Gzip with --rsyncable

Hey guys
I'm in need of the --rsyncable option in gzip but apparently its been dropped in the latest versions. I've been using it in previous distros because of the decreased rsync'ing time.
I've done a bit of searching but I'm not finding where the upstream dev work on gzip gets organised.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Or is there anyone who knows how to get the option back?

The patch doesnt' seem to work.
patching file deflate.c
Hunk #8 FAILED at 687.
1 out of 10 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file deflate.c.rej
patching file gzip.c
patching file gzip.h
Hunk #2 FAILED at 283.
1 out of 2 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file gzip.h.rej
patching file trees.c
This also happens after specifically *not* applying the other patch mentioned in the PKGBUILD, gzip-fixutimens.patch.
I'll give it another bash in the morning. I might be doing something silly and I need some sleep.
Thanks phrakture

GZIP with kXML?

I've got a problem, because I'd like to use GZIP with:
http://www.tinyline.com/utils/index.html
which gives me String of data.
After data's unzipped I'd like to parse it by Pull-parsing kXML, but...
kXML needs InputStream to initialize and I've got String from GZIP. Is that possible to change String into InputStream or initialize kXML with String?
please help..

Gzip with servlet

Hi,
I am facing a problem with servlet which compresses the MS Excel files in gzip format,
when i try opening the Template.gz file using winzip or gzip.exe,it throws me an error as either " invalid zip file" or " archive directory not valid"
Can someone pls help in resolving this porblem,
Its very very urgent for me to solve this problem,
My servlet code snippest is as below,
I am using Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 to download template.gz file which supports gzip and deflate formats,

Is it possible to implement compression like gzip with the labview web server?

I am currently implementing a web page to be served by the NI sbRIO 9636. I was able to get html, css, and js served just fine. I am curious if there is a way to implement gzip compression to help with page load times?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Ok, a couple points:
I have heard it discussed that you can in theory install a webserver on the Linux-based cRIO. But there is a great big caveat: I have never done it, or spoken to anyone who did so I don't know how well it would actually work.
Given the inexpensive price of hardware these days a safer alternative would be to include a separate computer the sole function of which is to host the web interface. There are many small computers that would be ideal for this application -- many of which were originally designed to work in home-theater applications.
The point of my post was that there are certain limitations in the LV webserver that you may have to find your way around.

Replace bzip2 and gzip with pbzip2 and pigz system wide?

I just now got word of these multithreaded ports and would like to know if theres anyway to replace their single threaded brethren? pigz is already in AUR and it wouldn't take much to put pbzip2 into it either.
Maybe some global variable should be set?
Edit: Strike the part about pbzip2. It's already in community

I just did some testing by downloading the Linux kernel source, and then using bzip2 and pbzip2 to decompress and recompress it several times. In another terminal window I monitored the speed of each CPU core by running:
watch 'cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep MHz'
What I found out was that yes, the files created by either tool will be able to be decompressed with the other. However, if you use pbzip2 to decompress a file compressed with the regular bzip2, it will only use one core. Only when decompressing a file that was compressed with pbzip2 did pbzip2 use both CPU cores.

Uusing gzip with ALUI 6.1

I have a vanilla portal that I would like to perform some benchmarking on and I have been unable to find any documentation that describes how to enable gzip to compress components in the portal.
My environment is ALUI 6.1 MP1, WebLogic Server 9.2, and Oracle 10g database.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thank you,

i think you want to look into mod_deflate for apache.
basically the compression is done by the app server, not WCI.

How can i use GZip combined with NIO?

Hi All,
I have a nio client that connects a client (HTTP) and request something. I need my client to Accept-Encoding: gzip - but how will i be able to read the data into my ByteBuffer?
I don't have a problem reading, cause it's bytes after all, but i will have a problem (i guess) determining when the reading is complete - when it finished. If i'm reading HTTP, for instance, i know i should finish reading after receiving \r\n\r\n. How should i do it for gzip info?
Thanks,
Snayit

When i'm reading the HTTP i receive Content-Length X but actualy is sends the X with Y bytes (i guess it's a key, about to check in the API).
Is there a way to combine the GZip with NIO?

Missing Images Grey Box with ?

