Blogger: Another blog is already hosted at this address.

Today I ran across the issue on blogger for setup of domain name with error message of "Another blog is already hosted at this address.".

This particular error seems to come from multiple scenarios:

  1. Domain being used up by setting up as Google Apps domain and using the sites feature of google apps.
  2. Or another administrator or the same person, long ago setup the domain on another login of the blogger/google account. 
  3. Domain name mapping changed after blogger publish setup; and it is not mapped correctly to ghs.google.com under the domain registrar after either moving the domain to new registrar or the zone file updated without reestablishing the old zone file settings.

For the first issue the tipsblogger have a solution with screenshots:

I will update my blog to add more details or scenarios where this issue might be the reason later on. If you have thoughts or suggestions regarding this issue please post it in the comments area.

Thanks.

Rosetta Stone: 2125 Error Message

Update 2: It seems if you have an external sync hard drive or storage, setup to keep two computers in sync with each other, the tracking.db3 file will get corrupted. Even if the sync feature is only used on a single computer as a backup method and not connected to second computer. Make sure to exclude the Rosetta Stone folder in case you have any sync features from external hard drives, or service from dropbox, jungle disk, cloud storage or other file sharing application setup on your system. Update 1: Rosetta Stone has posted an update on it's website on how to upgrade. http://support.rosettastone.com/link/portal/14006/14042/Article/5527/Update-Instructions-Rosetta-Stone-Version-3-Latest-Application-Versions Original Post:  If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7 then most likely the issue is with the permissions of the Rosetta Stone Software.

Google Mail Hangout Message Upon Delete Action

Don't know if I get annoyed this much as the Google's Mail Hangout Message, when I select to delete number or messages. " Because some are part of a Hangout, they have been removed from your Mail mailbox, but will still show up in other Hangouts apps and chat windows. " The message takes over the entire tool bar, and does not allow me to repeat the actions, it does not goes away until way late and would have appreciated but not allowed is a option to close. If I want to delete more items on the same page than i have to refresh the window to repeat the task. Wish the future update can allow me to close this message.
