Something Useful
So I decided to use this blog for something useful. I’m gonna actually start posting solutions to problems I find, like every other coding blog out there. The more the merrier methinks.
So #1 issue, was messing around with nginx, after i learned that phusion passenger has a standalone mode. The problem is that this mode doesn’t really lend itself to configuration
So I decided to download nginx myself. Note that (I learned this the hard way) nginx compiles without ssl support by default so you need to ./configure —with-http_ssl_module.
The reason I am doing all of this is because I’m trying to implement a protocol called foaf+ssl aka webid that uses client side certificates
