Mongrel users - May 2006 - Mongrel, Ubuntu (Dapper) and Park Place

Hello.

(This message is a followup of a previous request for help sent to the
rails mailing list on the same subject.)

I managed to compile [the native extensions for] mongrel on ubuntu
based on some feedback I got from Zed on the rails mailing list, but
still no joy in running parkplace ? The system seems working but I get
no CSS rendered, and it seems I cannot send a file with a permission
different form ''private'', even when I select ''public
read'', etc. Have
you any suggestion on how to proceed? Thank you.

It appears that you have installed ParkPlace (using setup.rb or 
something.)  I''d recommend just running ParkPlace from its own
directory
for now.

  svn co http://code.whytheluckystiff.net/svn/parkplace/trunk parkplace
  cd parkplace
  bin/parkplace

I have some patches to remedy this situation, but I''m not done thinking
about... if they solve the problem... in the manner I''d like them to.

Thank you for your advise.  I removed the "installed" files and
launched as suggested. It works now! I''d like to study the code and
the database structure now.

When you''ll have some spare time, would you like to share more words
about your philosophy to parkplace/S3, the aims of parkplace, and the
database structure (how it reflects your approach)?

Regards,

Great, glad it''s working.  I would encourage you to post your questions
as tickets on the Park Place trac site: 
http://code.whytheluckystiff.net/parkplace/newticket

I have no aims or philosophy.
