"Personal thoughts, ramblings, and nonsense from Drew, himself."

Something new…

New additions will take place at DeckerD. I will be adding more functionality, in my opinion. Something to make you want to come back (I hope!). I want to create a favorite section of some sort, photos section for my personal touch, and have been really thinking about a “Mini-Blog”. This way all the “technical” articles can be straight forward, and the “Mini-Blog” is more of a journal of some sort.

Favorites

The favorites section will consist of the not-so-typical download section. Don”t you hate those places that are filled with a bunch of software and crap, and you have the stupid pop-ups, including the software that you download, only to find out that there was “false advertising” and your freeware is shareware? So do I. That’’s why anything I share to download, either I use or find interesting and is free. When I say free, I mean not only free, but adware-free, spyware-free. Most of the programs I will am usually interested in are active open-source applications. Done for the most part. Will continually add more content, but this is an ongoing project. So, when I say done, I mean done with the concept.

Photo Gallery

I have been wanting to put some pictures online for quite some time, but without the whole community. I’d like to show people me, and friends, and just things I find interesting, but I don’t want them to go to some bogus site like PhotoBucket or something like that; I want it to be original, on my site, where I can administer it and know what’s going with my files. Done. Visit the gallery here.

The Mini-Blog

I’d really like to implement the mini-blog that I have been thinking about for around 5 months or so. The fact it, getting the interface to flow with my technical articles. DeckerD was a site intended for my professional and personal experiences. So, a mini-blog feature is in place, and I am getting everything together to make the site more of both sides of my life. Bad Idea.

Discussion always soothes thy heart.

Windows Fix: "Insufficient system resources exist to complete the API"
Ugh. Another Windows error. Another Windows error that really doesn’t tell you what is really wrong; some (most) people aren’t nerds. Don’t worry, I’ve got your fix right here. This has to do with memory on your Windows XP system. Have you tried Hibernating or putting your system into standby after upgrading your RAM? If you have, keep on reading. More...

Curing 'Symbolic link not allowed' (Apache 2.0)
Awhile back when trying to add a directory to Apache on my Ubuntu 6.06 LTS server, I ran into some issues. These issues, of course were the infamous 403 “Forbidden” error that your web barfs up when you try to access a server that is not publicly viewable, because of permission issues. I’m going to give you my scenario and explain how you can fix this issue, so that you don’t have to go through an hour of throwing your hands up in disgust. More...

VMWare: "Failed to create named-pipe directory" error
Have you ever received the Failed to create named-pipe directory error message via the vmware-mui error log files, and not able to access the VMWare Management Interface? If so, here’s the fix. More...

/bin/rm: Argument list too long
Removing gigs and gigs, or just alot, of unwanted “opened” email that often clutters the system. More...
