Use cakeresque on xampp on windows - cakephp

I want to use cakeresque running on, and first I need to install PhpRedis.
When I install cakeresque with composer.json it gives me this error:
kamisama/php-resque-ex 1.3.0 requires ext-pcntl * -> the requested PHP extension > pcntl is missing from your system.
So how do I install ext-pcntl on xampp in windows?

You don't do it all, as it's not possible.
http://php.net/manual/en/pcntl.installation.php
Note:
Currently, this module will not function on non-Unix platforms (Windows).
https://github.com/kamisama/php-resque-ex#warning
Warning
php-resque requires the pcntl php extension, not available on Windows platform. Composer installation will fail if you're trying to install this package on Windows machine. If you still want to continue with the installation at your own risk, execute the composer install command with the --ignore-platform-reqs option.
https://github.com/kamisama/php-resque-ex/pull/6
So either force install kamisama/php-resque-ex and live with the limitations because of the missing PCNTL extension, or use a VM with an OS that is supported by PCNTL.

tcms-api 5.3 package incompatible with Windows

I attempted to upgrade my tcms-api library from 5.0 to 5.3 using:
pip install tcms-api --upgrade
on a Windows 10 machine, I saw a lot of errors when trying to install the dependent package of kerberos. Even though this is old, I saw a similar set of errors. The package installation failed since the kerberos package isn't supported on Windows and I was left at tcms-api 5.0.
Please file a bug against https://github.com/kiwitcms/tcms-api.
We can do a quick fix by providing 2 package names:
tcms-api and tcms-api[kerberos]
The first one will not install the kerberos package.
The proposed workaround makes sense but changing the underlying kerberos implementation needs careful testing which isn't a quick job.
OTOH https://github.com/kiwitcms/python-social-auth-kerberos uses gssapi which seems to be the latest and most actively maintained implementation of Kerberos for Python. There is an open issue to migrate to that in tcms-api so you can contribute if you want.
As a workaround, I was able to do the following (caveat: I haven't extensively tested my installation yet):
Clone the tcms-api repo from GitHub
Edit setup.py to change the install_requires line to use 'kerberos-sspi' rather than 'kerberos'
Install the following pip packages: Setuptools, Wheel, Twine
CD to repo folder and run: python setup.py bdist_wheel
That creates a package under the dist folder
Run pip install dist\tcms_api-5.3-py3-none-any.whl
Celebrate successful package install
The steps were modified from this page.
Update:
I confirmed the things I need the API to do work with my custom package (create and update test runs). However, I'm in a situation where I don't need to specifically harden my Kiwi instance using kerberos authentication.

