You Get What You Pay For

Well guys, it seems that we here at The YWO Show will be letting you down again. Instead of launching season 2 today, we will be delaying due once again to issues with the server. Here is an email that I just recieved from Roy The Tech Guy:

"Joel:
Well, it's like this. I've been attempting to set up ONE Wordpressinstall on the server for the last two weeks, every time it's told methat MySQL won't allow it to connect so it can set it's database up. Inan effort to get everything all set up again, I did a reinstall ofportage (the central package manager for Gentoo) and discovered thatMySQL now refuses to let ANY wordpress install connect to it's database.Frustrated I issued what I thought at the time was the reboot command tosee if clearing out the lock directory would help only to find that Ihard shut down the machine instead of rebooting it. Jim is aware thatthe server needs to be restarted and I'm sure it'll be back up sometimethis week.HOWEVER with the SQL issues unresolved (and essentially fucked) we'rebasically without a feed until I can make the trip up (probably sometimethis week) to back up our podcasts, reformat the harddrive and reinstalland reconfigure the entire system.

So until the man gets to reinstall everything on our server, it looks like we'll be down again. Unfortunately these things happen. It just always seems to happen with the worst timing possible around here. However, we will still be doing a live show tonight at The Marketplace located on NMU's Campus, so be sure to turn out for that. If for no other reason than to bitch at us for this latest fuck up on our part.

Sorry gang, but we will get this taken care of ASAP, and we still hope to see you all tonight!

~peace, props, & chicken pox
