The ol’ college try

September 8th, 2003 | by jg3 |

So I have given b2 a good shake and it seems pretty solid. I don’t think i can have one post in multiple categories, but that isn’t essential. It is pretty simple .php & MySQL and I could tinker around underneath the hood all day and then go and customize the .css to change what it looks like.

But I feel like I would be shortchanging myself if i didn’t at least try the Movable Type system, so here goes….

niagara:/usr/ports/www/MT# make install
===>  Extracting for MT-2.64_1
>> Checksum OK for MT-2.64-full-lib.tar.gz.
===>  Patching for MT-2.64_1
===>  Configuring for MT-2.64_1

Installing cgi /usr/local/www/cgi-bin/mt
Installing data /usr/local/www/data/mt
Postinstall adjustment is needed at the fist time. The following list is
some PERL modules needed for running MT, you can also install them from
FreeBSD ports:

HTML::Template is from www/p5-HTML-Template
Image::Size is from graphics/p5-Image-Size
File::Spec is from devel/p5-File-Spec
CGI::Cookie is from www/p5-CGI.pm
LWP::UserAgent is from www/p5-libwww
SOAP::Lite is from net/p5-SOAP-Lite
File::Temp is form devel/p5-File-Temp
ImageMagick support is from graphics/ImageMagick

DB Modules are depend on your choice.

To upgrade a previous verion of MT: Do NOT do this from FreeBSD ports
structure! Instead, go to download the 'Upgrade Version' file from this
link:

Please read the docs to initialize a blog DB in /usr/local/www/cgi-bin/mt/db
