Fortunately, there is a quick fix for this.

Download the magento clean up tool (a php file) and upload to your store root folder.

Once done, browse to the clean up tool (http://www.yourstore.com/magento-cleanup.php) and you will see a list of messages that it has reset the folder permission.

Here’s how to install chinese language for the admin

1. go to magento connect and install the below 2.0 extension key

http://connect20.magentocommerce.com/community/Locale_Mage_community_zh_CN

2. Once installed, check your app\locale and you will see a lot of csv files in the folder. Those files are created by the extension… in the wrong folder!

3. Create a folder ‘zh_CN‘ in app\locale and move all the csv files in app\locale to app\locale\zh_CN

4. Once done, go back to admin page and flush your cache (system -> cache management -> flush magento cache)

5. Change the language to chinese (china) and you should be able to view it in chinese (hopefully)

1. check page.xml in app\design\frontend\default\[yourtemplate]\layout and verify if the following line is in place.

\\app\design\frontend\default\[yourtemplate]\layout\page.xml

2. open *.phtml in app\design\frontend\default\magikjewellery\template\page and verify if the following line is after the tag

\\app\design\frontend\default\[yourtemplate]\template\page\1column.phtml
\\app\design\frontend\default\[yourtemplate]\template\page\1columnhome.phtml
\\app\design\frontend\default\[yourtemplate]\template\page\2columns-left.phtml
\\app\design\frontend\default\[yourtemplate]\template\page\2columns-right.phtml
\\app\design\frontend\default\[yourtemplate]\template\page\print.phtml

...

<!--?php echo $this--->getChildHtml('after_body_start') ?&gt;
...

3. clear your cache by going to admin -> system -> cache management and flush magento cache

4. open your home page, right click on it and select view source and check if the following codes are generated.

<!-- BEGIN GOOGLE ANALYTICS CODE -->
<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
    (function() {
        var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;
        ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';
        (document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0] || document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0]).appendChild(ga);
    })();

    var _gaq = _gaq || [];

_gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-1234567-7']);
_gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);

//]]>
</script>
<!-- END GOOGLE ANALYTICS CODE -->

As discussed in this tutorial (though it is for symfony 1.2, it will works in 1.4), the key thing is to set a post validator to validate values after the initial validation.

Assuming you have two fields – one checkbox and one textfield.
And you want the textfield to be filled in if the checkbox is ticked.

Here’s how you do it.

// lib\form\doctrine\MyForm.class.php

class MyForm extends BaseContestForm
{
  public function configure()
  {

    // add a post validator
    $this->validatorSchema->setPostValidator(
      new sfValidatorCallback(array('callback' => array($this, 'validateTextField')))
    );

  }

  public function validateTextField($validator, $values)
  {
    if ($values['myCheckbox'])
    {
      $this->validatorSchema['myTextField'] = new sfValidatorString(array(
          'required'   => true,
          'max_length' => 50,
          'min_length' => 1
        ));
    }

    return $values;
  }

}

Here’s an example of how it will looks like when the thumbnail is showing on the listing page.

Before you add it in, you need to check the variable name of the row that the admin generator uses.

To check the variable name, go to the cache folder for the module and open the _list.php file with a notepad.
Take note of the row

\\cache\backend\dev\modules\autoContestphoto\templates\_list.php
...
        <?php foreach ($pager->getResults() as $i => $contest_photo): $odd = fmod(++$i, 2) ? 'odd' : 'even' ?>
          <tr class="sf_admin_row <?php echo $odd ?>">
            <?php include_partial('contestphoto/list_td_batch_actions', array('contest_photo' => $contest_photo, 'helper' => $helper)) ?>
            <?php include_partial('contestphoto/list_td_tabular', array('contest_photo' => $contest_photo)) ?>
            <?php include_partial('contestphoto/list_td_actions', array('contest_photo' => $contest_photo, 'helper' => $helper)) ?>
          </tr>
        <?php endforeach; ?>
...

