SAAFE message board news

(1/6) > >>

xw5:
At the moment, it looks like no-one's getting email notifications. They will be back at some point, just not necessarily quickly.

This means that the mod service may be a bit slower than usual, sorry.

We're in the middle of moving SAAFE from one server to another.

I hope that it all goes without a hitch, but things may not work properly in the meantime.

We know :)

xw5:
For a variety of reasons, we have moved the forum to a new server. This has not been as easy as the authors of the software claim it should be - I can give some of the techy details if you like, but it's been :FF time.

Fortunately, this was not a surprise, so the 'old' board was kept going on the old server. When it needed to be frozen, so that no new posts would be made there, it was put into maintenance mode 

Once it was clear that the move was more or less successful on the second attempt today (and the third overall) the maintenance message was switched to say 'go to https://saafe.info/main' (note the https rather than http and no .www) i.e. here and the new one went live.

Once it was clear that it was working almost entirely to plan, the URL of the old server - www.saafe.info - was pointed at the new one and this will doubtless propagate around the Internet as such things do. A redirect is in place when they get here in case anyone uses the www.

I've merged this with the news thread so hopefully more people will spot it. It can come down once we're all sorted :).

Where Ian says 'we', I should point out that the full extent of my participation was sitting on my arse eating bombay mix watching tthe Sopranos and occasionally clicking on a link when asked ;D

Plus demanding various things that meant it had to be moved in the first place! ;D
