PRE-CHAT As always, SuiteCRM is one of my favourite business tools in the free and open software world.

Installing Nextcloud on Digital Ocean Ubuntu Server Droplet
Disclaimer: As always, my blogs are not supposed to be a well-written piece of technical literature but instead a better-than-crap version of a messy notepad. I hope it’s clear enough to help someone other than myself but I always check them to make sure at least I can understand it, ha. It seems that there is a nice blog written…

RECOVERING FILES USING SCALPEL AND UBUNTU
“Ooops. I deleted my photos” I used foremost in this blog to try to recover deleted mp4 video files (for my sister) using ubuntu and the software called Foremost, but it wouldn’t find the video files.

Installing Prestashop on Digital Ocean Ubuntu Server
Setting up Prestashop on an ubuntu server is doable and Digital Ocean makes it pretty painless. The background to this post is that I had a sudden need to ‘figure out shopping carts’.
