When you are trying to access the Typo3 install console you need to create an empty file called “ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL” within /typo3conf/ folder. In some cases Typo3 deletes this file everytime you want to access the install console.
You can solve this by editing the file and insert the line “KEEP_FILE”. After that, try to access the install console again and it will work.

If your Typo3 back end is broken (looks messy like the css is missing) after you did an update of your Typo3 installation (f.e. from version 4.1.3 to 4.4.1) head over to the /typo3conf/ext folder and look for an extension called “mn_ff3_be_bugfix”. Back it up to your local computer and then delete it on your webserver. Now load the back end again and now it should work.
This topic is not totally new to me. I think 2 or 3 years ago I found this list from the EFF (Electronic Frontier Foundation) but then I lost the topic. I recovered it while reading about printed documents being used in a lawsuit as a demonstration on origin finding with imprinted tracking dots, more common know as watermarks. The EFF still features this list of printers which do or do not imprint those tracking stuff.
So if you need to print some really private documents you should get your hands on one of those printers first.
Erhaltet ihr folgende Fehlermeldung wenn ihr via Windows Sicherung einen Systemreparaturdatenträger (kann das Wort mal einer für Glücksrad vorschlagen ?) erstellen wollt,
Systemreparaturdatenträger kann nicht erstellt werden – Falscher Parameter (0×80070057)
dann liegt es daran, dass der SPTD Treiber (der die Kommunikation zwischen Windows 7 und eurem CD/DVD Brenner regelt) nicht mehr aktuell ist.
I have been a Servage customer for about 4 years and I have to say that I was generally satisfied with them. You get a bunch of hosting (750 GB space, 7500 GB transfer, 1000 MySQL DB´s, fast support) for a really cheap price.

Naturally you can´t have everthing for that price. The most important constraints from my point of view are :
slow database performance
FTP problems (I guess caused by the cluster structure)
Webdrive doesn´t work stable and reliable
strange behaviour of the hosting itself from time to time (timeouts, http errors)
The good definitely is :
a lot of webspace for a cheap price
unlimited and directory lockable FTP accounts
very very very fast support ticket system (not always helpful in the 1st step, but mostly in the 2nd)
BUT – things at Servage got worse, starting in the 2nd half of 2009. The strange behaviour of the hosting itself increased, the performance of the db´s got even worse (leading to complete timeouts and not acceptable latency (especially when hosting a wordpress blog)) and the support started delivering lower quality help than before. Additionally they changed their Admin Panel and made it look in a common Web 2.0 style. Good for the look, bad for the features. Some really useful features (like selecting the destination when moving a file / dir) got lost and due to the bad performance the Admin Panel needed a lot of manually reloading. Too often just a blank page was presented.
The 30th of march 2010 (and the following 2!!! weeks) were my darkest days with Servage. I don´t know what happened, but I guess some of their storage clusters crashed and so my account was gone.
Yes, not a single website, the whole account with a dozen websites and many stuff hosted for about 30 users. But – as always – not everything had gone away. Some websites were partially accessible, some files could be backed up via FTP, others not, a connection to some db´s was possible, to others not. So far bad enough but the support didn´t managed it for 3 days to realize (or to admit) that something is terribly wrong with my account.
This was the most funny reply from a Servage supporter :

Your rating of this reply:
Hello Sebastian,
This is a script error as I can see from http://hyperpac.info/users/steff/_kh_mod/index.php
I request you to install an updated version of the script please.
Thank you!
Kind Regards

Right now, I can laugh about this but at the time being I nearly crashed my screen. And I received this reply at a time where the account was totally fucked up.
Anyway – Servage needed about 2 weeks to fix this. In the end all the data could be restored but it cemented my decision to leave Servage (which has grown in the last year). Now the site is hosted on a virtual server at German´s hoster 1&1 (1und1) and let´s see how it goes.
My first impression is good :
great performance
unlimited traffic
stable Plesk & Virtuozzo integration
but :
their support is so damn slow (2 – 4 business days) in comparison to Servage (less than 10 minutes in most cases)
only 40 GB webspace
3 times as expensive as Servage (but to be fair – this is a real server, Servage was only shared hosting)

