[Docker] Upgrade Sonarqube from 5.6 to 6.2

Fri, 20 Jan 2017 21:57:36 +0000

I just updated Sonarqube from 5.6 (LTS) to 6.2. Before that, I upgraded all my plugins in Sonarqube itself and made an backup of my installation and database. Then, I replaced image: sonarqube:lts-alpine in my docker-compose.yaml with image: sonarqube:6.2-alpine. I did an docker-compose up and it started, however, I had some errors so it just kept on restarting. Following this advice I then proceded to delete $SONAR_HOME/data/es/. I then restarted Sonarqube, which worked. I then pointed my Webbrowser to the URL of my Sonarqube Instance and added an /setup and allowed the Database Upgrade. After that, I had a working new Sonarqube instance :).

[Win8.1] Android MTP doesn't work

Got Windows 8.1 installed? MTP doesn’t work?
Well - maybe you got the Windows 8.1 N Version installed. The Version without Windows Media Player - and without MTP Drivers!
Just install the Windows Media Feature Pack for Windows 8.1 - reboot - and it works. It’s Magic, ain’t it?!

If you killed your trusty grub (i.e. by new Install of Windows 8.. :/) you can repair it quite easily:

Boot with an Ubuntu 12.04 Live CD
CTRL + ALT + T

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y boot-repair && boot-repair

And click on the repair button! Done!

[Google Music] Or: How do I get all my music online?

Fri, 04 Oct 2013 21:06:29 +0000

I appreciate art and I love music. And I just can’t get enough of it: I really love to listen to my collection on “near all devices”: On the Netbook while doing work at the University, on the Tablet while sitting on the couch or on my Phone - while running or commuting. That said, there is always the little and persistent problem of synchronizing data.

Google solved that problem by starting “Google Music”: You can upload 20.000 Songs from your collection and listen to them - again and again - for free. Awesome!
