Pebble 1.5.1 – Slick and smooth
An article by Glen
Upgraded from Pebble 1.4 to the slick new Pebble 1.5.1. If you’re in the market for some nice Java blogging software, I can recommend Pebble very highly. Easy to install, great interface, and you can manage the whole thing via the web. Great stuff, Simon!
For those looking to upgrade, things went fairly smoothly. Some of the entries previously in web.xml seem to have migrated to a properties file in WEB-INF/classes, but that probably only affects you if you run in multiuser mode.
I had enormous performance hits on my 64Mb Linode the first time I hit any page (must the JSPs compiling for the first time). By serious I mean: type a URL, wait 90 seconds, get a page. But once that’s done once everything’s working just great. I love the slick new colour scheme, and the new stats page is much nicer (showing Google hits as the terms rather than the raw URL, ditto for the RSS hits).
Worth the upgrade. Can’t wait for the new Swing authoring app that’s coming with 1.6, that’ll be a blast!

Thanks Glen – hope you like the even slicker scheme in 1.6 (for example) and the new logging features that make gathering stats even easier.
