Exposing my private life for everyone to see was not something very natural. Then I realised that although accessible to anyone there were – and still are -  actually very few people, if any, reading my blog. That made things easier. These days, I write mostly for myself. Just now, I was going through some very old posts of mine. This is what I like about blogging. It allows one to capture one’s thoughts and feelings at certain points in time. And to be able to go back and read them. It’s a bit like being able to travel in time.

Back then I seemed to be most prolific in the early hours of the morning. Looking at the time now (1:56 am) it doesn’t look like this has changed much.

I quite like it. I’ll give it a few days to completely make up my mind.

With the site being live again I thought I’d use the opportunity to break it again. And wrong I was! I decided to upgrade WordPress to the latest version (2.8). As it turned out it was dead easy. I’ve followed the instructions here and it worked a treat. It’s nice that once in a while things just work. And I’m even more impressed because it’s all open source and it didn’t cost me a penny. So nicely done WordPress!

It must have been caused by some kind of upgrade my web hosting provider has run. I’ve noticed the issue sometime ago but thought there was some maintenance on their servers so I didn’t look further. After a while though I realised  something was obviously wrong with the site so I decided to dig around a bit. From the error log files I noticed the following entries

wrapper: /web/sites/…/public/blog/index.php: Script is writable by others

Quite an odd error. So as always I googled it and found some info here: http://www.colinmcnulty.com/blog/2009/03/22/recovering-from-internal-server-errors. Following the detailed solution I’ve quickly brought back the site up. I’ve been fairly satisfied with this provider which I’ve been using for years. In fact it’s really the first time I’ve had such issue so I guess I can’t complain so much. Plus, it’s always a nice feeling to fix something.

It’s simple and yet stylish. Hope you’ll like it too.
