New server is up and running and the move will happen this evening. The site may be down for a short time whilst that happens.

So... that didn't work at all. New server is set up and a copy of the site has been put on it, ready for us to move over but it's not working properly! Back on the old one for the time being.

That's a shame, its getting painfully slow at times!

Yep, I noticed that last night when I came on, I could log in and none of the links were working. Hopefully they sort it soon.

 

[Deutschespeed]

All sorted! Its not been a smooth process but we're back up and running!

Note that there may be an issue with some external image links appearing at the moment. This is temporary (and just down to how images are cached).

That might be an issue at your end, as I've just had an email notification of you saying the above.

I've sent you a test email through. Let me know if you get it. Could possibly an issue with junk/spam filtering. It's showing as delivered at our end.

Definitely no emails at my end, and not in my Spam/Junk either (I did check there before posting too).

We're chasing this down at the moment. It looks like there's been some kind of DNS setting that that has been borked as a result of the server move. It only seems to be affecting a small number of users so it seems to depend on how strict the security settings are on the recipent's email domain. Which is why @moonstone you're still getting alert emails and @EvilDrPorkChop isn't.

Please bear with us. We're on it.

@EvilDrPorkChop did you get the email we sent you in response to your query?
