Hi Dana
There are two things I can think of right now that may have an effect on your situation.
1) The error log will repeat errors if it is parsing daily. I would probably not check
this log so frequently and let it go for at least a week or two before making correcting
to any errors. Then wait at least another week to see if my edits were updated okay.
Also, I would not let the error log stipulate how I manage my web pages. These are, at
the most, simple simple code or html errors and do not pose any threat to how I maintain
my archives.
2) The FM uploads to the .net server and the public is directed to the .org server to view
our web sites. This is like a shadow of what we manage and does not necessary show the
current or most recent revisions we make. It takes a few days for the two to synchronize
and duplicate each other. Look at the link for your web page and see if it contains .net
or .org. I use the .net link for everything and do not pay attention to the .org because
of this catch up game they use.
EXAMPLE:
http://www.usgwarchives.org/ky/breckinridge/toc.html - backup server not current with
edits or daily updates
http://www.usgwarchives.net/ky/breckinridge/toc.html - real-time server shows edits and
updates immediately
See if this info will help you manage the errors better???? Excellent question, too !!!
Have fun.
Tom

Subject: Errorlog Question
Hi Tom and Sherri....
Wanted to ask a quick question regarding the errorlogs I've signed up to get each
day. Do you all know when the errorlogs are generated? I've been getting them
regularly, and each night have been going in to correct the error.... but I've found
I've already corrected it last week or earlier on. I didn't know if the errorlogs
were literally from the same day we received the email of the log, or if they were from
another day (and if so, which day it was).
I've held off on uploading any files or updates to the pages from work (the
uploading/updates are of the DC project the transcribers and I are working on), but
it's only now that I've been able to email and ask about it due to a massive
windstorm that knocked out power to 60% of the people in Louisville. With things starting
to settle down somewhat, I'm moving more into a "work" mode and wanted to
make sure all my ducks were in a row.
Y'all have a good one!
Dana
