الله أكبر (Allah Akbar, God is Great)
I had forgotten to install both Apache & MySql by clicking the red x’s to change them into green checks and then start both services. The fredonia url worked fine after that.
The backup copy, using the cverk script, on fredonia had only 1 hiccup. Scanned copies of visual fields had to be coaxed back from “Document” into Nation Notes within the Layout Based Value forms. But it started to be a little buggy yesterday before the backup, so it is not a criticism of the cverk script.
In addition to the built-in backup utility and the cverk script, I did a copy and paste of the /sites/default folder and the mysql folder. It is only 18 MB and took 30 seconds to do. I would feel more secure with 3 different types of backups rather than 3 copies of the same backup.
cverk, after I have gained more experience with your script, I would be very pleased to write the Wiki article if you are too pressed for time. We should know your real name so that your contribution will be properly acknowledged. If you are too moderate, we will have to use your avatar instead. For physicians like myself, I could not make heads or tails of Joe Holzer’s article. If written in the style of the Dummies series, it will help a lot of us beginners.
Pimm, are you old enough to know about the Marx Brothers’ Duck Soup? Groucho played Rufus T. Firefly as the fearless leader of Freedonia (“Hail! Hail! Freedonia, Land of the Brave and Free!”). Have fun with the video.
