I got a response from Dreamhost, and it looks like the error is not caused by the MySQL server outage – which brings me back to WP.

Before having the current problems with MySQL I installed a couple of plugins – and I wonder if any of them might have caused the problem:

– Drop-down categories
– Permalink Redirect

… and I was trying to install Filosofo’s Home-Page Control when I got the error message ??

I also edited the sidebar.php for the current theme, 3k2, in order to see how the drop-down categories plugin is working.

I disabled all the plugins, I changed the theme, I deleted and re-installed 3k2 – but I keep getting the same error.

Should I try to reinstall WordPress- the new version, 2.0.3?

Hey – is your blog hosted on Dreamhost, by any chance? ?? They had a MySQL server outage… maybe there’s nothing wrong with WP, after all:

(I’m waiting for a response from them on this issue, as well.)

Thank you, HandySolo – yes, Blogharbor has an RSS feed that I could use to import the entries, but I was hoping to find a solution to import the comments as well.

I have the same problem. When I try to post an entry or write a page I get the following error message:

WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ')' at line 2]
INSERT INTO wp_post2cat (post_id, category_id) VALUES (472, )

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /wp-includes/wp-db.php:102) in /wp-admin/post.php on line 127

I checked to see if there are any white spaces in wp-db.php, I deleted the file and uploaded a new one, but it’s not working.

Despite the error message, the posts are showing on the blog.

Any idea what the problem might be? Thanks so much.

OK, I got the message ?? If there’s no way to make PHP 5 to work with 1.5.3. I guess I’ll have to update to 2.0. Unless there’s a magical solution out there…

Thanl you for the suggestion ?? The thing is that I have a bunch of plugins installed, and I’m not sure they’re going to play well with 2.02.

Truth, thanks for your help! I use PHP Exec – but I forgot to add the <phpcode> tag ?? Now it’s working.

niziol, I’m trying to install the OPML renderer on this page (now displaying “Horrific XSLT error – check logs”).

Well, than I guess I’ll have to live with it ?? Thanks, ceo!

Thanks so much! Would if work if I want to exclude more than one category?

It does have a page.php. Since the page template dropdown menu doesn’t show, I thought it might be a problem with:
$page_template = 'default';
in /wp-admin/page-new.php, but I can’t figure out if it’s something missing, or if I shoud change anything.

I would like to do that :), but I can’t find any dropdown menu below the text area. Here’s all that’s there:

Page Options
Page slug:
Page owner:
Page Order:
Delete:

What am I missing?

I followed Anthony’s instructions by creating an /archives.php page, but I don’t know what should I do in order to use it as a template for the “Archives” page (created with “Write page”).

Any idea? Thanks!

I couldn’t find anything on the del.icio.us discussion list (same for Google) on how to do this with WP…

Wow! That was fast ?? Thanks for the pointer. I’ll look at the default theme and try to figure out, first. Thank you!

Thanks for taking the time to check the blog! It would be great if I’d figure out somehow what’s the “stuff that’s going up at the header” ??
