Wesley's Tool-Box

After giving some thoughts, I bit the bullet and instead of using that 'wes.mine.nu' as the base domain of the website and having 'Tool-Box.info' redirecting to it, the 'Tool-Box.info' is now the base domain itself. This service cost some money, but I thought it would be worth the trouble.

What happens at the moment is that http://wes.mine.nu/ and http://tool-box.info/ both connects to the same location. However, I had previously configured http://tool-box.info/ to redirect to http://wes.mine.nu/blog/ which goes to the blog site (yes, this place). http://wes.mine.nu/ had a test page set up that I had created in a minute to test out the DDNS connection and it didn't make any sense anymore. So basically, you would need to connect to http://tool-box.info/blog/ to see this place instead of http://tool-box.info/ because you would end up with the test page instead.

But that doesn't look as good as before, right?

Since I'm too lazy to set up a new 'front page' for the site, I have now configured the server so that connecting to http://tool-box.info/ will be exactly like connecting to http://tool-box.info/blog/ .

You don't have to remember a new URL. Yay!

Now, I will be deprecating the 'wes.mine.nu' domain in a few days, so if you had any URL linked from my site, now is the time to update to the 'tool-box.info' domain.

Static page plugin on my blog was having problems... seems to be fixed now. Sorry for the minor inconvenience while I was trying various settings to try overcome it.

The much awaited 10.4.2 update is here... Hope it fixes a bunch.

The Korean localization data I've done is now in the main trunk of the s9y SVN at BerliOS, so it should be readily available starting with next release. The plugins' localizations are also in their respective SourceForge CVS trees. I recommend that the folks needing the localizations get them from these distributions from now on, since I now have access for updating them there.

Two issues may come up after installing s9y on the Mac.

1. Quicksearch Error

Attempt a search on the Quicksearch box and you may get this:

The search function did not work as expected. Notice for the administrator of this blog: This may happen because of missing index keys in your database. On MySQL systems your database user account needs to be privileged to execute this query:

CREATE FULLTEXT INDEX entry_idx on serendipity_entries (title,body,extended)

The specific error returned by the database was...

That's because the query was not run and the 'Fulltext Index' is not available. Time to pay Terminal a visit.
