We’ve spent weeks<\/em> preparing for a group presentation in one of my classes. And tonight it all came down to the wire. We were all really nervous, and frankly, I thought we did pretty badly. But the professor’s a down-to-earth guy, so after class one of my members mentioned, “We did so bad!” or something to that effect. And he glanced around to make sure the other groups that went weren’t around, and told us, “I can honestly tell you that your group’s presentation made my night.” And that made my<\/em> night.<\/p>\n

And then when I was upgrading Apache I screwed up and deleted the vhost configuration files. And it’s one of those things I never<\/em> understood… I tried recreating them but they never behaved in a way that made any<\/em> sense at all. I’d load them and get errors that made no sense, or the server would just act in strange ways. I finally got it to the point where the blogs worked, even though nothing else did, so I left it. While there are nice GUI tools for Apache, they’re not much good on a headless server. (And no sane person runs X remotely on a server, since it’s a needless waste of CPU and running VNC would make it even worse.)<\/p>\n

I just spent some time reading up on vhost configuration, and just got it right… I had the syntax all wrong the first time along, to the point that I’m surprised the server was coming up at all. I think I’m actually going to put together a static page on how to properly<\/em> set up vhosts, because in my searches for help I found a lot of people with similar problems.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
