Am I mistaken or is forumtime now GMT + 1?

ProPain · 17-12-2004, 11:42

you're right. Forum time is depending on the server time and we moved to a dutch server.

We can adjust the server time to GMT again, no biggie. I'm also looking for a timezone mod that allows members to set their own timezone. But I have to say that's more of a backburner project.

If you don't do it within 2 weeks, I'll tell you're all fucking cool guys all over CFC.

This is an uber-important project, even more important than having a forum, uh ? what am I saying ? Don't know why, I'm fond of exact time on the Internet, so I hope we'll be able to do everything in 2 weeks.

Many images are still showing up as red crosses ? For example, all the images in the Diplomacy results thread aren't displayed. At the same time some images display properly in some threads...

When will all the images be properly uploaded ?

anarres · 19-12-2004, 02:49

We can only upload some of the images because of the amount of space we have on this temporary shared server. If there is anyting in particular you need then post the url here and I can restore it.

When we move to the permanent server it will all be restored.

Final phase of site move

The new server has been delivered so we can start moving CDZ to it's final destination. This will involve the following steps:

1) testing the server.
The new server has a slightly different setup than our current temp space. Obviously we need to test this new setup.

status: 100%
ATF: 30/12/04

2) closing CDZ
Just before moving we need to close CDZ in order not to lose any data

Status : 100%
ATF: 30/12/04

3) downloading & uploading CDZ
Depending on how we can organise this step it will take a little or a lot of time.

When we can stream directly from one server to another : quick
when we can't : slow

status: 100%
ATF: 30/12/04

4)Uploading the old pics
Apart from that we need to upload the old uploaded directory which is a measly 400MB and this will take a few hours.

I hope I can do this around new year when all you europeans are getting drunk anyway. However since I'll be getting drunk myself this depends on the level of automation I can achieve. Obviously I;m not staying home to watch the upload when I can go out and have a few drinks.

status: 100%
ATF: 1/1/05

Ouch!

ProPain · 28-12-2004, 22:16

Just to clarify matters. The last step can take place while the forum is online. So basically I suspect the only downtime will occur on thursday.

And remember, it;s for a good cause!
