One more thing to fix

Another close call... I typed a nice long blog (If it had been a snake) and stupidly did not save a backup of it, and when I hit "publish" I got this wonderful error message:

mk/dir (my URL path): Permission denied at lib/MT/File/Mgr/Local.pm line 100

Crap! Tried to back up in my browser, afraid that my post had been wiped out, but it kept bouncing back to the damn error message. So I thought, OK, must be something to change in the "local.pm" file. Downloaded it, nope...

Managed to get back to my blog home, yea it's still there! Check my blog URL, not posted... Tried to rebuild the index page, the little pop-up window gave me this lovely error message:

Writing to /(my URL path)/index.html.new' failed: Opening '(my URL path)/index.html.new' failed: no such file or directory

That's sort of scary... Stroke of genius, maybe it's actually something really simple and obvious I need to update! Yes, no PERL script required!

Had to drop the 2 out of the "home2" path in my Blog configuration setup under "local site path" and "local archive path". Rebuild successful, I hope that's all I need to fix in this daisy chain. Next obstacle is upgrading from MT 2.21 to 2.51, this is my first upgrade for MT, so if you don't hear from me again for a bit, that might have something to do with it.
