We need to move - Page 4

ProPain · 10-01-2012, 12:20

Had to take down the site for maintenance yesterday. Freed up space on the server so now the front page functions again. Also started a backup to facilitate our imminent move.

I'm hoping we can get our new server space up before the weekend and aim to move during the weekend. Will keep you posted.

Meantime I kicked some old thread on that other site. Maybe handy during the move. http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=51969

I'll update in that thread when necessary, I'll also maintain a thread at the reefgaming.com (http://www.reefgaming.com/phpBB3/) forum to update you. That last one is the easiest for me as I have admin options there

Yesterday I heard the current server will be up untill feb the 1st for sure and very likely untill the 1st of march. That provides some leeway for the move but I'll be aiming to move next weekend anyway. I'd like to have email capabilities again

Keep you posted.

But you also tricked me in to going there!

OK, I got confirmation from our new ISP that our space is up. Haven't tested it yet but will do that asap.

The way things look I'll be moving us over during the weekend. Will post when I've decided on the exact timing.

Won't manage to do it this weekend. Personal stuff prevailed

letting you all know I plan to move CDZ tomorrow. I did some research and it seems this should be rather straightforward.

The plan is as follows:

- I'll shut down CDZ somewhere around midnight tonight (about 14 and a half hours after this post) and start backups and downloading.

- tomorrow I'll bring back up the forum asap without the attachments

- I'll be uploading attachments during the day

Reason for uploading teh attachments seperately is that these consume a lot of space so it will take a while. The forum will work perfectly without them though, we'll just experience some 'broken link red X's'. They will gradually disappear as the upload progresses.

During downtime I'll be keeping an eye on the reefgaming forum and will be online on Steam.
