James, Full speed for now, but based on recent history, it probably won't last long. I've spoken to Eric (our admin) and he agrees with what some of the others are saying in this thread. Go Daddy is having problems, that aren't related to our database. We plan to move to another hosting service. I'll make an announcement as to when, in the very near future.

David,

Here is a free, for 30 days at least, monitoring program that tests the websites speed in opening and uptime every 5 minutes, 24/7

Yes, for the 30 days free trial. I didn't pursue after the trial.

Well ^)^%)())!!!!!

We just went with a new hosting service with a wonderful reputation for up time.

So after a few days we went down. ^&)&^^*(!!!!!

I will say that they were responsive and we were up in about an hour. Let's hope it is the last time. :/

I didn't want to say anything................but I was starting to get worried.

Glad it's back up and running.......

Hopefully it's all done hiccuping. :)

Thanks,

Brian, I was more than worried. :-& There were several servers affected, but the outage was dealt with very quickly and I was emailed with updates as to their progress. Since this company has no "live" phone support, it was a point of concern. Go Daddy had phone support, whose usual answer was, "It's nothing on our end." Then we would be left to twist in the wind, while the issue miraculously fixed itself, over the course of many hours. Email support, with the new hosting was very prompt and any ensuing questions I posed were answered just as promptly. We'll see, (he says with fingers crossed).

David; Wishing this won't happen again, but if it does, do you think it would be beneficial to point the members to the status pages for the hosting site? It's not that difficult to find who the host is, so I don't think you will be releasing any secrets, but it might be useful to the forum members. Or, is there someplace else that members can get a status update, short of everyone sending you an e-mail? Maybe a temporary or unused site somewhere? The main home page appeared to work long after the logon page went down. Is that on the same server? Overall, the new host, IMO, is a lot snappier than the previous ones.

Carl, I'm not trying to keep the hosting company (Dreamhost) a secret, so pointing to their status update page wouldn't hurt. We've always had the Delphi forum as a backup, but nobody has used it on the occasions we've been down. David "The Stunt Engraver" Lavaneri DGL Engraving Port Hueneme, CA

According to the response to my support request, our server "locked up."

We were down for about 1/2 hr.

The server was rebooted and has been stable ever since.

Brian, After the brief outage of yesterday, I'm told the server is being monitored for long term stability. Dreamhost, despite not having live phone support, has been very responsive and upfront about any issues they're having. That wasn't my experience with GoDaddy.

Mike, Getting close. I ran a "faux membership" the other day and the payment system is working fine. Working on other aspects before we'll be ready to switch to the subscription format. I do appreciate your eagerness though. :-) David "The Stunt Engraver" Lavaneri DGL Engraving Port Hueneme, CA

Had connection problems earlier....almost seemed as if the forum had been reset.

Worked great for a bit and now slow as molasses in January here in the upper midwest.

Thanks,
