Problem Solved

I can no longer recommend http://1and1.com as a good ISP.  While their services are cheap and easy their tech support is some of the worst I’ve ever encountered.  The (overseas) techs are often completely ignorant of anything but the most basic problems. 

After spending almost a week and half going round and round w/them, I fixed the problem myself.  They kept blaming WordPress and WordPress says it was  a standard they were ignoring.  Blah blah blah. 

Anyway, I wrote a script and then found an even simpler one that solved all the issues (so far).

The sub-domains

http://blog.mobius.name

Http://calendar.mobius.name

http://www.sfmoby.us

are all functioning correctly once again.

  1. I thought 1&1 specialized in ASP/.net hosting…maybe that’s why they were clueless? I remember I had a WP blog hosted on 1&1 and I had not problems with it-but that was a few years ago.

  2. i have been using dreamhost for 8 years and they have been pretty problem free the entire time. since switching to WordPress, it’s been even better because they have a one click install of updates to WordPress. They are pretty cheap too!

  3. the only time i write in script is when i sign my name.

    oh.

    you weren’t talking about *that* kine script.

    never mind.

  4. You are so correct!!! 1and1 tech support is truly the worst… though, its actually BETTER than it was 2 years ago (can you believe that?)… GoDaddy is pretty much the same. I guess the old adage… you get what you pay for, still applies.
