Wiki running
After some discussion with Jean-Francois Pieronne, a new container file is downloaded that holds adjusted files so I could be able to run a wiki (moinmoin, in this case). He also made adjsutments to the online documentation and gave some hints. Tonight I took some time to see if that would be the solution.
One big change, though: It now uses Mark’s PyRTE – the Python RunTimeEnvironment.
Well, partly.
Since I run it in the oprerator site to begin with, the mapping for the webserver must be chnaged slightly: it contains a line that allows the RTE to run under a different user – and JFP nicely used http$nobody this time, but still this function is disabled (due to HTTPS…). No problem,though.
The first attempt failed, but that was because I forgot to change protection of the command procedures to W:RE. After having done that, it took a long time – but the frontpage did indeed show up. VERY basic, however, no formatting, images and so on – it looked as if stylesheets were missing. Next, I changed protection of all files to W:RE and retried. Now the pages showed up properly. I created a user (myself), next I’ll have to do some editing and checking.

The documentation howver still fails, and I notified JFP. It looks as if a file is missing – it does exist but in another directory than expected. This is still to be handled.

WordPress 2.3.3
The Blog on the 2008 bootcamp is set up using WordPress 2.3.3 – and this seems to require a bigger amount of memory, compared to 2.2.3 that this blog is using. I added an entry, and when acecssing it to edit is, MySQL crashed – again. Once restarted – after some time – editing the pages was faster then before and MySQL kept up. So the addition could be made. It seems the longer MYSQL is up, the slower it gets and the more likelier it is to crash.
I wonder if 5 would be better.

PHP trouble
This entry could not be published when I wanted to: the PHP engine crashed:

time after time. So I retried half a day later.
