Every so often in the CS4 Flash file I’m working on, the standard flash combobox component seems to corrupt once compiled. You get undefined errors in the output window when clicking on the dropdown which point to some of the imported event listener classes are missing.
The only solution so far is to drop a new copy of the component into the library and replace the current version. Has anybody else seen this before?
Migrating from a MAMP localhost to 1&1 shared server space for a Drupal site, started causing intermittent 500 error pages. But no real feedback from Drupal.
After some digging it turns out that 1&1 default to PHP 4.4.9 even through they have 5.2.8 installed!!??!!

AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

We recently moved to a new dedicated server using Plesk 8. Apart from the usual grumbles of moving 80 domains nothing too bad happened. However, today I hit a weird problem with a slideshow pro Director install. After trying to login you get this message:
Could not connect to slideshowpro.net (using cURL): Couldn’t resolve host ’slideshowpro.net’.
If you manage a dedicated web server like we do at sandbox media. You’re probably regularly asked by clients and colleagues to call up forgotten user names and passwords for the their domain and email accounts. We have remote root access to our dedicated server’s Plesk MySQL database which is really handy for such occasions.
