Fixed At Last

Well, it’s taken a while but I’ve finally got my commenting and mailing list functionality back up and running again. It’s fortunate that I have a backup strategy for all the data on my site and while I lost a few of the latest posts, I do still have the vast majority of them. What this episode of site down-time has taught me is to perform a backup as a daily task just in case this sort of thing happens again.

I’m pretty sure that if my comments had been working when I posted my Roy Of The Rovers article a few days ago I’d have got a torrent of abuse. Well, now’s your chance!

Oh dear…..

More stories about his BMW I guess

Watch this space ;-)

I’ve got a story about a Porsche 911 Carerra 4, but that’ll have to wait…

Lucky sod! Take a look at my site at the moment… :-(

I discovered I could create new mySQL databases and, rather than wait for my old one to be recovered, I thought I’d start afresh and restore my data.

Must be my impatient nature, and the fact that I just wrote a management section for my comments code that I wanted to test…

Presumably you can get into the Control Panel then?

Eh, not the mySQLAdmin bit, no. But the bit that allows the creation of databases (the 2082 bit) – yes… Can’t you?

No, I get a 404 error. The only thing on my site at the moment is the Apache installation message. Hopefully that means that some activity is going on to rectify things…

Fingers crossed…
