We're back

[obi_waynne]

If you are reading this then you are on our new server!

Phew!

If you find ANY bugs missing images or error messages please PM me with as much information as you can.

It took longer for my DNS to update but I see quite a few of you have already been on the new server and beaten me to it!

 

[Loz]

Good job thanks Waynne.

 

[RobBentley]

Well done Wayne - I know what a pain server migrations can be.

 

[2fast2catch]

whooooooooooo hoooooooooooooo well done

 

[RobBentley]

Wayne - UK2.NET?? Their kit used to be opposite mine in London

 

[pgarner]

hey looks like im one of the last back on. been checkig all morning as been reciving the emails however just got told the pages were missing.
using the .co.uk i could get to the forum but not log on as it automatically put me to the .com site

 

[ben]

Good job waynne

 

[obi_waynne]

I'm just relieved we are there.

(RB - it's actually with vps.net on their cloud network. I'm very impressed with their support and help and they have done a bang up job tweaking the server and optimising it. Plus I can just buy more nodes of power and memory when we need them and hopefully never have to move servers again!)

PG - I got fed up waiting for my DNS to resolve I think my ISP was caching it! I changed my DNS server settings and got on! In a perfect world it should only have been 30 minutes, the DNS actually propagated this quickly to the primary name servers.

Sadly I had to turn the forum off on the old server otherwise we'd have had posts all over the place with missing replies!

The page load time on the old server 1-1.8 seconds on this server 0.08 to 0.3 seconds!

Just hunting down the bugs now. I found and killed a few earlier on.

 

[RedlineX2]

hehheh, i didnt even notice we were gone 'til i checked my e-mail. Didnt have PC access for 2 days:sad2:

 

[lutonmatt]

that tenner i left is missing or was it 20 lol

Looks like a UK2 brand. They've come on leaps and bounds in recent years - a REAL competitor nowadays... :twisted:

 

[claymore]

I was having withdrawal symptoms.

 

[turbonutter69]

Never stopped working for me. I've always been able to log in. Not affected me at all.

 

[coupe]

did ya go away then.

 

[turbonutter69]

Who me?

 

[coupe]

who ????

 

[turbonutter69]

I dunno? Who went away? I have just noticed all the smiley's have changed places.

 

[pgarner]

nope i tired to get on last night around 8 and got the message that the servers were moving and should only be around an hour. was around 2 this afternoon before i could get on. but was getting emails to say peps had replied

you must be special TN

 

[turbonutter69]

I am special me.
Seriously though I haven't had any probs signing in at all. It's like nothing has changed. Except it's faster and the smileys have played musical chairs.

 

[obi_waynne]

It all depends on how long your ISP and your computer caches the DNS lookup for.

That aside though IF ANYONE GETS AN ERROR MESSAGE please copy it and pm or email to me please. I found one this morning in the album, I have done a temp fix and a permenant fix is on the way shortly.

I'm running away now before Waynne throws a coffe mug at me!

 

[obi_waynne]

I think i'd throw a coffee maker at you instead loz! At first glance it had me worried! Then I read it!

 

[Loz]

 

[turbonutter69]

Is there any reason why these Smileys keep playing musical chairs Waynne? They keep confusing me.

 

[ben]

I think thats made my day

 

[obi_waynne]

Not really noticed the smilies, there's no reason for them to keep moving around unless it sorts out your most frequently used ones but I doubt that.

Perhaps they are having a party or just ganging up on you.

I have
:blink1::blink:
:bigsmile::amuse:

 

[obi_waynne]

:amazed:
:toung::sad2:

Can't believe they having a party without me.

 

[Loz]
