I'm turning it off by commenting out the relevant lines in .htaccess. Here's my current version. I'm now restoring a complete backup of 1.0 and attempting the upgrade from scratch. Hopefully that will go better. --------------------- ErrorDocument 403 /403.shtml #AuthType Basic #AuthName "Autho...

Unfortunately no, I've turned that off before attempting a login.

I tried to upgrade my blog to the latest nightly snapshot and now can't login. I've used the md5 that garvin recommended "john" but when I login using a username that's in the sql table the blog still comes back with "You appear to have entered an invalid username or password" An...

Thanks, I am using a fair number of tags but I wouldn't consider it to be a "lot" but maybe it is... These are my current tags: "|2: 2004, 2006, |6: 666, |A: aggressive, align, annoy, attack, automation, |B: baen, batterygeek, battlefield, beast, belize, big brother, biology, blog, bl...

Thanks Garvin. The last such query was... | 539 | dragon5_serendip | localhost | dragon5_serendipity | Query | 341 | statistics |SELECT neg.tag AS tag, count(neg.tag) - 26 AS total FROM serendipity_entrytags AS main LEFT JOIN serendipity_entrytags AS neg ON main.entryid = neg.entryid LEFT JOIN seren...

My host has disabled my account because of long running queries associated with s9y and while attempting to isolate the cause I noticed that the sql admin was complaining about a couple of tables. With serendipity_entrytags it's saying "PRIMARY and INDEX keys should not both be set for column `...

It looks like this might have been fixed by switching s9y from mod_rewrite to apache error handling and back to mod_rewrite. When comparing the resulting rewrite blocks from my old .htaccess to the new it changed from RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /blog/ RewriteRule ^(archives/([0-9]+)-[0-9a-z\.\_!;,...

Thanks for your reply Garvin but it doesn't make sense to me. If mod_rewrite isn't installed (properly or otherwise) how would the rewrite rules ever work? In addition to the ones used by the blog I've got a number of them in my root folder that all work and don't generate 404s. Assuming it's some s...

I'm not sure what domain they might be using as that's not contained in my logs but if I plug /blog/categories/10-Lab-Notes after both http://www.dragonseye.com and http://dragonseye.com it works fine. After testing what I just wrote, I looked at my logs and found the following: [Fri Oct 6 03:56:57 ...

Thanks Jude.

mod_rewrite is enabled but that $%# googlebot still somehow causes 404 when spidering perfectly valid paths into the blog.

Does anyone know of a way munge .htaccess so that rewriting happens before a 404 is generated? It seems that a 404 is generated whenever someone asks for anything that ends up being "rewritten" such as "blog/categories/2-Tutorials" and I'd like the 404 only to be generated if s9y...

The list is great but there are some problems with country selection.

English, Commercial and Finnish are not countries

I know the USA is unpopular these days (I didn't vote for the joker!) but could we be in that list too?

Thanks for your help. That last tip got me over the hump in that it sent me off looking for helpful flags. It turns out that part of the key was to put the [R] flag in so that URL prefixes wouldn't be stripped. What I finally settled on was the following # # redirect any requests for http://www.lase...

I officially give up for the time being. I have wasted way too much time (especially thanks to Firefox's tendency to cache changes to .htaccess somehow) I found that the code you sent wouldn't work but the following does... RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.laserscoop\.com$ [NC] Rewrit...

I thought since I'm trying to do the following in a directory containing s9y I'd ask this question here. I have a domain "laserscoop" that goes to dragonseye.com that I'd like redirected to a particular category in my blog if the user didn't ask for a particular topic or category . IE, if ...
