Fix Tomcat PermGen Space (Out of Memory)

Tomcat production server sometime will hit the following java.la ng.OutOfMemoryException: PermGen space error. java.la ng.OutOfMemoryException: PermGen space     at java.lang.ClassLoader.de fineClass1(Native Method)     at java.lang.ClassLoader.de fineClass(ClassLoader.java:620)     at java.security.SecureClassLoader.de fineClass(SecureClassLoader.java:124)  It’s usually happened when the Tomcat start and stop few times. It’s just funny, however you can fine tune it with some minor changes in the Tomcat configuration setting. By default, Tomcat assigned very little memory for the running process, the solution is actually quite simple. All you need todo are 1) create setenv.sh or setenv.bat (windows) 2) add this line if not already exist (depend on what os you are using)    Linux:      export set JAVA_OPTS="-Xms512m -Xmx2g"    Windows       set JAVA_OPTS="-Xms512m -Xmx2g" 3) Done. Restart Tomcat. Explanation: This error are occurs

Google's Image Search now faster with new update?

At last Google has updated its image searching feature. "We just redesigned Google Images to make it easier to move through a series of images—it's now faster, more reliable and lets the images do the talking" said Google on its official blog. The main feature of this update is you can quickly flip through the whole set of image previews using your keyboard, once you click the image. If you want to go back to looking at other search results, you can just scroll down and pick up right where you left off. To check out the website where the image is hosted, you can click on the photo or use the tools available. Google said that their new design is rolling out worldwide over the next few days. And they hope this update makes it easier and even a bit more fun to find the images we're looking for.

The Future Of Computing is Ubuntu Phone

As we are know, in the beginning of January 2013. Canonical announce their new project called Ubuntu Phone. From the beginning Ubuntu was just another Linux distro,  but now Canonical driving Ubuntu far beyond its beginnings as just another Linux distro into an Operating System that works on  television and even being  an android and iPhone competitor, Ubuntu is skating to where they puck is going to be. But, which such a bold move, there are significant obstacles to overcome. The soon to be released Ubuntu Phone is paving the way that all smart phones will eventually go. Back to the late  1943 where  computers were gigantic, filling rooms and requiring constant care and maintenance. Over time, the components required to build the computers become smaller and cheaper, till eventually it was possible to put one on your desk until the laptop computer, a smaller, more portable, but just as powerful machine was made and make it nearly obsolete. And then, come the smartphone era, wh

Throwing The Sun Tzu Baby Out With The InfoSec Bathwater

Steve Tornio and Brian Martin just published a  5,000 word rant  against anyone who dares utter the name Sun Tzu in connection with information security. According to Tornio and Martin, Sun Tzu – the principal strategic authority who’s seminal work has served to guide China’s military and civilian leadership for 2500 years, is “ not relevant to modern day InfoSec ” because  “information security is not warfare (leaving aside actual warfare, of course” . That’s a pretty huge stipulation considering that the People’s Republic of China has been heavily invested in information technology R&D to revolutionize both its Armed Forces and its civilian infrastructure simultaneously for the past 20 years or so. The same is true for the Russian Federation (sans Sun Tzu, of course). I’d love to hear either of these two gentlemen discuss where they make the distinction between InfoSec for the enterprise versus InfoSec as an “expression of warfare by other means” (to paraphrase Clausewitz)

PlayStation Store faster with new Update, patch is 26MB in size

Sony has issued a small update to the new PlayStation Store, one that's aimed at improving your browsing experience by speeding up navigation. The patch is, not surprisingly, rather small, weighing in at 26MB, and pushes the app to version 1.02. Some report that after the patch, load times for the Store are still pretty slow, but overall wait times have been shortened, especially when you're moving between pages. The new PlayStation Store launched last year and  got off to a rough start , though such things are to be expected. The new design was intended to make the Store more intuitive, though it seems that slowness persisted even after the new look went live. Source:   Eurogamer Section:   Sony Consoles

Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zero

During PAX Prime, Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes director Hideo Kojima presented fans with 11 combined minutes of both cinematics and gameplay footage of the Konami developed title. Ground Zeroes (yes, Zero is pluralized) was announced to be the prologue to Metal Gear Solid 5 . Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes stars the original Snake, who has a helicopter that allows him to zip around the world and take on missions in any country he's needed. View slideshow: Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes screens The English subtitled demo opens with kids in rain-soaked cages are presumably being turned into soldiers by men that are clearly 'bad guys'. After receiving reports of an agent held in Cuba with info that could undermine their child training regime, the operatives of XOF board a helicopter in order to 'silence' her. As their chopper leaves, the camera cuts to view Big Boss making his way onto their base. This is an older, grey-haired Snake
