![]() ![]() However, after working on resetting up the blog for a few hours, and feeling quite relieved, I went over to the server machine and checked again. Whether or not the job status indicator in Launch Control actually switched to "running" during that time, I do not recall now. ![]() The Launch Control app was showing that the cron job I had set up in launchd had an "OK" status, and was colored green while the web server was running. It seemed at first like things were back to normal as I went about configuring the new WP setup with my particular settings, installing necessary plugins, uploading initial images to the media library, etc. I was very hopeful after performing a totally new install of WordPress yesterday. Installing WordPress from scratch and creating a brand new mySQL database for it did not help.ĭespite doing all of that, and losing my nine-year-old blog, the problem persists. Installing a new copy of MAMP Pro 5.7.0.0 over the currently-installed version of 5.7.0.0 did not help. Re-installing a new copy of WordPress 5.4.2 over the current WP installation did not help.ĭeactivating all WP plugins did not help. The reason why I say this is because I tried everything, and yet the same problem persists. However, now I am not so sure, and I may have lost four years of blog posts needlessly. Initially, I assumed - perhaps erroneously so - that the problem may have involved corruption in the mySQL database. Sad to say, transferring everything from a 2009 iMac Core 2 Duo running El Capitan to a 2019 Retina 5K, 27-inch iMac running Catalina, broke something in my WordPress blog setup. This old machine was running the entire web server, website and blog under El Capitan 10.11.6 without a problem for many years.īefore I lost that old machine, I had transferred the entire web server setup over to my newer 2017 5K iMac, because I already knew that the 2009 iMac's days were numbered. ![]() :)Ībout ten days ago, the 11-year-old iMac on which I was running my web server - which hosts my website and WP blog - died, thanks to a series of power fluctuations and outages from which my APC line voltage regulator could not protect it. Alright, this is a question for all of you "heavy guns" who really know your stuff. ![]()
