In Debian Jessie apache2-dev package is missing aspx2 - apache2

I have verified that I have installed the latest apache2, apache2-bin, apache2-dev, apache2-mpm-prefork, apache2-utils, apache2.2-bin, and apache2.2-common. The apache2-dev package is supposed to include aspx2 located in /usr/bin, but it's not there.
I removed and reinstalled apache2-dev, but aspx2 is still not being installed on my system. If you know how to resolve this issue, I would appreciate the help.

Probably you mean apxs (APache eXtenSion tool) ?
If so, the filename is /usr/bin/apxs and it exists in apache2-dev

If not please list files of this package with
dpkg -L apache2-dev

How to fix 'postgres.h' file not found problem?

I am trying to write a base type for PostgreSQL in C (using xcode), and I already installed PostgreSQL 11, but it seems that postgres.h cannot be simply included in the file ("'postgres.h' file not found").
Could someone tell me how to fix that problem? And can I write code under an arbitary directory, or do I have to write under the PostgreSQL directory?
Or perhaps the question should be: how to install header files like postgres.h?
Install postgresql-server-dev package with this command:
sudo apt install postgresql-server-dev-XX
Replace [XX] with your already installed version of postgresql:9.5, 10, 11, 12
You have several approaches here:
Search for the file yourself, using some command like
find / -name "postgres.h" -print
this will tell you (on my Mac does) the file is in:
/usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/11.2_1/include/server/postgres.h
and add the -I /usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/11.2_1/include/server option to the compiler. Check your postgresql version for the possibility of having a different one.
Probably there's another package for database development. Search for a package named postgresql-dev or similar, and install it. After searching packages with:
brew search postgres
and
brew search psql
on my system doesn't appear anything that matches.
EDIT
I've checked a FreeBSD system for that file and it appears on
/usr/local/include/postgresql/server/postgres.h
So probably you have to #include <server/postgres.h> instead, and use the appropiate -I flag (as mentioned above)
I was facing the same issue while compiling postgis 3.1.7 for postgresql#13 on my Mac.
The problem was that in pg_config the link to server file was
/opt/homebrew/opt/postgresql#13/include/server
While the actual server folder was in
/opt/homebrew/opt/postgresql#13/include/postgresql/server
So I moved the entire "server" folder up a directory inside "/include". And viola, postgis compiled and installed perfectly.

Where does sdkman install packages?

I used sdkman to install groovy which went fine. Where is the installed package now? I need the path for it. I am on Ubuntu 14.04.
I've checked it on my system. It should be located in $HOME/.sdkman/candidates/.
I think the best way would be to use SDKMan's home command:
https://sdkman.io/usage#home
Something like this (taken from the above page):
$ sdk home java 11.0.7.hs-adpt
/home/somedude/.sdkman/candidates/java/11.0.7.hs-adpt
Upon installation, SDKMAN creates an environment variable $SDKMAN_DIR which points to the installation directory.
Usuall it's ~/.sdkman
After you have run source $HOME/.sdkman/bin/sdkman-init.sh.
You can see the sdkman "installation" by running:
declare -f
$HOME on mac is /Users/<users>
Where's SDKMan installed:
echo #SDKMAN_DIR
Where did it just install gradle? (or some other package)
which gradle
SDKMAN stores file in $HOME/.sdkman/candidates/ as Tom mentioned and this answer goes into more detail.
To find where SBT 1.3.13 is installed, type sdk home sbt 1.3.13. It'll return something like /Users/powers/.sdkman/candidates/sbt/1.3.13.
The arguments to the sdk install command align with where the files are stored in $HOME/.sdkman/candidates.
sdk install java 8.0.272.hs-adpt stores files in $HOME/.sdkman/candidates/java/8.0.272.hs-adpt.
sdk install sbt 1.3.13 stores files in $HOME/.sdkman/candidates/sbt/1.3.13.
When you run sdk install, the downloaded binaries get saved in $HOME/.sdkman/archives. For example, $HOME/.sdkman/archives/java-8.0.272.hs-adpt.zip and $HOME/.sdkman/archives/sbt-1.3.13.zip.
Some of the binaries are pretty big and can end up taking a lot of space on your computer. You should periodically delete them with the sdk flush archives command. Once you install the software, you don't need the binaries anymore. See here for more details.

