Yikes.
So I knew my site was going to be migrated from its existing server at HM (Hyperion) to a different one in the vague future. Sometime Sunday I got an e-mail saying, “Hey, you’re being moved to a new server (Psyche).” Coolness.
So Sunday I really didn’t get a chance to do anything at my site, but when I got into the office I discovered that …
… things were broken.
My disk quota was all wonky and way into the red.
My MySQL databases were … empty. Which is where the blog stuff goes, natch.
MT was thinking it was a new installation.
My SMF forum was coming up with a missing table error.
Hrm.
Got a help disk ticket in place, and, after about an hour and change, things were back up and running and restored and copied and copacetic (as far as I can see). So things are okay now, and, hopefully, some of those occasional outages here will go away. Props to HM and the quick turn-around, and we’re back in business again.
Your POP server is rejecting my email password.
Huh. That seems odd.
Let me poke at that, too.
I’m glad you got this fixed. I ran into it last night trying to find the post you made about the 2nd episode of the Cybermen episode of Doctor Who. You’d gotten it fixed by the time I got back online today.
And … we went back down again. The disk quota mysteriously filled back up to overflowing. I’m irked that it happened, but the HM folks responded quickly to bump up my quota to get me back on.
I need to poke at it some more from home, since our company firewall has once again cut off port 2082.
And, for the record, Mary’s problem was that, on the new server, she no longer has to specify mary+herdomain.org@hill-kleerup.org, and can just user mary@herdomain.org. Huzzah!
