Server died, moved to VPS

March 2nd, 2010

My old work horse from 2002 has died. I think it was the power supply or the motherboard. Well, I took the opportunity to move to the cheapest VPS at ITSTADEN (merged with Serverconnect AB). With only 128 MB of RAM, I had too tweak the installation quite a bit. Nginx + PHP-FPM is now serving my web pages instead of Apache + mod_php. And of course, Ventrilo is up and running with a greatly reduced response time.

For swedish customers, I can recommend ITSTADEN. I took a chance with almost no reviews found via google, and a website that doesn’t contain much documentation. However I have got my tickets solved quickly and everything worked out smoothly. And it’s quite cheap :)

Project hosting

October 18th, 2009

If anyone knows of a good project hosting solution, feel free to comment on this post. I want something similar to Redmine (code browsing + tickets), but I don’t like passengers (Ruby on Rails) huge memory allocation. Maybe a solution in PHP 5?
