Which Blog Software? Posted by Chris_Isaac (Chris Isaac), 18 August 2006 HiI'm thinking of starting a blog, can anyone recommend any particular blog software, preferably PHP based? Thanks Posted by admin (Graham Ellis), 19 August 2006 We're using Moveable Type, which is Perl rather than PHP based ... works very well, installs easily, no need for any Perl knowledge. You could also use one of the blogging sites such as bloglines that'll host your blog and put you right into a community.Although MT is Perl based, note that we access its MySQL databases through PHP in our archive and search engine on the "wellho" and "train" sites .... if you're looking for a PHP based blog because you want to collect / change / edit the data through your own PHP scripts, MT will work for you! Posted by Chris_Isaac (Chris Isaac), 19 August 2006 Funny enough I've already downloaded MT, but when I saw Perl I shyed away. If I don;t need to know Perl I'll give it a go.Thanks. Posted by Chris_Isaac (Chris Isaac), 2 October 2007 Well I finally got around to installing MT, I uncompressed into a folder called MT under the cgi-bin directory, put the mt-static directory under the web root directory. I tried to run mt.cgi but it comes up with the following error:Got an error: BEGIN not safe after errors--compilation aborted at lib/MT.pm line 45. I've looked at mt.pm and all line 45 is is a '}' the block of code is as follows: Code:
I can't see any problems.. but then again I don;t know what the block of code is supposed to do Any suggestions appreciated. Posted by admin (Graham Ellis), 2 October 2007 Chris, that looks like a follow-up error message rather than the initial one.Were you running mt.cgi from the command line (Shell) or as a URL? If the latter, what got written to the server's error log file? Posted by Chris_Isaac (Chris Isaac), 3 October 2007 Hi GrahamThanks for the response. I run it through the url www.mywebsitehere.co.uk/cgi-bin/mt/mt.cgi, and got the message straight away. I've tried checking the error log, but there are no entries since July. I've also run the mt-check.cgi file and the only thing it highlights is that I'm running a slightly older version of perl. The rest of the items were ok. should I try getting hold of an older version of MT and installing that? This page is a thread posted to the opentalk forum
