 Simon Kerr, of Aurora, and I put in a link to the "Most stable

Sorry? I only see a link to the "latest stable version" (1.2.5),
as always ... you do mean http://www.midgard-project.org/, don't
you?

 Simon and I are also building an interface for the 2.0 White
 Paper and Requirements Documents. We'll probably have this up
 on the site in the next day. This will have fields for current
 and proposal. So, a user will read a section e.g. 2.2 Midgard
 Mapping to LDAP. They'll see the text documentation and any
 dot generated graphics. They'll then be able to comment on the
 current session by leaving a proposal. Afterwards, an editor
 or the branch maintainer will come back and ink the suggestion
 into "current" or if not feasible delete it.

That sounds _very_ interesting for me :-)  I'm looking forward
to being able to contribute to that document ...

   Step 1. : Finding the www.midgard-project.org site.
 
 A. OpenSource Languages/tools "standards":

(...)

One category of referers that would by very helpful for
promotion is simply content -- articles, tutorials, coding
examples etc. for Midgard on often visited web technology sites
such as devshed, webmonkey, whatever.

   Step 2. : Once on the Midgard site, the potential user must:
 
 A. Quickly understand what Midgard really is (the summaries or
 articles the user can read during step 1. are very important too) and
 how it can help him/her.
 
 B. Quickly access links to important information from the home page:
 - Download last stable version, last Beta version, current CVS
 version. Actually, it's really hard to find other versions than 1.2.5,
 and obviously 1.2.5 is the only one which is heavily downloaded by
 people who are not "in the secret".

I'd like to additionally stress the point of finding the betas
and their release notes etc. -- I imagine there must be a lot of
people like me, who need new features and know enough about
Linux and Midgard to work with betas even in production
environments but hesitate to download CVS snapshots.

 - Mailing lists (it's hard to find mailing lists now, I guess many
 people do not use/subscribe to Midgard mailing lists just because they
 cannot spend time to find it).
 - Current online documentation.
 
 Ron is currently improving the whole Step 2.

Does that mean that Ron is finishing the job of relaunching
http://www.midgard-project.org, as begun by Henri?  Is the
development site still http://bergie.greywolves.org:8081/ or so?

   Step 3. : Easy to install
 
 An installation script has been written to install Midgard in one
 step. A "Plug and Play" installation is effective once there is no more
 patch of the PHP parser, so it's possible to have Midgard coexisting
 with already installed PHP3 or PHP4.
 
 
   Step 4. : Easy to create simple site
 
 New Asgard admin site and a good documentation/tutorial will help
 users jump this last hurdle which will convert them to "an happy Midgard
 user".

Steps 3 and 4 especially suffer under the current state of
online documentation, but I suppose that's one of the issues
that are already being dealt with.

[midgard] 1.4beta3 Bug in article class?

2000-07-27 Thread Philipp Rotmann, Linksystem Muenchen


 Hi folks,

I'm observing a strange behaviour with the Midgard functions
mgd_get_topic_articles* and/or the article class.

The following code fragment ...

if ($article = mgd_list_topic_articles($edition-id, "score", 18)) { 
   while ($article-fetch()) { ? 
  li(article.calstart); (article.title); .../li
? }
} 

... works in general, but does not return any value in
$article-calstart (as well as in $article-startdate, by the
way). $article-title, -id etc. works.  

Calling the same article with mgd_get_article(id) works better;
I'm able to see all data fields.

 What's wrong?

 AFAICT it will return the 'first' match only, as an object,

 Nope. Rather a series of screenshots around the

Management summary
  
  What does this one mean?  The "Business Case for Midgard"?
 
 Yes, in a short format. 

I'd consider such a text, as well as the case studies, as very
important for the acceptance of Midgard in the Application
Server market.  Besides my current Midgard site for a non-profit
type of project, we're just about to develop a customer's
website based on Midgard. This one will again be only in German
language, but I could nonetheless write something about it as a
case study.

