Moving from standard Apache httpd install to virtual hosts

  1. First you need to create an appropiate directory for virtual host. (Using the example of creating an intranet)

$ su –
$ useradd intranet
$ chmod 755 /home/intranet # needed for apache nobody process
$ cd /home/intranet
$ mkdir www logs
$ cd www
$ echo “

intranet test index ” > index.htm
  1. Second, you need to reconfig Apache Httpd for virtual host management.

$ cd /opt/httpd/conf
echo “Include conf/httpd.include” » httpd.conf
$ vi httpd.include

NameVirtualHost 111.111.111.111
<VirtualHost 111.111.111.111>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@site.com.au
    DocumentRoot /home/intranet/www
    ServerName intranet.site.com.au
    ServerAlias intranet
    LogLevel info
    ErrorLog /home/intranet/logs/error.log
    CustomLog /home/intranet/logs/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
  1. Reboot Apache Httpd

$ apachectl graceful

Producing Alternative Means statistics with SQL

Producing Alternative Means statistics with SQL

MySQL’s built-in AVG() computes the arithmetic mean — the sum divided by the count. That is the right default for many questions, but it is not always the right measure of central tendency.

MySQL offers three different approaches to extending the SQL capabilities with the default product you download and install.

Producing One-Sample Z-Test statistics with SQL

Producing One-Sample Z-Test statistics with SQL

The one-sample Z-test determines whether a sample mean differs significantly from a known population mean when the population standard deviation is also known. It is the appropriate test when the population parameters are established — quality control benchmarks, national averages, long-run process measurements — and you want to evaluate whether a new sample is consistent with them.
