Long boring day ahead

So most of this week was spent patching a small bug (Not so much a bug as an annoyance) in customer websites.

Followed by hours upon hours to upload all of those changes.

Then hours changing websites to find I intrduced a new bug (This one was a bug) into these websites.

Followed by more hours to change them back to the backups.

Followed by minutes to remove the bug I introduced.

Followed by hours upon hours to upload all of those changes. Again.

And today will be filled with hours upon hours updating those websites. I have 5 done out of 200ish.

Wish me luck.....

Work, Work and More Work

Been spending most of the day updating our websites for work.

It's mostly just small bits of code to shrink the overall website size for faster loading and easier updates. But still very time consuming when there are 200+ websites.

The code is quite unique on each website. So that means each update consists of the following

  • Create backup
  • Copy images, web.config, and skinning files to testing site
  • Copy new updated pages to testing site
  • Lots and lots of testing of main page, login, registration, etc..
  • Delete old pages from main site
  • Move pages from testing site to main site.
  • Repeat 200+ times

That makes for a very long day. Hopefully only another couple days of updates and I'll be finished and moving on to my next project.

OK, technically it's not a next project, but a project I was working on before I had to do all these updates. I always find it so hard to stop in the middle of a project and start back up. Takes quite a bit of time, sometimes hours to remember what you were working on before you stopped.

 

Well enough procrastinating, back to work.
