How do setup FlexUnit in your CI build process on 64-Bit Linux

Hello everyone. I am trying to setup FlexUnit in my build process and am using Rackspace cloud servers for my build server. I only have the option of Linux 64 bit distros or Windows 32b/64b. I started setting up and configuring everything on Linux but ran into problems installing the required stand alone player for test execution using FlexUnit. There is no 64-bit linux compatitble version of the stand alone player. In configuring the system to use the browser plugin on the machine instead of the stand alone player for executing the tests, I then get a manual interaction component which doesn't fit well with an automated CI build.
Am I the only person out there trying to integrate FlexUnit into my CI process on a 64b Linux machine? Any pointers, tips, workarounds or general hypothetical ideas would be great!

@mbbender - Answers below:
> I have been able to get the Flash Plugin working in a browser on my 64b Ubuntu 10.4 system. However, from my understanding I can not use the flash plugin from a browser to properly execute a headless execution of my tests during the CI process. To execute the tests as part of the CI process I need the Flash Stand Alone Player.
-- As of FlexUnit 4.1-beta2, you have the option of executing your tests using the stand-alone debug Flash Player using the default mechanism to launch that player or using a custom command, which could potentially point to the browser.  Check out the docs on the Ant task @ http://docs.flexunit.org/index.php?title=Ant_Task#Usage and the sample CI build using a browser @ http://github.com/flexunit/flexunit/blob/master/FlexUnit4SampleCIProject/build.browser.xml for more details on how to do this.
> Are you saying that I can somehow use the Flash Plugin dependencies to install the Flash Stand Alone Player? If so, would I then need a 32b emulator wrapper for running the Stand Alone Player?  Or, are you suggesting that I can somehow use the Flash Plugin in the browser to do what I need to execute my tests during the Hudson build?
-- Although I'm not a savvy Linux admin, it's my understanding that recent 64-bit Linux distros can execute 32-bit applications as well as 64-bit applications.  The only req I'm aware of is that the 32-bit version of the dependencies must be available.  In this case, executing the 32-bit version of the SA player should work from what I understand.
> Do you have a CI build process setup on a Linux 64b CentOS system with FlexUnit? To be honest, I'm more concerned with the end result right now than learning how to do it on my own and would like to know if you can potentially help me get this done a little quicker if you are interested.
-- I currently have a setup using 64-bit CentOS and running the 32-bit SA player, although it's not on Adobe's proper list of supported OSes.  We've worked with other folks who have the 32-bit SA player running with FlexUnit on Ubuntu 64-bit.  There was some feedback on some issues using older versions of openSUSE, but I don't know too many details re: the problem.
Hope this helps.

  • How to setup a Seamless Transaction Gateway with PayPal (Australia Only)

    I've been working with the team at PayPal to allow BC Partners to set up a cost effective way to setup a Seamless Transaction Shopping Cart Process on their BC eCommerce website without the need for a 3rd Party Merchant Provider like eWay or Secure Pay or their bank. This is designed for entry level businesses who want to control their setup costs and keep all funds in one place (PayPal).
    Currently BC doesn't support Paypal's Payments Pro plan in Australia so you are limited with either a non-seamless payment process or using a 3rd Party Merchant provider with can be costly.
    Without going into too much detail, the setup on PayPal's side is a mixture of a couple of plans, and is a little complicated however through our discussions we come to an arrangement of any additional fee's associated with the setup being waived since this is more so of a technical workaround than anything else.
    Basically PayPal is the merchant provider, and the customer doesn't leave your website when making a purchase through the Shopping Cart. The setup is only $25/month plus transaction fees of between 1.1 to 2.4% + 30 cents depending on the number of payments (this is just an initial guide and confirmed on your discussion with the PayPal).
    Because the setup involves quite a few steps and departments I've arranged a contact that will fast track this process and is familiar with this unique setup.
    How to setup PayPal for a Seamless Transaction Process
    Sign up for PayPal Business account  Timeframe: <20 minutes
    Email Peter [email protected] or phone (02) 8288 0333. CC me [email protected] or mention my name so he can correctly setup the process and apply the discounted pricing.
    Prepare for the Verification process for the PayPal account (Proof of ID, Proof of Address, Business documents etc).
    Wait for Account Verification. You will be informed to setup both PayFlow Pro* and Website Payments Pro (*the PayFlow payment will be waived as mentioned previously). Timeframe: up to 5 business days depending on swift supply of required documentation.
    Wait for your Billing Agreement for Website Payments Pro once application has been approved. Sometimes they will receive a phone call to verify details of the application. Timeframe: Up to 72 hours
    Login into your PayPal account to accept the Billing Agreement.
    Notify Peter once the Billing Agreement has been accepted so your PayFlow Pro can be linked to your Website Payments Pro
    Login into your Business Catalyst Website and navigate e-Commerce > Payment Gateways
    Select PayPal PayFlow Payment Gateway (..,AU, ..)
    Enter your Username, PayPal Password, and add VSA as the Partner
    Setting up PayPal Payments
    If you also want to make payments via PayPal (ie, with the customers Pay Pal account) you can continue with setting up the PayPal Website Standard secure with your PayPal Customer ID and your PDT Token which you'll need to setup in your PayPal Account.
    If you have any questions give me or Peter an email. I'll continue to update this document as I go.
    Please note this setup is current for Australian Pay Pal Customers only. This process does not support re-occurring billing.

