Jim Disney Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Okay people... I wanted to let everyone know what was going on with Westcoaster. There's been a little bit of a problem with our hosting company. They've been moving all of their Domain Name Servers into a centralized arrangement. In the process of moving everything, they accidentally moved our domain information to an older machine that apparently still had our site on it (but not updated since 9/19). So this is why the site is not functioning properly or the community isn't up. Currently a few people can still access the site. But it will be incremental over the next day or two until everyone can see the correct site. I'm very, very sorry for the inconvenience we're all dealing with. But thankfully, my biggest fear of the site getting wiped out or anything like that hasn't been realized! So right now it's just a waiting game until the DNS servers for everyone's web providers update until you can see the site again! Thanks for your support and patience.

Jim Disney Posted February 25, 2005 Author Share Posted February 25, 2005 ^Well, I was just going to blame it on you... but then I thought about it and decided to just place the blame where it deserved to be. Jim "I <3 Burritos" Disney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hattuchili Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Yeah, this morning I thought first it is a problem with AOL, that I could not open the site. I wrote an Email to Robb and he told me a few seconds later that there is a problem with the host. But now I am gladly that all is working again. --Soeren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imaki Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 And here I thought the new update scripts caused a time warp... It is good to hear everything is intact! Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reza Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Glad to hear the site is still 'intact', nice way to get more people to sign onto this forum . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not For Sale Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 You don't have to be sorry! These 2 sites are free of charge, you're doing the service to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Disney Posted March 1, 2005 Author Share Posted March 1, 2005 First off... I have to get this off my chest; F**K LYPHA!! That felt good... words are completely worthless in conveying my overall dissatisfaction with our web host recently. I think with these guys we've actually suffered more downtime than in the previous 3 years. So for those of you who can see the site; congrats... if you're in the boat with the rest of us... just remember kids, never... EVER use http://www.lypha.com for your hosting needs unless you plan on dealing with at least one major downtime a month. Again, sorry for the downtime problems... but thanks to those of you who've sent some very nice e-mails. Hopefully this won't last much longer...

ebl Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 ^ The one good thing about Westcoaster being down is that you guys won't have to read the stuff I post there! Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 ^^ I have to agree with you there, Jim. Luckily my outage only lasted about a day, but I can tell you that I'm actively looking for a new webhost as well. --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
