PolyMicro Systems

Scince I am on a slow satellite link I like to do my web page developemnt locally then transfer the files up to polyMicro Systems site.

So i tried to start up my local web server on Leopard 10.5 client and immediately ran into a permissions problem. Looked at the config files (which are now located in /etc/apache BTW) and didn’t see anything that screamed out “Change this”.

I had previously set up /etc/hosts to set up my dummy host polymicro.dev to point to 127.0.0.1 and was able to resolve polymicro.dev but still could not get the index page up. Then I found this post which finally got me running my dummy server again.

So, now to get my site page up again which seems to be broken. The CSS doesn’t want to be rendered for some reason, investigating now.

Another great engineer leaves the barrel.

Just signed up at Twitter which looks kind of fun. Being a lone developer working at home I do miss the comraderie of the office sometimes so maybe this will help. Also downloaded the associate application Twitterrific which looks nicely done for the Mac. So go sign up and look for my Twitter page and tell me what yours is!
