Just a quick note to apologize to everyone who reads this blog or subscribes to the feed. We have been offline for the last 4 days due to a hosting issue, basically the old host skipped town.
I have moved host, restored my backups (over 400mb of compressed data) and finally got things back up.
Unfortunately I have temporarily lost some of the data for this blog, it will be coming back over the next few days.
Oh and you might see a few duplicate posts coming through your feed reader as things settle down.
glad its back up. was wondering where you disappeared to 🙂
thanks thomas, so did I for a while!!
Still putting all the comments back into the system, damm backups 😉
backup backup!!! hehe. tisk tisk.
ive actually been thinking of launching my own blog soonish. what are you using? just wordpress?
Yes I am using wordpress, fantastic platform!
I have had several challenges getting things back. First up determining that the old hosting provider had in fact skipped town – 2 days. Finding a new hosting provider – 1 day, getting my backups (450mb) back onto the new provider – 1 day, actually restoring the mySQL databases and testing – 1 day. The restoration was not as easy as I thought, thinking of a blog post about it. The final challenge has been my lack of backup schedule.
Props to Michael for the overtime!
Systematic, still getting all the hrblog.org stuff back 🙂