Have tried drills to view inserted images in 4-page Pages doc, going thru Finder to view, reinsertion of images, trashed com.apple.iwork.Pages.plist,,reinstalled iworks '05 CD, upgraded to 1.0.2, read copious discussions from gurus, still no joy. Images I inserted still there, elusive as ever which remain hidden with that ugly "X" and "?" when reopening doc. Am Mac addict from day one, average Mac user, not tech guru, programmer, developer but need step by step instruction for my low-level 83-year-old comprehension. Pages works o.k. with glitches but the missing image grey box with X and ? reared its ugly head last April and still with me on occasion. Finish 4-page Pages monthly Newsletter 5 meg doc with about 15 inserted jpeg images, "save as" for local distribution printing plus "pdf" for e-mail transmission, print it but when reopening doc after closing I get the grey box with X and ? for my inserted images and have to start over. Images I inserted originally still there opening thru Fiinder viewing "Package Content". Ran G5 Hardware CD test, no problem. From discussions I noted one solution that worked by uncompressing "index.xml.gz" file. Tried that with Stuffitt which didn't work. Am unable to view to see if my images were corrupted as the Discussion Guru "Sylvain Pedneault" outlined on Sep 15, 05, that his images had property sf:corrupt="true". Could be that's my problem if I knew how to determine and fix. I've hit a firewall and am patiently waiting for Apple Pages gurus to resolve this issue still unresolved which I'm confident they will, but at my age I don't buy green bananas. My frustration level is maxed out and will appreciate help in simple step by step language as a work-around until Apple Pages comes thru with upgrade. If I make it thru the Pearly Gates, not guaranteed, I'll put in a good word for the Guru who can resolve my problem!! Thanks.

Hello Jim,
If you want to uncompress a "index.xml.gz" file, try this way:
a) Copy the "index.xml.gz" file to your desktop, so you are not working with the original file.
b) Start from "Applications/Utilities" the program "Terminal".
c) In the terminal window, type: gunzip (with a space after it).
d) Grap the "index.xml.gz" file from the dektop and drop it over the terminal window.
e) Hit the return key.
Now you have a "index.xml" file, which you can open with a text editor.
To compress the file, do the following:
a) In the terminal window. type: gzip (with a space after it).
b) Grap the "index.xml" file from the dektop and drop it over the terminal window.
c) Hit the return key.
The file should be compressed.
To make the template readable for Pages, do the following:
a) Copy the original "index.xml.gz" file from the template package folder (not to the desktop) to have a backup.
b) Now copy the "index.xml.gz" file from the desktop (the one you have edited) to the template package folder and overwrite the original.
Please let us know, what you find out.

GZIP and External command.

Hello,
My problem might seem simple but I have tried for a couple of days now to make researches on that matter and it still doesn't work, no matter what.
I had to make, with SM69, two external commands. One was using the command "mv" which is working very well and the other must be a "gzip" with a parameter "-c" and, in a module function, with the function "SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE_LONG", I have to send the path and the file name.
So since I am not able to make it work in the module function I'm creating, I am working to make it work on SM69. So here what I have entered so far...
Operating System Command: gzip
Parameters for operating sytem command: -c
Additional parameters: path/file.txt > newpath/file.txt.gz
Though, the only thing I am receiving is no change at all and I'm receiving u2039 È ®J as a message. The Exit code is at 1 and the exit status is E.
I know it means there is something wrong but all my researches lead me to do it that way so I'm not sure where I am going wrong and how to make it work appropriately.
Can you please help me?
I am open to questions if you have any.
Thank you

Configuring GZip for OracleAS Portal

How do you configure gzip with OracleAS portal.
Currently i have added the gzip jar file in my application, and configured the same through the Web.xml file as
<filter>
<filter-name>Compress</filter-name>
<filter-class>com.appln.GZIPFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>Compress</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/portal</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
However the GZipFilter class is not getting invoked.
I think the problem is the the way the url-pattern is written.
Can someone please tell me how could this be written, so that the gzip utility is activated.
Regards,
Mukta

Mutt with qzip patch

Hey guys,
I'd like to use gzip with mutt.
I've only tried applying a patch with a PKGBUILD a couple of times, and never did get the hang of it.
Here is the PKGBUILD, and here is the patch.
Little help, please? :-)

Thanks.
I thought of that, and even tried it--but I had some problems converting my mutt config to muttng. There's a perl conversion script floating around somewhere, but it didn't do anything that I could tell. If no one has a magic wand they can wave over my .muttrc and .mutt/ directory, I'll look at the muttng PKGBUILD for patching hints.
magic wand? anyone?

Database backup on tape

Hi All,
I am trying to backup the database using tar command on tape storage.
server is sun solaris and tape storage is LTO4 (1.7TB)
I want to tar with zip directly to the tape but couldn't find any option in solaris to zip with tar like we are having ( tar -cvzf in linux).
could anyone please guide me how to achieve that?
if i have to use unix PIPE (|) with the tar command to take it directly to tape then what should be the command?
Thanks

First of all I didn't see you writing you did shutdown the database before backups are made.
Make sure the database is shutdown, or you backups are totally useless !!!
The default UNIX tar as installed on Sun and e.g. AIX doesn't support instant compressing by calling gzip with the -z option.
Take a look at http://www.gnu.org or even better at: http://www.sunfreeware.com and download the GNU tar
Install it on your server, usually it will be installed in /usr/local/bin. Use that tar command for your backup as it does support the -z option.
Make sure 'gzip' is in your search PATH
On the other hand I am wondering why you would gzip the database file before putting them on tape.
Is it to save tape storage ??
Nowadays tape devices have their own hardware compression, making to unnecessary to compress the files on forehand.

