Test your apache config file

Test your apache config file

This is a quick note to remind you about the command to test your apache config file before actually restarting apache:

You can check your configuration files for syntax errors without starting the server by using apachectl configtest or the -t command line option.

How to get ProxyPass to ignore a URL so you can still use Apache HTACCESS

On a few of my servers I use Apache with Apache Tomcat. and ProxyPass to forward requests from apache over to Tomcat for my Coldfusion pages. The part I have been struggling with for so long was how to do password protected directories in apache.  Either by adding the config to the VirtualHost directive or by .htaccess. It seemed no matter what I did, requests were getting proxied and there was nothing I could do about it. Tonight I finally found my answer: The ProxyPass !  combo: ProxyPass /dealers/ !

Boy I wish there was a way to create a table from a select query

I was doing some SQL work today when I had a thought: Boy I wish there was a way to create a table from a select query I started in Navicat to see if it was possible.  After find nothing I decided to google it all the while thinking in my head how I was going to create a script to do this if I couldn't find anything. I found something. I was happy yet sad.  Happy because I didn't have to take the time to create something.  Sad because I didn't have to create the tool.  It sounded like a fun project. What did I find you ask? The "Create Table as" statement. CREATE TABLE [ IF NOT EXISTS ] new_table [ AS ] SELECT expressions FROM existing_tables [WHERE conditions]; The best part about it is the statement knows to go to the existing tables to get the column type, size etc.   Such a tremendous time saver.  I cannot believe in all my years of programming I never stumbled upon this type of statement.
