The slowness is, i guess, half the server itself and half the fact that the database server and web server are not connected locally and may even be on opposite sides of the world for all I know.

If you want to integrate the osid into your site then you can link to it directly quite easily. All you need to do is get to your osid on my site then copy the url and add "&direct=1" to the end e.g.

http://therx.t35.com/index.php?page=OSID&os=therx&direct=1

Later I'll add another thing so that you can use your own style sheet

kool!! Ok, you should add multiple language, platform, compiler, platform, and UI selection. That would be very nice.

It'd be kool to add voting too. Direct links to source and bin image would also be nice.

Site now at:-

http://therx.sf.net/osdev/

This is reliable and fast. I will be taking down the others as they run off a different sql db and keeping the two databases the same would be a nightmare.

It's still messed up dude :).

Managed to signup, but you have some odd stuff going on with whatever means you use to keep track of being logged in. It keeps dropping my login session and calling me guest again. Maybe cookie timeout or pages not refreshing or something.

Couldn't add an entry to the OSID. Name field of the OSID isn't accessible which may be the reason why.

Difficult to say what is/isn't working until you fix the login session issue. If you need help with the PHP then mail me and I'll see what I can do.

Wow, much faster!

Could I have my password reset, please? :)

Tim : i've deleted your account so that you can sign up again. The problem was probally that you signed up before I changed it so that it wasn't case sensitive.

Curufir and Soul17 : I've noticed that you signed up but you will have noticed that you couldn't edit your OSID this was due to a bug in the signup script, which has been fixed. So I've added you manually and it should now work.

Any one found even more bugs?

Intended to access the mentioned site, but it spat out this error:

Parse error: parse error in /home/groups/t/th/therx/htdocs/osdev/index.php on line 199

So, I reckon you check your php code. Haven't got a local LAMP-Machine setup to test code? I always test my code on my home LAMP before publishing it.

Sorry about the problems/bugs at the moment. First I had made a one character mistake in the signup sql query. Now I'm having problems getting sessions to work on SF (it works on other servers) The probelm is that SF thinks that index.php?page=1 is a different page to index.php?page=2 so I get two different sessions. So I know you won't be able to login and the following will have to signup again due to my signup bug:-

Beyond Infinity
Chewbakka
Thomas

Remember that your username is used as your OS name so enless 'Thomas''s OS is called 'Thomas' you may want to use a different name.

I'll let you know when login is working

Ok I know the bug. Sourceforge run the one version of PHP where sessions are broken 4.1.2 I'm submitting a request for them to upgrade as it also makes their site difficult to use.

Right got it sorted. The sessions were working somehow in 4.1.2 but because they have a cluster of web servers with their own /tmp directories I had to set the session_save_path variable.

The site is now up @ http://therx.sf.net/osdev/ withouty, fingers crossed, any bugs

Right now for some sleep
