WinCustomize Site issues

Working through them

Friday, July 15, 2005 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News

For the past couple of weeks we've had a number of website issues that we've been working through.

The first issue has to do with DNS.  The Secondary DNS server for this site was no longer up due to Stardock's move (Stardock was hosting the secondary DNS server for WinCustomize.com).  This has been corrected with Network solutions but it will take some time (a few days) for this change to propagate out onto the net.  This would cause extreme slowness of loading of pages, missing images, etc.

The second issue has to do wit a database bug that we're still in the final stages of tracking down.  This would cause "server too busy" errors and just crash the website entirely. We are trying to work through that as well and hope to have it clear soon.

Hopefully by this weekend things will have cleared up considerably.

We will be turning the libraries off for about 30-60 minutes while we do some additional testing.  Look for the libraries to return shortly.  Sorry for the incovenience.

I am seeing even more than double ... they are being repeated once, twice, even thrice ...

Those bugs really make the life poor

The site is really frelled this morning. No images, basic text everywhere, and loading at about 2mph... sigh

Same here. I can get to my personal pages and the forum. I can also get to individual skins in the gallery through their picture or link on the home page. Period! Smile!

Hello everyone!

Sorry for the site issues. We're having a good old time tracking down these little bugs. Sorry about the Gallery/library errors. Some files managed to not get completely copied over or where corrupted... not sure exactly what happened. Anyway, it should be okay now. If you encounter major errors message, please keep posting on this channel. Special thanks to clwoods & Fairyy~ for pointing out such a bug error. I never would have seen it, if you hadn't posted! And thanks to everyone else for all of your patience. We really appreciate the support.
