1-byte html files?

[Paraplegic Racehorse]

I'm not sure what happened. I upgraded to ubuntu 12.04 and reinstalled blazeblogger from the default repositories. My last run of blaze-make turned all my html files into 1-byte files with content of '0'. Source files appear in the source directories as expected. I haven't the foggiest what might be the cause. Theories?

Hi,

Thank you very much for your interest in my software. I am sorry to hear
about your problem. I do not have Ubuntu on any of my machines, but I
downloaded the latest available package (blazeblogger_1.2.0-3_all.deb)
from the Ubuntu repository [1], manually extracted the source files and
attempted to reproduce the error, but with no luck. I also checked the
source code and I cannot think of anything that can cause such an error,
at least not without blaze-make complaining in the terminal.

Before I download Ubuntu and install it in a virtual machine, would you
be willing to download the development version of blaze-make and try
running it (perl path/to/blaze-make.pl) to make sure the problem is in
the code itself and not in the Ubuntu package?

Thank you,
Jaromir

Joromir:

I downloaded the latest source and ran in terminal. See the folowing
terminal output.

Upon further thought, I remembered that I had an error with the css
file the first time I ran make after my upgrade to find that the
symlink I use to point to my site-wide template was broken. I just
checked the link to my html-theme and found the link broken. Would you
add a small function to produce an error and fallback to the default
theme in such instances?

I will file a bug-report on this.
