First Post

April 5th, 2003

Here it is. Movable Type is up and running on my new domain. I’ve seen people complain about how difficult Movable Type is to set up. While it’s certainly more complex than Blogger, I found it to be a pretty simple process. I only hit four hiccups, and they were all simply remedied with a search of the support forums. The four hiccups? I misspelled “cgi-bin” in the mt.cfg file, forgot to un-comment a line in the mt.cfg file for the location of images, set the permissions on a directory wrong, and entered the wrong home URL. All human error.
I’m still a bit curious to see if the archive URLs are going to work out like I think they will and want them to. A couple of test posts to figure that out.
