Worked from home. Reinstalled solr in a directory that isn’t /tmp, figured out how to do mod_proxy and mod_rewrite so that both GET and POST requests redirect happily. Check it out @ http://archives.library.wcsu.edu/arclight/caoSearch/ ! It’s still got some kinks to work out, but it’s getting there. We’re really happy we were able to copy the index from the old/faulty installation of solr to the new one. It took a long time to index the 7000+ EAD files the first time and we weren’t thrilled at the prospect of doing it again.
I also vetted the “download an EAD file and edit it” assignment for Thursday’s class. It was straightforward. We’re probably going to a more asynchronous format — students’ lives are are more complicated nowadays and they might not be able to make a set class time.
In personal life, I finished off the leftover macaroni and cheese. I’m looking into getting cheese powder to make my own sauce–it might be more customizable than off-the-shelf mac&cheese. It might also be cheaper.
I had 3 hazelnut m&ms and one cherry cordial kiss. They’re very tasty, but not worth a trip to the store, so I should make them last.
Elvis is still really into the feather flirt pole. I eventually put it away slightly out of his reach and he huffed and whined until he figured out how to get to it.
Chris bought me a copy of Tabletop Simulator and we tested out playing Hanabi over the network. It went pretty well.
I’ve been listening to the Saga Thing podcast. I just finished the Egil’s Saga episodes, so I’m sadly nearly caught up.
Healthwise, I feel fine. Still a little congested. *jazz hands*. I coughed once today.
