Website and databases

The saga of trying to get my main Dirk Maggs productions website back up and running on the new host continues.

The support software that makes up Concrete 5 and the other stuff that is not the database turns out to comprise of not 30 000 but 37 000 files and takes some 3.2 gigs of space, I really did not know just how large the website was, but that does explain I suppose just why it took so long to upload on to the host.

The data base is not that big as it's stored as a compressed files and is less than 8 megs in size, at least I think that is what it is as I am wetting this blog else where and I can't check, anyway it's not that big is the main thing.

Now the error I was getting 1153 does have a solution but for the life of me I have not yet worked out how I change a variable in the mysql server, as I have said I am not a programmer so at this time I am just scratching my head on what or how to correct it.

Its looking like I may have to recreate my Dirk Maggs site from scratch, which in one way is bad but in another is good as I might make a better site this time.
