easyPHP Dev-server plug-in not installed - plugins

I am currently working with a student on a project using easyPHP 16.1. The program/s install fine, and to begin with we can write & test PHP code with no problem. However, on 2 totally separate PCs we have had the same problem occur. Suddenly, for no apparent reason, pages which were working fail to function and we get the following error:-
Failed to connect to DB. Check that the username is valid.
Plugin '*C06327039E918D3247E4438D3785C723719DC8B5' is not loaded
We can't find any reference to this 'plugin' and wondered what is going on. On my own PC, I initially got round the problem by removing easyPHP then reinstalling it, but the student has several hand-ins depending on testing PHP code, and could do without the hassle of repeatedly having to 'fix' the installation. Is there a fix? Is it an easy fix? If there's no fix, should we just use an alternative like WAMP?

This has been a serious issue for Easyphp since ver11.
so for me, after some time of use, I've just dropped using easyphp and switched over to WAMP.
From ver 16.1, Easyphp works in "portable mode" and becomes totally browser-based...
For a simple solution, I'd recommend to check out for alternate mySQL versions in your system, which can be interfering in the same port. Changing the Port No. can be useful in this case...

PgAdmin 4 does not launch

I just installed PGAdmin 4 on my machine for the sake of upgrading when my PgAdmin 3 is working all fine.
Now, when I launch it, it sounds like it is infinitely stuck on start up screen. I came across many threads and many people have suggested manythings like
Install latest version of Java
Get latest version of PGAdmin(which I was already doing)
Get latest version of postgres
I did all of these but nothing seems to be working.
Any idea on what else can I do to resolve this issue?
Ok I am not sure if this applies to everyone who is facing similar issues. However, in my case it turned out that PGAdmin4 would not load if Fiddler is running on my system. Weird but true.

How to install PgBouncer on Windows 7 (x64)

I am attempting to install PgBouncer on my computer with no success. In the installation page, im told that PgBouncer has two dependencies GNU Make 3.81+ and libevent 2.0. Never having used or heard of these two software before, Im completely lost.
I have read a little on both but have yet to find or fully understand what they actually do and how they will help me set up PgBouncer. From what I've read, PgBouncer does not come compiled for windows and I need the other two to compile it. I have searched for tutorials online but it seems that im falling into a black hole of misunderstanding.
Im looking for a simple explanation on how to install PgBouncer or how these software work with one another. Thanks.
If anyone now searches the binaries because http://winpg.jp/~saito/pgbouncer is offline now, check out my page under https://sepppenner.github.io/PgBouncerWinBinaries/. I have all the binaries from the Saito page but didn't yet succeed to build the project on my own. If anyone has ideas, don't hesitate to contact me here or on Github :)
EDIT: I'm now able to build pgbouncer for windows just having some issues with the pandoc thing (Follow https://github.com/pgbouncer/pgbouncer/issues/442). I will provide binaries soon. The instructions are already online under the page listed above :)
Im looking for a simple explanation on how to install PgBouncer
A little late, but if you use the EDB installer for PostgreSQL, as linked on postgresql.org (https://www.postgresql.org/download/windows/), you can install Stack Builder. From inside Stack Builder, PgBouncer can be installed (EDB build).
Unfortunately, it's not the latest version. Now, PgBouncer 1.17.0 is available and Stack Builder provides 1.16.1.
Personally, I don't understand why the PgBouncer project doesn't just offer a Windows build. So everybody would be able to get the latest release.
I have not messed with pgbouncer in years but have had multiple comments on what I did to solve my problem.
In the link bellow is the pgbouncer build I last used on my project. From what I remember, all you would need to do is replace the users in the config/user.txt with yours and go into config/pgbouncer.ini and change the configuration to work with your set up. To start it, just run the run.bat file or pgbouncer.exe config/pgbouncer.iniin the cmd prompt. You want to download everything in the folder.

Why won't my Click-Once app install?

