He's a lucky boy.
I just thought pebble was the most awkwardly cute. (=

Yes, that's cool, too. :D

Everything's been kind of sucky lately.

D:

Hal, you will feel my wordpress pain. I would really like to start using it so that my website will stop sucking, but while my webhost has MySQL, it is evidently some version lower/other than 4.0. When I go to run the install, it says just that I need MySQL 4.0, but doesn't tell me anything helpful, like what it is that I DO have.

I emailed the guy who I buy my space from, but haven't heard back from him at all. When I dig around in my admin panel, nowhere will it tell me what I actually have.

I'm just really frustrated. Any idea how to figure out exactly what I do have/have a suggestion about something similiar to wordpress I might be able to use? At this point I would not care what it took so long as I ended up with an indexable website that didn't make me want to weep.

Try this:

* Make a text file with this content:



* Name it something like info.php and upload it.

* View the file to get lots of confusing info about the server, some of which should be about MySQL.

I can take a look at the info if you like and see what to suggest.

THERE we go. All right, at least I know what I'm working with now. What drama. You're the first person to tell my anything practical at all.

Seems like it's MySQL 3.23.58 and PHP 4.3.11.

So...now what? Is that old enough to be a huge problem?

[prillalar]

The MySQL is pretty old. Where are you hosting? Have you inquired about upgrading MySQL?

[mousapelli.livejournal.com]

I've always had the same host. A guy I went to college with ran his own business and so had his own server, so he defrayed costs by selling a couple of us hosting. Like I said, I emailed him, but didn't get a response. I guess I'll try again and see what's up, and hopefully get some kind of response. I'm not sure what he'll say one way or another.

I renew in January, so I guess I ought to shop around a little. Sigh.

[prillalar]

Yeah, that seems pretty unprofessional to me. You should be able to get reasonable hosting w/ up to date apps fairly cheaply.

In the meantime, back up all your files, just in case.

In other news, I can't find my Kabuto DVDs or my Agito DVDs and so I am *re-downloading* everything.

BTW, it looks like you could install an older version of WordPress:

http://codex.wordpress.org/Hosting_WordPress

http://wordpress.org/download/legacy/

And you should be able to upgrade to the latest version once you have a better server setup. You couldn't tag in the older version, though.
