Hi Blake - just looked at it in Chromium 18 and YES that looks serious. Not sure though if that's Lively's fault or a bug in Chrome. We'll need to look into that.
As for local deployment, there are some scattered bits of documentation: - Amazon EC2 by Marko: http://lively-kernel.org/other/aws/ - Mac & Ubuntu x86: http://lively-kernel.org/repository/webwerkstatt/users/fbo/xamppInstaller.xhtml - Windows is very experimental: http://lively-kernel.org/repository/webwerkstatt/users/fbo/xamppInstallerWindows.xhtml - Also we just deployed an instance on SUSE Linux, I will search for and upload the Apache config for that ASAP if you need it. The general problem here is that Apache config & default settings differs a lot depending on the platform. That makes it almost impossible to create a unified installer. (And for what it's worth, there is a highly experimental way to deploy LK with only Node.js: https://github.com/fbornhofen/lkcodesrv . We don't recommend this, but it might be interesting for some to look at it.) HTH Fabian On Wed, Feb 1, 2012 at 12:17 PM, blake <[email protected]> wrote: > Fabian, > > Thanks!
