  • Railtime

    Finally, NMBS/Infrabel does something customer minded. Today (after canceling every train passing through Antwerp-Berchem, due to light problems), they launched Railtime.be. I must say I’m surprised in a positive way. Ok, it has a simple (ugly?) layout, it uses asp and .htm extentions… But hey, we got a site, that isn’t too slow, and seems…

  • Java + Angry IP Scanner error

    Angry IP scanner was quitting each time I started the application, and looking at Console I saw these errors: 06/11/08 11:34:15 [0x0-0x1f01f].net.azib.ipscan[190] [JavaAppLauncher Error] CFBundleCopyResourceURL() failed loading MRJApp.properties file 06/11/08 11:34:15 [0x0-0x1f01f].net.azib.ipscan[190] [JavaAppLauncher Error] CFBundleCopyResourceURL() failed while getting Resource/Java directory 06/11/08 11:34:15 [0x0-0x1f01f].net.azib.ipscan[190] [LaunchRunner Error] No main class specified 06/11/08 11:34:15 [0x0-0x1f01f].net.azib.ipscan[190] [JavaAppLauncher Error] CallStaticVoidMethod()…

  • Bad virus scanner! Bad!

    Some antivirus software vendors (McAfee, Symantec, and some others) have started recently identifying Angry IP Scanner as ‘potentially unwanted program’ or risky ‘hacktool’. Now, their programs often delete Angry IP Scanner from the disk during virus scanning. The reason behind this is the will to bloat ‘virus databases’ and show unreal high number of detected…

  • Imap/Gmail mark as read

    I’ve “updated” my previous php-app. Since today I ended up getting this error: Warning: imap_open(): Couldn’t open stream {imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl}[Google Mail]/Spam in /home/yeri/.gmail.php on line 30 Certificate failure for imap.gmail.com: unable to get local issuer certificate: /C=US/ST=California/L=Mountain View/O=Google Inc/CN=imap.gmail.com – Connection failed. Simply searching this line: $open = imap_open (“{imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl/}$path” And editing it to: $open =…

  • And a quick switch !

    For the lazy people, like me! If, for some reason, the buttons have two different sizes or you see some weird stuff, try to refresh the page. You should get the new & updated .css file.

  • Quick reset!

    I’ve added some “quick reset” javascript to the from and to fields. Should be easier to use, if you want to change stations. Hope the link isn’t too small for the iPhone-finger. 🙂 — This is a request for comments ! There also were a little over 1000 visitors yesterday (Thursday) on the website. Not…

  • Touch icon

    Anner has designed me a very first version of the iRail icon. He’ll keep on working on it, when he has some more time. As for the *@irail.be e-mail addresses, they seem to be down due to bad DNS/MX records. It’s being solved as we speak, but might take a few hours to update. Please…

  • iRail reviews

    So far, two iPhone sites have written something about iRail; and here are the links. MYiPhone.be iPhon.fr iPhoneclub Belgium-iPhone (forum) iPhonic Special thanks to these website, they have greatly improved the number of visitors so far.

  • iRail maps

    When submitting information on the B-rail site, you get some kind of “map info” with the train station. Now, when submitting the same information through the iRail website, the same link was added to the results. Yet, these links were broken/unavailable, because the session with the NMBS/SNCB site was no longer valid. I have now…
