View Full Version : GF New Server Move 90% complete

The forum was moved to the new server and I am still not done configuring everything. Due to all the down time in the older datacenter I was forced to rush the move and we are on our new server.

It may appear a little slow at first and most people will get errors or get bounced back to the older server due to DNS cache. TO clear this please flush your DNS Cache and it should be fine.

Since it's late and I have to wake up early, I cannot continue further configurations. If you get errors here please do let me know, I am still working on the server, it isn't completed.

About 5-6 posts from the old server were not migrated here, I closed the forum a little too late and some people already posted, I apologize for that, it's not a glitch, it just wasn't moved over and I cannot move individual posts from one server to another without messing up the entire database OR unless I import the entire database all over again and that could be a while.

If you have any questions or if you face any problems, this is the thread to post in.

Also note: GF Emails are down, including admin @ gamers-forum.com - they will be back up tomorrow.

yea it should be, I have full control over the server now so the database errors should be non-existent from now on. still not done configuring though, lots of stuff to look at :)

there hasn't been any DB errors since we moved here but there has been some CPU lag.

The current server should get a new CPU within the next day, expected downtime for the upgrade is 10-20 minutes. Just a notification before anyone gets surprised.
