Run a script when the system starts up or reboots on Ubuntu.
1) Create script, on this example I'm starting the gluu-server service as the root user
$sudo nano /etc/init.d/MyScriptName
Copy/paste the following script, update accordingly:
#! /bin/sh
# /etc/init.d/MyScriptName
#
case "$1" in
start)
echo "Attempting to Start Gluu Server..."
sudo -H -b service gluu-server start
;;
stop)
echo "Attempting to Stop Gluu Server..."
sudo -H service gluu-server stop
;;
*)
echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/MyScriptName {start|stop}"
exit 1… Read more

The idea of this blog post is to show how to install and configure a secure FTP access to your server and provide support for your users.

After following this tutorial you can create a "ftp" user in your system without ssh access (you can google that ;) ) and use it as you generic ftp user.

Sometimes when updating or upgrading different packages on your Ubuntu specially kernel updates, Zend Server tends to break up and the whole packages system too, you usually get errors like "bad inconsistency" of package php-zend-server-ce-php-5.x and you are asked by the system to reinstall this package but that's also impossible due to the changes the update has performed.
In order to fix this issue try following the next steps:
sudo /usr/local/zend/bin/zendctl.sh stop => stop zend server service
sudo rm -rfv /usr/local/zend/tmp/* … Read more
