First failure to connect with Arvixe

This morning is the first time to have a problem to connect with my databases, and my control panel can not be opened.

I can not even open http://cp.poppy.arvixe.com

The online support is very responsive and told me that "the server is facing a network issue right now and our admins are working with it. Please try accessing your control panel after a few minutes".

I noticed the problem at about 6:40 am. 

Now it is 7:03 am and the problem still exists.

Now 7:28 am and still the same.

Finally it works, at 7:37. Done.

Javascript Hosted on Google Drive Not Working Reliably

Here is the story. I have been using Google Drive to host the javascript files and stylesheet files all the time. It works perfectly, until a few days ago when I noticed that if the web page contains javascript files hosted at Google Drive, it can not be viewed properly from the Facebook built in web browser.  I did some further investigation. The same thing happened when the page is opened in Wechat built in browser.  However, the page works fine when it is opened in most browsers, like IE, Chrome, Firefox. It took me several hours to figure why. And So far I have not find out the reason. I checked the mime type of the files. They are correctly recognized by Google Drive. But the solution is: moving the files out of Google Drive. Now it works perfectly, in browser and in App built in web browsers as well.

How to clear MS SQL Server Database log file on GoDaddy

GoDaddy does not allow webmaster to clear the MS SQL Server database log file. And the Database file size is limited to 200 MB. I used to call GoDaddy to truncate the log file. However, it is really time consuming. Using following workflow I can successfully truncate my SQL Server log file. 1. Create a new MS SQL Server DB name it as NDTemplate.  2. Backup this database as an empty database. The backup file is about 1.6MB 3. Backup the original DB that you need to truncate. At my case this backup file is about 200MB. 4. Generate database script for the full database, and execute this sql script against the empty database. 5. Export the data in the Database to the new DB 6. Backup the new DB again and restore it against the original DB. Now the database will have all the data and structure. But the log file is minimized. It will only include the initial insert log.
