    Aaaargh! Server Change again. (MUST READ)

    Ok boys, I was under the impression that this wasn't going to have to happen. But because of the purchase of allin1 by Real Web, they are going to change us over to a new server. I swear I read that this wasn't going to be needed but an email from this moring says it will need to be done by next weekend.

    This of course means....website downtime. YAY!!! Actually you will always get the website to pop up, but wether it is the old or new server is the question. I guess i will set things in motion monday (tomorrow) afternoon. I have to be home to do it because I have to go to the godaddy site to change the name-server settings there.

    This way, the league files will be available from both the old server and new server for the day or two it takes for the nameserver to propagate.

    I will have to disable the file upload though, so no one uploads to the old server. I will work out a way for Suicane to be able re-activate the upload page when he is getting the new server.

    Sorry for this shit again guys.

      I don't know what the bloody hell is going on to tell you the truth. I'm assuming you probably haven't filled out any forms with Real Web yet?

          yeah I have. They have all the info from me they have asked for so far. The only thing I never did was the credit card thing, but I asked and that wasn't needed since I pay with PayPal.

          here is the email...



          We will be taking this server offline on Feb 12, 2006 at time all
          accounts will have be moved from this server.

          We are requesting that each client start changing their nameservers on
          their domain name at the domain registrar.

          Please change your name servers to one of the following sets of name
          servers and let us know when this has been done.

          ...................name server stuff I took out..............

          When done send a email, in the body of that
          email please place your domain or domain names and which name servers
          you changed your domain to. At that time we will move your accounts to
          the new servers.
          Please remember change any parked or add on domains also.

            You thinking we could set up a few things there?

              I sure do, I can also create like 4 or 5 more screenames each with 25MB of storage space.

              Edit: Wait, are you being serious or making more jokes at my expense?

                I think it'd probably be best to send out a leaguewide e-mail, upload the the most current files to Suicane's site (as well as this site), and have exports sent to someone via e-mail for this week.

                Once you tell Joey about changing nameservers, I'm assuming it won't take long for him to take action on that. I'm just not sure what is going to happen to the exports that guys are going to be sending in during the propogation.

                  Well this was my plan....

                  disable the file upload tomorrow. then give Suicane all the info he would need to be able to tell when he is getting the new server. he could then 'turn-on' the file upload page once he is on the new server, and he could put some kind of message on the front page saying "this is the new server"

                  And on the side, if guys need to do their export monday night or tuesday and can't wait, they can email.

                  but maybe just have all emailed to me would be best. now that I lay out my plan just disabling the upload page and having them emailed this week sounds easier.

                    Sounds like a plan. You have no idea how long it's been since I turned something on.
