Roll Over, Rover
Was having various and sundry data errors with my MovableType install on niherlas.com, which were finally attributable to database corruption. Given that I was using BerkeleyDB when I set it up, but now that Pair gives my account level access to MySQL, I just exported the entries, saved the customized templates, and nuked the site from orbit.
Then re-installed 2.661 using MySQL. Restored the four users (me, jenni, stella, and The Boy), the blogs (mine, Nathan's, Stella's), the templates, and re-imported all the entries. All should be good again, save for the repeated spamming of the poor folks reading this blog in their LJ friendslist. Whew.
I'm getting pretty damn good at this shit.
