About the downtimes |
Quote |
We have some downtimes pretty often now, so I thought I'd tell you a bit.
If you get an error while trying to access lah, please don't panic. Lately, our DB server has been overloaded, and towards the US peak time, errors like these will appear. We are trying to solve this, but I guess you might have to bear this for a while.
Also, please do not come here to ask why these errors appear on Renchan.
We both are on the same server, so if lah has errors, renchan will have, too.
Please bear with these errors a while more, I will make you know when we get an update.
Sincerely,
Sat

Ah, right, thanks for the update.
I was sort of hoping it was down while you and kouhei were doing this big project you were working on.

It's always a good idea to have another forum to fall back on!
Short downtimes I can deal with, but long ones are very irritating . . . kinda figured that was the cause. Thnx for teh input.

I hate to tell everyone this but there may be some upheaval in the next couple of weeks as I plan to move to a new datacenter. The support turnaround with the current datacenter has really just got silly (upto two days for a reply sometimes - it really gets frustrating waiting ~ which is all you really can do)
The downtime this time around was not releated the the recent problems with MySQL but was the main harddisc of the server failing. Luckly all accounts are backed up to a seperate harddisc that is only mounted when backups are being made.
The positive side is that the new server has slightly better specs (cant personally afford anything grander on my meagre income) and the load across the servers should be decreased. I have plans for Renchan as well, it's either going to be reworked (version 4) or die a horrible death. Either way it should take the load off the server.
I've been asked by LAH members in the past if their is anyway to help contribute towards the costs. There is, although I'm afraid (much to the dismay of many) it's not done PayPal. You can find the donation tracker here.

No worries, just happy to see it back up. Hopefully you can smuggle some more bandwidth somehow <.<

All websites that I've seen go through some downtime at one point or another so I just figured thats what was going on.
It's good to see thing back up and running.

deviler: No worries, just happy to see it back up. Hopefully you can smuggle some more bandwidth somehow <.< Bandwidth? This has nothing at all to do with bandwidth.
Kamiki Takeshi Jurai: So what was happening earlier then? I this related to what Konoko mentioned? Depends what you mean by "happening eairler". If you mean the maintence downtime and/or the un-announced downtime - yes.
For anyone who wants more detail I've made a post on Renchan regarding this:
