Hello world!

Welcome to erblog. This is the first post of many to come…
installing WordPress was surprisingly easy — especially compare to what i went through in the past 24 hours installing MediaWiki at ChezWiki. it turns out FatCow made things more than a bit obtuse in the name of security. after much googling and experimenting, i finally came to this help page with this rather less than helpful advice:
If you would like to run PHP sessions, please be sure to include the following code at the top of any PHP script that uses sessions:
session_save_path(”/home/users/web/<bucket>/<your_homedir>/cgi-bin/tmp”);
session_start();
what the fruck is a bucket? and where can i get one?
turns out the error logs helped me figure out the right path. a more informative help page description could have saved a lot of time :-p