 I agree on "About Midgard". However, the idea of
 "Getting started" was to provide a set of links to
 resources around the site that would help people
 start working with Midgard. This would of course
 also include links to information on installing
 Midgard or finding a hosting provider.
 
 "Acquiring Midgard" is the current "Getting Midgard"
 section. It maybe should be renamed to "Download"
 to make things clearer.

O.k., that makes things clearer.

 If you've compiled midgard-php yourself you can take a look at the
 config.status in the midgard-php directory. It holds (a.o.) the
 command line you used to configure php.
 
 To see what the existing runtime has to offer, make a simple php3 page
 (test.php3 or somesuch) and call 'phpinfo()' in it. It will list
 all extensions compiled into the running PHP.

Well, the first time I even overlooked the MySQL info and didn't
wonder about not finding PHP ;-)

Now I found MySQL.  And I found something else as well:  There
are now pg devel or client libs on my machine, so there could
not even be any pg support in midgard-php ...

[midgard] unapprove function wanted

1999-12-19 Thread Philipp Rotmann


 Hi,

I'm now introducing midgard in kind of an editorial environment
with editors approving the writers' articles after having
proof-read them etc. 
For approving articles, there is the "Approve" feature in
Midgard.  Fine.  But I just came across the problem, that there
is no midgard function for unapproving articles -- this one is
really annoying, since the obvious workaround (when displaying
an article, not only check approvement but also the date of 
last revision) is not only crappy but also unfriendly to users,
since it is hiding the problem in sometimes small differences
between datestamps ...

By the way, isn't there the same problem with the locking
feature?

[midgard] Admin responsibilities for non-tech people

1999-12-06 Thread Philipp Rotmann


Hi all,

one of the big advantages of Midgard should be the ease of
administration with a big bunch of people working on a site,
restricting personal access to specific content areas, only
style admin or whatsoever.

In the new Midgard 'About' document there is another nice
possibility mentioned:  The presentation of different admin
interfaces to different persons (distinguished by their
access privilegies).  By that, we could avoid confusion by
noch-technical people who should only maintain some part of
a site's content and aren't interested in host, style or
group administration.

It is the directory where your mysql libraries are installed,
especially the one where you find yout libmysqlclient.so (or
thelike).

Re: [midgard] Adding user to Midgard (still problems..)

1999-11-21 Thread Philipp Rotmann

 I have editted http.conf and set LogLevel directive to debug. When
 trying to add a user I get following in my logfile:
 
 [Sun Nov 21 01:19:26 1999] [info] [client 127.0.0.1] Midgard: Template
 not found code-compat
 [Sun Nov 21 01:19:26 1999] [info] [client 127.0.0.1] Midgard: Template
 not found code-global
 [Sun Nov 21 01:19:26 1999] [info] [client 127.0.0.1] Midgard: Template
 not found author   

Well, these messages appear at every access on my server -- even
with the example site (though there are other templates
lacking).  

But while taking another look at my error log and trying again
to set up a new user, it worked -- the only thing I changed
towards the last try: I filled some dummy values into every
field of the person form (and, of course, deleted the dummy
stuff later by modifying the person again).  Seems that midgard
expects some of the fields (which ones?) to be non-zero, uh?


So, as this thing seems to work, I've got another bunch of
questions:
 - How do I, other than by using the commandline mysql client,
   add someone to the internal admin group (#0)?
 - What's the function of a person's "preferences" and the
   "extra information"?

[midgard] Cannot create host, though root pages work

1999-11-21 Thread Philipp Rotmann


 Hi,

another problem with my Midgard 1.2.5 installation:  I am not
able to create another host, though with every try, I created at
least a new root page for the still non-existent host.  My
Apache's error log does not say much, except the still-missing
templates "author", "code-compat" and "code-global"...

 Any idea?

Re: [midgard] Installation problem: MySQL client library

 Any more suggestions?

Fortunately, these aren't necessary any more -- I simply
installed MySQL again in the default place (/usr/local/mysql)
after reorganizing my directory structure, and it works :-)
