Damn Webhost!
Aaaaggghhh,
My web host provider switched their servers to another flavor of linux. Fine with me but they broke my hit counter in the process. Actually the counters for every domain on that server.
I ssh’d in and the files in the counter directory are all owned by root. The directory itself is owned by nobody, which is correct, that’s the user the httpd daemon runs as… So I made a trouble ticket and explained to them all their sysadmin has to do is chown/chgrp all the files in there to nobody:nobody and it will be fine.
I hate having to always tell the companies I PAY FOR SERVICE how to fix the problems they are having. What annoys me more is how they never know it’s broken until I point it out.
Does anyone run scripts to grep errors from the log files anymore? Guess not.
Oh well, I’m out of the sysadmin business now so I can bitch, right? riiiiiiight!
K, pizza is here so I’m outta here
I’ll post pictures from the beach in the next couple days…
