There is not enough memory or disk space to run the grammar checker

· errors, software, windows

Word (or Office in general) refusing to get proofing tools to work (spelling checker doesn't work, spawns these odd errors, won't find any spelling mistakes, etc).

Lots of Googling and running Microsoft "fixit" applications didn't do much.

Simple fix: run setup of the proofing tools again, and select repair, reboot, and all should be good.

Yourls + WP plugin

· linux, software, www

I came against a problem that my Yourls WordPress plugin refused to generate a short url (it timed out when publishing a post; and it sent a tweet with no url).

And when someone visited the post it tried to regenerate a new short url (and this often resulted in 4-5 short urls being created) with title “301 moved permanently”.
