This bug has bitten me once .. I share my mercurial repo between my mac & my linux (running on vmware fusion) using vmware shared disk. Because mercurial is using hardlink and copy-on-write technique, somehow my repository get messed up when I modify it on one platform, and commit it on different platform. NOTE TO SELF: Don’t ever do that again !!!. I’m removing svn & hg from my linux vm, just to be safe..
Today, suddenly after rebooting my macbook, I couldn’t connect to my guest machine on the VMWare Fusion. I tried disabling / enabling network to no avail. Luckily I found this blog post which showed me the steps to restart vm. It fixed my problem immediately.
sudo /Library/Application\\ Support/VMware\\ Fusion/boot.sh \-\-restart

from ruby facets:
DanHarris is discussing.
class Hash
def update_keys #:yield:
if block_given?
each{ |k,v| delete(k) ; store(yield(k), v) }
else
to_enum(:update_keys)
end
end
def key_downcase!
self.update_keys{|k| k.to_s.downcase}
end
end
this is a testing
sudo find /path -type d -exec chmod 777 "{}" \;
Vim will try to load more configuration / color files from its runtime path. This is the list of runtime path in my mac :
:set runtimepath runtimepath=~/.vim,/usr/share/vim/vimfiles,/usr/share/vim/vim70,/usr/share/vim/vimfiles/after,~/.vim/after
a little snippet to be put on top of your ruby file so it can run as batch file.
@rem => batch @ruby %~f0 %* @goto :eof batch # your ruby script here

Thank you SO MUCH for posting this. I have been having intermittent network failures in my VMs since day 1 of using Fusion. It’s very frustrating but this is better than rebooting my Mac like I used to do to fix it!
