Hello World! RMO’s database went crazy.
Posted on | July 31, 2008 |
Hello everybody…
ReapMoneyOnline’s been down for nearly a week. There was much nail-biting while we waited for the tech guys to upgrade our account and put RMO back online. Then, the news came… RMO had a WordPress issue. When the database was activated, every time it got accessed, such as when somebody browsed RMO, the action triggers “massively high server loads,” that’s their word and we have no idea what they meant except that it was bad tidings. Sentences that have the words issues, databases, servers, and loads in them almost always denote catastrophies for us poor bloggers.
Three deep breaths and we were on the WordPress drill to expunge any impish code that might be behind the mischief: deactivate or delete all plugins. We got rid of them all to be sure but, still, the dreaded words “failure to connect to the database” stared blankly at us.
No hysterical outbursts occurred. Fact, we saw a bit of humor in the situation, a glimmer of the dark clouds’ silver lining, like what one of our college professors used to say. In the last post we had before RMO took a dive, we talked about overhauling the categories and theme. It seemed like this blog of ours really wanted us to start with a clean slate. 
We have a lot of work ahead of us, trying to reconstruct our popular posts from back-ups. We hope to do them better this time. We thank everybody for their patience and support.

Ouch! Wow I’m so impressed that you kept your cool. I’ve had smaller problems and have cried most pitifully in frustration. I am relieved to see that you are back! All the best!
