Site outage - October 8 2009
Posted: Thu Oct 08, 2009 5:37 pm
Sorry guys, I don't know what's going on. All I know is that a number of services on the host are failing every few minutes, and I can't get in there to find out why. I've logged a critical support ticket with the provider and I'm hoping they'll attend to it as a "Critical" issue rather than taking a look at it when they get around to it.
I'm slightly worried that they may have decided to move Paradox to a different server without telling me (even though I asked them to let me know in advance, it wouldn't surprise me if they've just decided to go ahead), in which case there MAY be some data loss. How much loss? Impossible to say until the site's back up. If they were smart, they killed the old server, then moved all the data, and will then restart the new server... If they're smart.
Sigh.
