Installing PHP OAuth library in Mac OS X

By -
Check the current version of OAuth you wanted to install in http://pecl.php.net/package/oauth

Then just copy the link and use wget, since I love wget.

wget http://pecl.php.net/get/oauth-1.2.3.tgz

where 1.2.3 is the current version as of this writing.

Then decompress it by

tar -xzvf oauth-1.2.3.tgz

Now go into that directory where the source has been extracted and run,

$> CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib ./configure

if you encounter an error like this,

....
auth.c  -fno-common -DPIC -o .libs/oauth.o
In file included from /var/root/oauth-1.2.3/php_oauth.h:47,
                 from /var/root/oauth-1.2.3/oauth.c:14:
/usr/include/php/ext/pcre/php_pcre.h:29:18: error: pcre.h: No such file or directory
In file included from /var/root/oauth-1.2.3/php_oauth.h:47,
                 from /var/root/oauth-1.2.3/oauth.c:14:
/usr/include/php/ext/pcre/php_pcre.h:37: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘*’ token
/usr/include/php/ext/pcre/php_pcre.h:38: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘*’ token
/usr/include/php/ext/pcre/php_pcre.h:44: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before ‘pcre’
make: *** [oauth.lo] Error 1

that's because in your CPPFLAGS, it was not able to locate headers that are required, or particularly, pcre.h as seen above. If you take a look at the file  /usr/include/php/ext/pcre/php_pcre.h, you can see that there's an include of header involving pcre.h

To fix that, try to look, or perhaps install PCRE library which include this header. In my setup, I have already an available headers found in /opt/local/include, so what I did is just,


$> CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include -I/opt/local/include" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib -L/opt/local/lib" ./configure

then run "make && make install" after.


$> make && make install


Afterall is successful, just edit your php.ini and include oauth.so, where mine is placed in

/usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/


and put,

extension=oauth.so

to load the module. Seeing <?php phpinfo(); ?> in your code will print that information regarding your OAuth module installed.

Converting sectors into MB - Useful in understanding the sectors in iostat in Linux

By -
Supposed you have a sector with 512 Bytes equivalent, then the formula will be just below 1 sect. 1024 Bytes 1024 KB --------- x ---------- x --------- = 2048 sect./ MB 512 Bytes 1 KB 1 MB i.e. if a sector has a 512 Bytes, commonly in a hard disk, so which means that a 1024 Bytes == 2 sector of a KiloByte. So if 2 sector is equivalent to a KiloByte (1024 Bytes), if you do the math, 2 ** 1024 / 512.0 = 2048. This is useful only understanding the iostat process in Linux.

What is Disk Contention?

By -
Okay, so let me take a note about this meaning... Disk contention occurs when multiple processes try to access the same disk simultaneously. Most disks have limits on both the number of accesses (I/O operations each second) and the amount of data they can transfer each second (I/O data rate, or  throughput ). When these limits are reached, processes must wait to access the disk. It's a situation occurring when multiple processes try to access the same disk(s) and the requests outrun the response times of the drive(s). This happens because most disks are restricted in the amount of data they can transfer and the number of accesses (I/O operations) they can handle each second. Disk contention became a more prominent problem when CPU speeds dramatically increased over the past 15 years, putting even greater demands on disk-based data storage and causing the modern data centers’ most significant operational constraint.
