I've been playing with wiki software at work of late, looking for something to manage the Unix team's ad-hoc documents and other voodoo - stuff that doesn't really fit in the Official Stamped And Approved Methods Of Doing Things.
I wanted to do this at my last employers, but the thought of deploying PHP/perl/MySQL web apps on Solaris filled me with a subtle dread, so I didn't really look into it too deeply.
A quick shufty on the Interwub, however, revealed that Sun have pre-configured Apache/MySQL/PHP packages available as Cool Stack. I wish Sun would stop with the 'cool' moniker. This is not.
The whole install was remarkably painless - building the zone took longer than installing and configuring the 'cool' packages and the TikiWiki software.
First thing I did once the Wiki was up was to slap the install procedure on a Wiki page, which you can see here, if you're interested in doing the same thing yourself. For the uninitiated: yes, that does constitute a remarkably painless install on Solaris.
my mom says it's cool.
My mom also said it's cool
So did my mom.
My mom AND at dad loved it, but not my sister.
This is ridiculous. No-one's mother should be involved.
