Well, the reason I write post is because I have spent a few hours to install cocoapods. I upgraded ruby system with ruby 2.0.0, unfortunately cocoapods doesn’t work well with ruby 2.0.0.
Finally manage to get it work after getting solution from this github page.
rvm install ruby-1.9.3-p327
First, you need to install homebrew.
Execute the following commands:
brew install mysql unset TMPDIR mysql_install_db --verbose --user=`whoami` --basedir="$(brew --prefix mysql)" --datadir=/usr/local/var/mysql --tmpdir=/tmp mysql.server start mysql -uroot
Run the following command in shell to get the current php version
php -v
If you are using Lion like me, and never update php, then you may get 5.3.10.
Unfortunately today I spent a few hours trying to make fuelphp 1.4 oil work normal like when I was using 1.3.
At the moment, the lastest php version is 5.3.19.
In order to update PHP5 CLI on OSX using LIIP package, use the following command.
curl -s http://php-osx.liip.ch/install.sh | bash -s 5.3 # rename the old php sudo mv /usr/bin/php /usr/bin/php_old # copy the new package to /usr/bin sudo cp /usr/local/php5-20121126-082829/bin/php /usr/bin/php # test version php -v # get phpinfo, useful to locate php.ini file php -i # test fuel php oil oil console
Now fuelphp oil should work normally, using 5.3.19 fixed the problem (at least for me) 
.
EDIT:
Rather than rename old php file, it is better to set PATH to new php location
Edit ~/.bashrc using nano or vim.
Add /usr/local/php5/bin, so you might have something like this:
PATH=/usr/local/php5/bin;$PATH:$HOME/.rvm/bin
If you are looking for sending email newsletter, using services like aweber.com or mailchimp.com can be expensive if you have large subscribers. For me to have over 5,000 subscribers and over 12,000 forum members, spending $150 per month for mailing is not an option.
There is transactional email service provider. Basically it offer SMTP account and APIs. You configure your software or script to use this SMTP. Or if you develop your own software, you can also use the API call.
For newsletter script, I’d prefer to use this little script from codecanyon: Newsletter Mailer.

I’d like to offer incremental update for our indexu users. So when user upgrading from indexu 7.4 to 7.5, they won’t need to re-upload all files again. I must provide only new and updated files and SQL update file.
With git, it will be an easy job.
git archive -o /tmp/indexu_incremental_7.4_7.5.zip HEAD $(git diff --name-only a40eeb6f6f76 HEAD)
Where a40eeb6f6f76 is the commit for previous release (7.4).
I learned this command from stackoverflow .
Since I’m using lion, now I got another issue. There is mac file that always bother all of us, .DS_Store. If you have this issue as well, my solution is to install small linux distro in virtual box for packaging purpose. Now I’m playing with TinyCore which is only 12MB.
Code signing is an important task in order to test your app on device and to distribute as an adhoc distribution or app store. Before that you must have created a provisioning profile. If you do not know how to create one, please refer to this post.
targetbuild setting tabCode Signing sectionCode Signing Identity, select provisioning profile only for Any iOS SDKDEBUG, use development profile. For RELEASE use distribution profile
I just finished to integrate Google Analytic into WpApp project in order to track mobile app activity.
Locate the icon and splash screen files in Resources/iphone/ folder. Replace the files with the new one you have.

In order to test your app on device and distribute to App Store, you need to enroll iOS Developer Program. It cost USD $99 per year.
Once you have joined iOS Developer Program, you need to register your app and devices in iOS Provisioning Portal.
Before we begin, we need to prepare WWDR certificate, Develop certificate, register App ID, add devices and create Provisioning Profile. All of them we can do by using iOS Provisioning Portal.
Certificates. In Development tab, you will get the download links for them. Double click each of certificate file in order to add them into KeyChain.
App IDs, then click New App ID.
Devices, then click Add Device. Here you will need to enter Apple Device ID (UUID). If you do not know the UUID number, connect your device to your mac. Open Xcode > Window > Organizer. In Organizer, click your device. There will be identifier value in the main screen. While in this main screen you can also add your device to iOS Provisioning Portal by clicking Add to Portal in the bottom screen.
Provisioning then click New Profile. Fill the profile name, developer certificate, App ID and select the devices. After it is created, download the profile file then double click it to update the KeyChain.
Ok. Now the preparation is completed. We are back to Titanium Studio.
Run button in the project window. Select iOS Device.
Upload provisioning profile. Select provisioning profile file you have downloaded.
Finish. It will start building the project. Wait until it is finished then iTunes will automatically synch the app. Your app will be run automatically on your device.
