Came across an article today linked to off the FreeBSD site that had some particular interest to me. I've had a lot of people tell me that Linux works better for database because of its supported filesystems. Well not for much longer!

"New performance improvements in FreeBSD 6 will take advantage of the new SMP architecture. It will also have the ability to scale to eight, 12, and 14 processors. The filesystem is now multithreaded, which, according to Long, will allow for much better performance of mail servers and database servers."

Which is awesome to hear, better SMP support and multithreaded file systems! FreeBSD community never ceases to amaze me. The article also talked about some neat features coming in the new version of OpenBSD which should make it an even better platform for BSD based router / firewall.

Well the past 8 weeks of my life have had a lot of ups and downs I must say but it feels like its all finally paid off. I got to launch a new site on Friday that I'm really happy with. I got to work with some great team members and we all pulled together and created an awesome site, or at least I think so! Club SOAPnet launched on friday without a hitch. There are a couple of small things missing and should be a nice easy week of clean up. I spent a lot of time before beginning development working on the data model and looking through PEAR to see what packages will help me out. Some of the challenges were integrating with the Disney Global Registration system but that worked out in the end using curl to keep a seemless login process. It was nice not having to worry about storing sensitive data for once thanks Disney for taking that off my shoulders. I coded the whole site in about 5 weeks time using PEAR and my own custom, makeshift framework. My PHP framework isn't quite there but I'm very happy with the progress I've made on it with this project and it gave me a lot of insight into some more ideas I want to build into the framework. Hopefully if i get all that information gathered together outside my head I will share it with you all. Until then enjoy the site and let me know what you think!

So I was using curl to plug into an external API for a project, and was using CURL to pass some variables too and from. I got CURL moduel setup and running in php easily enough but was still having issues hitting an SSL. So I uploaded it to my webserver and it worked, so something in the windows SSL .dll file I had was a little off. I did some digging in the manual and found this:

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);

that fixed it right up. For some reason it couldn't verify the CA host on my windows testing server. For testing locally it was a quick fix and made things happy so yeah!
