In arangosh, I have accidentally executed require("org/arangodb/users").save("user", "password") without the console.history false command-line option, and now the password seems to be permanently part of the history.
Is there any way to delete the command history of arangosh?
There should be a file called .arangosh.history in your user folder.
The path depends on your operating system. It should be one of the following:
/home/<username>/.arangosh.history on Linux
/Users/<username>/.arangosh.history on macOS
C:\Users\<username>\.arangosh.history on Windows

There is a nice option when setting up zsh on Ubuntu
Populate your ~/.zshrc with the configuration recommended
by the system administrator and exit (you will need to edit
the file by hand, if so desired).
However, on a fresh Arch Linux install the option is missing. Is there a way to have it (or maybe, I am being picky here) ?
This happens when you haven't got a .zshrc and there's a /etc/zsh/recommended.zshrc. If you say yes, it'll just copy that one to .zshrc.
Arch, bare-bones awesomesauce that it is, doesn't bother to ship such a file.
When I try to start chromium I get this:
Please start Chromium as a normal user. If you have previously run Chromium as a root, you will need to change the ownership of your profile directory.
I searched for it, but found articles only like run chromium as a root. I use linux (Ubuntu) not a long time, that I need a help.
Addition If I add new normal user, how can I run chromium from root like them?
You can run Chromium with an argument from the command line like this
chromium --user-data-dir=/foo/bar
This will enable you to run it as root. This is not advised though for security reasons.
If by running as a normal user you mean execute the command as someone else, you can just do
su - username -c "chromium --user-data-dir=/foo/bar"
if you need to use the user's settings, then the path(user-data-dir) should point to them.
If username and password is already set in your Linux System then, answer by #Dropout is perfect.
If there is no password set and you want to run as a normal user, you can just do
su -c "chromium --user-data-dir=/foo/bar"
This will allow you to open Chromium when you don't have a password defined in your Linux System
I have a script which I want to run just after user log-in authentication. To accomplish this, I added the script name in /etc/rc5.d/S##rc.local file. But later i got to know that, anything that is added in rc.local file gets executed in boot time of the system not after the login authentication. Can anyone tell me how to run the script after user login authentication?
For bash:
You can add your script to /etc/profile.d folder.
More reading about this here and here.
Basically, you should give your script the extension .sh as all these files are executed in a loop after user logs on.
Try adding this to your /etc/pam.d/login:
session optional pam_exec.so /bin/bash /path/to/your/script.sh
You will need to check in your script if the current user is actually an administrator (according to whatever your criteria for being administrator are).
For Linux Mint and Ubuntu with Desktop environment there is a option in main menu called "Startup Applications", just go there and add the path to the script file. This script will run after login in window manager.
I have a Perl program that someone else created and I am calling on with CruiseControl. The program calls on Unix Commands using Cygwin. However, everytime that the Perl program calls on a Unix like command with a DOS like address, I get the well known error:
cygwin warning:
MS-DOS style path detected: E:\regression
Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /cygdrive/e/regression
CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning.
Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#using-pathnames
I have set both the User Variable AND System Variable CYGWIN to nodosfilewarning. This removes the error when I run the program from the command line, but the error still occurs in CruiseControl when called as an automated process from a batch file. I have called on both the batch file from the Desktop AND Command Line and ran as an administrator. Nothing changes.
Other Notes
For purposes of this problem, I don't have access to the Perl Program
I am trying to go back to Cygwin 1.5.*, but since I am using Server 2008, I am encountering compatibility issues
This is occurring on one of the distributed servers, not the main server running the Webdashboard.
I have read somewhere that this issue may stem from a different user calling on CruiseControl, but the issue should have been solved by setting this as an ENV System variable
Is it possible to modify the registery to set the ENV variables?
Thank you in advance
The way I do it is like this
printf 'export CYGWIN=nodosfilewarning' >> ~/.bash_profile
If CruiseControl is connecting to the server via ssh, reinstall sshd and explicitly include nodosfilewarning when prompted for the CYGWIN environment variable during the install.
Re-installing with modified environment will work but if you don't want to or cannot re-install, an alternative is to change the registry instead of re-installing the service.

Hey, I'm trying to have a graphical program and I want it to start after I log in. How do I do so? I know there's a GUI program, but I want to use a command line here.
GUI tool:
http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2009/07/ubuntu-open-applications-automatically-during-system-startup/
now, there is update-rc.d, however, it seems to run before I log in, while the entire system loads ups (Unless I don't understand what the NN means in the update-rc.d manual).
Any ideas?
There's also an autostart folder in ~/.config/autostart - which is profile (or user) specific. If you put a .desktop file in /etc/xdg/autostart it will become a global startup for any new users created. This assumes you have xdg-user-dirs-gtk installed.
Drop a .desktop file in... /etc/xdg/autostart here, might be different on Ubuntu.
