JorgeA Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 That's strange because I get all notifications. Does notifications works now? No, nothing yet.
JorgeA Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 I got an e-mail notification of your post above. Thanks a bunch! --JorgeA
MagicAndre1981 Posted September 28, 2014 Author Posted September 28, 2014 why was msfn down earlier this day?
xper Posted September 28, 2014 Posted September 28, 2014 Issue with databases while performing server backup. Working on a solution just now. 1
MagicAndre1981 Posted November 11, 2014 Author Posted November 11, 2014 today msfn is extremely slow for me. What is th cause?
JorgeA Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Yeah, something strange was going on. Last night I submitted a PM and the next screen gave some kind of SQL error (not one that I had seen before). Fortunately, the PM did get through, but for a moment there I thought that I'd lost what I had written. Guess I'll have to go back to pressing Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C every time before posting, to make sure that I can reconstruct the post if it gets lost. --JorgeA
dencorso Posted November 28, 2014 Posted November 28, 2014 Nothing, AFAIK. I was able to access MSFN every time I tried, yesterday.If you had any trouble connecting, it probably was something along the way.
JorgeA Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 MSFN was down yesterday (Jan. 12) for a while. Tried to get in several times over about a 7-hour period, with no success. Any particular reason? I wasn't getting any informational result (like "SQL error" or something), as we sometimes get, but only a browser notice that it couldn't connect to the webpage. Tried it on a couple different computers, without success. Same router, but then I had no trouble getting to other websites via that router. --JorgeA
bphlpt Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 MSFN has had a heck of a time the last 17 months. I think MSFN has been down at least 15 times during that period. That's an average of almost once a month. Some were hardware related, some were board software updates, and at least one was a DDoS attack. It's strange that all that has happened to MSFN while I'm not aware that either RyanVM or WinCert has been down for any appreciable time during that same period. I think they have been down occasionally, I know WinCert did at least one or two board software updates during that time and they use the same software that MSFN does, but it was brief enough it didn't cause any real impact, while MSFN has been down for over a day at a time in more than one of those instances and the rest of the outages were usually for several hours. I wonder why?Cheers and Regards
xper Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Yes, I know. We figured out whats causing it. Server primary HDD is in pretty bad condition. Bad sectors, etc. I will need to take server down, swap primary HDD and do OS reload. I will do that today or tomorrow.It's 5 o'clock CET in the morning here. 1
bphlpt Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Thanks for your hard work for our benefit. Cheers and Regards
JorgeA Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 +1 xper, we greatly appreciate all that you do for MSFN. Just the fact that I can still log on in IE8 and have everything work, is amazing. --JorgeA 1
