Server Issues - January 28th
Sunday, January 28, 2007 by Zoomba | Discussion: WinCustomize Site Issues
As you've no doubt noticed today, we've been experiencing some severe server problems in the past 24 hours. Very early this morning (3-4am-ish EST) we began to see very high CPU load and crashing problems on the servers connected to WinCustomize.
Around noon EST, we brought the servers back to life and most functionality on the site is back. We are still looking into what caused these issues, and what is causing the ongoing performance problems. We are fully aware of the problems the past 24 hours. Frogboy himself was up into the wee hours of the morning trying to nurse the servers back to health.
Expect performance improvements in the next few days as our net devs take a crack at things.
I apologize for the inconvenience, and just wanted to warn everyone that as we work on fixing things, the site may behave slower than usual or be unavailable at periods. We are working to track this down as fast as we can.
-Mike
UPDATE: New code was pushed to the servers this afternoon and things look to have evened out. Here's hoping all remains well.

I know first hand that servers sometimes are a problem, but I seem to be able to get anywhere I want for now. Thank you for working so hard on a Sunday.

Probably was me....pushed that wrong button again...so I snuck off to the Bike racing for a few days till it all blew over....
"Depress button A"
"Hmm..'press' means push...so 'depress' must mean 'pull'....."
A dopey plumber I once met....

Sounds like MY kind of logic!
"Geometry is hard.
Rocks are hard.
Geometry and Rocks are hard."

I take the opportunity of having the line to tell you its 6:30 GMT Monday morning and problems are still there .
Like yesterday, the only thing (except this forum that I could reach) that I can see is the home page and "Wincustomize error" when I try to go anywhere else.
Just to let you know.
thanks for efforts to fix them !

10:52 Pacific & I still can't access the galleries, just wondering if there's a trick to it, or just more patience needed....Good luck.
