My blog has been off the air for a while. I moved the blog to a new server and recreated the domain.
Turns out the account used to run the blog needed modify access to C:\Windows\Temp - Looks ok for now!
I'm just a simple techie who sometimes forgets things. I use this as a notepad to remember things by. I hope it helps you too. I post as myself, not as any organisation.

Transistion to Cloud Servers
I'm moving all my locally hosted content to cloud based servers. So far I have moved my email to Google Apps For Your Domain and I have created a new blog (no content yet) to replace this one.
The Gmail move went pretty well as all I had to do was update MX, SPF and some CNAME records. The only non-working part was the start page as Google seem to have dropped support for this. I had actually setup apps before this limitation was implied, and I can activate the start page but it just doesn't work. There are others who mention this and the work-round seems just to use a Google Sites page if you want this. In fact there's quite a complete template for sites, just for this. I don't really need it anyways.
The blog will move slower. I have moved it off to a smaller sevrer for now and I'm trying to find a way to export the posts from CommunityServer to Blogger. I may just have to use the smaller server to setup redirects to the new blog.
