Downtime this weekend & Solution
« on: October 24, 2011, 10:50:43 am »
My apologies for the downtime this weekend - had a chain of issues, and I went away for a few days.

To remedy this, I have written a script to automatically reboot the server every 12 hours, which should mean that if there ever is a deadlock while I am away/asleep, there is a good chance it will resolve itself automatically. Unfortunately the software we are using is very buggy, and until these issues are resolved, this band-aid fix will have to do.

Once again, sorry - I know and understand how frustrating it is when your server goes down and you cannot play. I will continue to try to improve the service for all.

Cheers.

Remember guys, this is only a test server, so it probably will be laggy for a while. I have no idea what Classic was like when it was this new, but I doubt it was as lag free as today. ;)

Thanks Optical! :)

The server restarts are doing wonders for the server, thanks

Couldn't you just have another file running, and when the server goes offline, have that file restart the server?

This is already in place. Doesn't help with deadlocks or out of memory exceptions. Also, "File" - I thought you were a programmer? ;)

It's a kind of internet/sms language. Eg We had better reach school b4 the bell rings.
