Comment on Getting Started (for Free!) with Amazon Elastic Cloud Computing (EC2) by Danny

I should also mention that after a good 15 minutes or more of Googling “cloud computing” etc. this is the only thing I found that actually talks about moving from virtual hosting to cloud computing, instead of comparing it against maintaining your own servers on-site. That may have to do with the fact that I (embarrassingly?) never knew the term “virtual hosting”.

This is an absolutely awesome series of articles. It’s exactly what I was looking for: Someone to get in the water first and tell me “The water’s great! Come on in!”. For those of us who aren’t server nerds, but are still techies of some sort and could eventually figure all this out, it saves A LOT of time that would otherwise be spent drooling and staring blankly into the computer screen.

Comment on When OAuth Goes Wrong: Debugging Signature Mismatch Issues in PHP by Trey Jones

Trey Jones — Tue, 30 Aug 2011 15:47:38 +0000

I want to thank you almost 1 year after you wrote this for pointing me to the netflix tester, and also for making a mention of not encoding things the proper amount of times.

In fact my final problem was this: instead of having key->value pairs encoded correctly for SBS ——

encode(key)+’='+encode(value)

I had done this:

encode(key+value) such that the ‘=’ was encoded twice along with the rest of the string (this made sense to me!)

And thank you also for taking such a disdainful tone toward the signature generation process. It has been a royal pain in my ass for about 24 hours. I think I dreamt of it last night. For all the massive amounts of specifics in the oauth documentation, it’s really not specific enough.

Comment on How to Point a Domain to an Amazon EC2 Virtual Server by Reader

‘which uses the tag’
should have said ‘which uses the META tag’
(but the editor stripped out the original ‘meta’ because I’d enclosed it in angle-brackets – guess it strips out HTML).

(1) Quick and dirty solution, which may work depending on how your application makes any references to other parts of the site…
Create a very simple index.html in the web root which uses the tag to immediately (after 0 seconds) to ‘refresh’ the page, specifying a different URL (the one for your application)
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meta_refresh

(2) Specify the web root directory (or a new virtual host, which is effectively the host’s name and web root directory, if you have more than one site being served by the web server) in the web server (e.g. Apache) configuration file.
This is just a few lines in a configuration file in Apache which says something like… for ‘this’ host name use ‘this directory’ as the root directory.
You can find examples with a quick Google search.