I have an app I wrote in WPF, which I publish by right-clicking on the project in Visual Studio 2013. This produces a set of files which I zip up and make available for users to download and install.
This has been working fine for a while, but today a user told me that he can't install the latest version. It gets as far as the install dialog, then just hangs there. If you kill the install, the app doesn't show up in the list of installed programs, but in Task Manager, I can see that the app itself is actually running, but has three instances running. I can't kill any of these, and have to restart the machine.
He's using Windows 7 Home Premium if it makes any difference.
I've tried uninstalling the old version and restarting his machine several times, but it doesn't help. The app installed fine on my machine, and as far as I know, nothing has changed on his machine.
Any ideas what's gone wrong? Don't know if I missed out any important details. If so, please let me know and I'll fill them in.
In case it helps anyone, it turned out to be to do with the certificate. I thought I was using one, but his machine seemed to think I wasn't. We had to turn off UAC and then right-click the exe to unblock it. That got him going.
I'm fed up with Click-once. it's been nothing but trouble. I've been playing with InnoSetup, which works really well and doesn't have all these problems. It's also pretty easy to make the app update itself automatically without driving the users mad.
Hope this helps someone.

where can I report/get response on eclipse crashes caused by 14.02-14.04 upgrade?

Yes, I know. I got no rep on this site. But I have to ask this.
I upgraded my laptop, my main dev machine, from 14.02 LTS to 14.04 LTS and the plugins I use with eclipse (3.7) completely broke. I use WOLips (https://github.com/wocommunity/wolips) with eclipse. WOLips is for working with WebObjects applications.
I was getting two crashes. One would occur when editing a java file, when auto-suggest kicked in. I fixed this by adding "-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType=mozilla" to the end of my eclipse.ini. I have no idea how I found that. It took a lot of random searching.
Now, I get an exception whenever I open a WOComponent:
Unhandled event loop exception
No more handles [Could not detect registered XULRunner to use]
Trying to define a XULRunnerPath just gives me even stranger errors.
I can file a bug with eclipse (which I did). I tried eclipse 4.2 and 4.4 and got other complicated integration issues. I can file a bug with mozilla (though I was not aware that they were involved). I can install a copy of xulrunner (outside of my copy of Firefox) and point to that (which I did). I can file a bug with ubuntu launchpad (which I did). None of these get you very much response.
So, I was going from one LTS to another LTS. 14.04 - 14.02 = 0.02. Not a huge deal, yes? Should I have expected problems? How can I file a bug with the people involved in just this upgrade and not the other twelve systems that this touches upon?
I had Apple laptops for a long time. I do not expect that amount of hand-holding. But I do wish someone would throw me a bone.
I can get work done if I go buy another hard disk, install 12.04 onto it and copy all of my data back. Is this really necessary? You know, I am willing to help integration testing of these releases. But the systems for finding the right place to put my oar in the water seem fairly impenetrable. Any suggestions? I do not mind working for a solution. If there is a solution.
Ray,
Did you try Eclipse 4.4 and use the instructions on the wiki for compiling the new WOLips? the Eclipse 4.4 is acting just fine for me (but I'm on a Mac sorry :( )

netbeans plugin update constantly freezes at 50%

I've been trying to update my netbeans plugins ever since 7.0.1, but I've never been able to get beyond half of the installation bar. It just freezes at around 50% each time. After I close the IDE, it will attempt to update but fail. I've updated to 7.1 but the issue still persists even for the initial Junit plugin installation after a fresh installation of 7.1.
I've attached a screenshot. Does anybody know what is the issue here?
I read in the Definitive Guide to NB Platform 7.1 that you have to install NetBeans (well because of the JUnit) into the folder, where it has write rights. Which is not the Progam Files in Windows 7.
So try to install it for example into C:\Programs or something like that. You can install new version (7.1.1) even without uninstalling the older one and then let the NB get your previous settings (it will ask).
You can try temporarily disabling your firewall and/or antivirus. I got the same problem, and disabling AVG Internet Security everything worked fine. Hope it helps!
I think that problem is in network. So try to change network you are on. I am using university network that has many policies and only JUnit plugin installation stucks. Went to local wireles public network and JUnit plugin was installed successfully.
