Folks, just thought I'd post the question here since it kinda caught me off-guard. Did any of you experience problems accessing the ol' forum last night around 10:00 pm CST? I am just wondering since I wasn't able to access it myself.

I just had problems for what I think was about 25 minutes.
The time period was approximately from 10:15 pm CST to 10:40 pm CST.
I'm going to have to start keeping an eye on this... Not that I can do anything about it. Just want to keep track of it.

Any ideas what it could be, Kyo? I've noticed this issue as well... and I'm stumped.

Yeah, I had that problem too. I couldn't access the site since Wednesday night.
There's been other times when I couldn't access the site.

Kyo, I moved this topic here because I think this section is a better place for it.
Anyway, I've had problems like this now and then, but it's been going on for a long time. I always thought it was regular downtime for maintenance or something like that. Ironically enough, when I originally went to post this message, the site was down. Seems like it's happening more frequently than it used to. I guess the only way we'll know for sure what's going on is if someone asks Purrcat about it.

There have been several unexplainable servercrashes lately, some of which I only noticed the next day or so  And then sometimes whatever it was started again, causing extra downtime.. I sometimes see strange stuff in logs, but that's pretty much business as usual on an internet server.. Heh, at this moment it looks like someone is making a complete copy of the forums. I have been planning to move edoropolis.org to a new server, but it has been a little work intensive since it has been running so long without anything other than bugfix-upgrades and just 1 major OS upgrade.. What was perfectly normal has 8 years on become a pretty weird config, so the whole change needs to be tested a bit more than usual. I have the time right now, and it's becoming a lot more urgent, so expect the move to be soon.

Heh sorry for not correcting my post; at first glance it looked like someone was making a copy of the forum, but it wasn't that after all. Not something that'd cause instability though

I almost had the thought that about over a few weeks we would see a site with the name : http://www.edoropolisII.org/forums or something like that... and when you say you're moving this site, it also means it'll get a different name, right?

No new name, no hasstles, not even downtime if I plan it correctly, just new & faster hardware which will hopefully not crash as much as this one has done lately. The current server has been running non-stop for over 5 years now, if I'm not mistaken: it's about time to upgrade and it seems I can't postpone any longer To sum it up: the move will not be noticable by end-users in any way except maybe a minor speed increase. EDIT: 8 years ain't 5 years, so to clarify: current hardware has ran for 5 years or more, but the config and files were just copied over from the server before it, which also ran for some years.

Maybe you could have one of those chat boxes on the front page too if your upgrading the site
