I selected Beetlebrow to create our website from a shortlist of 10 possible providers. I was greatly impressed with the time and attention they gave to the school pre-contract, with their most senior staff attending a meeting with the school to gain a sense of its ethos and expectations for its website.

Our demands were fairly exacting and at no point did they attempt to steer us in a direct that ultimately would have made their lives simpler.

They produced a website which has received praise from the school community and many others. It has also attracted the kind of teachers we are looking for; in that respect it hit the nail on the head.

Post publication the service provided by Beetlebrow and its individual team members, with no exceptions, has been outstanding; I use that word as an educator and in its truest and most literal sense.

We continue to enjoy a client sensitive, truly professional service. I look forward to the planned refresh of our site shortly.

"When I set up my business I decided to use Beetlebrow as I liked what they did and the way they did it.

"I didn't want an off-the-shelf product – I needed a custom built site that functioned in a user friendly way and created the right impression. To achieve this, more than technical expertise is required – the designers have to interpret what a "non-techie" wants and create something from scratch.

"The service I get from Beetlebrow is excellent. They are also jolly nice chaps."

Installing Varnish under P4 via buildout

Varnish won't install by default on our centOS servers, so here's what to do

When installing Varnish via building in Plone 4.0.5, buildout fails as follows:

checking for pkg-config... no
checking for PCRE... no
configure: error: in `/tmp/tmpH_CQ5Jbuildout-varnish-build/varnish-2.1.5':
configure: error: The pkg-config script could not be found or is too old.  Make sure it
is in your PATH or set the PKG_CONFIG environment variable to the full
path to pkg-config.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables PCRE_CFLAGS
and PCRE_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

To get pkg-config, see <http://pkg-config.freedesktop.org/>.
See `config.log' for more details
varnish-build: cmmi failed: /tmp/tmpH_CQ5Jbuildout-varnish-build
While:
  Installing varnish-build.

An internal error occured due to a bug in either zc.buildout or in a
recipe being used:
Traceback (most recent call last):

    raise SystemError("Failed", c)
SystemError: ('Failed', './configure --prefix=/usr/local/Plone-4.0.5/NHS_instance/parts/varnish-build')

Firs thing to do is check whether PCRE and PCRE-devel are installed, and if not,

yum install pcre
yum install pcre-devel

Once you know these are installed, the next thing to do is either to sort out pkg-config, or if you don't know where this is, just export the relevant paths for your buildout ssh session.

export PCRE_LIBS="-L/usr/lib -lpcre"
export PCRE_CFLAGS=-I/usr/include/pcre

Buildout should now install Varnish.
