Title: FYI: Server Move
Post by: Oldiesmann on March 26, 2022, 02:13:45 PM
Just a heads up to everyone, I will be moving the site to a new host/server next weekend. I found a better deal on hosting.

There shouldn't be much downtime - it could be up to a day or two for your computer to detect the new location.

Like last time I will put the site in maintenance mode before I move everything so no posts get lost in the shuffle. The actual transfer won't take long otherwise.

Had problems yesterday, couldn't get in.  All fixed now. Thank you for the work you do for us.

All day yesterday, my Tablet said "this site not protected; scammers and hackers can access..." and wouldn't let me in.  My PC simply said "site not available".

Was able to get in on both today. Thanks.

Callie, several posters including Bubble received that message or something similar.

Michael - I was unable to access the site most of the day yesterday.  This morning everything was fine, but this afternoon I started getting the same message box as yesterday, and was out again for a couple of hours.  Now back again at 9:00 PM.

Sorry about the problems. I have no idea what happened earlier but I was having problems as well (I was getting redirected to the webmail login page for every site on the server), but I managed to fix it so everything should be good again now. Hopefully nothing else will break.
