Bizarre …

21st April 2004

Something really really bizarre just happened today with apache on my web server. When I posted to my blog with NetNewsWire, only half the entries appeared and then stuff started randomly disappearing.

So I just did a *huge* dist-upgrade and things seem to be working better. The slashdot and serverside feeds don’t seem to be working for some reason. That’s a lesson for using debian unstable on a server. I wish it was as easy to go back to stable as it is to go ‘up’ to unstable :)
It’s been a technologically bad day, but things are looking up. I spent the whole morning wrestling with cabling and networking issues. I got up early to go to the gym and ended up trying to fix the network for nearly 2 hours … grr.. Part of the problem is my ADSL router, which badly needs a firmware update, which I’m reluctant to do as it works nicely most of the time and I don’t want to mess things up
