I just moved the TEDATUM web site<\/a>. I was working with POWWEB<\/a> for several years and all seemed fine. Then “they” decided to move the whole operation from the west coast of the USA to the New England area. A big event they tried to keep a non-event. They did a pretty good job, actually.<\/p>\n

I jumped in right after the move and tried to do some updates to the TEDEX forum that runs in a MySQL database. All name servers hadn’t synced up and so I totally hosed up the SQL database save and restore functions. I didn’t clearly understand the process. So TEDEX started over from scratch. I’ll take the credit for that goof.<\/p>\n

A month later I wanted to set up this blog but the Powweb OPS panel would not let me create another database in MySQL. I should be able to create nine more as I had only created one. Three days of dealing with tech support proved they couldn’t even find the problem let alone fix it. I also noticed another problem. The daily on-line backups were a week old!<\/p>\n

I had a problem with the Powweb SQL server several weeks earlier. It shut down for two days. Tech support said it was OK when they checked it so it must just be a temporary problem. Yeah, right!<\/p>\n

Well, I don’t deal with temporary problems very well. Especially the second time they happen. It’s a big world out here, so I just pulled up stakes. Goodbye Powweb, hello new service. T.E.Datum now lives on ix webhosting<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I guess that is as good as it gets with low cost web servers. Oh!…\u00a0Powweb did find the fault, but too late…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
