Server Problem

[KeithD]

Due to problems with the database yesterday, I have had to move the forum to a new server. At the moment the search does not work. I will attempt to fix that later today.

Thank you for keeping us informed Keith.

I only moved servers a few months ago. The problem is, even if you buy a VPS from the same company that you already have one with, it does not mean it will behave the same way. I think I got a not so good one, which can happen. I do have another 3 servers, and moved this site to one of them. Seems to be running OK, and no errors in the database.

The search is currently rebuilding, but will likely take a few hours.

Well done! There seemed to be a few glitches showing up plus lots of "server busy" messages.

Sorry Fred, that may be down to me hogging the forum with all my replies :biggrin:

Probably busy because I was rebuilding the search index, which had to process 1 mill+ posts. Everything should be OK now. If not, let me know. I still need to run a few checks my end.
