  • Not a particularly successfully evening

    At least, not in terms of working on my new site. I spent the whole time trying to get the database to work (for the counter) like it did in ASP… no luck. And I don’t really know why either, it works fine on my computer! I know that the servers have an older version of PHP than I have, but still… I should have thought it would work! Ah well.

    Still, I might be able to turn my computer into a linux box soon and run a MySQL server on it because … I’ve ordered a new computer! I decided it was a good time to order it now (i.e., while the sales are still on, but only for another couple of days). That should be arriving next week 🙂 I’m quite looking forward to it… it will mark the first time in history I’ve had a new computer! Previously they’ve all been second-hand, and then upgraded. It’s all good (apart from when it’s not. But that doesn’t count.)

  • I don’t like Oracle 🙁

    Hmmm… I’m not sure whether I like Oracle or not! I’ve spent ages trying to get Oracle CM SDK / Application Server / Database to work together in harmony, and always one bit of the chain doesn’t seem to want to work on various computers! I’m currently installing Oracle database 10g on my machine because it doesn’t seem to want to work on another… hmmm. I just hope it works this time…
