I spent far too much of this morning futzing about trying to get Typo working in a DreamHost account (no, it’s not public yet). This post turned out to be the key to getting everyting going.
While Typo is pretty sweet, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to actually use it with DH on a shared plan - I already get regular messages saying I blew the CPU limit, and right now I’ve got 5 instances of dispatch.fcgi that’ve sucked back 3 seconds of power each. Unfortunately, while DH has been great, and I still heartily recommend them for smaller sites (no, this blog isn’t the “problem”), they won’t have any dedicated servers available until they migrate their data centre.
Of course, I do have a static IP at home… While I wouldn’t want to run anything mission critical1 on it, a home server might be just the ticket for lower-traffic sites and experiments. Now if I could just get FastCGI working on Tiger…
- When I say things like that, it usually means I’ll be living the exact opposite within a year. Expect VP to be running from my desk by July… :)
