My blog is back. I am still slightly concerned about that one line of failure:</p> <p><code>Changing values in table wp_usermeta 1/3: Failed</code></p> <p>Should I be?</p> <p>Oh, and from the shores of Tripoli, er Ballard, I thank you. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/259020#post-1035825 Fri, 03 Apr 2009 19:10:27 +0000 jamesisin 1035825@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Oh, I see. You mean my config.php file in WP...</p> <p>Ok, if I change that from wp_ (around the tenth line or so) that ought to point my blog at the correct MySql db?</p> <p>What about that one line of failure I mention above? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/259020#post-1035820 Fri, 03 Apr 2009 19:02:46 +0000 jamesisin 1035820@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Can you give me a bit more information? File name? What ought I change?</p> <p>Thanks. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/259020#post-1035810 Fri, 03 Apr 2009 18:51:25 +0000 hallsofmontezuma 1035810@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Did you change your configuration file? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/259020#post-1035777 Fri, 03 Apr 2009 18:22:54 +0000 jamesisin 1035777@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>The size of my ibdata1 file has not changed, which leads me to believe that my blog is merely no longer pointing to the MySql database correctly (rather than that the database is gone or corrupted).</p> <p>If that helps any... </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/259020#post-1035771 Fri, 03 Apr 2009 18:13:12 +0000 jamesisin 1035771@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I installed the plugin Security Scan and ran it. It recommended a couple of changes. One of which was altering my php database so that it wasn't using wp_ as a prefix. I chose a new prefix and clicked the Start Renaming button. It changed much and failed on item ("Changing values in table wp_usermeta 1/3: Failed").</p> <p>After that I was taken to the initial word press quick start page (as in no blog yet the beginning). I could use a little help with the giant UNDO button. </p>
