'Out Of Gas'
Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
Gus! You're staying in Swiss-land for the forseable future?
Signed a contract this week for a year on-site. Next week, will be moving out of the hotel into an apartment. Visas and all those hoops go pretty quickly/smoothly, when a Swiss company is the employer.
So, yeah, for a foreseeable year of future, anyway.
Cool! and congrats!
Don't be a stranger....
Perhaps we should set up a "maps" subdomain here?
Congrats, Gus, even though we'll miss your maps something awful.
amych, I think we'll be able make it so you don't have to pine for the maps.
There was some thought at one point of hooking the username from a Buffistas session, so it does not have to be sent separately. I did some refactoring after that discussion that probably needs revisiting, with that in mind. Also, the data is very different from the last archive, so here is the latest: zip
If we don't want to hook into the Buffistas identity system, that zip can just be unzipped into a directory './map' off the document root, preserving file structure. The "./map/data" subdirectory should be chmod'ed for the doc-server having 'write', as the mapping stuff writes/updates files in there.
Is there a specific Mac web browser that's required to open the archived thread files? I previously thought it was just my archaic system and software at home that was keeping me from accessing the files, but they're freezing up my work computer too.
I'm running Internet Explorer 5.2.3 (the most recent Mac version I could find) on a 1.4 GHz G4 with system 10.2.5, which theoretically should be plenty to handle any html files. Should I install Opera or Safari, or is there some tweak I can make to IE to fix this?
Well, they're zip files, aren't they? You need an unzipping utility. I don't see what your browser has to do with anything.
Yes, but once you unzip it, it's a very large HTML file.
How much memory do you have on your system?
My 900 Mhz G3 iBook has 640 Meg of RAM. It takes a while, but Mozilla eventually gets it open.
I don't think I ever used IE to open an archived thread. I've de-installed it so I can't test it now.
Ah, there's the rub.
