Movable Type Busted

Ugh, my Movable Type database seems to have gotten corrupted. You might notice that there are three posts from April at the bottom of the front-page right now. I haven't gotten any help from the support forums yet. I'll probably have to end up reinstalling Movable Type from scratch -- fortunately it's still able to limp along enough to export all my entries, although I had to comment out some error handling in the perl code in order to coax it into rebuilding my index pages.

If I were to do this again, I think I would use a simpler system. Preferably one that allows me to regenerate everything from plain old files. I don't mind databases as long as they're not where the source code is kept. I'll keep this in mind if I ever get around to writing a new bliki system...
