I am using PhantomJs 1.9.2 on Centos 6.3 to for automated ui tests. When a test fails,
screenshots are saved to the server.
My problem is that even though the screenshots are saved, they do not contain readable fonts.
So if the website reads like this:
חיים טכנולוגיים
the screenshot of the site will look like this:
םםםםםםםםםםםםם
So, instead of the actual letters, it renders and saves little boxes.
The system is centos 6.3. Freetype and Fontconfig are also installed.
How could I go about fixing this?
Thanks!
follow these steps:
in /usr/share/fonts/ I added a folder named arial with the arial.ttf for hebrew
I ran fc-cache -vf.
That's it! I did not edit or change fonts.conf or did anything else as suggested in the link.
You should use python code for taking screenshots of website. there are two module which will do whatever you want pyvirtualdisplay & selenium. Install them and write a class to create screenshot and call it with command line with your code.
Best of luck...
I recently had to fix the same problem myself. I ended up doing what's suggested in the this answer. Well, sort of. I skipped some of the steps:
in /usr/share/fonts/ I added a folder named arial with the arial.ttf for hebrew
I ran fc-cache -vf.
That's it! I did not edit or change fonts.conf or did anything else as suggested in the link.
Granted, I still had a little trouble with parts of the page (I'm guessing it was because they were using fonts other than arial), but I ended up not needing them. Hopefully that'll be good enough for you too!

Recently I started to find interest in Processing and decided to download the offical Processing 3 IDE from https://processing.org/download/?processing. But half of the IDE is in cyrillic symbols.
Screenshot of the IDE
I already tried to change the configuration language etc. Also I downloaded the IDE to my workplace notebook and on the notebook the IDE was complete in normal english.
Now I dont know how to fix this problem, because there are no informations about a problem like this with the Processing 3 IDE.
A few things to try - you may have already.
I know you said you tried changing the config language, but I'm not sure if you changed the "language.txt" file in the directory "C:\Users\your_username\AppData\Roaming\Processing". Ensure it only contains one line - "en".
Fresh install of Processing (delete the folder you extracted to and the Processing folder in the directory mentioned above, and the sketchbook folder, usually in your documents).
UPDATE:
This is a solution which has worked for others experiencing this exact issue:
Download Processing 3.1.1 - https://github.com/processing/processing/releases/tag/processing-0250-3.1.1
Make sure Processing is not already running
Rename the java folder in the processing-3.2.3 directory to something else, eg. java_broken
Copy the java folder from 3.1.1 to the 3.2.3 directory
Try running the 3.2.3 version of processing.exe
I am not sure what I did, but the icons in the menu options don't show up anymore.
There are just squares, like below:
What could have caused this and how do I fix it?
Thanks.
This might be an ugly fix to the problem, but after trying everything is the only thing that worked for me.
Rails admin uses an old version of fontawesome. Download the zip file here: http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/3.2.1/assets/font-awesome.zip
Then put the following files into the /public/assets directory of your rails project, from the /font directory in the zip file:
fontawesome-webfont.eot
fontawesome-webfont.svg
fontawesome-webfont.ttf
fontawesome-webfont.woff
FontAwesome.otf
This is of course bypassing the proper rails asset pipeline, but as a workaround until rails admin is fixed will work fine.
symfony1.x followed a good standart that the whole framework lies somewhere outside and is available to any project. Today I started to read symfony2 documentation and actually downloaded the 'with vendors' 2.0.1 package which is presented on download page. After opening the package I was a bit surprised of what I've seen. But after looking around the package I found that the only folder I need is 'vendors' one - so I copied its content to my '...\lib\vendor\symfony2' folder (near '...\lib\vendor\symfony' and '...\lib\vendor\ext'). I added it to include path and proceed reading documentation. And then I found a problem - a command listed 'php app/console generate:bundle --namespace=Acme/HelloBundle --format=yml' produced simple questions. Did they miss to explain how to generate a project (structure, preconfiguration, command-line files, etc)? And what about '.bat' and '.sh' files?
Symfony2 is very, very different than symfony 1 - especially when it comes to the directory structure. You can't simply drop in the vendors dir and expect it to work. This page explains how to setup a new Symfony2 project.
I recommend you to forget Symfony... and to think with Symfony2 about another think completely different than S1.
Installation is really simple and you will need some advanced PHP knowledge just to understand how it works... But if you have worked with S1, I expect you will have not much problems :)
I installed Ruby on Rails 3 using bash on OSX Lion.
When I wanted to use zsh and do a "rails -v" command I had "Rails is not currently installed on this system".
I just do not understand why. To me it's like "you can access all the files you want with bash not with zsh".
If I want to switch to zsh, will I have to install one more time Rails? delete the old one?
Is it secure and clever to use two shells when developing Rails applications?
What are your best practices?
Thanks in advance.
PS: I am new to programming and my installation is working fine. I even created one app.
EDIT: If you encounter the same problem I would encourage you to read the second answer first to get the rationale then the first one. Thanks to both of them.
While you are running bash, type at the command line echo $PATH.
Now start up your zsh command line, and type echo $PATH.
I bet the Rails path is not included in your zsh, right?
Look in your $HOME dir for .bash* files. See which one has the Rails PATH added.
Find your zsh .* env files and copy/paste the line you found above into the approriate file.
When I say .bash* and .* files, I mean hidden files in your home dir that you'll only find by doing ls -la. If you find a .profile file, that would be a good place to insert this.
I hope this helps.
P.S. as you appear to be a new user, if you get an answer that helps you please remember to mark it as accepted, and/or give it a + (or -) as a useful answer.
I just do not understand why. To me it's like "you can access all the
files you want with bash not with zsh".
As shellter said, you must have directories added to your path in order to run commands from the command line. For more information on PATHs take a look at the Intro to Linux guide. I know you are not using Linux but that section (and lots of others) is very much applicable.

Rails? delete the old one?
No, see note on paths above and take a look at the guide.
Is it secure and clever to use two shells when developing Rails
applications? What are your best practices?
It's not really something special to use two shells at once. It depends what you do in each. I often have 6 and 7 shells open, not all for the same thing. That is really up to you and how you work. The number of shells you use is more of a workflow thing than a "best-practices" issue.
I normally have 3 shells open when I do RoR work. One running autotest in the background, one running rails -server, and one where I actually edit files and run emacs. But again, this is not best practice as it is workflow. Do whatever makes you effective.
The only trouble you could get into occasionally running two shells is say, for example, you open a file in one and delete it in another. However, when you do this it is typically very obvious.

For Rails, I found this tutorial very helpful.
Also, you said you were new to programming. I don't know if this is the case, but I would suggest starting with basic Ruby, before jumping into Perl. Although the tutorial I linked above covers Rails-flavored Ruby.
does anybody know, how i could create automatically a UML class diagram from an already existent iphone project. Is it possible?
Thanks in advance.
Yes, you can use Doxygen:
Install Doxygen (with MacPorts: sudo port install doxygen).
Get a script like this and change the first lines to match your configuration.
Download these files and edit the Doxygen file so it says HAVE_DOT=YES and UML_LOOK=YES.
It will then generate and install a docset that you can read from the documentation browser, or just right click and show contents from Finder.
Or, if you want a graph of dependencies check: https://github.com/nst/objc_dep It uses graphviz.
See also OmniGraffle of all things. If you open an Xcode project with it, it will generate a full class diagram. It can be fairly overwhelming for a large project.
