Progress

Progress that I’ve made on the $0 budget intranet so far this week:

Installed SlimFTP for Uniserver plugin. Ran into that same old start bug that the 3.2 version of Uniserver had, however I discovered that just starting the FTP server from the .exe instead of the batch file works like a charm.

Installed WebCalendar. Started to try and create a Public Access calendar, one that could be used to reserve conference rooms, but kept running into “too many connection” errors. Turned persistent connections OFF in my php.ini file and that seems to have done the trick. Still troubleshooting why none of the emails for notifications or reminders are going out. A simple PHP mail script did send a mail, so I know using SMTP does work on the server, it’s just not working from within Webcalendar. I’ve got all the settings set to send email, not sure about this one, but also not sure it’s a big deal for conference room calendars. More work needed, obviously.

I’ll keep you posted!

    Spent some time this weekend with the wife, and spent some time away from tech stuff, which was needed to get away from my tech frustrations at least. The other frustrations I was feeling on Friday were professional and they’re not going to change any time soon, that’s for sure, but at least I don’t…

  • A sad day…

    Maybe not for you, but it is for me. One of my favorite bands of all time is calling it quits. Midnight Oil lead singer Peter Garrett has decided to call it a career and “take up challenges outside of music”. Ironically enough for a band that struggled to get the recognition they deserve outside…

  • Flamebait?

    Yeah it probably is flamebait but after Angela’s experience this morning, and a long conversation with our Graphics person at work, (the only Mac machine in the office) I gotta say, Mac OS X has been quite the disappointment. Actually, it’s not OS X so much as it is the “Classic Mac” which is supposed…
