Wow, I hadn't even thought of DNS issues because I was first made aware of the strange errors at the same time I had made changes to the DD code. The DNS server would have changed about 5 or so days prior to that. So of course, I went off down the path of something I had changed in the code had broken it all and didn't consider the obvious.
The obvious being, as I'd explained to a friend the other day, if it works for some and not for others – and even then sometimes it works for everyone – suspect the DNS!
I've updated the DNS server (it was wrong, thanks DancingStar's IT dude) and things should return to normal over the next few days. DancingStar – you'll need (in a few days) to ask your IT dude to remove the entry from the hosts file again so that when we do manage to move the server later in the move/early next month, you're not left wondering where we went again 🙂
Thanks for your patience everyone!
Don't forget to look for the DearDiary.Net fanpage on Facebook and follow us on Twitter for updates when the server is having troubles.
is going to find the page right now!
Glad to be of service 🙂
I was completely unable to access ANY DearDiary pages in the past few days — mine, anyone else’s, or the homepage… and all I could get was a blank page with the word "test" on it! Yikes!! I even tried to go to the Kabarty site, but it said Kabarty was no longer in business (or something). I thought — oh, my God! Hundreds of entries! Years of writings! Thousands of my heartfelt pages! GONE?!? But now… here we are! So THANK YOU, and please — don’t scare me like that again!
