Post subject: Downtime (July 27th) |
|
|
We suffered about 22 hours of downtime starting Sunday July 26th and ending Monday 27th. What happened exactly remains to be known, but considering the old age of the server the data center decided to move everything to a new machine.
You might have seen the server respond during the day, but MySQL failed to boot at startup. Everything should be fine again. However, during the next few days you may experience intermittent downtime due to maintenance. _________________ Rippance

For now it's the new home. However, I am considering moved to a VPS to cut down on costs. But that's unrelated to what happened. _________________ Rippance

thenthornthing, nothing is lost.
Bradley_Wint, combination of procrastination and the inability to find a satisfying and affordable VPS deal. _________________ Rippance

That'd be a good idea, especially since there isn't much revenue from this site. And I doubt it would make too much of a difference in speed, or would it? _________________

barely since the demands are not near what a dedicated server can push. VPS should be fine. |

Not anymore no. Back in the day this was the only acceptable solution. Nowadays it's quite different. _________________ Rippance
