dtraCorp dev environment
4th-jul-2008 - posted by dtra
finally, i've managed to set up my development environment for my site. so i can actually test stuff locally before uploading, instead of just uploading and hoping for the best. i'm not sure how effective it will be in reality though, as i don't really like to leave that computer on all the time, and not logged into the fedora os all the time as well, but i'll just have to be disciplined i guess. the problem i was having was that the apache install didn't have suexec configured properly, and i was trying to set it up to run similar to what i have on dreamhost. finally worked out that i needed to recompile apache and modify the suexec settings a bit to get it running. i still had to change a heap of other local settings, but hopefully i won't have to do it again, but i'll try to make notes of what i did in case i do.
this could very well mean that there will no longer be any bugs on this site 
. with this update, i will probably put off trying to install php on my macbook for a while (as it has not been a very productive exercise), and i will post a review of my mac next week probably.
pic stolen from the fedora project page, while i'm not using fedora 9, i am using fedora, so good enough (these projects all have such shit logos, although i shouldn't talk 
).
