Fortunately there was no need to go through the painful process of creating my own CA etc., but instead I was able to use the “built-in” certifcate of my provider. To read a SSL certificate: openssl x509 -noout -text -in certificate.crt

check Apache server version by creating a simple e.g. serverinfo.php file with following statement: <?php phpinfo(); ?>

and open in your browser: http://your host/serverinfo.php. Find the version info in the Apache Version section:

Apache Version – Apache/2.0.53 (Linux/SUSE)

or run from the command line:

/usr/sbin # apache2ctl -v

Server version: Apache/2.0.53

Server built: Aug 30 2006 13:14:23

h969344:/usr/sbin #

Next add mod_status to your APACHE_MODULES by editing /etc/sysconfig/apache2 configuration – the Status module allows a server administrator to find out how well a server is performing. A HTML page is presented that gives the current server statistics in an easily readable form:

APACHE_MODULES=

“access actions alias auth auth_dbm autoindex cgi

dir env expires headers include log_config mime

mod_status negotiation setenvif

ssl suexec userdir php4 rewrite”

In the same file and if extended logging is needed, set APACHE_EXTENDED_STATUS=”on” – be careful here, this will degrade performance.

Edit httpd.conf and add a Location section to your virtualhost section (remove Include /etc/apache2/mod_status.conf):

<VirtualHost *:80>

….

<Location /server-status>

SetHandler server-status

# Order deny,allow

# Deny from all

Allow from .yourdomain

</Location>

….

</VirtualHost>

restart the HTTP server: /usr/sbin/rcapache2 restart

You should see your Apache server status now by issuing this URL: http://yourHost/server-status providing the following information:

• The number of worker serving requests
• The number of idle worker
• The status of each worker, the number of requests that worker has performed and the total number of bytes served by the worker (*)
• A total number of accesses and byte count served (*)
• The time the server was started/restarted and the time it has been running for
• Averages giving the number of requests per second, the number of bytes served per second and the average number of bytes per request (*)
• The current percentage CPU used by each worker and in total by Apache (*)
• The current hosts and requests being processed (*)

The lines marked “(*)” are only available if ExtendedStatus is On

awstats

To display HTTP server log information in a graphical form, install awstats:

AWStats is a free powerful and featureful tool that generates advanced web, streaming, ftp or mail server statistics, graphically.

Copy awstats to a directory of your choice, installation defaults to /usr/local/awstats. Then run the awstats configuration process: perl awstats_configure.pl, which will add directives to your httpd.conf and create a configuration file (default location: /etc/awstats)

<Directory “/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot”>

Options all

AllowOverride None

Order allow,deny

Allow from all

</Directory>

Alias /awstatsclasses “/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/classes/”

Alias /awstatscss “/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/css/”

Alias /awstatsicons “/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/icon/”

ScriptAlias /awstats/ “/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/”

Once done run the data import process from the cgi-bin folder of your awstats installation (you can automate this in the config file): perl awstats.pl config=yourdomain. See results of your site: http://yourdomain/awstats/awstats.pl or at this demo site

Wer eine “globale” Einstellung vermeiden will, kann die Import Werte auch über eine .htaccess Datei verändern – so zumindestens lt. diesem Artikel:

how to …:

The XML Google Maps plugin reads the GPS position information from the Exif tags of the image stored in the NextGEN Gallery. Use “xmlgm ngg_gallery=<gallerid>” to show the whole geotagged Gallery on your map or use “xmlgm ngg_picture=<picture id>” to show a single picture !

Here the photo made with the iPhone:
[SinglePic not found]

Finally the Exif data using the showmeta.php of nextgen gallery: EXIF

On my wishlist are:

1. iPhone doesn’t properly tag photos with geodata. There are some posts out there referring to this problem. Guess this is something to be fixed by Apple. I had to manually fix geodata using GeoSetter
2. A feature request for the NextGen Gallery: extend showmeta.php to also read and display geodata from photos
3. Another one for NextGen Gallery: provide function / parameter, which allows adding Exif data to an image / gallery in a post, something like: [SinglePic not found]
4. XML Google Maps and route tracking: can I combine tracking and photo location in one map ?

Comments welcome !

For (1) this seems to be a known issue, yet not fixed – so far it requires some manual intervention.

The problem of the iPhone’s Camera app assigning only North and West values to the EXIF lat/lon REF tags has been noted in this forum at apple. This problem is different from the iPhoto bug, which would occasionally strip the lat/lon REF tags from photo EXIF.

Instead, the problem that smokeonit is talking about is an actually iPhone camera app bug, which seems only willing to put North and West tags on. People in Japan get their photos plopped in the pacific ocean, on the other side of the international date line (because they have a W lon tag when they should have an E lon tag). People in Australia have their pics on the opposite side of the planet.

This has been observed to happen even when iPhoto is not even used. So it’s an iPhone software bug. See the apple discussion board for more info.  Yeesh. Apple is not good at geotagging. First they screwed it up in iPhoto, then they screwed it up in iPhone.

Remove the minus for the longitude and you are done.

A good link about geotagging images and some applications, which might be helpful:

and I can continue with XML Google maps plugin:

1. install Google Map Plugin, download from Avi’s Blog and read this excellent guideline
2. open Google Earth and create a new folder under my places
3. search for your place of interest, add a placemark, description, icon, add HTML text etc.
4. make sure to add your new placemark to your folder (step 2)
5. rightclick your folder entry and save as .kml file, copy .kml file to your Wordpress server
6. in Google Earth open “file/view in Google Maps”, in Google Maps then adjust zoom settings, “map/satellite”, rightclick to “center map here” etc, finally click on “link to page”
7. create a new post and add following HTML code replacing “center of map” and .kml information

<dl title=”googlemap;w:100%;h:600″ id=”montenegro-kml”> <dt><a href=”http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&t=h&ie=UTF8&ll=42.510577,18.852539&spn=1.289677,2.958069&z=9&om=1″>Center of map</a></dt> <dt><a href=”http://bernhard.hensler.net/blog/wp-content/gmaps/Montenegro.kml” title=”kml”>places in montenegro </a></dt> </dl>

Or use google maps:

1. Go to Google Maps, find the spot you want to show, select Map, Satelite or Hybrid view buttons, double-click on the most important point on the map to centralized it, and define the zoom factor you want.

2. On the left-top corner of the map, click on the “Link to this page”, and copy your browser’s location to the clipboard. You can do the same for complex maps created on the My Maps section of Google Maps website.

3. While creating the post, select the text that will be displayed on the map marker, and create a link with it.

4. Paste the map URL on the Link URL field, and on Title write “googlemap”.

5. Continue editing your post and publish.

You are done.

Thanks Yosemite, you were right. My host was cool, they said

“This error is due to the fact that the maximum size of php files which were to be executed was 8MB, I increased this size to 32 and the problem is solved as I checked it.Please let us know if the problem persists.”

03.08.06
set maximum memory for execution of php files to 16mb in php.ini
