Today I tried to change my site’s permalinks, but I can’t visit all old posts with a 404 error. I searched for a solution and found that I can add following section in my vhost conf file under nginx configurations.
location / {……
if (!-e $request_filename) {rewrite ^(.*)$ /index.php?q=$1 last;
break;}}
I use ubuntu as my wordpress site’s OS. Today I followed a guide from web to use varnish to optimize my wordpress site.

Change the listening port of varnish, edit /etc/default/varnish, modify the default port from 6081 to 80 in DAEMON_OPTS section.

Microsoft decided to close their blog service and release a tool which let us export articles to wordpress. I tried this tool this morning, but I found that it can only export articles to the blogs host on wordpress.com. I can’t export them to my site built by wordpress. Oops, I can only use wordpress.com to transfer the articles I wrote several years ago on live space.
First of all, I created an account on wordpress.com, then use microsoft’s migration tool to export all of my posts to wordpress.com. WordPress.com support export articles in xml format file, so I export them to my laptop. At last, open my wordpress site’s management page and import all articles from my disk.
Now, this site contains all of the articles I wrote before.
I was trying to create a openvpn server on my ubuntu vps today. Here is the instruction.
Make sure your package repositories and installed programs are up to date by issuing the following commands:
apt-get update apt-get upgrade --show-upgraded
Begin by installing the OpenVPN software and the udev dependency with the following command:
apt-get install openvpn udev
The OpenVPN package provides a set of encryption-related tools called “easy-rsa”. These scripts are located by default in the /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/easy-rsa/ directory. However, in order to function properly, these scripts should be located in the /etc/openvpn directory. Copy these files with the following command:
cp -R /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/easy-rsa/ /etc/openvpn Read more »
