Planned maintenance/Server swap - starting now Wed. 25/2 15:00 GMT+1

Tomtefan · 25th February 2009, 15:04

Greetings everyone - we have been listening to your feedback regarding the forum performance and overall site performance. As a solution to this we have been preparing for a server swap since the last week or so and today we're going live with this. This server will be a dramatic improvement to the current state of things and we believe that you'll enjoy our site even more once it's finished.

Due to how databases work there will be a slight rollback of the forum depending on when the database export is performed - there might be some turbulence with site connectivity during this entire procedure and we hope that you'll be able to forgive us for this before the DNS propagates to the new server.

As a solution to this if you aren't able to stand the pressure of not being able to reach the mortalonline site then you can type in a command prompt: ipconfig /flushdns - this command will flush your cache and allow the new IP to be stored in your cache instead.

Tzacharu · 25th February 2009, 16:44

Sounds good

SkirmCard · 25th February 2009, 16:45

Alright, hopefully this coincides with a possible update to the main page?

Zethus · 25th February 2009, 17:14

Maybe a race, or two?

Tomtefan · 25th February 2009, 17:37

Sorry for the delay in providing info, the actual server swap has been delayed until our current service provider goes through with our request.

Tomtefan · 26th February 2009, 11:11

And it's done - welcome to your new home!

Regicide · 11th June 2009, 02:32

Hmmm, i still dont think the site will be able to handle the pressure once the store opens but hopefully itll be able to recover sooner.

Boy LoD · 11th June 2009, 14:07
