In this post, we will cover changing from SQLite3 to MySQL and updating files. So nothing good comes from surfing the web. The FSD Web Penguin was made aware of the latest version of ownCloud version 7. Here is the process that was finally developed to avoid a few pitfalls. Do this AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!! Lucked out here and had several servers and started on the test server not caring if it was destroyed.

A short week for most here in the states it is the 4th of July. Independence Day. But there is no rest for the Penguins at FSD. This week there was a release of a minor fix to the FPS Harvest Scheduler. The fix was said to fix a syntax change in how ODBC uses SQL. But of course the penguins around here can’t leave well enough alone.

Viva California!! “go to the California coast it is beautiful and sunny…" well much like a duck the posse of Penguins from FSD that went to California were met with rain which rolled nicely off of there backs. But it wasn’t a vacation anyway. Best of all the GPS only tried to kill us once. Definite wrong turn in Albuquerque. One project was to review inventory procedures for a stratified stand based inventory.

The Android penguin in the office came across this the other day and did some research. This is what they found out… We have several Android devices around the office and the Penguins love them. They just work. It is always nice to have technology working for you instead of you working for technology. The Problem: We were off site and needed to access the secure Penguin Nest VPN.

An entire glorious week in the office!!!That said all that happened was work. Terribly exciting. In the world of forestry a new release of the Forest Projection and Planning System was released by the Forest Biometrics Research Institute. The main fix was to do with missing configuration values for species. While testing this version the Penguins around here found an obscure “problem” when compiling forest cruise data.

Nelder Plot Visit…. So you ask yourself what the heck is a Nelder plot. Well instead of jumping right in to what it is take a look at one. (this is not the one visited on this trip) And of course Google has updated there images so the representation isn’t as good. NELDER, J. A. (1962). New kinds of systematic designs for spacing experiments.
