Well the house is no longer mine and the moving van has left. I’m glad that is over, but I’m only halfway there.

Well the php script hung again bringing down Planet GS once again. I think its time to dump the php and move back to python. At least there I understood what I was doing. It will take me a couple days to get it back in order, but it will be back.
For [...]

I got it back up and running, but it seems the large amount of feeds had caused PHP to time out. I’ve got a subset of feeds in there right now and I’ll start adding the others back in over th next day or two.
So if you don’t see your blog in Planet GS [...]

Well I’ve got it back up and running. There was/is some sort of weird PHP4/5 thing going on that I’m still trying to debug. Anyway I’ll keep at it and we should be back in business on Monday.

Planet Geospatial is down while I try and figure what has happened in the last 2 days. PGS is supposed to build once every hour but for one reason or another it builds every time someone hits the page which is why it has been running really slow lately. I’ll keep you updated [...]

A couple of people have asked and I’ve finally been able to do it. You can now subscribe to a daily email of all Planet Geospatial posts. Everything that is in the RSS feed for that day will be included. Just follow the link on the right side of Planet Geospatial or [...]

Believe me it is still in alpha stage, but if you’d like to see what PGS 2.0 will look like click below:

Believe me it needs some work. I still need to get the cron working so that it builds automatically, but when that gets figure out, the old site goes away. You’ll notice [...]

Looks like Blogger is out of beta. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it doesn’t SPAM Planet Geospatial.

It has been quite a year here on my blog. Looking back at the stats I’ve pulled out the top 10 posts by popularity (number of comments, visits, trackbacks) and have listed them below.
10. The big picture of ArcGIS Server
Here I try and convince the world that with ESRI supporting OGC and other “open [...]

Yep, I’ve decided that hosting my own blog isn’t for me anymore and I’ve already moved to Wordpress.com for my “host”.  The URL has changed and all the permalinks are exactly the same.  Now I don’t have to worry about updates or why my host changed something that broke Wordpress.  It is somehow relaxing knowing [...]

While on my trek to rural Oklahoma and the land of 14.4 AOL modem connections, I began to rely on my Treo 700p for email and web access. One thing I noticed that navigating my blog was impossible. Well after some work and a great little plugin my blog now works on all [...]

I’m heading out first thing tomorrow to visit the in-laws in Prue, OK. We’ll be visiting my wife’s Grandmother’s farm (yes that is a dirt road in front of it). Its been pretty cold there so I’m a little nervous as I don’t have the proper clothing (I had a jacket on today [...]

OK, it was as simple as ESRI.com overloading my hosted server:
The XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX IP address was firewalled on the server. Most likely there were a high number of connections coming in from this IP and causing load issues on the server. ESRI.com should no longer have any issues reaching the site, I have removed [...]

It looks like for some reason that my host is blocking IP address including ESRI. Believe me it isn’t intentional and we are working on figuring out what the problem is. This includes both http://www.spatiallyadjusted.com and http://www.planetgs.com as they are hosting on the same server.

Yep it happens like clockwork, Blogger feeds are again polluting Planet Geospatial. But it isn’t just Planet Geospatial. I got the same spamming in my RSS aggregator (FeedDemon).

I’ve been telling everyone that the new Planet Geospatial built on SimplePie will resolve the problems I’ve been having, but it gets spammed by [...]

I’m heading out for a 4 day weekend vacation. Have a great rest of the week.

Yea, thanks for all the emails. I’m not sure what Google is up to, but whatever they did caused every Blogger blog to spam Planet Geospatial. It should pass eventually. Right now it doesn’t matter if you use FeedBurner or not as every Blogger feed has been reset for some reason.

I’ve noticed that whatever Google is doing, they are screwing up the Planet GS feeds. Even using FeedBurner, the issues still rear their ugly head and the new beta Blogger doesn’t seem to matter at all. Even non Blogger feeds such as The Earth is Square and Ed Parson’s blog are being screwed [...]
