Hi All, time for a technical post!
Today while I was setting up a Subversion 1.5 installation over Apache 2.2.10 on Windows, I was experiencing a strange difficulty. After making the necessary configuration details on httpd.conf and I tried running the server, everything went smoothly, however when I made it run as a service, it would not run and give the following error:
“Cannot load C:/../modules/mod_dav_svn.so into server: The specified module could not be found.”
Even though this module was at the right location. After googling for a while and reading the Subversion FAQ for this problem and another useful document, I tried all the suggestions but the problem would still persist. After a while of tinkering, I resolved it by copying the following libraries from the Subversion’s installation to the modules folder of Apache:
- intl3_svn.dll
- libdb44.dll
- libeay32.dll
- libsvn_client-1.dll
- libsvn_delta-1.dll
- libsvn_diff-1.dll
- libsvn_fs-1.dll
- libsvn_ra-1.dll
- libsvn_repos-1.dll
- libsvn_subr-1.dll
- libsvn_wc-1.dll
- ssleay32.dll
I hope this post helps those who are having problems with Subversion deployments.
It did not use to be like this in previous Subversion releases, usually after putting the *.so files on the modules entry on Apache and configuring httpd.conf it was enough to make it run…

Hi All,
Finally I am breaking with the inertia of not updating this place as often as I would like!
This post is mainly focused to providing tips to increasing productivity. As some of you probably already know, I am usually filled with work for the entire day and as time goes by, I am forced to crank out more stuff in less time.
When I was faced with the dilemma to increase my productivity, I started wondering if there was any way to change myself in order to be more productive. Shortly after I discovered sites like Lifehack, Lifehacker and Zen Habits that give lots of advice on how to simplify organizing efforts and also how to change oneself in order to be able to achieve the goals intended.
Some of the key tips I have encountered are:
Of course there are many more tips, and most of the time implementing these tips are easier said than done, it is important to practice the discipline and have lots, lots and lots of patience to achieve the desired results. Most of the time you will experience failures, but the lesson here is to learn and adjust (meditation helps). Lots of tweaks might be necessary but once you reach the desired point it is very rewarding. I have a long way reaching that point yet, here are some tips to avoid when changing habits. I really like the part of trying any habit for 30 days, as it feels as if you are just trying a new program. If you like the new program, you can continue with the habit, if not, leave it alone 
Hoping this helps, I shall depart, and will try these techniques so that I can share interesting stuff more often here.
