Fix for: can't use fluid with campfire anymore...
Now that 37signals centralized their user management, my existing Fluid-based campfire doesn’t work. Specifically, I can’t login because it keeps opening a new window in my regular browser to login, instead of completing the login within Fluid.
I googled for “can’t use campfire with fluid” and similar, and no luck. A little more digging and I found reference to Making Fluid Ssbs Browse Only Pages You Want - fluidapp | Google Groups.
All I had to do was to add launchpad.37signals.com to my whitelist of URL’s to browse in Fluid and it worked.
I’m posting this here so the next person may have a shorter route to find the answer.
Installing nokogiri Slicehost's Ubuntu Hardy

For Leopard, installing Sphinx from ports with mysql binary from mysql
Given I’ve installed sphinx
And I’ve used mac port for the install
When I run sphinx indexer
Then it expects the mysql socket to be in /opt/local/var/run/mysql5/mysqld.sock
Given I’ve installed mysql
And I’ve used the binary from mysql
When I run mysqld
Then it use the mysql socket in /tmp/mysql.sock
To get sphinx indexer to use my installed version of mysql, I have to change make a change in the sphinx.conf file to tell sphinx indexer to use the mysql socket in /tmp/mysql.sock:
in some source …
{
sql_sock = /tmp/mysql.sock
…
}
