Why does CBLL.net Look like this?

Like a vast number of other web sites on the Web, CBLL.net uses CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) technology to present the pages. Your browser either could not find or does not support the CSS code.

You can continue to use this page as it is, it will work fine. If you would prefer to have a better experience you can download the latest version of a modern web browser. The major browsers should render the page well. Others should also do fine as long as they support CSS.

MySQL System Error

I noticed today that my articles/howto pages were producing the following fatal error:

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 111 in /home/www/cbll.net/public_html/backend/global_funct.php on line 23
Error selecting the database

Unfortunately, this probably was like this for quite a while. I do believe the change occurred during the upgrade to Debian 4.0 on andreas. The MySQL server was changed so that it did not accept TCP/IP connections and in my config files I had '127.0.0.1' instead of 'localhost'. When using MySQL, '127.0.0.1' uses TCP/IP while 'localhost' uses the mysql.sock socket.

See http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?52,151255,156258#msg-156258

I guess we will check to make sure everything works afterward next time w upgrade MySQL!
