After far more annoyance and hassle than I'd like, too. Regardless, sidhe.org's now on its new home box. Much beefier (Athlon 1700, rather than a 300MHz Celeron, 512M RAM from 128M, 80G (soon to be 160G) HD from ~20G), much newer OS/Distro (2.4 Debian "Sarge", from a mutant RedHat 6.2 system) and mostly latest and greatest versions of the various pieces of software it runs. Oh, and I've switched from Sendmail to QMail, with some pain.
The transition's not been too bad, though there's stuff I'm not too happy with. Something keeps spewing packet messaages to the console, some of the web stuff didn't come over, and I needed to do some Berkely DB file upgrades for MT. (Which wouldn't have been bad if the db_upgrade program had been packaged with any of the Berkeley DB apt packages...) Still, mail's going in and out, mailing lists work, web works, MT works, FTP works, and POP/IMAP work.
All in all... could've been worse.
Posted by Dan at September 29, 2003 10:05 AM | TrackBack (0)Hi--I have the same problem. How did you end up upgrading the Berkeley DB files on OS X? I can't get the db_upgrade command to work either :)
Thanks
Tim
I didn't do the upgrade on OS X. (My webserver's running Linux) What I did do might work for you, though. I grabbed the latest set of sources from Sleepycat and built them (but did not install them), then I used the newly built db_upgrade to do the upgrade. Worked just fine, but this is likely because the version of Berkeley DB that my server was running was the most recent, just lacking the db_upgrade command. (Amongst a few others)
