We’re back up.

I think we may have just fixed the root cause of these session errors. Only time will tell but at the moment we’re pretty happy with how well it’s performing again.

Restart.

We’ll be currently restarting our server. BRB.

WBB downtime due to maintenance on new server.

We’re just rebooting the server as we encountered a small problem. Things should be bouncing back shortly.

More good news and more bad news

The bugs related to sessions and search have been fixed. Registrations are now open. However, memcache server just went down – this issue will be fixed as soon as possible.

Good news and bad news.

I’m pleased to announce that the current Quad core server that had recently replaced the Pentium D server is running as expected. It has taken considerable load off our other servers and everything is churning along under load – even at peak hours.

We’re however, still stuck with the same session and search duplication bug. We’re unsure the exact cause of this as it worked perfectly fine with our old server so this may have something to do with the new binary compilation. And it has a little bit to do with a design fault made by phpBB devs. There are a few ways to fix this, but since redesigning the part which generates the random variable hasn’t worked. I suspect it could be due to either the new server or simply too many people logging on now that we have increased capacity.

Whatever it is, we will fix these before we activating registrations again.

Update #3

Things are up and running. There are still a few things we need to configure to get things running properly. Please report all bugs to the Forum Comments section.

Update #2

Most things are ready, we’re just in the process of transferring files over to our new server.

Update #1

So we have set up our server at the datacenter that is meant to remove 500 errors from our site. This migration has started. We will first be moving all servers to a new local network before the migration begins.

Once things are fully set up, we will move back to the new local network. This will take a few hours.

Search update.

The search has now been fixed up. It will now update every two hours until the new server is plugged. But for now, all search functionality will work as expected.

Nearly there.

We’ve just finished configuring our new Quad core server with software that we need to run WBB on. It won’t be long before that server’s plugged in and working folks.
