CPUK down?

Share this page

Yep. Should be back shortly. Server upgrade I think. While they're at it, they should upgrade those godawful atrocious forum skins. Things make my eyes bleed.
 
Yesterday, I noticed a message mentioning something about a planned outage on 1.20.08. Didn't pay attention since everything was working at the moment. However, when I finished writing a response to a PM, it was dead and wouldn't accept my message. Great timing! ???

There was a post on the forum announcements:

The forum will be down from 21:00 hours on the 20 January 2008 for an hardware upgrade of the server. Expected downtime is 24 hours.

OK what am I doing wrong, the home page will come up but when I click on the forum link there's a page not found message ?!? The others seem to work but there's no alternate route to the forum link for me.
 
I have a bunch of websites hosted by Hostultra, our servers were taken down Jan, 20th for repairs, they were found to be irreversably corrupt so a new server had to be purchased and setup. I believe CPUK is also a customer of Hostultra as they have just gone back online but all missing data will need to be restored from backups that CPUK has, if any bacups are kept of php forums - I don't know. Likely everything may start over as a clean slate as only the hosting client's accounts were kept on file at Hostultra. They are attempting to have the old servers "mined" to get old data out of them but I would not hold my breath. I've got my sites back online now ((ya'll can go look at my DIY sterile transfer hood post images again) but CPUK probably has a lot of stuff to try and get back online - just be patient. :)
 
More or less. I still cannot reach the forum at this time. Perhaps later today. Interesting that the host IP resolves to
67.15.42.40
darwin.soho.aussiehq.net.au
 
Looks like they are now running the same format as groundspeak which is ten-fold (nay! infinite-fold) better than that nasty holiday theme format... Glad they are up and running again.

xvart.
