Temporary blog failure

8 October 2007, 2:03 PM

We are experiencing technical difficulties. Please stand by.

More specifically: Pair upgraded my server to FreeBSD 6.2 this morning, and it appears to have broken my journal. I'm not sure why; some MT blogs on upgraded servers work fine, while others have serious problems. It may take me a while to track down the problem. Presumably it's some Perl code that's fallen afoul of the newly installed Perl modules. I wonder if upgrading to MT3.3 would help.

(I'm not ready to upgrade to MT4.0 yet--mostly waiting for various plugins to be ported over.)

Anyway, if any of you happen to know what might cause this sort of thing, let me know. I would say post a comment, but comments are broken, so send me email instead.

Post a comment

Otherwise, you can enter information about yourself below. All items are optional. Unauthenticated comments on old entries will be held for moderation.

Important note; please read: If you get a server error after posting a comment, the comment probably posted anyway. Try looking at this page in a new window to see if the comment posted before you re-post. Sorry about the likelihood of server errors; I'm still not clear on why that happens.
