My hosting provider (ServerGrid.com) hasn’t answered my email and I have given up on them. I’m still working on finding a new web hosting company. I’ve looked at bunch and even paid some money for one that I tried out. I’m not entirely satisfied with what I see and hence all available time is spent trying to find a solution. I didn’t have all that much time available this weekend because Barb and all three kids were in the Seattle area and we were doing the vacation thing a lot of time time. See, for example, Xenia’s pictures from the Seattle Aquarium and the zoo.
I have a bunch of domains that need to be hosted with lots of requirements so it is taking a lot longer than what I had hoped it would.
In the meantime my websites and email are flaky (more so than usual) and I’m not putting any effort into blogging although there are some things I really would like to comment on. Sorry about that. Maybe in a couple more days…
Update: I believe all my email and websites are now working correctly. Part of the problem was a messed up namesever that I now have corrected. I’m still moving to a different hosting provider (probably GoDaddy). I’m doing some testing and still have some minor problems to solve with my blog in that environment but I’m getting very, very close.
We recently switched about 12 blogs from StartLogic to Blue Host, costs a dollar a month more but the 24/7 service seems to be there, no long waits and really competent tech folks to help with problems…
Was with the old server for 2 years and the steadily went down hill…
All the best, it’s not easy to move but well worth it for speed and service…
I’ve made a lot of progress. I’ve confirmed everything works for all my sites except for my blog. At first I thought I wasn’t going to get it to work at all. Tech support couldn’t help me (they thought) but they sent me a link that sort of kinda mentioned the problem I was having and that gave just enough of a hint that I made it past a major hurdle. I still have a couple problem but I can reproduce them on my own machine and since I have the source code to the blog I can debug it much better. I think it’s probably just a minor configuration problem and it’s just going to take more time.
