Silly networker error message

This has been bugging me for a while. Every so often after I get a waiting for tape message which is then handeled it get

NetWorker media request: (critical) Waiting for 0 writable volume(s) to backup pool ‘Daily’ tape on

Huh? I suppose strictly I should go and remove all writable volumes(s) from the pool

PHP5 + Mostwanted

I’ve recently upgraded from PHP4 to PHP5 to allow me to test out a couple of web apps on the same machine that runs things blog. All in all it went well, had to specify timezone in a config file for some of the code I’ve done myself – and my TV recording system doesn’t do the full list of items to record (will fix at some point). It also borked the most wanted panel on this blog.

Anyway I have a fix for this now – simply call mostwanted using these two lines of php:
$mostwanted = new MostWanted; $mostwanted->mostwanted(7, 30, true);
in replace of
MostWanted::mostwanted(7, 30, true);

Ghostscript Issues

Ghostscript in etch produces dodgy pdf files (at least on the 3 or 4 I’ve made). Current version is 8.15.1. PDF files work fine in Linux but not using acrobat reader on windows.

However sarge seems fine. Ghost script version in sarge is 7.07.1

Hmm wondering if its a fault with GS 8, will have to keep an eye on this.
