Title: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: ab§olute_Z3R0 on May 17, 2009, 06:11:46 pm Update!
MLNO.org is working again, so you can use that to enter the site again. There was a recent update with SMF; all of those who have custom domains under SMF will be moved to a new server, so Admins, you will need to re-park the domain, and for everyone, until the domain name is working again, you will need to use mln.smfforfree4.com. For more info on this announcement, see the SMF Announcements topic. Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 17, 2009, 06:18:32 pm *Cough* It already got moved to a new server Ab-Z. =P That's why everything's weird I think.
I don't think that worked... Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: 0PureChaos0 on May 17, 2009, 06:22:56 pm Well, at least it's working again. I think it was down for almost a day.
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Flipz on May 17, 2009, 06:26:44 pm Will someone plaese PM me when the mlno.org address works again?
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 17, 2009, 06:33:04 pm It'd be the same as now probably... =/ For some reason server 4 seems to want to be slow now >_>
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Flipz on May 17, 2009, 07:04:55 pm I keep getting HTTP 500 Internal Server errors when I try to read topics...
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 17, 2009, 07:09:08 pm On this one? I'd assume it may be because of the fact that it's being all glitchy and everything... Try using shift and clicking the refresh button, it may be a case of the cache being different.
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 17, 2009, 07:16:19 pm Here's a topic from the update last May... the thing about if you get on after the server move is pretty interesting, and I think people should read it. (http://www.smfsupport.com/support/announcements/server_maintenance_this_weekend-t16548.0.html)
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Flipz on May 17, 2009, 07:26:55 pm That explains a lot. NOW I know what was causing the slowness; Time Warner Cable hadn't updated their DNS yet. Now that they've done so, I'm back to full speed!
EDIT: ...but I still can't access the mlno.org address. What's going on? Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 17, 2009, 07:29:51 pm Aah, okay. I figured it may have been a DNS prob there while reading through this stuff. It should all be back to normal within 24-48 hours... Except for the Domain, I don't know when that'll get fixed...
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: MsRowdyRedhead on May 17, 2009, 07:44:06 pm I did as they suggested in the topic you linked, and it did help. Tho it still seems a scoche slower...
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 17, 2009, 07:49:59 pm Actually seem to be going a little faster for me... And it's probably because everyone's getting on the SMFForFree 4 sites now all at once, and maybe there's a bit of waiting needed... I'm not quite sure at this point. At least it's not failing though =P
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: MsRowdyRedhead on May 17, 2009, 07:52:01 pm Very true!!
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Flipz on May 17, 2009, 11:30:44 pm SEMI-OFFICIAL CUSTOM DOMAIN TEST LOG:
9:28 PM PDST mlno.org still doesn't work. I will edit this post each time I try mlno.org until I get through. 4:) Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Maplen13 on May 17, 2009, 11:33:51 pm (sigh) I already knew this and told designerdud at our old place of MLN Ligers. But oh well.
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Jas765 on May 18, 2009, 02:02:47 am Yay, we're back!
Aah, okay. I figured it may have been a DNS prob there while reading through this stuff. It should all be back to normal within 24-48 hours... Except for the Domain, I don't know when that'll get fixed... Did you change the IP whatsit to the new one? Quote Ip's for custom domain users: 76.73.98.2 smfforfree.com 76.73.98.3 smfforfree3.com 76.73.98.7 smfforfree2.com 76.73.98.8 smfforfree4.com 76.73.98.10 freesmfhosting.com 76.73.98.11 mysmf.com Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: MsRowdyRedhead on May 18, 2009, 02:13:48 am Quote The following applys only to those who are using a Custom Domain name: If you purchased a domain, and parked it on smf for free, you need to change the IP for the nameservers. You would do that at your domain host (where you purchased the domain name and did the nameserver information originally. Do NOT update the nameserver IP until you are given notice to do so when the move is completed. .. THere will be a notice on the page when the move is completed telling you when it is okay to do so Thanks, SMF For Free Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Jas765 on May 18, 2009, 03:11:38 am Ah, 'k.
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 18, 2009, 09:40:19 am Actually, I think it's any time after the move this time, but... It was SMFForFree who got our Custom Domain, so he'd be the one who'd have to update it...
