Web Server Changes
Mon Apr 09 2001

The proposed changes to the web server config file have now been made. It's a fair bit more efficient in there now, and more importantly, I can actually (mostly!) read it. It was like a ruddy birds nest before!

The httpd process size has dropped by about 1Meg (meaning it should scale a bit better) thanks to some really obvious optimizations. I have no doubt I could do some more actually, but I shall probably leave that for later. I've had quite enough stress for one week!

If anyone notices any weird occurances (like getting the wrong page, or wrong server even) PLEASE EMAIL ME!!! Don't whine amongst yourselves, please let me know :-)

It -seems- to be functioning correctly though.

Some extra functionality has come on board, notably ALL content now specifies an expiry time, so transparent caches and proxies SHOULD, in theory, reget the information after ten minutes... In this way, hopefully the dynamic parts of the site (or, most of it!) should change properly. Let me know if you experience any weirdies or weirdos!

Steve.

    Ok, I don't want to sound like a complainer, but for some reason I am not getting email notification when someone comments in my diary...
    is it my email?
    am I losing my mind?
    are you getting tired of me asking you that???

    Some weird things have happen to me to....

    1. comment section. I wrote someone a long comment (and good by the way *giggles*), then it showed the previewed version.I hit the "No, let me edit again".Normally it takes you back,Well, it takes you back but also wipes the ENTIRE comment! LOL *it was not funny then*

    2. I wrote a entry, forgot to title it.It said, "title needed", so I added the title and poof, all gone :-( *sad sad sad*

    I just had a question about the warning about personal information you put on the pages now. Is there anyway I can remove that? I understand the warning and am not a child or anything and don't really like to read that up in my face on ever page of my diary. I just wondered. Thank you
