Data Mapping with Hashes
I should add there is probably cleaner way to do this, but this was quick and simple and I'm on 5 hours sleep :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [noevil] Travis - Those who say it cannot be done are usually interrupted by someone else doing it; Give the wrong symptoms, get the wrong... -
Data Mapping with Hashes
Your region has is set up backwards, if you are storing "5" in your query hash, then you want your region hash to be 5 => Relay so you can then print, I only fixed that one for this example. use strict; my $data = "17 21 19 70 99 45 32 25 67 89 90 91 11 10 12 33 34 36 37"; my %region = ( 5... -
Paypal IPN Script Stopped Working After 2 Years
The problem is you are used to have a page file (or tmpfs if linux/unix) and that helps supplement your ram (or lack of). When you go to a VPS they disable page/tmpfs because they don't want people under buying ram and over utilizing the disk. You can run a basic linux box in 512M of ram but... -
Paypal IPN Script Stopped Working After 2 Years
I will say that either coloing your own server or getting a virtual private server is the way to go. You have to handle your own security and updates, but I prefer it that way. I had a VPS with burst.net for a few years (I think cost was $60 per year) and only moved it because I had my own... -
move files to dedicated directory based on filename
Assuming they are remote and you don't aren't running perl where they are stored locally? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [noevil] Travis - Those who say it cannot be done are usually interrupted by someone else doing it; Give the wrong symptoms, get the wrong solutions; -
Serach for txt files in a direcory and all subdirectories
would it be easier to just use -exec and cp? But I guess I'm assuming he doesn't want to keep the sub directory structure and just dumps them all into new dir? Just a thought :) I have never used cpio and had to man it to see what -pd did so I could understand your solution... -

Data parsing
Thanks.. I was struggling with that one for a bit, I figured I could figure out a split that would pick up the word before the : and then everything up to the word before the next :, but it was just killing me.... your seems so simple :) Thanks!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~... -
Data parsing
id:2 name:test1 longname:test2 with space longname description:here is my description.id:10 name:test3 longname:test 4 long name description:a discription of test 5 I have data like above and I'd like to get it into a hash like %hash { 'id:2' => {name => test1 longname => test2 with space... -
Net:::FTP interrupted
I would also wrap the whole think in a alarm, and when the alarm hits you could issue your stopftp command. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [noevil] Travis - Those who say it cannot be done are usually interrupted by someone else doing it; Give the wrong symptoms, get the wrong... -

Regex help
I have a regex written like this and it works fine $data = '01:16:43.7'; ($cdr{dhour}, $cdr{dmin}, $cdr{dsec}, $cdr{dfsec}) = $data =~ /(.*):(.*):(.*)(\..*)/; print "H:$cdr{dhour}\n"; print "M:$cdr{dmin}\n"; print "S:$cdr{dsec}\n"; print "fs:$cdr{dfsec}\n"; output: H:01 M:16 S:43 fs:.7 but... -
PCAP reader to mysql
$log->read("/Dump/m1.pcap"); does not look like it is on your desktop. You will have to deal with the spaces in windows files name, I suggest just keeping in a directory with no no spaces c:/blah/m1.pcap and reading it in like that "c:/blah/m1.pcap"... -
browser connection timing out
You will also have problems when people click the stop button, or the browser crashes, or their connection has a hiccup. I suggest taking the form values and storing them somewhere and assign a job ID (epoch? auto increment in a db?) and a status. Then have a local job running (cron, daemon... -
IO::File -> Filehandles -> Archive::Zip
I should add I found this to be a very good solution for some of my problems. I am creating data in a file to bulk load into mysql, so I was reading a file, writing it to another file, reading that file into SQL. A lot of disk read/writes. I moved it to read a file, write to /dev/shm, and... -

How to write a switch statement in perl
or you could do this which works for any number my %option = ( 2 => [a,b,c], 3 => [d,e,f]); my $isnum = '2'; for (@{$option{$isnum}}) { print "X:$_\n"; } if you really want switches http://perldoc.perl.org/Switch.html but I've never used them. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~... -

perl code running out of 2 GB VM limit
There are memory links related to par compiling and hashs/hash refs (I can't find where I read that at but I had the same problem). I ended up writing a wrapper program that calls my code (per pdf, kinda doing the same thing), and then all memory gets released back to the programs as the... -
