wtf is happening?
« on: April 19, 2005, 07:54:14 AM »
Could anyone that knows the current state of affairs with the site please post some sort of explanation here. Or relate their personal experience with current problems (or not).

Since Mike first mentioned time-outs a few days ago I've been noticing them with increasing frequency/duration. I haven't been able to access the site using the normal url since sometime yesterday, other than today through a link major_small posted in cprog gd. Judging from the comments there this seems to be a fairly common problem.

So, if anyone has any news whatsoever please keep us posted even though most us will probably be unable to read it. :rolleyes:

Thanks.

Both at home and at work, the DNS fails to resolve "http://www.entropysink.com".  However, http://orbit.dnsprotect.com/~entropy/forums/ works fine for some reason.

I'm really sorry guys... I don't know what is going on.  The host is not getting back to me unfortunately, but I'm going to assume that means he's working on it.

I work too much for not enough money, and I think I'm going to be losing my overtime really soon.

DNS still down in my area, but the dnsprotect path works so I don't know...it's been over 24 hours since I've been able to get to it so either it's not fixed, or DNS around here updates quarterly...

haha. Well said.

In case anyone hasn't seen it at jboard, here's Ober's explanation:
Quote from: "Ober"
Apparently I fucked up. Turns out we never changed servers and we're still on the shitty one. The host is in the process of moving us and I apparently jumped the gun and changed the nameservers when I thought we were already moved.

Irregardless, if I hadn't changed the nameservers, we'd still be down because I still can't get to ES through FTP using the IP. So unless it is going to be more than another day or so, I'm just going to leave the DNS alone so that it points to the new server when we get there.

Hopefully our uptime will go back to normal and you won't see the timeouts and DB errors when we get moved.

Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