ckan local installation, 500 error on solr JSP support not configured

I am trying to install CKAN on my local computer using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
I followed the instructions for installing from source found here and I try to check if solr is running by visiting http://localhost:8983/solr/.
I can see that Jetty is running because when I visit http://localhost:8983 I see that it is up.
I added the jdk as follows:
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-amd64
I am getting a 500 error when i try to open the solr page:
HTTP ERROR 500
Problem accessing /solr/index.jsp. Reason:
JSP support not configured
Powered by Jetty://
Any ideas? Should I redo the whole thing from the start?
Edit/Update
I just couldn't do anything with this installation. The bigger problem was that installation files were meshed up! I tried to install tomcat/solr instead of jetty/solr and things went sour. So I just created a VM and did a fresh install there. For anyone interested I did a tomcat/solr installation following this and a CKAN installation following this (with out of course the solr instructions). Also, for some reason the CKAN installation has commented out the solr URL, so even if it is right, I had to delete the comment.
A fix has been documented by #mstantoncook here [2939] & [1651] How to solr-jetty JSP support
Note the last comment, sudo service jetty restart
It's a Jetty BUG on Ubuntu 14.04!
There is nothing wrong with Ckan itself.
Actually, there is a bug in the libjetty-extra-java package (version 6.1.26 and newer) in Ubuntu 14.04. The bug was introduced after Jetty (in Ubuntu) has changed it's dependences from libtomcat6-java to libtomcat7-java.
You can get more info about this bug in Ubuntu Launchpad: Bug #1508562 "Broken symlinks for JSP support in libjetty-extra-java version 6.1.26-1ubuntu1.1".
The bug is already fixed on Debian, and I'm hope it will be solved in Ubuntu 14.04 soon.
There are workarounds that may work for your case
I proposed some workarounds in this bug report, and since they can be useful for the Ckan users, I'll also replicate them here.
All of them consist on use both jetty and libtomcat7-java, but adding/replacing some classes (code ported from libtomcat6, in put in the jsp-2.1-6.0.2.jar file) to the Jetty classpath.
I don't know if they have some problem. Use them at your own risk!
Workaround 1 - Install the fix package proposed by vshn
I found this workaround here: https://github.com/ckan/ckan/pull/2966
In short:
wget https://launchpad.net/~vshn/+archive/ubuntu/solr/+files/solr-jetty-jsp-fix_1.0.2_all.deb
dpkg -i solr-jetty-jsp-fix_1.0.2_all.deb
service jetty restart
This will install a JSP jar that works (the file will be named jsp-2.1-6.0.2.jar, but it contains classes ported from libtomcat6).
Workaround 2 - Manually install the JSP jar
Download the same JAR file that the DEB package above would install.
wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jetty/+bug/1508562/+attachment/4785985/+files/jsp-2.1-6.0.2.jar
Now, move it to a proper location inside the Jetty config dir. I did it this way:
mkdir /etc/jetty/extra-jars
mv jsp-2.1-6.0.2.jar /etc/jetty/extra-jars
And add a line like this one in the Jetty start.config file:
echo "/etc/jetty/extra-jars/jsp-2.1-6.0.2.jar" >> /etc/jetty/start.config
And:
service jetty restart
Correct solution
The correct solution is to wait for the Ubuntu Team solution. However, while waiting for this fix, you can use any of the previous workarounds (I prefer the last one).
I hope they help you!
Try this steps:
sudo mv jsp-2.1-6.0.2.jar /usr/share/jetty/lib/.
change own:
sudo chown root:root /usr/share/jetty/lib/jsp-2.1-6.0.2.jar
finally restart jetty:
sudo service jetty restart
I followed this steps and now I can see localhost:8983/solr and localhost/solr/admin
In Ubuntu 14.04 this can be fixed with:
cd /tmp
wget https://launchpad.net/~vshn/+archive/ubuntu/solr/+files/solr-jetty-jsp-fix_1.0.2_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i solr-jetty-jsp-fix_1.0.2_all.deb
sudo service jetty restart
Following http://docs.ckan.org/en/ckan-1.6/solr-setup.html#single-solr-instance
(this one a bit old, but worked perfect for me )
You will have to edit /etc/profile and add this line to the end such as this to the end (adjusting the path for your machine’s jdk install:
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/ (or other version)
then
export JAVA_HOME
sudo service jetty start

