Whew, things (including me) have calmed down a little bit09:14:41 AMMySQL is dead, long live MySQL.
Thank goodness there are other options available in the SQL world of servers and databases, for if PostgreSQL were not available, radio hidebound would have been totally offline for the last few days, but as I started to rebuild www.radiohidebound.com, I started to realize that maybe PostgreSQL wasn't really the longterm answer to fixing the problems arising from Sunday's power outage.
So once again, a final attempt as it were, I tried to get MySQL working on radio hidebound's computer. And for some reason, I wish I knew exactly why, I was able to get MySQL running again last night, and recovered most of the data prior to Sunday. Not all of it, but a good portion of it.
There is still some significant work to be done in order to get everything working (and looking) more like it did prior to Sunday, especially when it comes to the playlist rotation logic for radio hidebound, but for now we're relatively happy with how things are working (and looking).
Whew, what an adventure this has been.
