ZF1 still can’t parse dates right

I was running into some date validation problems between jQuery datepicker and ZF1. My client wanted one date picker to use a “January 01, 2000” format, and the others a “01/02/2000” format. Seems simple enough.

Building HyperDex from Git on Ubuntu 12.10

I decided to look in to HyperDex again and found someone beat me to making a php extension. Emboldened to get it up and running for a pet project, I wanted to see if I could build Hyperdex itself from source on my newest Ubuntu 12.10 VM before tackling the php extension.

I followed Göran Krampe‘s install instructions and ran into a few hiccups. He installs a couple libraries we don’t need, and misses python-sphinx as well. Here is my update:

$ sudo apt-get install git autoconf automake autoconf-archive \
libtool python-dev python-pyparsing cython libpopt-dev \
libcityhash-dev g++ libgoogle-glog-dev libleveldb-dev \
bison gperf flex python-sphinx

The rest is mostly the same until the end since we don’t need the python bindings.

git clone git://git.hyperdex.org/po6.git
git clone git://git.hyperdex.org/e.git
git clone git://git.hyperdex.org/busybee.git
git clone git://git.hyperdex.org/replicant.git
git clone git://git.hyperdex.org/HyperDex.git
cd po6 && autoreconf -i; ./configure; make && sudo make install
cd ../e && autoreconf -i; ./configure; make && sudo make install
cd ../busybee && autoreconf -i; ./configure; make && sudo make install
cd ../replicant && autoreconf -i; ./configure; make && sudo make install
cd ../HyperDex && autoreconf -i; ./configure; make && sudo make install

When it came time to test HyperDex out, it showed me no love.

$ hyperdex daemon --help
hyperdex daemon: error while loading shared libraries: libe.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Looking back through the build spam I see that I need to add /usr/local/lib to my LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Since I want this in my path on boot, lets add it to our ld.so

$ sudo nano /etc/ld.so.conf.d/e.conf

 

#export needed for 'e' library for HyperDex execution
/usr/local/lib

Save it then reload the ldconfig:

$ ldconfig

Now, HyperDex starts up swimmingly:

$ hyperdex daemon --help

Next step: building php-hyperdex!
