After following your instructions, I get the following error:
Could not open lock file /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (2 No such file or directory)
Any idea why?
thanks,
Eric
sounds similar to the apt-get problem listed here: http://computingplugs.com/index.php/Fixing_apt-get. Try that and see if it works.
Trying to setup samba got the following error
smbpasswd -a smbuser
New SMB password:
Retype new SMB password:
ltdb: tdb(/var/lib/samba/group_mapping.ldb): tdb_mmap failed for size 77824 (Invalid argument)
and the password is not appended to passwd file, any suggestion
how to proceed?
Have you done any optimization of mysql or php caching to speed up your hosting? I recently installed apache/mysql/php on my tonido plug and page loads using wordpress are horribly slow. I’m wondering if I need to kill the tonido software, or if you’ve done something else to get mediawiki running rather well.
no, I have not done any optimization on system. It is pretty much a stock setup from apt-get.
I have a blog that is hosted on the same sheevaplug as computingplugs which runs wordpress. You can take a look at it and see if it is faster than your setup. The address is http://frustratedastronomer.com/
Interesting. Seems marginally faster. I’m planning on trying the myriad of wordpress caching options to see if I get better performance out of my sites, thanks for the info!
Looks good so far - only bought/got this delivered today - updated linux and got apache/mysql with apt-get. I want to make a LAMP server out of this.
Can I get Webmin running on it - I’m not fantastic on the command line, and I have kinda got used to using Webmin to do a lot of the admin work on our server at work.. was hoping I could use it on this Sheeva plug as well!
Sorry Chris, I have no experience with webmin. But it sounds like a php type setup tools so it *should* work. Unfortunately webmin is not in the sheevaplug repository.
Hi I have just installed xcache
apt-get install php5-xcache
service apache2 restart
and well the sheevaplug is flying what I can tell 100% recommended applications that took 0.7 to 1.2 milli seconds to render now in about 0.1 to 0.2 are rendered.
Thanks for the tip JGM
Thanks to you for all the great articles you have wrote and this cool website running on a sheevaplug :D.
