change sender in email

trigger in sqlite

given a field called last_update datetime in the table log
a couple of triggers solved the need of keeping track of the last update time automatically inserted in the record:


create trigger log_ins after insert on log
begin
  update log set lu=datetime('now') where rowid=new.rowid;
end;

create trigger log_upd after update on log
begin
  update log set lu=datetime('now') where rowid=new.rowid;
end;

Installing Fedora 16: you have not created a bootloader stage1 device

I was getting this message when trying to install Fedora 16 as a Virtual
Machine in VMWare,

In the default installation I had an "autoinst.iso" as the primary
optical drive and the actual ISO as a secondary

Removing the primary (replacing it with the actual ISO) solved this issue