Timeline color missing (no grey at every 5)

Node.js: running "npm help term " not working since upgrade to 0.8.3

Running
npm help <command>
usually displays npm's man page on <command>. And if the the command doesn't exist, npm will show a "top hits" list of related commands.
But since upgrading to 0.8.3, running it will always show the "top hits" list, even for existing commands.
After digging around I found that the problem is the man files that npm uses in /usr/lib/node_modules/npm/man are gzipped (with filenames like install.1.gz) which breaks npm since npm is expecting ungizipped filenames.
After further digging, it seems that the gzipping of npm's man pages was only added in node 0.8.2-2
So, basically just checking if anyone has this same problem (and confirming it's not a problem with upstream) before submitting it to bugs.archlinux.org

The man command should handle gzipped or non-zipped man pages just fine. I'm not sure if there is an official standard, but packages are free to use gz'ed or non-zipped man pages - they both work just fine. If it's not an official standard recommendation, though, gzipped man pages have become so common that they are almost a 'de facto' standard. But package managers (at least pacman) do not gzip the man pages. This is generally handled upstream or in the packages Makefile.
But, more to the point for the present issue, while man can open either format of page, if you give a full path, you must include the extension. Example:
$pacman -Ql bash | grep man
bash /usr/share/man/
bash /usr/share/man/man1/
bash /usr/share/man/man1/bash.1.gz
bash /usr/share/man/man1/bashbug.1.gz
$ man bash #works
$ man /usr/share/man/man1/bash.1.gz #works
$ man /usr/share/man/man1/bash.1
man: /usr/share/man/man1/bash.1: No such file or directory
No manual entry for /usr/share/man/man1/bash.1
.... er ... I just installed this again and did some tinkering. Most of what I've said is true (and perhaps someday useful) but currently irrelevant. Npm does not use `man` at all. It just echo's it's help information directly to the terminal.
Perhaps the syntax has changed since the last version you used, but it seems to be doing just what it is supposed to:
$ npm help
Usage: npm <command>
where <command> is one of:
... <snip> ...
npm <cmd> -h quick help on <cmd>
npm -l display full usage info
npm faq commonly asked questions
npm help <term> search for help on <term>
npm help npm involved overview
Specify configs in the ini-formatted file:
/home/jmcclure/.npmrc
or on the command line via: npm <command> --key value
Config info can be viewed via: npm help config
[email protected] /usr/lib/node_modules/npm
$ npm help cache
Top hits for "cache"
npm help cache cache:23
npm help config cache:20
npm help folders cache:7
npm help pack cache:2
npm help index cache:2
npm help changelog cache:1
(run with -l or --long to see more context)
$ npm cache -h
npm cache add <tarball file>
npm cache add <folder>
npm cache add <tarball url>
npm cache add <git url>
npm cache add <name>@<version>
npm cache ls [<path>]
npm cache clean [<pkg>[@<version>]]
Note in the first output it specifies that "npm help <term>" is only supposed to search for the term and return the top-listing list while "npm <command> -h" is the syntax to view the help information for a given command.

Problem with Compression (Deflater & GZip)

Hi All,
I've large data as a String which I need to save in Oracle in VARCHAR2 column. As Varchar2 allows maximum of 4000 characters, I wish to compress this String and save in DB.
I tried to compress the String using Delfater and GZip. In both methods I uses Streams concep (DeflaterOutputStream, GZipOutputStream) and both Classes have the option to return the Compressed data in byte[] and String format.
When I returned in String format, the same String is giving error while decompressing "java.util.zip.ZipException: incorrect data check". How to solve this problem.
When I tried to save the compressed String in DB (Oracle),
initially I got the error "java.sql.SQLException: Malformed SQL92 string at position: 1109"
and later I tried to save like this 'strCompressed.replace("'","''") i.e., I replaced all single quotes to 2-single quotes and the error message is "java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00911: invalid character".
Is there any character to replace in the compressed String. and how to solve the problem with decompression.
Please help me in this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Pavan Pinnu.

both Classes have the option to return the Compressed data in byte[] and String format.Don't do that. String is not a container for binary data. You can't use it for compressed data. Use the byte[], send the byte[] to the database, get it back from the database, uncompress it, and then turn that back into a String.
