Runtime Error

Quote by GraceW

Might I ask why you are using Windows? In forty years I have never used a GUI-based server and I've never dealt with the aggravations Microsoft clients contend with on a regular basis.

My husband runs a Windoze PC because there is software he requires which is not available on any other platform. He stopped allowing automatic updates many years ago.

My recommendation would be some form of BSD or one of the commercial Linuxes. I have personally had great success in the past with FreeBSD and Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Gav?

When we set up the site, .net was all the rage. Unfortunately ... you know the rest.

There's a nice little job for your to-do list, Gav. Just recode the site in PHP & MySQL. laughing9

Yes, I do. Fortunately, I had already developed a healthy mistrust for all things Microsoft, dating back to DOS. DRDOS was my preference.

That is how I run my websites. I have been told I should switch to a server-side version of JavaScript, but it's not happening any time soon.

I wrote my own Content Management System because it was the only way to do what we wanted. I am not very good at coding, it takes me months to do what others do in weeks, but I do get there. If I can do it Gav can. Whether he wants to or not is, of course, another matter.

Looks like we're in for a nasty spell of wether.

Buy Xenforo or similar, add some appropriate add-ons. customize to taste. No coding needed unless you need to roll your own add-ons. The main problem will be pulling the existing data over, since they won't likely have an importer built for the code base you use.

During a period of being rather cranky about the blue site, I asked and there is a Xenforo add-on that would handle the publishing piece, while XF itself would power the forums. I imagine there are ways to incorporate the Tube, Chat, etc. as well (in fact, I'm fairly sure there are chat add-ons).

For the record, I'm running XF on shared hosting. Apache web server, MySQL database. And, yes, it's mostly written using PHP.de7OHPrArUw9ZWM2

While the site being down is inconvenient for anyone trying to log in, it's not an emergency. Get some fresh air, folks. Or clean your sock drawer. ?

Everything but the forum is down for me.

28 Jun 2019

I'm getting a General Error trying to access Timeline, My Stories, Inbox, etc. It seems like this happens from time to time.

I assume I just need to wait for it to get fixed. Let me know if there's something I need to do.

It says that it sent the Lush admin an email. I hope I'm not generating too many by checking if it's working.

28 Jun 2019

I also getting general error when I try to access my mail or profile etc. Seems only forum and being able to read stories is working. Does anyone know what's causing the error? I am guessing it may be a site or server issue...

28 Jun 2019

Currently getting General Error on all but Forums, Home page (I haven't dug into other story tabs) and profiles, both mine and others. Started about 0100 BST

It's odd. Profile pages and stories on the main domain are fine, it's just any /membership pages that are affected, it seems. Not seen this one before. Hope gav has some ideas!

Main site seems to be broken again. I can get to the forums and other sites that run as their own domain or subdomain but mail, profiles, stories, etc. that run under lushstories.com/whatever are erroring out.

EDIT: Actually, they are hanging now instead of erroring out right away so maybe a reboot is happening?.

EDIT 2: Now they're giving a 503 error.

2 Jul 2019

Having problems getting to pages referenced above again, FYI. No error, just hangs.

The hamsters have escaped again.

For the past couple of hours everything on the main site is returning a time out.
Forum is working, other than the avatars, which I understand are sourced from the main site.

Other sites I use are all still working. Maybe when someone gets in they can kick the cage.

we need to send $$ to the keeper of our hamsters and not allow them to run amuck

I'm not getting an error message but just get "pc" where video clips should be playing. Using Firefox browser. Any suggestions would be welcome.

2 Jul 2019

It's so frustrating to not be able to obtain the site when needed. Sending $$$ to the keepers of the hamsters and cage them where they can't escape.

2 Jul 2019

Truth: We upgraded to squirrels from hamsters a few months back, and it really isn't working out quite as we'd planned. Tails getting tangled in the wheels and all. Plus squirrels are surprisingly agile and wow, they bite.

Your kindness in bearing with us as our crack IT team sorts out this mess is much appreciated.

What I truly appreciate is that even if the site is down, I can still get to Rumps and order a beer., which is mostly what I do here anyway. I assume it's because the forums have a different URL. Anyway it's cool! Lush being down doesn't even affect me that much.