    Dennis, sounds like you are having issues connecting to your network. Here is what we are going to do. 
    On your first question,  and second question for that matter, I would suggest using a WPA password. Our printers doe not associate with the other types as well as WPA. You should be able to do that, though I have not personally set up a router that way to have experience in how it will react with the networked devices. As for the issues you are having, once the settings are all in the correct order I am going to suggest we connect the printer to the network through the computer. 
    What you will do is install the printer using a USB connection, then re-run the setup software. Here there should be an option for USB to  Wireless. This will be the easiest way to be sure that all the settings are correctly transferred over.

  • How to Setup Flash Builder ActionScript only project for iPad?

    Hello!
    Can someone give a short guide on how to setup an ActionScript only prject in flash builder such that it can be compiled using adt and deployed to the iPad?
    i created successfully iphone games using FlashIDE and PFI.
    now I'd like to create an iPad app using Flash Builder (ActionScript only). but I fail to load the compiled IPA to the ipad, keep getting different errormessages thus i think something with my projectsetup is wrong

    Yes, in Terminal you type a single line which is made from the path to the adt application, some parameters, and paths to other documents. Here's the full list of things:
    /Location/to/AdobeAIRSDK_2.6/bin/adt
    -package
    -target ipa-test
    -provisioning-profile /Location/to/Provision.mobileprovision
    -storetype pkcs12
    -keystore /Location/to/Certificates.p12
    -storepass password
    NameOfApp.ipa ApplicationDescriptor-app.xml
    -C /Location/to/swf  NameOfApp.swf
    splashscreens
    icons
    That "-C" line is clever, it does a directory change to the folder you give it, so after the -C /location/to/swf part it will then look in that same folder for other documents, and for where to build the IPA file.

    Please tell me how you got the computer to reboot again once it was on the black screen saying "setup is inspecting your hardware configuration?"

    Hi,
    use the power-switch on the left backside of your iMac to turn your Mac off.
    Use it again to restart your Mac and hold down the Alt/Option-button to get to the Boot Selection screen.
    Choose OSX.
    Once in OSX go to System Preferences - Startup Volume and reset it to use OSX as the default.
    Am I right assuming that you try to install Windows XP on a new (2011) iMac ?
    If so, XP is no longer supported by Apple for use/install With BootCamp.
    But there are some success stories when using a XP with SP3.

  • How to setup multiple base station under one network?

    How to setup multiple base station under one network? I have 6 rooms but one airport base station makes really difficult to get good signal from every rooms. I wonder if I can setup multiple airport base stations talking to each other under the same network to build up the signal strength will help solve this problem. But, is it possible? How?

    One route would be to utilize a "roaming" network. In a roaming network, you would connect multiple AirPort Extreme Base Stations (AEBS) to the same Ethernet. Of course, this would require that your home is already wired for Ethernet.

  • How to Setup Historical DSC Database on a standalone Server

    Hey @all,
    I am looking for documentation how to setup a standalone server for the DSC Module(Ver. 8) Historical Database.
    My aim is to log all data to this server. The Server will be running Win2K.
    Do I have to install the complete Labview 8 software and the DSC Module?
    Does a walkthrough exist how to setup a DSC server?
    Thx!
    Carsten  

    After installing the runtime you should only have to reboot the computer in order to get the citadel service running.  At the point, for citadel purposes, this machine will behave as though you had the DSC development system installed.  The 8.0 runtime has no setup requirements...it should only need to be installed.  Unlike previous versions, 8.0 requires you to build your application into an executable and the runtime should be invisible to you once you install it.  If this is not the case, please post about it so it can be looked at.
    If you have specific questions, please post them and I will either try and help you find the answers, get them posted, or answer them myself.
    Regards,
    Robert

  • 1 How to setup new company name   2 How to setup row, rock and bin

    Hi,
    Anybody who can help me how to setup new company.
    And also how to setup row, rock and bin because we need to assign a location for our spare parts inventory.
    Thanks in advance.

    Row/rack/bin sounds like an inventory system. For a simple system you might want to build your own from scratch, but for even a mid-sized company you really want a shrink-wrapped solution -- i.e. Oracle apps or SAP.
    You don't want to be figuring out how to model material transactions, move orders, etc. Nor do you probably want to dive into various cost accounting options.

