My group project at University now consists of three smaller projects that provide an overall RSS service. I want to let the guys work on these, while still letting me keep my other coursework jut accessible to me. At the moment, I just have basic http authentication set-up which isn’t so great for pulling off what I want.
Please welcome on stage the Apache2 mod, authz_svn…
If your one of my regular readers (ha!), then you’ll know I’m starting a Group Project for University. We have 7 members in the group and without some sort of version control – managing the code we’re about to produce would be hell! So I’m setting up Subversion on my home server as a repository. Following are the steps I used to set-up Subversion over Apache 2 on my Ubuntu server.
This semester at university I’m doing a group project module. Most of the group are on IRC a lot of the time, but it doesn’t really provide for reliable collaboration. I’d seen punBB being used a lot in recent months and knew it was basically a no-frills discussion forum that was really fast (and it validates as XHTML Strict! woo!). I’ve been wanting to give it a shot for ages – and this was my excuse. Thing is, with this blog being here, I’d have to create a sub-domain to use.
I reinstalled my home server today (well, I actually started yesterday, but today I finished from scratch again) and wrote down what I did. My aim was to have a web server set up using Apache that I could use to host this blog which uses Ruby on Rails. Also, I wanted to set-up Webmin and Bind so I could manage the DNS stuff from here.
So, here we go! If you find any errors, or have any problems, leave a comment and I’ll try and help.
Got Ruby on Rails all set-up? Created your first app? Dead slow? Speed it all up with mod_fcgid on Ubuntu.
