[OT] Did the site go down for anybody else?

[blackshirt5]

Did it not let you access the site just now for like 10, 15 minutes? I couldn't get back on.

I couldn't get in at all all day yesterday.

Nor could I, and most of today as well. Two of my friends in the Netherlands complained about it as well.

Shouldn't this be in Meta though?

THE POWER OF TOAST COMPELLS YOU!

what the hell was up with yesterday anyway? some huge update or something?

 

[Piratecat]

Ahem. Someone with 929 posts should know where the Meta forum is. Hint hint.

I'll slide this over.

If you want to know (or discuss) stuff about the boards, you should go to the forum that is about the boards -- i.e. Meta. All questions answered!

So what was it, a server hickup? I hope nothing serious, I am visiting Morrus this weekend and I don't want him stressed

I'll bring beer.

edit: never mind, I read the "testing..." thread now.

My Bad.

I'm kinda computer-illiterate. So when I was told to put the new website for E.N.Publishing on the server, I actually went physically to the server system and stuck a floppy disk in and copied the files over (thankfully the os had something approximately like windows, and from there I found a DOS shell and used that to copy the files from A:\*.* to C:\USR\BIN\DAT\MORRUS\HTTP\ENPUBLISHING\*.* which worked all good-like).

But when I left, I hit the power switch instead of the lights, but that wasn't too bad, because the servers all automatically rebooted when I turned the switch back on.



But you see, I left the floppy disk in the server, so it tried to boot from the floppy.

So ALL day yesterday and all night the server was sitting there saying "INVALID SYSTEM DISK" instead of booting.

Sorry!

Well
