Wiki Server Update

It may have escaped everyone's attention but this SoSLUG Wiki site is now running on Drupal 6 a significant web site upgrade.

This upgrade was not without it's problems, not least of which was the lack of drupal_wiki profile which still is only available for Drupal 5 and is core to the development of this site. Drupal Modules upgrades also proved problematic especially the views module.

Web Server & Software.

Introduction.

So now the server is built and RAID5 configured. http://wiki.soslug.org/wiki/raid_5 I'm slowly beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel. All I have to do now, is select the server software and that's it; or is it?

This project has seen its fair share of setbacks; smoke pouring out - frightening; a failed brand new hard drive - frustrating, to name but two! Surely now, all I had to do to complete the project would be completed in an hour or so, with time for a little self congratulation on a job well done.