In my case, the variable name for the row is $contest_photo

Next, create a partial call _thumbnail.php in the template folder of the module.
In this partial, echo the path of the thumbnail or the photo with a img html tag

\\apps\backend\modules\contestphoto\templates\_thumbnail.php
<img src="<?php echo $contest_photo->getThumbnailPath() ?>"/>

Then, edit the generator file to include the _thumbnail column for your list

\\apps\backend\modules\contest\config\generator.yml

...

      list:
        title: Contest Photo Management
        display: [=title, contest, category, user, title, isDeleted, _thumbnail]
        sort: [created_at, desc]
        max_per_page: 50

...

Clear your cache and see if the thumbnail loads.

Call to undefined method myUser::setReferer.

and if you are using sfGuard plugin, go to

apps\[project]\lib\myUser.class.php

and change

class myUser extends sfBasicSecurityUser
{
}

to

class myUser extends sfGuardSecurityUser
{
}

Thus, you need to add your public IP address in fontend_dev.php to tell symfony to let you through in the production environment. Here’s how to do it

In your fontend_dev.php file, put in the below line to print out your public ip address

echo $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']. "<br/>"

Access frontend_dev.php and copy the IP address as shown.

Edit frontend_dev.php and change the line

if (!in_array(@$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], array('127.0.0.1', '::1')))

to

if (!in_array(@$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], array('127.0.0.1', '::1', '111.222.333.444')))

Where 111.222.333.444 is the IP address you copied.

Upload back the frontend_dev.php and try again

The first time to check is to ensure the below codes are output first

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";

And then to debug the error, simply add the below line(preferably after the above code).

use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);

Googled a bit and found out a couple of solutions such as using a custom log4j classes, which create a seperate thread when being called in quartz scheduler.

I find that it is too complex and had try several ways to recreate the log file inside Quartz.

And finally came up with this one line of code.

Before I begin, let’s take a look at my log4j config.
This log4j config will create a simple console system out logger and also a FileAppender logger.
For my case, I want to re-create a new log file whenever this job is run.

log4j.rootLogger=INFO, stdout
log4j.additivity.stdout=false
log4j.additivity.joblog=false
log4j.appender.ROOT.layout.ConversionPattern=[%d] %t %c %-5p - %m%n

#console
log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %p - %m%n

#per job execution log
log4j.logger.com.yourcompany=INFO, joblog
log4j.appender.joblog=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.joblog.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.joblog.File=../jobtemp.log
log4j.appender.joblog.Append=false
log4j.appender.joblog.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %p - %m%n

and here’s the schedule job

public class ScheduleJob implements StatefulJob {

	private static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(ScheduleJob.class);

	public void startJob() throws SchedulerException{
		Scheduler scheduler =
			StdSchedulerFactory.getDefaultScheduler();
		scheduler.start();
	}

	public void execute(JobExecutionContext context)
		throws JobExecutionException {

		//reset log4j config for FileAppender
		PropertyConfigurator.configure("../conf/log4j.properties");

		RunJobImmediately newJob  = new RunJobImmediately();
		newJob.performJob();

	}

	public static void main(String args[]){
    	try{
    		ScheduleJob scheduleJob = new ScheduleJob();
    		scheduleJob.startJob();

		}catch(Exception e){
			logger.error(e);
		}
	}
}

and finally the one line of code to recreate the log file.
Apparently, this line will somehow ‘reload’ the log4j  utitlies, which thus recreate the FileAppender logger to re-create the log file.

PropertyConfigurator.configure("../conf/log4j.properties");

Feel free to let me know if there is any performance issues or it is not working at your side.

It’s good to use it to track your resources.

int activeCount = Thread.activeCount();
System.out.println("total active = " + activeCount);
Thread[] threads = new Thread[activeCount];
Thread.enumerate(threads);

System.out.println("before");
for (int j=0; j<threads.length; j++) {
 System.out.println(threads[j].toString());
}

//run your classes
Benny benny = new Benny();

activeCount = Thread.activeCount();
System.out.println("total active = " + activeCount);

threads = new Thread[activeCount];
System.out.println("after");
Thread.enumerate(threads);
for (int i=0; i<threads.length; i++) {
 System.out.println(threads[i].toString());
}
