eXceem - Downtime

wheretoturn · 03-07-08, 09:28 PM

There will be some downtime within the next hour which will last for a maximum of 24 hours.

Sorry for the inconvenience,

Ash

Woohoo!! New sites???

Your sig image is obviously on the server, so wherever you post an undergoing maintenance message and log-in dialogue box pops up.

Looking forward to seeing the new site, though I assume the delay will roll over onto support tickets and gift fulfillment?

Good luck .. hope it runs smoothly.

Didnt understand what you meant in that first sentence. We are moving servers, and undergoing different changes, so we have removed access to the sites for this change, as databases need to be moved over, which would be very difficult if people continued to sign up....

support and gift fulfillment will be started when the switchover is finished.

Echo what vix said, Ash. You need to go to your signature and remove all the http://www.real-incentives.com/... images, as they're causing the password prompt to come up in every thread you've posted in.

how long is it expected to ash ? is it worth swapping links ?

wheretoturn · 04-07-08, 08:36 AM

Apologies guys, images removed

Ash

djerwood · 04-07-08, 08:51 AM

Something is still causing the popup ???

wheretoturn · 04-07-08, 09:12 AM

Hm, nothing linking to any RI sites in my sig anymore...

Just to let you all know, the Nameservers are still updating to the new server, which may mean a bit more of a wait... I've checked myself via alternatives IP addresses and some work and some don't so still a few ISPs need to update.

Ash

djerwood · 04-07-08, 09:19 AM

Well, I get a message saying "Authentication Required" A user name and password are being requested by http://www.real-incentives.com. The site says: undergoing maintanance, We will be back shortly"

Haha it's my post that's doing it now. I'll ask a mod to edit it.

Jon · 04-07-08, 05:17 PM

usefull tip if moving servers - change the nameservers TTL to a low figure 48 hours before the server move!

chigley · 04-07-08, 05:18 PM

Thanks for sorting my post Jon

What's TTL?

Jon · 04-07-08, 05:48 PM

Time To Live

Its a DNS value, that tells DNS servers how long to store the information about that DNS zone before checking the information again.

High values reduce load on the DNS servers

Low values increast the load

However a smaller TTL means any changes you make to DNS will propagate across the internet alot more quickly.
