Default  Server move and downtime
05.06.07, 03:15:23

As some of you may have noticed, the site was running awfully slow these last few days. In reality, that was just the tip of the iceberg, as basically the server was preparing for a full system failure.

Last night I tried to get the site working until 2AM with no success, which is why you noticed this 15+ hour downtime. The server had set itself to read only mode, and the server I was trying to copy the site to had bad RAM and kept on shutting itself down. Two hardware failures at the same time - what the hell are the odds of that...

During the night the techs seem to have fixed RAM of the server, and everything should now be running smoothly from this point onward.

A bit of the ol' bad luck, eh? Things seem to be running fine now, indeed.

Actually, I'm still getting some rather long load times about 15% of the time.

When it goes into read only it usually means you have exceeded your harddrive space. I think you should look into getting 120 Gig harddrives. But really all this site is...is a database. There is no media on the site.
