The Serendipity Light Weblog

Hello friends!. Checking the packages that the Debian, I found and tried a very light blog and about which little is said in the WWW Village. Its about Serendipity. Name that reminds me of a television series. I don't know, but it brings something like that to mind. Well, taking advantage of the same installation explained in WordPress over Lighttpd + APC in Squeeze, I installed the package using:

install serendipity

After answering the rigorous questions of Do you want to configure the database for serendipity with < >? SiThe type of database to use for serendipity: mysql, and finish with the user's passwords for the MySql database and so on, I found that the Serendipity Light Blog was already installed.

Later I made a symbolic link using:

ln -s / usr / share / serendipity / www / /srv/web.amigos.cu/htdocs/serendipity

without fear of making a mistake when placing it in the root of the site, because the name "serendipity" is not common. I pointed my browser to the URL http://web.amigos.cu/serendipity, and I found a Welcome page half in English and half in Spanish. After accessing the Administration Zone through the user admin and the password admininitials, I entered the blog's control panel, edited the only entry and at the end it was as shown in the following image:

Blog DesdeLinux

It was that simple.

We invite speed lovers to give Serendipity a try. You will surely find many positives. The post editor is just superb. The selection of Themes is very varied. Resource consumption, low. And I can do whatever I want with it.

Prove that the best criterion of truth is practice.

Until the next adventure Friends!
