Saga of an upgrade

I just pulled up the administrator's control panel and no PHP violations! What a relieft!

Then there was another problem. I could no longer see the database with phpmyadmin.

Yeah, same problem here when I take that stuff.

Cynthia, I hope you took the day off and went to the BBQ -- sounds like you needed a break!

I did go to the BBQ and took the whole day off for the first time in over a month. It was very therapeutic.

This sounds like a nightmare! I figured there were problems and almost offered my oldest son's help. He's a trouble shooter and computer geek, but was in the midst of installing Linux. Lots of swearing was going on for a while here (he's staying with us for a while). So I kept my mouth shut and turned the music up a little louder. I'm patient though, I only get upset if I can't log in. I worry that I've been banned for some reason (chronic insecurity). I can imagine what you must have been going through. I hope things go a little smoother now.

Yes, it has been rather a nightmare. Thanks for the thought about offering your son's help. Yes, computer's can certainly cause some swearing.

Banned? You've never even been close to being banned. Only twice has a person been banned.
Relax!

Cynthia, thanks for taking the time to let us know what happened and, sort of, why. I'm so glad that you were able to access the administrator's control panel without a meltdown and I hope that you were able to enjoy the barbecue without visions of crashes hovering over your head as you tried to relax. I also hope there are a lot more vacation days planned in the near future. You've certainly earned them. Thanks so much for all you do to keep us up and running!

Great work on all of this and thanks for giving the full story! I know enough about the Web and coding, etc., to know that I still don't know the half of what goes on behind the scenes. When I emailed you yesterday about the access violations I was having, I too, thought somehow it was about me. Imagine! However, I didn't think I had been banned; I just thought that my computer -- a Mac -- was the culprit. Obviously, it was much deeper than that. I'm glad you were able to find a little time for relaxation amidst all of it, too.

This version looks very good so far, by the way.

Best.

Juan
