Mariadb 10.5 on Rocky Linux 2024-09-03

Mariadb installation the correct way

sudo dnf  install wget  ; 
#
wget https://r.mariadb.com/downloads/mariadb_repo_setup   ;
#
echo "6083ef1974d11f49d42ae668fb9d513f7dc2c6276ffa47caed488c4b47268593 mariadb_repo_setup" 
    | sha256sum -c -   ;
#
chmod +x    ./mariadb_repo_setup   ;
#
sudo ./mariadb_repo_setup 
   --mariadb-server-version="mariadb-10.5"    ;
#
## Install MariaDB Community Server and package dependencies:
sudo dnf  --assumeyes install mariadb-server ;

======================================= OLD WAY: (does not seem to install the correct version!)

cat  <<<END  >  /etc/yum.repos.d/mariadb.repo   ;
[mariadb]
name = MariaDB
baseurl = http://yum.mariadb.org/10.5/centos8-amd64
module_hotfixes=1
gpgkey=https://yum.mariadb.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-MariaDB
gpgcheck=1
END
#
dnf     --assumeyes install mariadb-server   ;

=========================

systemctl start mariadb.service;
systemctl enable mariadb.service;
##You can now verify the status of the MariaDB service using the following command:
systemctl  status mariadb.service ;

First, your domain must pass the certification test!

certification tester

One: name the custom field

Notice leading underscore to designate a meta field: _billing_clients_email

Two: Create a code snippet

add_filter(‘wc_stripe_payment_intent_args’,  function($args, $order) {
    $orderNbr = WC()->session->get(‘order_awaiting_payment’);  
    $order = new WC_Order($orderNbr);

	$args[‘metadata’][‘orderNbr’]			= $orderNbr ;  
    $args[‘metadata’][‘clients_email’]      = $order->get_meta(‘_billing_clients_email’) ; 
    $args[‘metadata’][‘first_name’]         = $order->get_billing_first_name()     ;  // 2024-08-17
	$args[‘metadata’][‘last_name’]          = $order->get_billing_last_name()     ;  // 2024-08-17

    return $args;
}, 10, 2);

DONT FORGET TO RESTART PHP-FPM IF THAT IS HOW PHP IS RUNNING! ! !

Three: Name an endpoint

Last, create an endpoint on server:

Name this identically to the Stripe Endpoint name. Most of this code is provided for you when the endpoint is created!

require ‘vendor/autoload.php’;


// The library needs to be configured with your account’s secret key.

// Ensure the key is kept out of any version control system you might be using.

$stripe = new StripeStripeClient(‘sk_test_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX’);

// This is your Stripe CLI webhook secret for testing your endpoint locally.

$endpoint_secret = ‘whsec_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX’;

$payload = @file_get_contents(‘php://input’);

$sig_header = $_SERVER[‘HTTP_STRIPE_SIGNATURE’];

$event = null;

try {
    error_log(‘’);
    error_log(‘Endpoint Test’);
    error_log(FILE);

  $event = StripeWebhook::constructEvent(
    $payload, $sig_header, $endpoint_secret
  );
    error_log(‘results:’);
                                                   //  too much stuff here!     error_log(print_r($event->data , true));
    error_log(print_r($event->data[‘object’][‘billing_details’][‘email’] , true));
    error_log(print_r($event->data[‘object’][‘billing_details’][‘name’] , true));
    error_log(print_r($event->data->object->metadata->clients_email , true));

} catch(UnexpectedValueException $e) {
  // Invalid payload
  http_response_code(400);
  exit();

} catch(StripeExceptionSignatureVerificationException $e) {
  // Invalid signature
  http_response_code(400);
  exit();

}

// Handle the event

echo ‘Received unknown event type ‘ . $event->type;

http_response_code(200);

1) temporarily DISABLE avast

2) DO NOT change the location of where jellyfin wants to install default locations!

3) when webpage opens up after installation, create a “location” for media stuff by clicking the “+” (plus) symbol.

May be EASIER to install Jellyfin on roku & PC than trying to convert

vlc to convert vid to Roku media

select Video - H264 + mp3 (mp4) option, save as (dot)mp4 file (thought it was h265 option...)

ctrl-J views: h-264 option

VLC command line example:

“c:Program Files (x86)VideoLANVLCvlc.exe” “c:UsersmarkDesktopogv-conversionmediaFilesamericanogvphoneticVideo6-vowel.ogv” -I dummy
