Saxony’s Minister of Education sensationalizes lax LernSax platform

December 29, 2020 by Marco Steinhäuser Leave a Comment

I am upset. I am actually pretty "pissed off" (pardon my French). And this is definitely a rant against unprofessional politicians, lobbying and propriety software that apparently has been sold very well. On March 19th, a press release originally written by Saxony's Minister of Education PR Manager Dirk Reelfs was published. Headline: "Home schooling: Learning platform will become more [Read more...]

The art of admitting faults

December 12, 2020 by Marco Steinhäuser Leave a Comment

There's this one story I want to tell you that I experienced personally, I initiated myself and that definitely changed my mindset until this day. Right after the wall came down in Germany I left service at the armed forces and moved from Berlin to Halle, heading from my parents to the girl-friend I had back in that days. After a few days living together with her I realized that I would have to [Read more...]

Using composer in your local dev environment

March 1, 2019 by Marco Steinhäuser

With OXID eShop 6, composer was introduced for the installation of the shopping cart system, as well as for updating it and installing modules (functional overwriting of existing classes and methods). From a pure technical point of view this was 100% a step in the right direction - some other PHP projects like Contao or Typo3 took this path already, others will definitely follow in the near [Read more...]

CVE-2018-20715 and the truth about it

January 17, 2019 by Marco Steinhäuser Leave a Comment

On January 15th 2019, the security issue CVE-2018-20715 was entered into the database of NVD and naturally has been wide-spread through the security scene via Twitter and other social media. In this blog post I'll try to explain why this announcement is close to utter bollocks. The security issue is related to software, not to a company. The company's name is OXID eSales while the software this [Read more...]

I will attend E-commerce Berlin EXPO

February 2, 2018 by Marco Steinhäuser Leave a Comment

On 15th of February 2018, E-commerce Berlin EXPO will take place again at STATION. I attended already in the last year and was surprised to see other faces than usually on events in this line of business. No wonder: E-commerce Berlin EXPO is much more multinational than other events usually are. Surprisingly, e-commerce vendors are not the majority, online merchants will cover a high percentage of [Read more...]

Assemble a local dev environment – not only for OXID eShop 6 – in a vagrant box

October 19, 2017 by Marco Steinhäuser 3 Comments

A while ago, OXID officially announced the availability of a unified development environment OXID Developer VM, based on Ansible and Vagrant. To be honest, I quarreled with it a long time and put hours and hours to understand the concept behind (by trial and error). Finally, I made it with some help of my dear friends and colleagues to get the basic principles and to have it up and running a [Read more...]

Security issues: calculate a maintenance budget when starting your online business

January 30, 2017 by Marco Steinhäuser Leave a Comment

Going over this January's IT and e-commerce news, it was dominated by evil tidings about security issues in this or that web based system. In quick succession, different web applications were on the "security advisory" news: PHPMailer, Magento and Shopware. In a matter of fact, none of the software vendors (not talking about delivering commercial or open source software) is immune to security [Read more...]

CLA assistant as new service for OXID contributor license agreements

January 19, 2016 by Marco Steinhäuser Leave a Comment

Most likely you already know that, if you want to send a pull request to one of the OXID public repositories, it is policy to agree to a contributor license agreement (CLA) before. Please read more about the why and what in OXID's FAQ on this topic. When we started accepting contributions, it was still necessary to sign a paper manually and to send it back to us; later we found a service that [Read more...]
