|
When I try to access the Wiki, I get redirected to the following URL :
http://web7.zesthost.com/suspended.page/
which says that the account has been suspended. I guess it's because there's been too much traffic recently with Aqua Beta 3.
Does anyone know when it'll be back online ? |

Yup, I just got the same message.
Do we need to make a donation to jakeOSX to cover the increase in bandwidth??
It looks like all the web sites are getting a HUGE number of hits. And the number trinity registered users increased by almost 1000 in the last 1-2 days!!!  
Philip ( can you say 12,000 users? I knew you could!  ) |

jake - let me know if you're interested in trying to get a fallback server set up at some point and perhaps we could flip the IP over when your ISP decides they no longer will show you the love and put you on timeout. It wouldn't be able to survive a /.ing either, but who knows

ok. the database was backed up. i deleted all of the files (except the uploaded images) and reinstalled mediawiki. the site is not yet live, so not sure if i'll have to do any config yet.
once it is up, i'll need some help. i am 99% sure everything is fine. the update to 1.6.8 (clean) should have fixed everything. but. please look through for any strange edits. (ie bad code type. not the bad code i wrote, but like bad-bad code)
ironically we have only used 9gb of 150 for bandwidth. so bring it on. |

The fact that it wasn't the bandwidth was a bit worrying. I'm glad to hear that the Wiki should be working again soon.
I'll have a look as soon as I can (which means not tomorrow, unfortunately). |

I checked a few pages, my watchlist, etc. and all seems OK.
However, this page is a bit wierd (regression tracking section). Not sure it's supposed to be that way. |

I probably could have simply deleted that rather than using strikethrough, but I wanted to leave it accessible in case someone wanted to go back and finish testing 
Glad the wiki's back; thanks, Jake.
