/**
 * A simple fix for a shell execution on preg_match('/[0-9]\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+/', shell_exec('mysql -V'), $version);
 * The only edit that was done is that shell_exec('mysql -V') was changed to mysql_get_server_info() because not all
 * systems have shell access. XAMPP, WAMP, or any Windows system might not have this type of access. mysql_get_server_info()
 * is easier to use because it pulls the MySQL version from phpinfo() and is compatible with all Operating Systems.

Debugging (Resource) Model Instantiation

Follow each step manually and any bugs during (resource) model instantiation will become obvious.

Since many people find model and resource model instantiation to be one of the more challenging things in Magento 1, these are all the steps Magento does to resolve the factory name to the real PHP class name.

To debug, simply follow each step manually until you find a non-match. This works really well in my experience.
Less guessing, more and faster results.

In the examples I use a factory name of "example/thing".

// Drop this javascript in the page where your grid is - maybe using a .phtml
// in before_body_end or whatever.
$$(".admin-autoemail-adminhtml-rule-index td:contains('Inactive')").each(function(status) {
  $(status).up().select('td, a').invoke('setStyle',{ color: '#aaa' });
});

# So, you forgot to use logrotate and now you're staring at a 30GB system 
# log on your production server.
# Never fear...

# Tail an arbitrarily large number of bytes off the end of the thing. 
# This example takes approximately the last 5GB.
tail -c 5000000000 system.log > ~/system.log.tmp

# But, we only want the last month of log data. Let's find the line number 
# where this month's reporting starts.
