This is going to be painful.

Thins are going well with Handel. Verison 0.18 is out. We have a mailing list, with actual subscribers. :-) I have a new domain name. Now for the painful part. I need to install Apache2/MP2 with a seperate install of PHP. Install MediaWiki. Install Subversion. Upgrade perl. Upgrade MySQL Etc, etc, etc.

There's so much crap to do, that I've decided to bite the bullet and give the server in question The Big Wipe. Might as well upgrade FreeBSD as well.

It's going to be a looooong week me thinks.


Holy Crapoly

I't s 1:17am and I just now got FreeBSD 5.5-RELEASE, Apache2, Perl 5.8.6 and Subversion installed.

The freebsd install took two tries. First the com port headless install didn't work; then geom raid config crapped out. I'll settle for nightly backups to the second hard drive. That'll do.

Apache2 installed cleanly with PREFIX=/usr/local/apache2/. That was nice. Then I had to fight the subversion port a little.

Hopefully the Apache1 install will go fine tomorrow as well as ModPerl1 and ModPerl2. THen MySql4 and MediaWikia.
