@nathan-sr Could you self-host applications using this OS? Found a small list here: https://selfh.st/apps/ Also, I stumbled across ' Memcached ' which sounds like something that could be utilised by your OS? https://memcached.org/ I did compile it in Jammypup64 but forgot to add the ' enable proxy ...

Hi rockedge , This is my finding so far, on this new SFS generation & installation : 1. If we install xampp & then create this SFS file on the same, specific puppy linux version, then the SFS file also gets installed & works fine, on the next install on the same puppy linux version. 2. Also, added ...

@nathan-sr I could not get the mysql server to start because of a permission denied! But I saw this also on a SFS I had put together earlier which I did eventually get the mysql server to start but those fixes did not work when I tried them this time. It seems to be something simple because all of ...

Hi @rockedge ,

Did my copy of the newly built 8.2.12 XAMPP SFS work at your end ? Kindly confirm.

Thanks

Hi All, Just thought of sharing my efforts of creating a more visually appealing Wallpapers ( Solid / Single Color ) and Icons for Puppy Linux : Wallpapers : Extract the wallpapers.7z file enclosed and then Choose your favourite wallpaper(s) and then copy / apply them, to the location, shown in the ...

Hi @williwaw ,

The above mentioned project website gives the .iso format of my enhanced BionicPup 64-bit base, which I use it to serve more different purposes.

Hope this information is helpful to you.

Hi rockedge , Here is my fresh experience of downloading the xampp-linux-x64-8.2.12-0-installer.run from the XAMPP website and installing the XAMPP software and generating an SFS file out of it for portability reasons : Add the mysql system user first, on the terminal and then click on the installer ...

Following rockedge 's guidance and adding some little tweaks from my end, here's what helped me to connect successfully to a bionic 64 puppy from another machine on the same network, through a terminal ssh client : Steps to get an ssh connectivity from another machine's terminal program : ( All ...

xampp version 8.0.12 xampp-8.0.12-x86_64.sfs Thank you @norgo for this xampp-8.0.12-x86_64.sfs. It really helped me to create a working, portable webserver, quickly, for the sake of my open source project users. I also described about it in a topic here : https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php ...

Hi rockedge , Yes the pen drive that I installed everything was imaged finally using Rescuezilla ( via VirtualBox ) and uploaded in zip format, to the project site mentioned above. Probably, instead of QEMU, VirtualBox ( along with its extension pack, which supports USB Drives ), is a lot easier to ...

xampp version 8.0.12 xampp-8.0.12-x86_64.sfs Thank you norgo for this xampp-8.0.12-x86_64.sfs. It really helped me to create a working, portable webserver, quickly, for the sake of my open source project users. I also described about it in a topic here : https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?p ...

@nathan-sr Nice! I will be giving it a look over and try it out. Hi rockedge , Were you able to try it out ? Your feedback is very important to me. Thanks. BTW, I have added some hints on restoring the image using RescueZilla, on the project page mentioned above, to make it easier for all. Hope it ...

just curious what puppy is remastered? are there any additional tweaks or addititions? thanks Yes, bionicpup64 is the base, from which I keep adding stuff, to serve different purposes. Firstly, as you have seen in the screenshot, the icons & wallpaper were enhanced for aesthetic reasons. Secondly ...

Hi All, I just completed creating a re-mastered pen drive image, with the XAMPP webserver, for helping the Web Developers, Testers, Learners and End Users. It just requires a 8 GB OR More Good EMPTY Pen Drive, to restore this pen drive image, once and start using the webserver, to serve your ...

Hi all, It's me Nathan S.R. logging in, after a long time, to share some news, about Puppy's immense capabilities, to serve as an Advanced DHCP Server & Also Provision of Other Network Based Servers / Services. I myself needed a DHCP server Live CD, to serve a network, which only had a very Basic ...

Hi all, A further update to this tool/template was necessary, for providing features such as: 1. Drop Down Menu integration for categorising our skills 2. Font-awesome inclusion for enriching menus and sub-menus with icons Direct link for download : https://sourceforge.net/projects/website-design ...

Forgot to mention, that in the dropdown sub-menu items, we can add the <br> tag, in between, to produce line breaks, at the desired points. This will make it more readable to the viewers of our webpage. Adding the <br> tag even after every item, will make into a vertical list instead of a horizontal ...

At first I couldn't see how menu_dropdown.html worked, but I get it now: in the relevant <li class=""dropdown"> tag it calls up the other file writeup_fold.html which contains the same navbar code but also includes the text, which is selectable via <class="ANCHORS" ...> Regarding 'folding' text, I ...

If you try to run a Perl Script Executable ( with the default perl installed on puppy linux systems ) which requires any CPAN library modules, that you haven't installed, then you will get an error message that starts with something like the following: Can't locate MODNAME/Submod.pm in @INC (@INC ...

P.S. One more feature is now added as a separate file attachment: 5. For implementing Dropdown Menus, Download the Wiki Page File Attachment on the Project Website Mentioned Above. This is easy to implement as well and the html file provided, demonstrates it on the last Web Designing menu item ...

I forgot to mention that a few HTML sensitive / special characters, need to be replaced in our codes, before we can publish them, on the web, using the template that I had given earlier. This can also be easily achieved, using the sample codes, given below. I tested this code on a 187 lines of a ...

Thank you once again, Wiak. I fully agree with you. The Drag and Drop culture of website designers nowadays, do not offer the flexibility, satisfaction & learning offered by a simple html / css template. I experienced this myself, when I tried to create a website for my brother's own company and ...

Hi all, As a Documenting Tool requires a lot more features like: 1. Navigation Menus For Multiple Pages 2. Embedding Supporting Documents like pdf etc. 3. Embedding Useful Youtube Videos & Other Multimedia References 4. Maps for providing directions to official places I have added all these features ...

Thanks to the encouragement given by wiak, I have further improved upon this tool, for readability purposes and uploaded it again, on the above mentioned website ( at the top post on this page ) . Please re-download it and enjoy ! :thumbup: Also, note that the choices for Background / Foreground ...

I mentioned briefly about the power of the awk command for large data processing over numerous files, in my other post, but did not provide any examples, which viewers could use. Here, in this post, I am attaching an easy guide, from which, all Examples can be copied and pasted on to a Terminal ...

Thank you Rockedge. I have already used your earlier ftpd.pet program version to transfer files, between a Virtual Box guest and its host, successfully. In fact, Puppy Linux Live CD and your ftpd server, helped me to create a whole disk image (using gzip) of two installed operating systems and ...

Start the Puppy Linux System First, through an USB / DVD to get the Fullest Possible Machine Resources. It is better to avoid Virtual Systems for recreating the SFS File. 1. Copy the .sfs file to an Ext Filesystem with Plenty of Free Space and then Right Click on the .sfs file and choose UExtract 2 ...

Hi all, For the sake of my new open source project users, I had to create a Friendly and Re-Mastered version of Bionic Pup and uploaded them here : https://sourceforge.net/projects/custom-puppy-linux-for-scripts/ This live cd can be run from any OLD PC manufactured after 2009 / 2010 with a 64-bit ...
