmx64m -XX:MinHeapFreeRatio=30 -XX:MaxHeapFreeRatio=30 -Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager -Djava.endorsed.dirs=/usr/lib/vmware/webAccess/tomcat/apache-tomcat-6.0.16/common/endorsed -classpath /usr/lib/vmware/webAccess/tomcat/apache-tomcat-6.0.16/bin/bootstrap.jar:/usr/lib/vmware/webAccess/tomcat/apache-tomcat-6.0.16/bin/commons-logging-api.jar -Dcatalina.base=/usr/lib/vmware/webAccess/tomcat/apache-tomcat-6.0.16 -Dcatalina.home=/usr/lib/vmware/webAccess/tomcat/apache-tomcat-6.0.16 -Djava.io.tmpdir=/usr/lib/vmware/webAccess/tomcat/apache-tomcat-6.0.16/temp org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap start

I got VMware using Tomcat to run webAccess.
I chose to change Tomcat ports of VMware. I prefer this approach because I do not change other Tomcat ports again. (yes, It includes JBoss too)

To change Tomcat ports.
1 edit server.xml at /usr/lib/vmware/webAccess/tomcat/apache-tomcat-6.0.16/conf/server.xml.
2 change file mode to writeable.

sudo chmod a+w server.xml

3 find and change 8009 and 8005 ports to others.
4 save and change file mode to old mode.

sudo chmod a-w server.xml

5 restart service or reboot you OS.

Other ways to run Maven on Eclipe.

M2eclipse is excellent Maven tool for Eclipse.
I always use hotkey Shift + Alt + X M to run the last maven goals of Maven Build projects.
example First time you run "compile goal" of MyProject. Next time you want to run with other goals. If you use this hotkey, It will run "compile goal" again. You must move a mouse, right click on project, then select Run as Maven builds ... and key the new goal that you want. It is inconvenient.

Today I read Eclipse integration with Grails. In the step Adding domain classes etc, It shows the way to use External Tools to run grails command. It can adapt to run maven goals.
1 Run -> External tools -> External tools configuration ... .
2 Select Program and new launch configuration.
3 Enter a name of "Maven".
4 Browse file system for the location of mvn command that you have installed.
5 Set the working directory to "${project_loc}".
6 Set the arguments as "${string_prompt}".
7 Under the "Refresh" tab, set to refresh the "project containing the selected resource" upon completion.
8 Under the "Common" tab, tick "Display in favorites menu".
9 I set hotkey Shift + Alt + X S to Runs the last launched external Tool.

Every time you use thes hotkey, Eclipe will always ask you what is the goals you need to run.
You can type any maven goals.

How to convert Babylon dict to Stardict.

I found two approach to do.
- used stardict-tool
- used dictconv
I tested only first solution.
1. Open a Synaptic Package Manager and find the stardict-tools package to install .
2. Download which Babylon dict you want at babylon .
3. Using bgl2txt in /usr/lib/stardict-toos/bgl2txt convert Babylon dict to plain text.

$/usr/lib/stardict-toos/bgl2txt xxx.bgl

4. Your step 3 output is xxx.babylon. You must convert one again with babylon in /usr/lib/stardict-toos/babylon .

$/usr/lib/stardict-toos/babylon xxx.babylon

5. Create xxx folder and copy outputs from step 4 to xxx folder then move it to Stardict dictionary directory.

$mv xxx/ /usr/share/stardict/dic/

6. Enjoy your new dict. :-)

note

approximate steps for dictconv. credit http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread96152.html.
- install dictconv
- using this command.

$dictconv test.BGL -o test.ifo

now you have test.ifo , test.idx and test.dict .
- install dictzip for compressing dict and use this command.

$dictzip test.dict

- copy your output (test.ifo , test.idx , test.dz) to stardict dictionary directory.

เปิด blog รับปีใหม่

ถือโอกาศขึ้นปีใหม่ 2009 เป็นวันเริ่มเขียน blog เลย
สวัสดีปีใหม่ครับ

เป้าหมายที่คิดไว้สำหรับการเขียน blog
1. การพัฒนาโปรแกรมด้วยภาษา java รวมถึง tool ต่างๆ
2. เก็บเทคนิดและประสบการณ์ที่พบจาก linux ตอนนี้ใช้ Ubuntu อยู่เพิ่งหัดใช้ได้ไม่นาน
3. ฝึกทักษะภาษาอังกฤษ ก็สลับๆกับเขียนภาษาไทยด้วยแหละ <- ภาษาบ้านๆแบบเนี่ยเขียนเป็นประโยคภาษาอังกฤษยากจริ๊ง =="