I used this big relocation to update the blog to a new theme and some smaller changes will follow. After moving like a dozen very different wordpress blogs from on server to another I could aquire a bunch of knowledge about it and I´ll post it soon in another article.
Seit dem Update auf Version 3.6.2 hat mein Firefox beim Beenden die offenen Fenster und Tabs nicht mehr gespeichert. Startete ich den Browser neu, saß ich jedesmal vor einem leeren Browserfenster, ohne all die wichtigen Tabs um die ich mich noch kümmern wollte. Glaubte ich zu erst an ein Problem im Profil, so hat sich eine einfache Einstellung als die Ursache erwiesen. Ich kann mich nicht erinnern, dass ich es selbst umgestellt habe, deswegen gebe ich einfach mal dem Update die Schuld.
Nur wenn bei “Einstellungen -> Allgemein -> Wenn Firefox gestartet wird -> Fenster und Tabs der letzten Sitzung anzeigen” ausgewählt ist, speichert Firefox auch die offenen Tabs / Fenster fürs nächste Mal.
Tja, so einfach kann es sein, man muss es halt nur wissen…

Since I´ve updated my Firefox to version 3.6.2 it doesn´t save my tabs / windows when I close it. Everytime I restart the browser I only got an empty browser window and all the nice tabs I wanted to take care of were gone. At first I believed that there might be a problem with my Firefox profile, but it was just a simple setting. I can´t remember having changed it so I blame it on the update.
The solution is quite simple. Navigate yourself to “Tools -> Options -> General -> When Firefox starts” and select the following “Show my windows and tabs from last time”.
And yes, the next time you start Firefox all your tabs are there…life can be so easy.
Update : YouTube removed the old video due to some copyright issuses. So I placed a new version below.
This is the 2nd time within 2 weeks that I feel ashamed of being german. The designated EU commissioner Günther Oettinger tries to speak english in a press conference after a first EU hearing.
A guy with an english like him shouldn´t represent something at all…
“We can not allow that everybody does as he pleases…”
Update : I had to disable the plugin because it causes my Safari browser on the iPhone to crash. I´m not quite sure who to blame – the browser or the plugin, but I´ll try to find out soon.

WordPress and I are never going to be close friends but PageView got us a bit closer. With the help of this little plugin you can easily embedded websites into your post or pages without any pain in the ass. WordPress doesn´t allow direct iframe integration so this might help solve your problem.
You can customize the look & feel of the embedded website by changing the “pageview.css” file within the PageView plugin directory.

Und hier nochmal der Text zum Nachlesen :
—
Wie, wie reizend!
Wie reizend …
Wie schön!
Ich muss sagen, es ist wirklich eine Ehre, hier zu sein.
Ich möchte das Reizende akzeptieren … aus Dresden.
Ich weiß nicht, ob, ob Michael das gewusst hat.
Sie wissen …
Er gab uns 39 …
Er gab sein Herz für die Menschen …
Die Leute tanzten bei ihm.
Und, äh, oftmals blieben sie noch bis zum nächsten Tag.
Er freut sich, dass er so viel den Menschen hat geben können.
Und seine Tschäritie!
Von der er so viel gegeben hat.
Äh, er hatte ein großes Herz, und das hat er den Menschen gegeben.
Es zeigt die Güte.
Sein Herz war soo groß!
Er dachte… alles.
… Meine Mutter, mein Bruder.
Auch in anderen verschiedenen Ländern.
Meine Mutter würde, äh, schreien!
Mein, äh, Bruder würde schreien … meine Schwester.
Lass uns dafür etwas tun!
Äh, er würde sagen: …Machen wir eine Spende.
Und wir sollten den Kindern helfen.
Kindern, die Liebe brauchen … und das in einem sehr … in einem jungen Alter, sehr jungen Alter.
… zu spielen, sich mit ihnen sich hinsetzen.
Und er würde sagen: Ihr könnt noch jünger werden!
Ihr könnt jünger bleiben.
Kommt herein, seid mit mir eine Familie. Das würde er sagen.
Ich danke wirklich allen von Ihnen. In seinem Namen.
Sein Lächeln lächeln! Das ist mit uns hier.
Äh, ich danke Ihnen so sehr! Äh, ich … das ist wunderbar!
Dankeschön!

