From Skillz on discord

This weekend stats.free-dc.org will suspend updates on the database for a few hours. The reason for this is to pull backups of all the databases.

I need these backups so I can test the new server with them. Hopefully everything will go smoothly and I can move on to the new server rather quickly. (ha. that never happens)

I suspect this will take a few hours to dump each one of the databases. The site will still appear to work, but nothing will be updated during this time.

EDIT: I understand things went well and all is done. :cool:

Has there been work on the newapps pages for WUProp hours at Free-DC? I only get a 404 error when I refreshed my tab.

I have updated the site to run on php 7.3 (previously Php 5.x) and have a test site up and running this current version. If you guys could check the site for any thing that doesn't work* please let me know.

*I am looking for problems related to what currently works on the main domain stats.free-dc.org and doesn't work on the freedc.teamanandtech.org. I'm aware some stuff (well maybe a bunch) doesn't work on the main site and that stuff most likely wont work on the test site. This is just getting the site updated to the latest version so I can move it out of my house and into a datacenter. The speed of the site also shouldn't be of concern as the test site is actually in a datacenter, but the database has not been deployed to the datacenter, nor have I upgraded the hardware on the database server, yet. This is will come later.

FWIW, on Sunday when I prepared the weekly stats, I looked at several different kinds of pages from stats.free-dc.org and freedc.teamanandtech.org side by side (our special weekly stats pages as well as a few different pages which are part of the normal "user interface"), and did not notice any differences.

I am guessing this "down" status is just caused by the cloudflare timeouts. (Which are only happening irregularly/ intermittently for me at least.)

Edit,
correction: https://free-dc.org/ --> cloudflare says either "523: Origin is unreachable" or "526: Invalid SSL certificate".
https://stats.free-dc.org/ however basically works (for me, and for downforeveryoneorjustme it sometimes seems down, more often up).

Bad weather took out the WAN network port on my router so I had to assign a new port for WAN duties on it. This caused my ISP to assign me a new IP address in the process.

So the site was down until I got home from work to get it going.
free-dc.org is down due to some kind of SSL certificate problem likely from their being a different IP address now. Its just forums that I am shutting down anyway. Got other stuff to work on that track down that problem.

Like moving the site to the datacenter so I don't have these issues anymore.
