Well as you might have noticed, I’ve migrated from blaenkdenum.com to blaenkdenum.com. It’s a long story that I’ll go over on the weekend, a longer one is why I haven’t been here for about a month haha. Anyways, it took me a while to migrate things over. I found a very nice command at the DreamHost wiki that helped me migrate the databases:
mysqldump -h oldhost -u oldusername -poldpassword olddbname | mysql -h newhost -u newusername -pnewpassword newdbname
This allowed me to easily migrate. Migrating the subversion repositories and mysql databases proved easy though, I just had to change their hostnames. The reason I had to use the command above was because I wanted to retain the ‘one click install/upgrade’ ability which is actually really nice on Dream Host. To do this I had to install whatever I wanted through there be it WordPress, phpBB3, or MediaWiki, to a new database. Then after the vanilla installation was complete, I dumped all of the database’s tables and used the command above to copy over the database. I then went ahead and searched the database for any occurrences of ‘blaenkdenum.com’ and if there were any, I changed them to ‘blaenkdenum.com’, only for settings and options. I wasn’t going to go through and do that for every single little reference, only for certain options like that of WordPress’. Then I overwrote or compared and merged the old site’s files with the new ones, only certain files of course. This was pretty much the method I took for everything, with a few other problems here and there, but overall I think I’m done.
I’ve got the pastebin, this site, and my instagib site working. Tomorrow I’m going to try and migrate my friends’ sites. I’ve also changed every occurrence of my name with Blaenk Denum, it’s no secret who I am or anything, but because of the domain change I figured I’d do that too.
Anyways, expect to see a lot of content more often here! Really! I’m going to post anything I see on any of the many feeds, of course giving proper credit, hopefully giving you the most interesting of news, articles, reviews, commentary on current events, and other things. I will also be creating more screencasts very soon.
Stay tuned for a more proper ‘I’m back’ post soon, most likely tomorrow. I have to get to my homework 
Oh yeah…the Writers Strike is Over! What a coincidence. Expect me to go over why I’m glad it ever happened soon!
Due to migration, there will be many broken links (Also due to the fact that I linked things in a stupid way, at least when I first started the site), so if you find any, please let me know!
