This is some really great stuff that amazon has released since the boom towards cloud computing. After Linux based clouds, now Windows based clouds are available and ready to perform. It’s a great opportunity for developers to be able to create application for a cloud. I’ll be definitely trying it out any where soon with a small web application to see the performance achieved over a period of time and give some feedback about this new service.

Amazon EC2 running Microsoft Windows Server® 2003 is a fast and dependable environment for deploying applications using the Microsoft Web Platform, including ASP.NET, ASP.NET AJAX, Silverlight^TM, and Internet Information Server (IIS). Amazon EC2 enables you to run any compatible Windows-based solution on AWS’ high-performance, reliable, cost-effective, cloud computing platform. Common Windows use cases include website and web-service hosting, high-performance computing (HPC) and data processing, media transcoding, distributed testing, ASP.NET application hosting, and any other application requiring Windows software. Amazon EC2 also now supports the SQL Server® Express and SQL Server Standard databases, and makes those offerings available to customers on an hourly basis.

Was just trying to view one of my post that i modified once after being published and bumbed up with a page with these error messages:

Warning: ini_set() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/wacdesig/public_html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 1517

Warning: require_once(Text/Diff/Renderer.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/wacdesig/public_html/wp-includes/Text/Diff/Renderer/inline.php on line 17

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘Text/Diff/Renderer.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/wacdesig/public_html/wp-includes/Text/Diff/Renderer/inline.php on line 17

Apparently this is due to my hosting provider that have disabled the use the the PHP function ini_set(). Great !!! how do i edit post that i have edited before… fortunately i found out someone that came up with a solution :).

Please note that this issue is only for WP 2.6 and is cause by the new Revision module that allows you to view a revision of your post before it was edited.

Here is the link to the solution for this problem:http://www.code-styling.de/english/wordpress-26-and-the-textdiff-fatal-errors

I also found another solution for those who don’t want to download the modified WP source file that is proposed in the first solution

Edit the wp-includes/Text/Diff.php, line 52 :

require_once ABSPATH . WPINC . '/Text/Diff/Engine/' . $engine . '.php';

Edit the wp-includes/Text/Diff/Renderer/inline.php, line 17 :

require_once ABSPATH . WPINC . '/Text/Diff/Renderer.php';

For all those out there, Happy New Year 2008, Wishing you success in your life for this year.

I am back with a completely new theme idea, from the first version i realized that it was a bit too dark and way too compact… things were not obvious. So i re-designed it completely using lots of whitespaces… tell me what u think about it.

Wishing all of you a happy and prosperous new year… for new beginnings… and for all those wishing to make up a better life for this coming year. To all of you

Happy new year 2007
