Status of the SD-Network, including SD-1 and SD-6.

Thursday, November 11, 2004

So I opened it to subscribers only and with only 6 people online, it ground to a halt - so there's obviously a huge problem with the database, however, no one at Invision is responding to my multiple tickets so there's really nothing I can do. I have put in hosting requests with two other companies to see what they can do for us. If anyone has a hosting company or knows of a good hosting company, please let me know. We need at least a dual processor computer with 2 gigs of RAM. Alternatively, we could also go with two computers - one for the database, one for the web page serving. I'm not sure what the pricing on something like that would be, but it also needs to be managed so we can avoid the problems we experienced a year ago (or was it 2?). My e-mail is blakek (at) gmail.com. I guess I'll leave the board open to subscribers only, but be warned, it's slow as molasses (probably slower)...

Blake,
You are so awesome. It is so kind of you to keep trooping through this, though the process is not the quickest. Thanks for EVERYTHING! Hoping to get my sd-1.net fix soon, but patiently waiting, nonetheless.

Thanks Blake, for all your hard work. I can't wait to get back on SD, I miss it so much. You deserve a medal for all you do for us. Thanks so much!

Blake,

Thanks for all your hard work! Just thought you'd like to know that despite my being a subscriber, it won't let me log on. I'm sure it's just down altogether, but in case it matters...

Hope it all works out soon! The shakes from the withdrawal are getting nasty!

I'm sorry it's such a pain.

Blake,

I thought I would give it a try and was able to view and post on a top at 10pm CST.

Hej, Blake. Thanks for opening board up to subscribers. I was able to 'surf' pretty easily for about two hours. (9p-11p est) Question though...the posts that are there now, is that all that was saved/backed up? I mean, if it's missing now, it's not gonna show up when all the problems get worked out, huh?

Well, thanks for all you've done.
