Problem accessing the site

**jmurphyc** · 31/10/2007, 3:52 PM

I was just wondering whether there were problems with the site today as I tried plenty of times but I couldn't access it. I was posting from a college network so maybe there was just a problem with that. Thanks...

PS. Not sure if this is in the right forum. If not feel free to move it.

I think it was gone for everyone.

It made baby Jesus cry.

I almost fell asleep in work multiple times this afternoon because I didn't have foot to keep me awake.

I'm going home now.

Had same problem since lunchtime today.....very inconvenient....had to do some work instead

Foot.ie'll be a bit hit and miss for the rest of the week, I have to migrate it to a new server as this one is slowly but surely dying on me. the outage this afternoon was my fault though, brought the new server up on the Foot.ie IP, which confused Foot.it to the point of suicide. Sorry about that, hope y'all didn't have to do too much work.

Big increase in productivity, not sure how I will explain the drop next week...

I did discover this site called google though...

**jmurphyc** · 31/10/2007, 4:35 PM

Thanks for the replies. Don't know what I'll do for the rest of the week if it's not working though.

**dahamsta** · 31/10/2007, 4:38 PM

It'll be working, I just can't guarantee it'll be up 100% of the time. Hopefully ye won't even notice. Either way, all to the greater good an' all that.

I thought Bailebans solicitor had taken severe action......

**dahamsta** · 31/10/2007, 5:49 PM

Two more implicit threats from the clueless muppet today. All of his posts were accidentally deleted immediately afterwards, and his email address was accidentally blackholed. You have to wonder about these people.

PAYE on the revenue earned from ads?!

Revenue have a policy of ignoring balances under a fiver...

**dahamsta** · 31/10/2007, 6:08 PM

In all seriousness, the revenue isn't that bad, it more than paid for the hosting in the past (although it'll be a while before it pays for the new server).

It was the very idea of paying PAYE on income that made me laugh, and of course the implicit threat to tell tales and steal my identity and/or sites.

Again, you have to wonder. I mean this guy is an adult like, he has a job in some natural healthcare company. Too many funny pills I reckon.

I just want to compliment Adam on all the good work he does on here. Thanks!

**dahamsta** · 31/10/2007, 7:24 PM

Thanks Metrostars. And with that, Foot.ie will be offline for the next hour or so while I have a go off a migration. Sorry!

The downtime here is very low from my experience, though I'd suggest patience over the next week or so. There can be teething problems with new hardware.

Adam, do we need to modify our hosts files in the short term?

**dahamsta** · 01/11/2007, 11:18 AM

Nah, should be ok. I'll be mapping a /29 to the server as the migration continues, so if the current IP address is blocked, ye'll be able to pick another one.
