Well, it has happened to me. Although I make regular backups of my site, this time I was screwed!
|
|
|
|
Since I'm very interested in <a href="http://rubyonrails.com">Ruby on Rails</a>, I gave a RoR weblog, <a href="http://typosphere.org/">TypoSphere</a>, a try. I exported my entire <a href="http://www.wordpress.org">Wordpress</a> blog to typo and I was a happy man. Until disaster struck...

After a while I noticed that typo's search functionality was not working. I recieved a MySQL error messages that the table containing my artilces did not exists! To make a long story short, all database files containing data were gone. Luckily I make regular backups every day automatically.
|
|
|
|
Well, I make regular backups and keep the seven most recent backup files at hand. But, you guessed it, apparently the disaster happened more than a week ago. So, all my backup files contained the corrupted database files. Bugger!

So, after some flirting with <a href="http://www.adobe.com/products/dreamweaver/">Dreamweaver</a>, <a href="http://drupal.org">Drupal</a> and <a href="http://joomla.org">Joomla</a>, I'm back at Wordpress which really is the best, easy to use and customize publishing tool I know.

|
Since all my previous tutorials are gone, I'm going to start with a clean slate here. Please comment on my articles if you like and feel free to link anything you find here.

For now, I'll have to re-customize my site and then I'm ready to start posting useful things here. |
