A Geek’s Sunday Morning
- installed an Apache server, PHP interpreter and MySQL database in my WinXP computer, without any installer! Don’t lough, it is not so easy as it looks…[1] Thanks to this, I will be able to customize the
my blogeasier. - installed PHPEclipse plugin for PHP under Eclipse 3.1
- ordered personnal homepage spaces at Free.fr. This will allow me to migrate my old websites from Lycos (and its ugly and invading ads) to quicker and ad-free Free.fr’s servers.
- updated my
.htaccessfile to get rid of spam bots. I am regularly spammed by robots from Ukraine and Iran. For Iran, I have a radical solution if the.htaccess-blocking does not work, yayathollah may not appreciate… - removed orphan files and directories from my PC.
Notes
[1] I discovered XAMPP distribution just as I finished my installation :-(. Therefore I did not experience it.
