Keeping user data seperate from system data on Apple OS X
on Monday 25th February, 2008 Gabe speculated thusly…One of the things I grew to like about Linux was the /home directory. Any data for a user was always stored there.

Rails Production Environment Using Mongrel Cluster, Apache 2.2 mod_proxy, and Capistrano on Ubuntu Gutsy
on Wednesday 13th February, 2008 Gabe speculated thusly…Recently, I had to setup a production environment for Rails applications at work.

sudo gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-config=/path/to/your/mysql/bin/mysql_config

Apache 2 with SSL on FreeBSD 6
on Monday 15th October, 2007 Gabe speculated thusly…It wasn’t exactly trivial installing and configuring Apache 2 on FreeBSD. Much of the configuration had to be done manually, which depending on your point-of-view is good or bad. This describes how I went about getting Apache 2 with SSL support up and running on FreeBSD 6. I did this on 6.2 but it should equally apply to 6.x. (more…)

MySQL 5 Server on FreeBSD
on Friday 28th September, 2007 Gabe speculated thusly…MySQL is a very popular relational database. It can be used by many different applications and thankfully the installation procedure is a snap. For this tutorial we will be compiling MySQL 5.0.45 from ports with some custom options. I did this on FreeBSD 6.2 release but it should work on FreeBSD 6.3 and 6.x. (more…)