Oh hey, it works. *Goes to update the URL to be MLNO.org* Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Jade on May 18, 2009, 11:21:42 am That would explain why I couldn't get on!
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Maplen13 on May 18, 2009, 11:25:15 am That would explain why I couldn't get on! yea.. that was the whole explanation. When I tried, I thought it was my firewall/proxy, so I put all of them in low, still did'nt work. Later I thought it was something wrong with the hosting server, Looks like I was right. Guy 1: you said HOSTING SERVER not FORUM SERVER you idiotic DOLT! Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Darth Rexus on May 18, 2009, 11:27:23 am I knew it, I was waiting for SMFforfree to move smfforfree4 for about 2 hours, it was killing me!
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 18, 2009, 11:36:41 am It took even longer than that ;) It started around 9 or so, and ended ... I forget, but we finally could get on around when this was made.
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Jade on May 18, 2009, 01:11:58 pm I just know I powered down my computer because we were in the middle of a thunderstorm, and when I tried to get back on, MLNO didn't work. So, I went to the main SMF website, and that didn't work either. So, I guessed that the whole SMF network was down. Look like I was kinda right.
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 18, 2009, 01:14:41 pm Kinda... The Support forums stayed up, but it was all moving to new servers this weekend. Ah well... It's mostly over now... All we have to fix is the custom domain now...
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: MsRowdyRedhead on May 18, 2009, 01:29:47 pm Yup... MLNO.org works, but all the other pages have the smf addy
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 18, 2009, 01:31:32 pm Yeah, that's the problem, it's doing what it did before, except in reverse... And I can't update the forum's URL to MLNO.org either... =/
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: MsRowdyRedhead on May 18, 2009, 01:40:04 pm I came on from my mlno.org bookmark...
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 18, 2009, 01:51:16 pm Yeah, but it redirects you after you click on another link. And I can't figure out how to set it back...
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Jade on May 18, 2009, 01:54:34 pm I just know I keep getting signed out if I click on Home.
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 18, 2009, 01:55:24 pm That's weird...
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Saturn2.0 on May 18, 2009, 06:36:57 pm I should've tried the smf URL, I was stuck trying to get here for two days.
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 18, 2009, 06:42:23 pm It was down until around 5 or 6 last night since Saturday afternoon though ;)
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: MsRowdyRedhead on May 18, 2009, 09:09:07 pm It has been acting weird again the last few hours...
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: lynndr on May 18, 2009, 10:40:00 pm I never got around to changing my bookmark to mlno.org so things just started working again - proof that laziness sometimes pays off. ;D
All I've really noticed is that the forum seems a bit faster - not much though so it could be my imagination. Mind you, after a server migration not noticing anything is actually good news. Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: lionytai on May 19, 2009, 04:19:14 am Well, at least it's working again. I think it was down for almost a day. 2 daysTitle: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Jade on May 19, 2009, 01:07:43 pm I never got around to changing my bookmark to mlno.org so things just started working again - proof that laziness sometimes pays off. ;D Blade took off spellcheck... so that might have something to do with it.All I've really noticed is that the forum seems a bit faster - not much though so it could be my imagination.

Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 19, 2009, 01:08:49 pm Actually, It got disabled server side, I just unchecked it since it wasn't doing anything ;)
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Jade on May 19, 2009, 01:09:46 pm But, like lynndr said, the site HAS been running faster
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 19, 2009, 01:12:29 pm Yeah. Plus, no-one knows if it'll be back right now... =/
/EDIT: And the Custom URL is fully back~! =D Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Jade on May 19, 2009, 01:13:55 pm I noticed that when I got signed out :P
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Kritzelei on May 19, 2009, 01:14:46 pm Hooray! It's back! I got signed out too.
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on May 19, 2009, 01:15:46 pm ^_^; Sorry 'bout that. I just realized I should've tried it. It must've taken a few hours to be fully reset. =)
Title: Re: [IMPORTANT] ALL Read For Your Own Good! Post by: MsRowdyRedhead on May 20, 2009, 03:06:44 am Hey, I checked the calendar, it wasn't YOUR day to be perfect...
