New ISP

Recommended Posts

Dear All

 

Due to the continued growth and the popularity of this forum we need to move to another ISP.

 

Over the next two days the site maybe unavailable for a short period of time while the transfer takes place.

 

The ISP we are moving to provides professional hosting services and we hope the extra capacity and improved resilience will ensure the forum remains up and available for use 100% of the time.

 

We will not be making any changes to the forum software so it should be a seamless process with only a minor outage while the DNS servers on the Internet update the new ISP details.

 

Kind regards

The move is now complete and most members should be able to access the forum.

 

Kind regards

Dear All

 

Unfortunately due to a quirk with the forum configuration we have been using two seperate ISPs (Internet Service Providers). The forum pages have been running from our new ISP and the Database Server has been residing at our old ISP.

 

Today our old ISP suffered a major power failure which took out most of their servers hence the forum outage today.

 

We have now also migrated the database over onto our new ISP which should further improve the reliability of the forum.

 

The power outage this morning was a timely reminder of why we moved the forum in the first place.

 

Kind regards

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! Wondered why i'd travelled back in time to August 15th!

Was rather hoping I'd discovered a worm-hole in the space/time continuum... Was gonna whip back to the mid-eighties and do all the things I missed out on! :lol::lol::lol:
