So the server is running again, or so it is having me think. Let’s see if we make it past another 24 hours without something strange going on…
So, this weekend was… interesting. Through something of a comedy of errors, the server suffered some strange software issues that prevented it from working this weekend. There was a bug in a recent update to the server software (running testing software) and that caused longer downtime than it should have due to various interactions between things [...]
I’ve made some CSS changes here, to try to make it easier to read when using cramped display space (and likewise, when using a wide-screen monitor). Also, posts that contain preformatted text that is wider than the display area will now appear with a scroll bar at the bottom. I could have introduced breakage here, so if [...]
The new server is now in. The whole trausch.us domain is now running from it, aside from one service (my email MX backup for my desktop machine). And even better, it’s being run in a Linux Container. The server now has the ability to (very efficiently) stand in for at least 10 servers, nicely and [...]
I’ve been busy busy busy, and I hadn’t even realized that it’s been a whole month since I’ve posted. Oops. I guess for most of the things that I write, Twitter/identi.ca really are where I’m at. Oh, well. I have missed the August 1st goal for releasing AllTray 0.7.4dev, mostly because I am trying to [...]
So, I’ve gone back (for now) to the WordPress blogging engine. My primary reason for this is because it was a bit of a pain to work with BlogEngine.NET, and I simply could not work out all of the kinks. As much work as WordPress is to maintain, it is at least easier than BlogEngine.NET. [...]
Ahh, well, that wasn’t so bad. The upgrade process was pretty simple this time around, so I am running WordPress 2.6. If there’s any issues with it that you notice, please let me know.
I did a lot of cleaning up with my WordPress installation yesterday. Now, the site is running WordPress version 2.3.2, and the new theme that I found yesterday for it. I cleaned up the plugins directory and removed a bunch of things that I tried once but never used again, and removed them. I also [...]
Things over the next few hours/days/weeks will change a bit. I have upgraded WordPress and changed the theme of my site, too. This upgraded stuff will become stable in the next few days. I have also made it a bit easier to actually comment here. I had to re-write the OpenID part into this new [...]
There will be some downtime for the websites on the trausch.us domain tomorrow, starting from 7 PM GMT until about 3 AM GMT (3 PM Eastern to 11 PM Eastern, and these numbers are correct if my in-head quickie addition works as it should), because NFSN is moving to a new data center to improve [...]
