Switching Servers

[Ben]

I know it's a pain but it's necessary that we switch to a new server again as our current set up is far to costly to continue to use. The new plan will actually allow us to get more for about half the price.

I will give 24 hour notice when we switch, but like in the past there's going to be issue with DNS and accessing the site for a few days after the move.

I kid I kid. Should be nice.

Fair enough. It's no problem and it's the best logical thing you can do especially for the future. The sooner the better.

All the data will be safe right? Like the e-fed stuff and all the discussions?

 

[Ben]

Yea everything stays as is just a different host. I've done this like 5 times now so I see no issues.

 

[John McHenry]

Except for the RRS account right all that will be lost.

 

[Ben]

Switching this time tomorrow evening.

 

[Ben]

Switch is done site is now on the new server.

 

[Ben]

Please report any issues here. So far everything seems cool and the site is moving really fast for me.

Everything is loading kind of weird for me right now. It's slow and sometimes doesn't even load a page. I hit the back button and suddenly I'm in the page I'm looking to get into. Anybody else having this problem or do I need to beat the shit out of my router?

 

[Chris]

I haven't had any problems except for right after the switch was done I'd get the "WrestlingSmarks is updating" thing again a few times and I'd have to refresh to see the page I wanted to. It's been fine for awhile though.

So far this is the only website that it's doing it to as every other website I frequent is fine.

 

[Andrew]

Perfecto!

What's changed exactly?

 

[John McHenry]

No issues here. Wouldn't most of the issues be DNS issues and thus unreportable?

[MENTION=54]Chase[/MENTION] messaged me earlier and told me that he still can't get on the forums. He's still getting the 'WrestlingSmarks is Currently Upgrading. Thanks for you patience we will be back up shortly.' message still.
