If any of you it’s currently using Dreamhost as Hosting provider, since yesterday they had made some modificataions deprecating “Options +FollowSymlinks”.

This means your site will return an 500 Error.

After talking to the support for more than 1 hour they admitted they have made changes in the policies and now we should use “Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch” instead.

Pretty bad communication from them and making this changes without noticing them.

If you are affected by this issue, please your .htaccess for Open Classifieds should look like this to get to work:

ErrorDocument 404 /
Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^category/(.+) index.php?category=$1
RewriteRule ^offer/(.+) index.php?category=$1&type=0
RewriteRule ^need/(.+) index.php?category=$1&type=1
RewriteRule ^type/(.+) index.php?type=$1
RewriteRule ^publish-a-new-ad-for-free/ new/index.php
RewriteRule ^contact/ contact/index.php
RewriteRule ^privacy-policy/ privacy/index.php
RewriteRule ^sitemap/ sitemap/index.php
RewriteRule ^advanced-search/ search/index.php
RewriteRule ^map/ map/index.php
RewriteRule ^(.+)/(.+)/(.+)/(.+)$ item.php?item=$1&type=$2&category=$3&title=$4
</IfModule>

Remember that needs to be in your language.

This would be fixed for Open Classifieds 1.6.1 that is coming soon with few improvements to make your life easier.

I’m getting pretty annoyed by this hosting, since I use a Privvate Server and this things should never happen (as this other one http://j.mp/d8WVXY).

More or support for Open Classifieds in the forum.

I hate IE6 as many of you do. Long a go I’ve decided that my scripts are not going to be tested in ie6 anymore.

Few webpages they are not longer supporting ie6 and are recommending to change it, to use other browser. But now the giant the “Big Boss” Google is doing one step further to say bye to IE6.

They sent me this email yesterday that I absolutely aprove!

Last day of the year and waiting for a new fresh start ;)

This year was specially fast at least for me. I did many things, that involves many areas from my life, travelling, studying, developing…

Maybe some of you are interested in what I’ve done this year:

• In February I moved from Holland to Thailand for 5 months.
• In March I started developing Open Classifieds, just for learning.
• I’ve visited Malaysia , Vietnam,Liverpool, …
• In July I moved from Thailand back to my home in Barcelona.
• I have twitter account since July only…
• Since August we have our lovely cat Chang (means elephant in Thai).
• In August I started this blog, with the forum and the lab ;) (Currently I have 300 unique visitors day)
• In September I started English school for first time in my life and it’s in the official school level 4 of 5.
• In October I’ve quited my work and I started a Software Engineering Master.
• I’ve went to the PHP international conference in Barcelona as Speaker.
• I started playing paddle and Ive been defeated twice by my dutch girlfriend :S

Goals 2010:

• Finish my studies successfully.
• Release Open Classifieds 2.0.
• Visit more and more countries!
• Start my own E-business (already working on it).
• Defeat my gf in Paddle, finally.
• Learn to use a PHP Framework (Still don’t know which one).
• Learn to relax and take it easy.
• Driving license for motorbike (now I can only drive 125cc).
• Attend to more conferences, even if I’m not an Speaker.
• Stop smoking (wait I never smoked!!)

BTW, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Last weeks I’m having more visitors than normal in all my sites, around 6.000 unique visitors per day.

This shared hosting can’t handle it at all…then I have  just hired a dedicated server.

Maybe you see that I’m not posting or that there’s not activity around here, but trust me there’s…a lot!

All the services are affected by this, like:

neo22s.com, forum.neo22s.com, open-classifieds.com, deambulando.com ……. and 16 more…

Please some patience, thanks ;)
