Forum move to new server

SSH · Mon 27/11/2006 12:07:14

Or just click the "home" at the top of the forums after loading your forum bookmark.

Hmm... weird...

Yeah, I am logged in at the address AGA gave me, but if I close the browser and re-open it, at the main forum page it says, "Welcome, Guest...".

If I click on a thread, then I'm magically logged in again.

*shrugs*

EDIT:
Ha ha... sorry. It was my bookmark. It was still for the OLD forum address. I deleted it, and bookmarked the new address.

So, here we are again.

You may have noticed that the forum URL has changed yet again. The reason is that having two different servers (www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk and www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk) is getting on my nerves, so I'm planning to consolidate it all back into one server.

However, before I can do that, I need to be sure that the new server can handle the load. That's why I've moved the forums over to the new server. If it all seems to work ok, then I'll move the entire website here and sort the URL's out so that we just have one website again.

So, let me know if you get any problems.

I do get this error now and then:

Hmm yeah I got that a couple of times too.

I've now tweaked a couple of settings, let me know if it happens again.

It's just extremely slow over here (which is the same country as you CJ!

). I mean literally 30 secs to get to the new server and another 45 secs to get to THIS thread!

Questionable · Fri 02/05/2008 23:04:59

Sometimes I get this:

PHP Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in C:\Web\yabb\Sources\Subs.php on line 321

...Never got that before. When i'm not getting that, things run slightly slower than before, but it's hardly a bother.

Hmm interesting. I had a couple of page loads like that, but most were ok.

Anyway, I've tweaked a few more settings, so if anyone sees any more timeouts or really slow page loads now, please let me know.

LGM · Sat 03/05/2008 07:50:53

I'm just getting slow loads over here.

Rui 'Trovatore' Pires · Sat 03/05/2008 09:47:42

Can it be I'm the only one who doesn't experience any slowdowns whatsoever, minor or otherwise?

I'm having the same problems here, sometimes it gets really slow to load pages (1minute).
In general all is slower than usual.

Questionable · Sat 03/05/2008 11:16:56

Much slower for me, now. Maybe yeterday was just a good day...

Pumaman · Sat 03/05/2008 11:22:26

I think the problem is related to the search function, whereby if somebody does a search the forum grinds to a halt for everyone else. I'm currently running some database optimisations to hopefully improve this, but it does mean I'd expect the forum to run a bit slowly for the next hour or so.

monkey0506 · Sat 03/05/2008 11:27:50

I'm probably of no use saying this, but I am apparently encountering no "forum-specific" slow-downs. Though our Internet service has been running very slow for almost a week now, so my results are unreliable anyway.

Does "My Games" got messed up now like in 2006?
I can see everybody's games on their profile but I can't see mine.

Edit: as to speed issues everything is normal to me now

Stupot · Sat 03/05/2008 12:44:43

Everythin seem to be running fine for me so far... that threw me for about half a second, though... I want that half a second of my life back

it seems if you added a game after a certain date it doesn't show anymore $:-\$

Hmmm, ok then, I'll just add it again. thanks

Edit: Editing my profile didn't help and the game IS registered on the Games Page. Any hint?
