May 4 NamePros Server Change

[RJ]

NamePros was moved to a new server this morning.

The old machine had been experiencing some hard drive issues and we were overdue for an upgrade.

Some good news, the new setup lets us avoid the early morning downtime for server backups.

Report any errors here in this thread.

Ok, first issue. Search index is incomplete. We may need to rebuild it.

When I go to see the auction in my sig I get this at the top of the page

Warning: strtotime() expects at least 1 parameter, 0 given in [path]/includes/functions_appraisal.php on line 39

Warning: number_format() expects parameter 1 to be double, object given in [path]/includes/functions_appraisal.php on line 79

but everything is slow slow slow...takes a long time to navigate and for pages to open.
This is on two computers in different locations...slow

I agree super slow here and so many times

I've fixed the auction error, but I'm not sure on why the forum is being slow.

 

[Michelle]

Eric really bad here getting the busy message sooo much Taking ages to do anything

wasnt NamePros using a cdn for a while. It was alittle faster then. I see we are still at softlayerare we on a dedi or cluster or cloud hosting from them.

I'm not and never have been a fan of Softlayer, You should check in moving to Liquidwebs really if you want better performance it seems. I have read many stories after Sl took over theplanet service has been going down.

This is just a suggestion and I dont expect to get major details its to risky but performace is needed on this forum and its not going so well at the moment. Slow loading, server to busy, taking 5-10 seconds to change pages.

 

[RJ]

During the busy periods today the new server was not handling the load of NamePros very well on its own. It looks like I am going to need to add a dedicated MySQL server again. This will take another day or two to setup. I will see if there is anything we can do about the Server Too Busy errors in the meantime.

Thank you for the feedback and suggestions.

i also reported this elsewhere..I see you want this kind of stuff here..OK

Again, like last week, email notifications for private messages have stopped.
My settings are set correctly.

Just want to let you know...

 

[Deathstarr]

right now, No images and most codes on the forum are not working, I cant see any images unless they are hosted off site it seems.

 

[DU]

You need to move it back? Slow is better than non-functional imho.

It took me 10 minutes to post this and the place looks weird!

 

[silentg]

Same here. Images are not loading and pages are slow to load.

 

[mitch007]

EXTREMELY slow from page to page, doing anything, worse than yesterday...
No images coming up
Cannot pm /cannot bring up past messages or respond to them

 

[HostMantis]

Slooooooow...

 

[Eric]

It appears it's an issue between DNS resolution, and possibly a problem with the CDN. DNS wise, not much that can be done other than giving your ISP time to update.

 

[ninjadomain]

Looking forward to the new NP!

Thanks for your hard work!

 

[mis_chiff]

This is worse than yesterday, to day it shows cdn.namepros.com and worse than yesterday
today has no images, no avatar's, no jpg's, no icons no tags. Profile's are missing everything needed

Hopefully this gets resolved soon cause way too much time wasted waiting for navigating around.

Eric what do you mean by the ISP needs to update? 10 mins a page so far but nothing is different
after waiting all that time and if I'm lucky enough to get to another page,
it's the same thing

 

[Hitch]

It was really slow earlier with no images loading... although it's all quick again for me now! :D

 

[HostMantis]

Much, much better!

 

[RJ]

Should be better now that the CDN is working again.

 

[mwzd]

I feel it's a lot faster now with the new server.

No lag between click and page render.

Images were missing for a bit, but glitches are to be expected, specially with something this size. Good Going RJ! :tu:
