Python on 1and1.com Host

1and1 claims that they support Python. I am able to create python scripts, and put them in cron job. I can also create python script to serve as web page by giving it executable right. The script looks like:

#!/usr/bin/python2.5
print “Content-Type: text/html”
print
print “”"\
<html>
<body>
<h2>Hello World!</h2>
</body>
</html>
“”"
The default version of python, /usr/bin/python is 2.4.4

But here is the catch, 1and1 does not have a python web framework available! They do have django on the server, but django-admin is no where to be found. :(   Ruby is also on 1and1, but no Rails!!!

How to clear Audit Database in Business Ojbects XI R3

The Audit DB is growing really fast, probably because I put too much into auditing. After archiving the database, I needed a way to clear the audit database.
I found the statement in Business Objects Board. http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?t=105734&highlight=audit

select count(Event_ID) from AUDIT_DETAIL where event_id IN
(select Event_ID from AUDIT_EVENT where Start_Timestamp
between '01/01/2008' and '9/01/2008')

delete from AUDIT_DETAIL
where event_id in (select Event_ID from AUDIT_EVENT
where Start_Timestamp between '01/01/2008' and '9/01/2008')
go
delete from AUDIT_EVENT
where Start_Timestamp between '01/01/2008' and '9/01/2008'

You can find it here http://freearticlespinner.centerofspotlight.com/
