I just had to move rawpaleoforum.com to a new server.
It was getting pretty crowded in the old shared server.
Our database is getting pretty big too.
At 700 mb, I'm not too happy with the backup arrangements at the old shared server.

This is not yet the optimal configuration of the new rawpaleoforum.com server, this is just in transition to something more optimal.
It looks like our little forum is growing, big and it will be bigger.
We are getting to be popular.
More than most people think.

Hope to finish optimizing our configuration within 1 week.

Please post any complaints, observations, bugs, irregularities here.

Hi GS, when I write the post could I check Spelling?

kurite · « **Reply #2 on:** February 25, 2011, 01:22:33 pm »

Yah the only prob I see is missing spell check.

I have the spell check with Firefox.

I can't upload an avatar, so maybe it is because of this new server.

Yesterday and earlier this morning, I was unable to access rawpaleoforum - either it didn't work at all, or it was so slow moving to the next thread, that it was ridiculous. Things are better now, though.

I just complained to the data center about the "cannot allocate memory" problem of this hosting service.
They said they fixed it just now.

I'll attend to the cannot upload avatar problem.

goodsamaritan · « **Reply #8 on:** March 03, 2011, 11:01:00 pm »

Please try uploading avatars now.
Should be fixed.

caban · « **Reply #9 on:** March 04, 2011, 12:16:10 am »

Yep, it is fixed, thank you.

Browser picture is GS' avatar =D Not an urgent issue.

Just checking the favicon.ico thing. There is an error message in the logs without a favicon.ico

How about nominating a favicon of your choosing?

I made adjustments to the mysql database server.
Hope it writes much faster.

I don't think it does.
Well, maybe it will.
Let's see those comments.

The server seems slower after the change, rather than faster.

goodsamaritan · « **Reply #14 on:** March 05, 2011, 11:17:01 am »

there is a network issue for the moment.

PaleoPhil · « **Reply #15 on:** March 06, 2011, 08:01:33 am »

Difficulty connecting and slow loading again today.

goodsamaritan · « **Reply #16 on:** March 06, 2011, 08:39:18 am »

Yeah, I blasted the data center for slowness this morning.
Seems they've corrected it.
But I have another VPS standing by from another data center if this happens again.

goodsamaritan · « **Reply #17 on:** March 06, 2011, 10:38:52 am »

Just moved rawpaleoforum.com AGAIN March 06, 2011.
New VPS again.
Let's see if this VPS delivers.

goodsamaritan · « **Reply #18 on:** March 06, 2011, 11:19:03 am »

Test post, added some my.cnf configuration stuff in it.
writing is still a little slow... sometimes.

goodsamaritan · « **Reply #19 on:** March 07, 2011, 02:12:55 pm »

Changed favicon.ico to lady Gaga's meat dress.
She seems to be popular in some countries.

goodsamaritan · « **Reply #20 on:** March 11, 2011, 06:45:22 am »

Annoying VPS down time!

I think the main server crashed so the VPS came down with it. It's fixed now.

Thank god! I was worried that there might be some permanent problems, when I tried to access rawpaleoforum this evening.

I've got daily backups.

wodgina · « **Reply #23 on:** March 11, 2011, 08:52:35 am »

Theres no spellcheck?

goodsamaritan · « **Reply #24 on:** March 11, 2011, 09:44:19 am »

I activated the spelling on the server. Please check if it works.
