I'm setting up Bugzilla to run on my MacBook Pro. I've been debating on whether or not I should host it on my hosting services. Since I can't always guarantee net access, I decided to try it on my laptop. We'll see if that was smart or not.

There may be a few other things that need to be done that I had already done as part of other configurations. Please let me know of any oversights.

This one took me a few minutes to find so I thought it was worth a note.

I was setting up Bugzilla on my laptop to track bugs for my software. However, every time I tried to access a page it was taking forever for the update to occur. My URL was http://localhost/bugzilla/. What was causing the problem?

I'm using Mac OS X 10.6.2 and the built in web server, Perl, and MySQL from http://mysql.com

$ ping localhost wasn't working.

References to http://localhost responded quickly.

This web site is published and maintained by Ben Vizzier. I am planning on using it to publish software that I produce.

Please stay tuned.
