Comments on: Bah http://andrewnorton.info/2008/04/bah/ Observations from Carlton's Lone Classical Liberal Mon, 01 Dec 2008 20:01:38 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Jacques Chester http://andrewnorton.info/2008/04/bah/#comment-12890 Jacques Chester Fri, 25 Apr 2008 05:02:01 +0000 http://andrewnorton.info/?p=463#comment-12890 I've added an A record for www. to catch people coming in on that, it should be active in the next few hours. In any case the vhost configuration strips it off with an internal rewrite. By cleaner urls I mean that I've removed '/blog/', which was a vestige of Andrew's original hosting arrangement at Yahoo. The web server does a redirection, so in theory smart clients and search engines will update their internal settings. More importantly, existing URLs pointing to the site should still work too. Some comments went astray in the move, about which I am very sorry and take full responsibility.

Some comments went astray in the move, about which I am very sorry and take full responsibility.

Indeed, the problem last night was that I could not login, and so could not post or do anything else other than what normal commenters could do. And yes the missing 'www' is a problem - anyone who uses links or bookmarks including 'www' to get to the site will get an error message. But I am sure Jacques needs some sleep! Site traffic is well down on public holidays in any case. NPOV - As you have guessed, your comments from yesterday weren’t deliberately deleted.

Looks like www A-record is missing from DNS. But Jacques - what do you mean by "the URLs look nicer"?? Yeah - what NPOV says. Looks like www A-record is missing from DNS.

But Jacques - what do you mean by “the URLs look nicer”??

Doesn't appear to now - only without the www. I’m fairly sure http://www.andrewnorton.info used to work previously, no? Doesn’t appear to now - only without the http://www.
