WinCust on a new server

Wednesday, October 8, 2003 by T-Man | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

WinCustomize has moved.  WinCustomize has just traveled accross the country from Georgia to California (has nothing to do with the new Governor of CA).

I expect there will be some glitches over the next couple of days so if you notice anything that is not working as expected please let me know.

And to just confuse the matter more, I have swtiched the time back to Easter Time instead of Pacific time (don't ask).  This will probably mess up the time stamps of the threads for a bit.

WOM - both SDC and WC Browser messageboards are wacked...IE seems to be right (time wise), but doesn't seem to update either...

Pat was 10% grey before this....he's probably about 60% grey now...

Please just give it a day or two to be sorted out. There is a massive amount of database loose ends to tie up before it is all set.  We did have the Atlanta server replicating to Cali server, which somehow created the time issue.  Now that all servers are in Cali, the replication times aren't conflicting.  (That may not have made any sense, but today has been a long customer support day....and I'm probably only making sense to myself now....)

Anyway, the fine Website/database crew of Stardock are working as hard as they can to get everything back to normal, and I am sure that they will have 95% of everything fixed before the weekend.  Our goal is to have everything back 100% by the 18th.  (Boy, this stuff sure has gotten big and complicated over the years )

Yeah...I think T-Man is probably home, laying on his couch with a cold can of beer pressed to his forehead trying to fight off those server demons....and muttering something about not going back to office tomorrow........

KG-

yrag thinks if T-Man escapes, KarmaGirl should have Jafo send some of that 'good' stuff to her office tomorrow...

If T-man escapes, I'm taking an "extended" holiday.  EEK!  I don't even want to think about that.....  The worse part is- we don't have enough DNA to clone him yet.....

Why don't you bribe him with some of that $7,853 dollar-a-cup coffee you like so much?

#20 by JourneyMan WOM - 10/8/2003 9:20:21 PM Unless its just me, The MGSBD doesn't seem to update automaticly. I have to do it manually by resetting the list.


FWIW I'm seeing this also.

Additionally, the most recent 10 or threads are showing '-2h00m' or '-1h00m' so I'm reading future threads ?

Ok, I have fixed up some the time stamps for the message boards. I will have to wait and see if the update properly. 

I am also seeing the library updates not working properly for the skin browser.  I have corrected some of the issues on the server but they might go deeper.  I'll have to dig deeper into this problem.

Off to bed.

Yep. Errors everywhere.404s. I'm guessing that if you're switching servers, they would be hard to find right now.
Should be fine when all is done. I'm not worried. Yet .

I would just like to echo some of the other comments and say a big thank you to all the staff who must have worked so hard on this transition.

P.S I hope Brad's paying you for the overtime and KG - has he given you an additional coffee allowance as well???
