After several days of downtime PCM.daily is now back. And with back, I do mean "for good". It's been some rather hard days for me, especially since I have had to learn a lot of new things to get the new server working properly. Hopefully, I won't need to do more changes with that for a loooong while. There are still some minor problems at the site. As you may have noticed, the two photo panels are gone. This is due to a problem which I haven't managed to fix just yet - but I'm working on it, and they will return. Also, the downloads are temporarily down, but will be back up tomorrow. The Forum Threads Panel was one of the reasons why the site went down yesterday, and we will need to optimize it. Until that's been done, I hope you can live with the side panel --> ;)
I'd like to thank a few people for their work during these days of downtime: - Sunbao, the guy who led me to the new host - Kenny, who helped me setting up the dedicated server. He has also been helping me a lot with the bug tracking and optimising, and in general, he has been very, very supportive. You should all go visit his website, Cyclingsage. - Issoisso, simply because he was entertaining at times and tried to be helpful ;)
Other than that, welcome back! If you experience any problems, feel free to post them in the forum.
Glad you're back up. I'm an SA for a 150-server financial applications network, and have first hand experience at what a PITA it is when a critical system crashes.
And I really got a kick out of the daily progress notes you were posting at the URL. It's good you could maintain a sense of humor under the circumstances.
SN: I stupidly - very stupidly - forgot to make it viewable for everyone (but myself).
A_Schleck: Good to see you alive
Deadpool: It's been up and down a lot. Two days ago, when I tried reopening the site for the first time, I really felt everything was going great. I opened the site, and it went ka-boom. Of course I felt depressed
Brun: Yes, that was very well-timed
Everyone: The site might need to be taken down again -- or maybe even converted to a new system. This is just too slow.
