|
UPDATE: 6/26/08
Although we lost most of our data, Sunrider has survived the move and is starting with a fresh, new board. Check out the board header for some familiar faces.
And the web site has been re-vamped as well.
********************************************************************
I'm moving the Project Board and web site to a new host, so if you can't get in for the next couple of days please don't panic.
I'm hoping everything will be up and running tonight, but I'm giving myself tomorrow as well in case something goes wrong.
If you have any questions/concerns, just PM or e-mail me.  _________________

Okay, the Project Board might still be down as of Tuesday.
I have entered the information for the new host, but the processing can take 24-48 hours to get updated.
I'm also upgrading to the new version of our board software so there are some installation things I have to take care of. Don't panic if you go to the Project Board and our usual background isn't showing; it will be the default board background until I can get Star Jedi set up.
Thanks for your patience and understanding. _________________

The Good News: I have the new version of the message board running.
The Bad News: I can't get our backup database to load and it's missing some of the tables.
Best Case Scenario: I get the backup to load some way, some how.
Worst Case Scenario: We start from scratch.
You are welcome to "fire" me as the webmaster because I've been sweating this problem for the last 3 days and it's cost me over $100 out of my own pocket. As Han Solo said: "I'm beginning to think this was a bad idea."

Donna - I totally sympathise with you.
Phpbb is a nightmare at the best of times. I had this issue recently and in the end I decided to leave our boards with our current host rather than panic. It still needs upgrading to the newest release phpbb though to try and kill off those nasty spammers
Im more of a Webbreaker than a Webmaster

Well maybe when this is over everyone can pitch in with a few bucks and get you your money back. It's not really fair for you to pay for it when we all use it. |

Donna - My collection records for the HS Trading Card indicate you were down for a $10 share. Consider it paid-in-full, you'll get your cards at no extra exspense.  _________________ Jon Paulson • Cmdr. Tag "HazardThree" Greenly

No worries; I'm just griping in general. I've paid for the web hosting for the last couple of years; this year just cost a little more.
We do have the new boards up and I'm working on a really cool template that I think you guys will love. It's the thought of losing 4 years of discussions that bothers me.
I mean, I know I wanted to clean up the boards, but not THIS clean!  _________________

Revamped board is up and running. Go here: http://www.sunriderbase.com/board/
You'll have to re-register if you haven't already (Jon's already setting up "house" ). _________________

Well, it only took 7 days to get everything reconstructed.
Next time I talk about moving a web site, somebody please hit me over the head with a heavy object.  _________________
