It turned out it was all because of the web server not having the rewrite module ! and it’s also said so in the installation guide specs !

I’ve added a check for that feature on the installation code, but please remember: rewriting is needed

Lots of bug fixes, some new features, some brand new refactoring and a little bit of pride ;)

We’ve focused mainly on the install process. We are aware the former install-through-wiki-and-you’re-on-you-own-buddy method was not what you would call “simple”.

This time we’ve developed an web interface for the install process. We have tried hard to make it as simple as possible, making savings on time and confusion, and we also have taken into account that there are quite a few of you -our brave alpha testers- who does not have more than a cheap shared hosting provider which won’t let you much of an access to the server machine, so we’ve  assumed you’ve got only ftp access to the server and nothing more.

In this version we’ve made a zip file available for download for those of you that use windows.

We’ve also made two new wiki pages: one of them, with instructions on how to switch the page to a debugger-friendly status for those of you who are courageous enough to not only test it, but debug it! The other one is a simple installation guide.

We plan to create several release candidates, as long as bug reports keep coming and we keep (I hope) fixing it. This brings me to the last topic to mention in this post; the community:

Ok, now that’s me talking. My name is Jose Zarate. I’m a developer at MARKHAUS and I’ve been working for quite a while in SIWAPP.

I’ve always heard about the “community”, and how it helps improve software, and all that stuff, but I hadn’t experienced it untill now. I’m completely astonished on the response. It’s not being like playing world of warcraft, ok, but still it’s been a lot of fun to receive tips, bug reports, help, translations from people all around the world! I’m loving this thing, guys! Seriously, the project is being driven by your suggestions and tips, so please, please keep it coming.

Last but not least, we’re still alpha!

Last but not least, please do join us!
