Apologies for the lack of posts, technical difficulties got in the way

I apologise for the lack of updates recently. I was unable to log into the administration area of the blog for a couple of days, and I spent a good amount of time trying to resolve that issue myself.

I found out today that it was caused by my web hosts upgrading their server software. Since Movable Type isn't completely portable to all OS's, this broke the administration scripts.

Luckily, my web hosting company, Total Choice Hosting, has a great tech support department, so they got my blog back up and running with a few code modifications within a couple of hours after I told them of the issue.

In case any of you out there run into the same issue with your hosts, I'm told the solution is to add the following code into /lib/MT/Bootstrap.pm:

$ENV{'MT_HOME'} = '/home/username/path-to/cgi-bin/mt';

I had tried a similar solution, but apparently in the wrong cgi files. Thanks, Total Choice. I've gotten nothing but good service from them, and they have active MT users among the administration, so it helps a great deal that they know how to help us MT users.

I should be back to my regular posting schedule by tomorrow.
