New Server -- New Speed!

[DDGator]

Wow.  Tech guy today completed our seamless (I think) migration to a new server.

My first impression is that the speed of navigating the forum is vastly improved.

Let me know if you have any problems.

[TechGuy]

I didn't really do much testing... just really crossing my fingers. So please let me know if anything is funky.

[tracker]

Works great so far.

[Richard S]

Seamless, and almost as fast as Tracker catapaulting from the deck in his A-4 Skyhawk.    Great work!

[CaptBW]

All good!

Way to go TechGuy!  Seems fast too.  Did forum funds cover this new server or do we need to come up with a fun(d) raiser?

Duane,
It is faster for sure, my messages loaded much faster than before. (my personal test)

Thanks
John

The exact cost is yet to be determined...    I will let you know if its an issue.  

The increased speed is great.  Apparently we have been relocated to a private server where we are not competing with so many others for server resources.

   Duane I tried John's (yankee 2500) message test, and it's quite a bit faster than before. Thanks Duane and TechGuy, good job!     Gene

I must be the only one having trouble.  Haven't been able to sign in since Thursday after the Forum went down.  I switched to mobile and got in a little while ago.

The private server must not be working with my ATT wireless or FireFox.  Tried both of those just now, again; a firewall may be blocking.  Still says cannot communite with website.

     Duane, you asked if we had found any problems (hell I'M a problem around computers). My computer won't let me delete PMs. I follow the prompts, do it the same as I always have and I just get a white page saying it can't be done and that my mother should have drowned me at birth. Computers pick on people like me. If others have had this same problem, it would be a relief and you and TechGuy could fix it. If it's an id10t problem, I'll just find a twelve year old and he can fix it with a couple keystrokes. Thanks        Gene

I'm still having problems.  I can't sign in to the Forum at all without going to Broadband, which is mobile.  I thought it was my firewall brocking the private server, so turned it to off; tried again; no luck.  So now I'm stuck with using mobile which is sooo slow.

This is the only site I have to do this.  Everything else I do on the computer works.

I can't delete PM's eithor.

[TechGuy]

 kjtrains - can you copy and paste the exact wording of your error message. You may want to try going to rohrbaughforum.com without the www in front of it and see if that works. My first guess is that it is a DNS cache problem on your end.

I will look at the PM deletion problem tomorrow.

B/R,
Steve

    Thank you corey! I'm so glad it wasn't me this time.Gene
