Howto set up your own twitter

July 23rd, 2008 Ansi

So first serious blog entry. I try to install my own instance of identi.ca what is microblogging system. Its based on Laconica. Lets see how to install this system on Ubuntu Server Edition. l.m.orchard has compiled an outstanding description see DECAFBAD.

Additionally a changed something so here are the description for the latest greatest version. I do not repeat his description only point out the changes.

There is a new version of the xmpPHP library available at least a new release candidate.

http://xmpphp.googlecode.com/files/xmpphp-0.1beta-r50.tar.gz

Beside

 cp xmpphp/*.php ../extlib/

also

cp -R xmpphp/XMPPHP ../extlib/

to copy the necessary libraries.
In order to convince apache2 to accept the rewrite it is neccessary to activate the rewrite module with

a2enmod rewrite

/etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload

The XMPP Part is still not running but I try this tomorrow.
