Planned downtime

(1/7) > >>

Numsgil:
Hey everyone.  I'm biting the bullet and making the transition to a different host.  The current plan expires at the end of March, so this makes good timing.

Starting probably either next Friday night PST or Saturday morning PST the web site is down.  I don't make any promises for when it will be back up.  I'll try to get everything up before Monday, but I can't promise anything since I have to work during the week.  If it takes longer than the weekend, it could run to be a week or two outage.

During this downtime, everything will be down.  Forums, wiki, IM, etc.  It also will probably come up in stages when I get it working (forum first probably, then wiki, then IM).

I'll post here again on Friday morning to warn everyone.  I'll also try to postpone taking the forums offline for as long as possible.

Houshalter:

Numsgil:
I licensed the new server today.  Things are on track.

If anyone uploads any files between now and whenever I say this is done, I can't guarantee they'll make it on to the new server (I'll take the forum down when posting is in danger).

Also, this is the relevant thread for tracking progress (obviously I won't be posting to it when the forum is down).

Numsgil:
If you can see this announcement, you're on the right board.

I still need to update the wiki to the new site, and fix up the DNS so Darwinbots.com points to the right place.

Numsgil:
DNS is set up.  Wiki is set up.  Testing uploads for forum.
