As a follow on from Django on OS X - getting started here’s what happened after I took Stuart’s advice, installed Xcode and atempted to add mod_wsgi to apache. Before I start let’s just clarify that I’m using MAMP Pro 1.7 on my MacBook Pro running OS X 10.4. This provides me with Apache/2.0.59 (Unix) PHP/5.2.3 DAV/2. Read the rest of this entry »
I started to get this error while I was monkeying around with the latest version on my MacBook.
Cannot find tslib/. Please set path by defining $configured_tslib_path in index.php.
I had to go as far as to have a quick look at index.php to discover that I’d incorrectly named my typo3 folder (er, symlink actually). D’oh!
I’d decided a while ago to invest some time learning Python, already had MAMP Pro happily running on my MacBook Pro running OS X 10.4 so it made sense to push further and have a look at Django - the Python Web Framework. I’m following the beautifully written Django Book and an amalgam of google results. Read the rest of this entry »
As I find myself rarely needing to network my MacBook Pro with anything nowadays I inevitably find myself having to trawl a noise of Google results to obtain the desired effect.

Nokia’s support for the Mac platform is paltry - everything seems to rely on an installation of Nokia Suite which is PC only. Apple’s iSync steps in to synchronise contacts and calendar entries between the two but sms messages are seemingly stored on the phone forever.
On my fresh new virtual machine from Bytemark I’ve installed apache, mysql and everything else needed to run TYPO3 4.02 - and it works! To allow me to delegate some admin procedures I’ve installed webmin and I’ve created some nifty links on my ubuntu desktop that allow me Nautilus access over ssh straight into the filesystem. For everyday admin and setup I find myself preferring the CLI (again over ssh) and I try to test everything beforehand on my “spare” office server.
So much more interesting than your Lorum Ipsum filler text doncha think?
Five obese wart hogs auctioned off Batman, and umpteen quixotic trailers perused five almost bourgeois orifices. One schizophrenic Jabberwocky telephoned Afghanistan, then Quark incinerated two Klingons, because the mostly purple wart hog grew up, however one putrid lampstand laughed, because two silly botulisms incinerated Tokyo, even though the putrid poisons marries Batman.
