Forum Outage

[NINJA]

@Calum I'm having some issues with the forum dropping off, I keep getting the lost connection message and then the forum unavailable aka 503 excessive load message as well. I'm not sure why or if it's just me, but you may want to look into it bud???

[Calum]

Yeah the forum has had a lot of traffic as of late.

I expect it's down to running out of memory again. Unfortunately, without investing heavily into more hardware I am a little limited to what I can actually do.

@Calum OK thanks for the update. :thumbs_up_medium-light_skin_tone:

[Calum]

WOW - That was funny. Don't ask but forum is now back up lol.

[NINJA]

@Calum Sexual Gymnastics again???

[Calum]

@NINJA It was the weirdest thing

I just had this urge in the night to flick the switch

Even when i done it, I was like, ahh fook!

[NINJA]

@Calum AAAHHH the joys of the subconscious mind!!!

[Calum]

Sorry was just running through some upgrades.

[NINJA]

@Calum The forum has been buggy the last few days bud. Mainly unable to connect and pages not loading, are we low on memory again???

[Calum]

The router at home looks like it's packed up and since I no longer live there, it is a drive away to sort out. I have got a new server for it, curtesy of @Arite. But if the router at my parents is on the blink then obviously need to do something about that as well.

I am looking into it. Will just have to bear with.

Yeah it’s been out all day for me

Thanks Calum, appreciate the effort you put in

Wow, been a long time since I last backed up and updated the forum software. So I done that this morning, hence the outage.

If anything is broken, let me know. I noticed some packages are out of date, but I had to go to work so didn't get around to sorting those out!

@Calum All good so far bud. :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes: :smiling_face_with_sunglasses: :smiling_face_with_open_mouth:

@Calum feels a lot faster and smoother on my end

[NINJA]

Yeah I was gonna say that too.

[Calum]

Don't know about that lol. It will crash cause it will run out of memory.

My forum had been down for a good few days and now I’m noticing issues with my notifications I have to manually check threads to see my replies.

[Calum]

Yeah, I wasn't able to get to it until Saturday I'm afraid. Too busy with work.

@Calum ohhh I thought it was just me
