Full Version: Not rebuilding, yet no errors...

On or around Sunday, my client (RadioInsideScoop.com) uploaded enough audio archives to finally go over his disk space limit on his server. This was coincident (possibly correlative) with the last successful rebuild of our blog. Since that time, all changes to the database (posted comments, deletion of inappropriate comments, updating of blog entriest, etc.) appear to successfully update in the database and the MT engine reports all the pages being successfully rebuilt. Nevertheless, the pages remain as they were since the last successful rebuild. Server error logs are unavailable before today.

Since being assigned to the case, I've performed a few diagnostics. First, we deleted sufficient files to get under our limit. This has not had an effect on our ability to update the website and changes made appear to reflect only in the MySQL database and not in the rendered pages.

Second, our administrator reports that the server is setup such that beyond a threshold, all files to be written to our directory (if we exceed our file limits) apparently get written to dev/null. This raises the concern of MySQL database integrity and MT file integrity. (I have since reloaded the MT files in cgi-bin/*.* without success.)

Third, we are able to FTP files to our directory. Hence, the account does seem to have write permissions. All MT files appear to have correct permissions.

At this point, I'm running out of ideas and I'd like to know what the brain trust thinks. Our administrator feels it is not a problem vis-a-vis his server, but instead with our movable type engine.

Can someone have a look around? Thank you in advance.

Experiencing Exactly the same problem!

This user's problem was resolved by:

1) Running a REPAIR command on the MySQL database.

2) Updating the paths in Core Setup (the server path had changed).