Ich denke unsere Rundfunk- und Fernsehgebühren sind hoch genug, damit sich das MDR einen anständigen Übersetzer leisten kann.
I’ve added some photos from the Max Herre concert in Erfurt to the photo gallery. It was a nice show and Clueso showed up too. He performed 2 songs with Max.
The annoying fact of the evening was that digital cameras weren’t allowed by the local presenter Zughafen. They couldn’t provide the legal terms for the show but refused to let us in with Steffs digital camera. I’m still mad about it because it’s big ass presenter behaviour on the one hand (no cams and stuff) and on the other hand they should at least be able to provide the legal terms or print a notice on the tickets. So the security guys had a strange definition of how “big” a digital camera can be. Steff’s obviously was too big and so we had to take it back to the car. As a result of that the quality is not too good…only iPhone picz.
Well this is part 2 of my personal driver odyssey with Windows XP 64bit. I own a T-Mobile web’n'walk Stick 3. Without branding it´s a Huawei E170 and – important at a later point of this article – similiar to a iCON 225 USB HSDPA / HSUPA modem.
The problem :
After installing Windows XP 64bit the usb modem doesn´t work. Installing the provided drivers directly from the device (the device is also a USB mass storage) is without any sense, cause it comes without any 64bit drivers.
If you´re lucky the device is listed as not working in the device manager. If you aren´t then it simply doesn´t appear.
The software (T-Mobile Internet Manager) will install anyway (together with the not compatible drivers) but it will probably say something like “Device not found / or device not connected” although the stick is connected and may as well blink blue (HSPA) or green (EDGE).
The solution (might differ for every particular case) :
0.) Plug your web’n'walk Stick into a USB port of your pc. Update the firmware of the web’n'walk Stick with the software from the T-Mobile webpage (can be found here).
1.) Install the drivers and the software directly from the updated stick and restart your pc.
2.) Start the T-Mobile Internet Manager, check if the device is recognized and if you can connect. If so, congratulations, this one was easy for you. If not – continue with step 3.
3.) Download the iCON 225 device drivers (can be found here – Driver Installer 4.0.17.0) and extract it to a folder on your disk.
4.) Uninstall the T-Mobile Internet Manager and restart your pc.
5.) Install the iCON 225 driver, by using the \TcpSchema 2\without service\x64\DriverInstall.msi from the folder where you extracted your iCON driver. Restart your pc.
6.) Open the device manager and check if the USB mass storage device (aka the stick) has a yellow exclamation mark. If so, unplug the stick from the usb port, wait a moment and reconnect it (the exclamation mark should disappear afterwards).
7.) Now install the T-Mobile Internet Manager by using the setup.exe directly from the usb sticks T-Mobile Internet Manager folder. Restart your pc.
8.) Start the T-Mobile Internet Manager and yesssssssss now the device is recognized and you can connect.
Have fun !!!
Appendix :
These 2 Huawei devices must appear in your device manager. Otherwise the stick won´t work at all. In some cases you might see these devices already after installing the inital drivers and software from the stick (Step 1), but marked as not working with yellow exclamation marks. In this case, ETNA will help you out. ETNA is a user developed driver by Maysi2k originally designed to bring a web’n'walk Stick to live with Windows Vista x64. But ETNA also proved suitable for some Windows XP x64 installations.
Howto :
0.) Download and extract ETNA to a folder on your disk.
1.) Open the device manager, choose the yellow marked device(s) – (you have to do it one by one).
2.) Update Driver and give Windows the folder you extracted ETNA to search for newer versions.
3.) Windows will automatically install the ETNA drivers for the appropriate device.
4.) Repeat these steps until all the Huawei devices are no longer marked as not working.
