    I rolled my own webserver (Mac OS X 10.5.6, Mac mini Intel Core 2 Duo, 2GHz, 2GB RAM) with some admin experience in unix, but little mySQL and PHP knowledge, and cannot get my theme (Thesis) to fully recognize the stylesheet. Font size and type discrepancies are most apparent.

    I have installed, and reinstalled PHP 5.2.6, made databases and deleted databases, made and deleted users, chmod everything to 777, and I don’t appear to be any closer to resolving the issue. At this point, I don’t know if I even have a grasp on where to look for answers.

    I have downgraded to WordPress 2.6, went back to Thesis 1.3.1, and upgraded again to 2.7 and 1.3.3. WordPress doesn’t appear to be generating errors.

    Is there, for lack of a better description, a “diagnostic” theme or widget which could help me to get back on track? I installed Thesis on my netsol domain ( http://www.salemchurch.us.com/wordpress/) and it looks fine. Try the same theme on my server, and the lost styles appear (http://airgo.net/wordpress/)

    Funny that the netsol version (http://www.salemchurch.us.com/wordpress/wp-content/themes/thesis/lib/css/content.php) shows as many warnings as my webserver (http://airgo.net/wordpress/wp-content/themes/thesis/lib/css/content.php), yet still displays the styled elements correctly.

    Since my last post, I re-installed mysql, WordPress and Thesis (a commercial theme). Now that it is all working correctly, I need to go back and enable virtualhosts. I want to note here that an entry on Dan Benjamin’s blog helped me install and configure mysql.
    A key stylesheet still produces Warning: Division by zero in /Users/twheeler/Sites/wordpress/wp-content/themes/thesis/lib/css/content.php on several dozen lines, but doesn’t prevent the theme from displaying the way it is supposed to.
    I’m not knowledgeable enough to pinpoint the problem I encountered, but I respect and envy those of you with authentic *nix and programming experience – suffice it to say that building one’s own webserver is possible with a modest amount of kung fu and the help of good people found here.
