I've had another week of problems with Movable Type. Comments and Search weren't working under the FastCGI install I'd done, so I decided, last weekend to upgrade to version 3.34 again. Then I couldn't get FastCGI to work at all and I've had error after error. It's been so frustrating. I've re-read every entry I could find on the subject but to no avail.
Last night I re-installed 3.34, because I realised that version 3.33 was still showing up as the installed version. I'm not sure what happened with the last install, possibly I didn't upload the files in the correct format, although everything else seemed to be working okay. Well now, at least, the version seems to be correct, so I'll start again. I had set everything back to normal CGI and noticed how slow rebuilds seemed so I definately want to get the FastCGI back up and working, but there could be more problems on the horizon.
The comments and search features are working properly, fingers crossed that they'll continue to do so.
I have less than a year now to give up smoking, I promised the kids I'd give up before I turn 50. The count-down has begun.