PHP 7.x connection with MSSQL server with MAMP

I am trying to connect mssql server to PHP 7.0.8 through MAMP. I have tried using freetds. On some blog people are saying to use pdo_dblib.so extension but it's not working.
Please guide me through the process of connection.
For those who still have this problem:
/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7.2.1/bin/pecl install sqlsrv pdo_sqlsrv
Edit php.ini:
extension=sqlsrv.so
extension=pdo_sqlsrv.so
If necessary, use brew install autoconf if you don't have it already.
While the answers posted by Vague Space and Pedro Santiago helped, I still think the answers are a bit lacking and incomplete… Or ask you to do too much. Honestly the official Microsoft instructions are overkill when they state you need to install their Docker image of SQL Server and such? C’mon… Most people just need the drivers installed to make a connection.
So here is my answer based on my experience installing the pdo_sqlsrv.so and sqlsrv.so modules in MAMP (version 5.2) but should work for most any MAMP version that supports some flavor of PHP 7.
Adjust the .bash_profile so MAMP’s binaries and libraries are a part of your $PATH settings.
First, adjust your .bash_profile so the MAMP stuff is in there; makes it easier to launch and work with MAMP specific binaries and ensures MAMP libraries are checked when doing things like installing new modules like this.
The way I like to do it is like this; set $MAMP_BIN and $MAMP_PHP variables like this and then rebuild the $PATH variables:
# MAMP stuff.
export MAMP_BIN="/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin";
export MAMP_PHP="/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7.2.10/bin";
# Final $PATH setting.
export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:$MAMP_BIN:$MAMP_PHP:$PATH";
Save it and just log out of the Terminal session and back in, or just resource the .bash_profile like this:
source ~/.bash_profile
With that done, let’s install the core Microsoft ODBC binary stuff.
Install the Microsoft ODBC stuff.
Do this to install the core ODBC stuff on macOS; be sure to have Homebrew installed:
brew tap microsoft/SQLSRV-release https://github.com/Microsoft/homebrew-SQLSRV-release
brew update
brew install --no-sandbox msodbcsql17 SQLSRV-tools
Then when that’s done, go ahead and install the Unix ODBC stuff like this:
brew install unixodbc
Now install the actual PHP modules via PECL:
pecl install sqlsrv pdo_sqlsrv
With the modules installed, add them to the php.ini file in MAMP so PHP can recognize it. For PHP 7.2.10 on MAMP 5.x it should be located here:
/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7.2.10/conf/php.ini
And just add these config lines to the bottom of the file:
; Enable 'Microsoft Drivers for PHP for SQL Server' extension module
extension = sqlsrv.so
extension = pdo_sqlsrv.so
; Configuration
;sqlsrv.WarningsReturnAsErrors = 1
;sqlsrv.LogSeverity = 0
;sqlsrv.LogSubsystems = 0
;sqlsrv.ClientBufferMaxKBSize = 10240
;pdo_sqlsrv.log_severity = 0
;pdo_sqlsrv.client_buffer_max_kb_size = 10240
Note, most tutorials—and even PECL when you install the modules—simply mention adding extension = sqlsrv.so and extension = pdo_sqlsrv.so to the php.ini config, but these config options are the ones that RedHat has when installing the PHP SQLSRV via the Remi repo. Yeah, most of them are commented out but I still like having it there for reference.
Follow this guide through step 3: Microsoft PHP drivers for SQL Server
Find where pecl drops extensions in your local machine
Copy the files pdo_sqlsrv.so and sqlsrv.so into your MAMP's PHP extension directory. Mine was located at /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7x.x/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-foo-bar
Edit your php.ini file to include the new extensions:
extension=sqlsrv.so
extension=pdo_sqlsrv.so
Restart your MAMP servers.
having just done this in 2019 with MAMPPRO4 on windows 10 (follow upto step 4 to test that you are connected and then do point 9 ) point 5 onwards is for changing the path in the command line
download dll files from microsoft
https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=20098
follow the instruction after running the exe file and place the dll
files into the extension directory of the php version that you are
using eg: MAMP/bin/php/php7.1.29/ext
check phpinfo for the Loaded Configuration File of the php.ini file
add the 2 dll files depending on your requirements (I wasted time by
using the 64.dll) make sure you are using ts(thread safe) not
nts(none thread safe) in the file name of the dll
extension=php_sqlsrv_71_ts_x86.dll
extension=php_pdo_sqlsrv_71_ts_x86.dll
in control panel search for advanced system settings and click
click Environment Variables
under system variables not user variables click path and click edit
click new and add C:\MAMP\bin\php\php7.1.29 (Edit this to your path)
restart MAMP
open a new command line an enter php -v
you should see the php version displayed

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.

Golang GAE SDK on XP: Do I have to install it? Are there other ways to use the SDK on XP?

The introduction says:
Follow the instructions on the download page to install the SDK on
your computer.
But the download page has no any instructions about how to install and what to do next. Only links.
All I found is this link to WindowsInstallation:
Download and run the latest Windows installer from our downloads page
Must Windows XP users use the installer? Can they just download the Linux version and unzip it? I'd like to have a portable version rather than one that installs EXEs and registry settings, etc.
Also I do not understand what exactly do I have to choose. There are:
Google App Engine SDK 1.7.7 (.msi file)
Google App Engine SDK for Go 1.7.7 (.zip file)
I've downloaded the second. Do I need to download and install the first too? Just adding the second to the PATH and develop is exactly what I want. Is this enough?
The Linux version will have executables compiled for Linux, so you can't run those on Windows (unless you run linux under a virtual machine with VirtualBox, VMWare or similar).
No, you do not need to install something to run Go GAE on XP.
I just downloaded go_appengine_sdk_windows_386-1.7.7.zip from
here.
Unzipped it in C:\go_appengine-1.7.7
Added the folder in my PATH. The main goal is to have these files
dev_appserver.py and appcfg.py in the PATH. It is written
here. Not a must, though, only for convenience.
Installed Python 2.7.4. Only works with 2.7.4. At first I installed
the latest 3.3.1 but had to change it to 2.7.4 because Go GAE cannot
run, throws an error.
And that's all. Just created a sample script, ran C:\>dev_appserver.py myapp and opened my sample app in localhost:8080.
PROFIT.
But:
Do not know, though, what benefits the installer offer. I didn't test it.
That was just a sample script. Maybe some serious development requires installation.
