Outage - Friday 26th February

On Friday 26th February I will attempt a move to the new server I have had under test.

The actual move process is quite quick, I have to synchronise the database between the two servers which will take less that 30 minutes.

However, as it is an actual move of server then the Internet DNS records have to be updated (this should also fix the broken emailing issue). The Internet DNS update is reliant on the change filtering through the internet, this can take up to 24hrs. This is out of my control and is a standard internet issue.

Most DNS records will update within an hour. But a few providers will not update as quick. Therefore you will be left looking at the old site if your DNS has not updated.

If this affects you then you can directly access the new site using test.bigjimny.com

The changes are all "under the hood". It is a complete new build of Linux and the website core. The build is clean and things such as the £ symbol work

Is anyone here yet?

did you use " www.bigjimny.com " as the address?

£ £

I have looks fine ££££££££

Im here (wavey thingy)

At least I think I am :huh:
or am I in the old place
dunno :blush:
Logged in ok though :woohoo:

Any effects for tapatalk users?

Tapatalk uses DNS to resolve the www.bigjimny.com name. Therefore was affected by the change up until the time where the DNS change occurred. As that now seems to be moving OK around the internet Tapatalk is working.
