What accounts? Who needs them, when and why? | |
The accounts are csl2 account and PostgreSQL account. You can read about them below. You need them! You need them as fast as possible (You must make sure you have access to those account no later than two weeks into the semester) You need them in order to do the WET HW and practice the course's material. |
csl2 Account | |
csl2 account is needed for the WET HW, in which you'll complie and run your programs over csl2. Please make sure that you can use this account and login to it (see below). |
Creating csl2 accounts | |
At the beginning of the semster a csl2 acount will be opened to all the students who are registered to the course (Through the secretariat). The same process is done two weeks later. If you have registerd to the course later than two week to the beginning of the semester or from some other reason you don't have a csl2 account please contact the teaching assistant in charge. Since graduate students' registration is done after the begining of the semester, graduate students are required to contact the teaching assistant in charge as soon as possible. |
How to login your csl2 account | |
In order to login your csl2 account you need to connect to csl2.cs.technion.ac.il using ssh. (You can fine a window SSH client under course material -> additional files) However, the csl2 server isn't accesible outside the technion network. There are few ways to access csl2: 1. Use ssh program from within the technion (Not including the Wireless network) 2. Use ssh to connect t2 or tx and then use "ssh csl2.cs.technion.ac.il" to connect to csl2. This will work because you have access to csl2 from within t2 and tx. 3. Connect to the technion network (see below) and then use the ssh program (Works also with the technion Wireless network) Notice the difference: If you get a message that csl2.cs.technion.ac.il is unreachable (or a similar message) then you don't have access to csl2 server and you need to try one of the above solutions. If you get a request for username and password and your username and password aren't accepted then you have problem with your csl2 user (Not with accessing csl2 server) try to reset your password (see below) or contact the teaching assistant in charge |
Renewing csl2 account, in case you forgot your details | |
The link https://linux-sup.cs.technion.ac.il/change-password will allow you to reset your csl2 (Unix) password using your TX or T2 account. You must be within the technion network or be connected to the technion network from outside the campus (see below) |
PostgreSQL Accounts | |
PostgreSQL is the database management system that we are going to practice with in this course. In order to open an account there you should perform the following operations: 1. Log in your csl2 account (see above how to do it); 2. Run command: create_sql_account The command will prompt your ID and create a PostgreSQL account for you. By default the command must be in your path. If it suddenly is not, its location is: /usr/local/pgsql/bin/create_sql_account . If you have troubles with the create_sql_account command, please contact the teaching assistant in charge.Now, please, make sure you can login your PostgreSQL account (see below). |
How to login your PostgreSQL account | |
There are three ways: 1. login to your csl2 account. Type "psql username username" (The first username is the name of the database which is equal to your username. The second is the username) Enter your password You should get a cursor "username=>" (with your username of course) You can read more a bout it under Course Material -> Self Reading -> PostgreSQL.ppt 2. Enter the site http://csl2.cs.technion.ac.il/~cs236363/phpPgAdmin-4.2.2/ and enter your username and password Those who can't login his PostgreSQL account must contact the teaching assistant in charge. |
phpPgAdmin - If you create a table/column but cannot access it | |
Apparently there is a problem when creating tables, columns and views using the wizards - if their names include uppercase characters. Please use only lowercase names when creating the tables, columns and views. In the queries themselves - there is no such limitation. |
