Redis user permissions (ACL) and python connection

 Recently, I was working on setting up a redis cluster along with separate users for readwrite and readonly.

Configure Linksys Wireless Router WRT54GC with BSNL SmartAX MT882 modem

-
It has been a long time since I blogged (almost 2 months, to be precise), more due to paucity of time than anything else.

In the meantime, I have been busy configuring the Linksys Wireless Router and my new HTC smartphone.

I had to struggle a lot to configure the Linksys router WRT54GC to work with the BSNL (ISP) provided modem SmartAX MT882. So, I have prepared a list of steps that can be used to configure the Linksys router with BSNL (though the navigation is specific to SmartAX MT882, I believe the solution can be transposed on any other type of modem too).

Click here for the step by step configuration guide.

Elasticsearch: Get output in CSV format using curl and jq

-
  If you've used elasticsearch , you'll know that each call to it has to be through REST APIs, either using Kibana , curl, postman or similar tools. If you are like me, then curl is the way to go! However, that does pose one problem - how does one select specific fields, akin to select statements of SQL/RDBMS DBs? The answer is using jq , the lightweight and flexible command-line JSON processor.  This is my use-case:  I have an elasticsearch cluster in which daily snapshots are scheduled and I would like to get the output of snapshot name, snapshot repo, name of the SLM policy etc., in a comma separated row format so that I can directly use it to push that data to my backup catalog in PostgreSQL. So, I query "_snapshot/<snapshot_repo>/backup_name_start_string*" and the output is quite long and convoluted (the more the backups, the longer the output)! Here, I present the way to shorten the output as well as to fetch it in row based CSV format, easier to understa...

EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in Jinitiator and IE crashes

-
The Environment Apps Version : 11.5.10.2 Jinitiator Version : 1.3.1.26 Internet Explorer Version : 6 The Issue One of our end users was receiving a very strange error while using jinitiator. The Internet explorer window would crash (close by itself) after creating a file HS_ERR_PID .log on the desktop, where #### stands for the Process ID of the f60webmx session. This error is intermittent and not easily reproducible. Moreover, the user would have to redo his/her work and hence this issue was turning out to be very vexing indeed. The error log is as below: An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM. Unexpected Signal : EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION occurred at PC=0x6D043D1AFunction name=Java_sun_java2d_loops_DefaultComponent_IntIsomorphicCopy Library=C:\Program Files\Oracle\JInitiator 1.3.1.26\bin\awt.dll Current Java thread: at sun.java2d.loops.DefaultComponent.IntIsomorphicCopy(Native Method) at sun.java2d.loops.IntRgbToIntRgb.OpaqueBlit(Unknown Source) at ...