    Golive 8.01

    Hi:
    What you are talking about is building a "form". What you have posted is a sample of a pre-built form and a service that offers free coding, or will go the next step for you and install a functioning form for you.
    Golive has what you need to build forms on your own - it has all the text fields, radio buttons, submit buttons etc. available, and any book about whatever GoLive version you have (including the online HELP) will have step-by-step instructions on how to do the building on your end.
    The tricky part comes with making the form actually work. GoLive can only build the form page with all the fields and buttons, etc. but processing a form requires a server, and coding has to be added to your page that directs the page to interact with the server and process the form.
    Different servers (i.e. different hosting companies) handle forms differently. Some use cgi scripts, some use php scripts and occasionally other types. Some companies have prefab forms setup for you, similarly to what you posted from FreeContactForm, with good directions on how to make the scripts work with your forms. Others have prefab forms and poor directions or no directions on how to make the scripts work with your form. Other companies tell you you're on your own altogether.
    I'm from the design side of the world and doing forms was quite intimidating for me originally. It doesn't intimidate me anymore but it's usually a minor pain in the a$$. Depends on the hosting company. Some have instructions that are clear and easy, etc. Others, not so much.
    What I generally do is start by contacting the hosting company Tech Support and asking how they handle forms. They may direct me to their prefab stuff, often accessible through an ADMIN portal, or they'll tell me to go find my own script, or whatever. Depending on what they offer I'll take a look and if I have questions I'll call them back or not.
    Basically with forms you have 2 key things to grasp. What coding do you need to add to your web page? And do you need to address any kind of separate document? Sometimes there will be a script page that resides on the server (in a cgi-bin, or php folder, or on the root) that you would need to open and add something to. In your web page itself you always have to add something to the form part of the coding, but sometimes you add something to your head code as well. It just depends on the script involved.
    Generally you need to provide the email address that the form results will be sent to, a URL for a "Thank You For Subscribing" (or whatever) page that will appear after the person hits the "submit" button, or other page you want to appear (maybe you just have them go back to the homepage on the website, or you send them to a default "your form has been submitted" page that the script will generate if you don't provide a URL. Thats ez, but the pages are usually ugly and won't match your site at all.). Also, you usually have options to provide a Subject Line for the email that will be generated so that the receiver knows that the email is from the form, etc.
    FreeContactForm appears to be offering to just handle all that for you and you can certainly go that route. When I first tackled forms I needed a programmer buddy to help understand what the heck was going on - you'll probably need someone to help you. But it IS good to learn to understand the basics because, if you build websites it's going to come up over and over. And it's good to learn to work in source code at least to some extent, because that will come up too.
    But if you're building something for fun now and aren't going to do this a lot, you probably don't need to hassle with it.
    Hope that helps and good luck!

  • How to setup a static IP for a wireless printer

    This problem has been ongoing for several versions of OS X and the last five printers I've had and I'm finally over messing with it.  For some reson, when using a wireless printer with OS X this is a repetetive problem, and I think if I configured the printer to a static IP address instead of using DHCP, it might work better.  At least once a week, if not more often, I'll print something and get the ubiquitous Dock error of "Printer is not connected".  The printer is still in Preferences, but if I delete it, then it doesn't show up as it should for selection.
    The only way to fix this is reboot, and then the printer shows up again in Preferences.  I select it and all is well again...until a few days pass and the same thing happens again.  Using an HP LaserJet P1102w, still a current model, but it doesn't matter which printer I use.  I also have an Epson Artisan 725 and the same thing happens with it about once a week.  Also, this happens from both my Mac and my wife's Mac, so it's not an issue with just my machine.
    I've searched for documentation on how to setup a static IP address for a wireless printer with the Airport Extreme, but all I find are tutorials on how to do it with an ethernet hard-wired printer.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You could set up your router to do manual assignment of IP address instead of using DHCP, but that is a PITA, because then you'd have to manually set up IP for all your devices.
    If you have AirPOrt Extreme, you could do this:
    In your Apple TV, go to the Settings >> About and write down the MAC address of your ATV
    Start up the AiPort Admin Utility
    Go to Network tab
    click + in the DHCP reservations
    Choose an IP you want for your ATV & Enter the MAC address
    From now on, this IP address will be reserved to the MAC address and only your ATV will be able to get it, no other device will.
    It is not a static IP in a true sense, but behaves just like one.
    Works great for me...
    If you don't have a AP Extreme, I'm sure other routers will allow you do reservations too.

    Hi,
    You need to have Back End support to achieve this. In Back End you need to create two groups . You need to know what joins has to be made for which group (which is more important) and also make session variable for the userrole (with SQL supporting it). In the BMM layer, we need to put the security join conditions in the 'where clause'.
    And make a common report. User loggin in with the respective userid will have userrole and joins assigned in the Back end. And they will be viewing the report according to their access.
    Hope this will solve your problem.

    Update - it works ! At least I can connect to Mountain Lion (not server) from my iPhone using the VPN Server Configurator app.
    Here's what I did :
    1) download the app and install
    2) setup using the help files on the web page : http://www.greenworldsoft.com/product-vpn-server-help.html
    3) at the last stage you need to setup port forwardin on your router
    4) under Airport Utility 6.0 you cannot setup ports 500 or 4500 due to BTTM conflicts but setup the other 2 ports (1723 TCP and 1701 UDP), update airport extreme
    5) download Airport Utility 5.6 from here : download already extracted utility  it is in it's extracted form as is necessary under Mtn Lion (thanks to NetUse Monitor for the download - great app by the way)
    6) run 5.6 and setup port forwarding (Advanced-Port Mapping) for the other 2 ports (500 and 4500 UDP), update airport extreme
    7) that's it, I was able to connect to the VPN from my iPhone !
