Notes on getting mu working…

From David Yin, a tip on adding Ubuntu mod-rewrite:

To install mod_rewrite, “sudo a2enmod rewrite”

The site-add dialog doesn’t let you do both subdirectories and subdomains, though I can’t see why not.  It also restricts you to a 4-character subdomain, but you can alter that within the database and it doesn’t seem to cause any problems. Not yet.

I’m also trying to figure out how to have both subdomains and subdirectories, and/or how to have multiple subdomains that point to the same blog.  Still in process… let me know, Noble Reader, if you have any tips.

Thanks to JoelOnSoftware for the writeup…

We have yet another report of people setting up factories that will make cheaper solar panels so that pricing is comparable with utility-provided power.  $1/watt sounds great, but until these places actually produce panels and start selling them, I still won’t believe it…