Not able build apache mod_tile in openSuse error: Could not find apxs on the path

I want to run a tiles server with OSM data
i want to install mod_tile so i followed the mod_tile setup
But when i do the
./configure
It says
checking for getloadavg... yes
checking for apxs... no
checking for apxs2... no
checking for /opt/local/apache2/bin/apxs... no
configure: error: Could not find apxs on the path.
any idea what went wrong?
According to the Internets you need to install apache2-dev (previously known as apache2-devel). The apx binary should then be located under /usr/bin/apxs2 or /usr/sbin/apxs2.
Note: For building a tile server you should follow the guide on switch2osm.
For Ubuntu
sudo apt-get install apache2-devel
For RedHat & CentOs
yum install httpd-devel
SUSE has removed the SDK ISO from the area where you download the server ISO.
Check out this page.
I consider their page as very complicated and not logical so play a bit around but you find it in the end.

Help installing static binary for wkhtmltopdf

I am trying to use the static binary of wkhtmltopdf on Ubuntu server 10.0.4. The reason for is that it apparently has a built in modified QT that will allow me to run wkhtmltopdf without an X Server.
Result:
Once installed (see steps below), when I execute wkhtmltopdf in the terminal, it does not fire up... just returns me to the prompt - like it ran and did something, no error but no output:
:/usr/bin$ wkhtmltopdf
:/usr/bin$
Same behavior if I put args:
:/usr/bin$ wkhtmltopdf http://www.google.com test.pdf
:/usr/bin$
Am I doing something wrong --- my understanding that the static binary should just fire up. Perhaps missing some dependency? Is there a way to get some verbose output?
These are the steps I have followed:
In /usr/bin:
1) Confirmed that the existing (non-static) wkhtmltopdf resides there and that it executes. When I execute it with no args I get the help/about output from the app.
2) Moved the existing wkhtmltopdf out of the directory (renamed it)
3) Get the static binary: sudo curl -C - -O http:
//wkhtmltopdf.googlecode.com/files/wkhtmltopdf-0.9.9-static-i386.tar.bz2
4) Untar: tar xvjf wkhtmltopdf-0.9.9-static-i386.tar.bz2
5) Rename: mv wkhtmltopdf-i386 wkthtmltopdf
6) Get (apparently) necessary packages: sudo apt-get install openssl build-essential xorg libssl-dev
I was having the same problem. I removed the existing wkhtmltopdf and followed the steps below and the installation worked.
First, installing dependencies
sudo aptitude install openssl build-essential xorg libssl-dev
for 64-bit OS
wget http://wkhtmltopdf.googlecode.com/files/wkhtmltopdf-0.9.2-static-amd64.tar.bz2
tar xvjf wkhtmltopdf-0.9.2-static-amd64.tar.bz2
chown root:root wkhtmltopdf-amd64
mv wkhtmltopdf-amd64 /usr/bin/wkhtmltopdf
The only difference is that I put it in /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf.
I hope this helps!
Following deb's answer got it working for me on Ubuntu 10.04 64bit - thanks!
Although rather than downloading 0.9.2 as per deb's instructions, I would suggest people download the latest version by:
Go to http://code.google.com/p/wkhtmltopdf/downloads/list
Download the latest version of wkhtmltopdf-[version number]-static-amd64.tar.bz2
At this time, the latest 64bit is http://wkhtmltopdf.googlecode.com/files/wkhtmltopdf-0.11.0_rc1-static-amd64.tar.bz2.
In my debian server trying to run wkhtmltopdf-i386 lead to same blank prompt.
Non-static (with non-patched QT) version of wkhtmltopdf installed with "aptitude install wkhtmltopdf" is worked.
Problem solved by switching to wkhtmltopdf-amd64, server was a 64 bit and i missed it.
After that, wkhtmltopdf-amd64 says 'libxrender shared library not found', this problem was solved by "aptitude install xorg"
0.11.0_rc1 seems to be buggy.
It keeps throwing the error "Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used".
Reverting to 0.9.9 worked for me.
