Looking into hosting a 5k race

sweetninjamaster — Tue, 27 Jan 2009 18:05:31 +0000

This begins my exploration into race promotion.

Promotion? You can promote a race online with the Runner’s World Race Finder, as well as a ton of other places, I’m sure. There’s an eHow article about this.

Registration? If the race isn’t free, then it will probably cost you a registration fee. I see some people are using www.active.com. Some people use mail-in forms.

What should be on your website? Runner’s World had a decent little list.

SQL Update with WHERE EXISTS

sweetninjamaster — Mon, 26 Jan 2009 18:01:37 +0000

This is for when you need to update multiple records based on values in another table.

I got my info here.

Example:

UPDATE suppliers
SET supplier_name =	( SELECT customers.nameFROM customers WHERE customers.customer_id = suppliers.supplier_id)
	WHERE EXISTS ( SELECT customers.name FROM customers WHERE customers.customer_id = suppliers.supplier_id);

Stored Procedure – Resource List

Coderecipes.net – Stored Procedures Tutorial – I found this useful. It’s just basic information about the stored procedures and their anatomy.

Fix the stinking ‘EXECUTE permission was denied on the object’ error

So you’re building stored procedures? Sweet. You have to set the stored procedure permissions though. I kept forgetting how to do this when I started implementing stored procedures. This is for SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005. It’s probably a little different on other version.

1. Open SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005

2. Expand your database > expand Programability > right click and select Properties

3. Select Permissions

4. Add desired user to ‘Users or roles list’

5. Select Grant on the Execute row of the ‘Explicit permissions’ menu.

I wish I had a brain…

Unix… Shit.

I just started learning how to use unix. I just don’t know how to talk to it yet.

So far, the best resource I found was this: UNIX / Linux Tutorial for Beginners

Xampp: Develop Websites on Your Local Machine

sweetninjamaster — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 17:17:51 +0000

I just got started using Xampp last month and I’ve found it really useful. So far, I’ve just used it to develop WordPress and Drupal sites.

It’s a nice little local variety of Apache, MySQL, FileZilla and Mercury. I’ve only delved into the Apache and MySQL applications so far. PHPmyAdmin is included as well.

Installation wasn’t bad.
