Blog Move

Hello all,

I recently purchased a domain for the purposes including combining all of my blogs into one website with single styling and more control over how everything works (wordpress plugins here we come!). Shameless plugs for myself aside, it's a pretty handy site. All that being said, all of my posts from my blogs here on blogspot (Musings of a Systems Admin, Musings of a Web Developer, and Musings of a Sub-par Linux User) have been moved to http://www.aaronwball.com.

The website is still being worked on, so the styles might change a bit between now and whenever I decide to stop writing css. Please leave your comments and suggestions.

Thanks for reading everyone!

Installation of Aptana Studio into Eclipse

Hello all,

I recently attempted installing the Aptana (web dev functionality based off of Eclipse) studio after messing up my stand-alone version (which was outdated anyways). The installation process seemed relatively simple but upon install, I received an ambiguous error message saying:

An error occurred while installing the items
session context was:(profile=PlatformProfile, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.provisional.p2.engine.phases.Install, operand=null --> [R]org.eclipse.ant.ui 3.4.1.v20090901_r351, action=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.touchpoint.eclipse.actions.InstallBundleAction).
The artifact file for osgi.bundle,org.eclipse.ant.ui,3.4.1.v20090901_r351 was not found.

After searching this for a bit, I stumbled upon a bug report for Eclipse that addressed this issue.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eclipse/+bug/477944

The simple solution, crack open a fresh new terminal window (or one you already have open of course) and type in sudo apt-get install eclipse-pde .

Attempt reinstalling the Aptana plugin and all should go smoothly now.
