Ubuntu: Install .deb package and it's dependencies

There are 2 ways to do that

 A) Manually
  1. sudo dpkg -i your_package.deb (This will install the package but with the missing dependencies, if there is)
  2. sudo apt-get install -f (This will download the missing packages, after that, your are good to go)
B) Or you can use gdebi. This package has 2 version, command line and one with a GUI. The GUI one integrates with your file explorer so you right-click your package, and select to open it using Gdebi.

The command line version can be installed by runing this command sudo apt-get install gdebi-core, the GUI version for GNOME can be installed by running the command sudo apt-get install gdebi. For KDE, run the following command sudo apt-get install gdebi-kde.

To use the command line version of gdebi. Just run the following command sudo gdebi your_package.deb.

Now straight to tapestry5.1 stuff .. 1)AppModule.java public class AppModule { public static void contributeApplicationDefaults(MappedConfiguration config)   {   config.add(SymbolConstants.PRODUCTION_MODE, "false"); // This mainly affects how exceptions are reported, I'm   not sure - and I don't think - its vital to host tapestry   on GAE.   config.add("tapestry.thread-pool-enabled", "false"); //Now this is a must !, GAE restriction.   config.add(SymbolConstants.APPLICATION_VERSION, "0.1"); // This is to override the random number generated by tapestry in assets paths  } } 2)There as a compatibility issue between tapestry5 and GAE, that's wh...

Testing SOAP services using pingdom

This post  gives half the answer I needed to test SOAP services . The other half of the answer was to override the default Content-Type HTTP header added by pingdom  (Check the 11th point in the Optional Parameters section). To override the header, just add one with a blank space. This worked for me and may be for you too. Also another thing I had to do while testing web services developed using Apache Axis (I don't know which version), is that I had to specify a SOAPAction header with the value ""  (The value is 2 double quotes, not an empty value) Generally, you need successfully send a POST request to the service and find out what HEADER you are missing (i.e. to add it) or adding (i.e. to remove it). You can use SOAP UI to do that. But SOAP UI doesn't show sent HEADER by default, so you'll need to download TCPMon (Which records and displays communications), start it, and let it proxy connections on a specific port, then configure SOAP UI to use that po...
