DELE ctpl_admin_acp_groups.html.php 550 Could not delete ctpl_admin_acp_groups.html.php: Read-only file system Any idea when this will be fixed? |

QUOTE(Michael K. @ Jul 21 2008, 01:39 AM) Why did this problem occur in the first place??? The read only filesystem is a normal thing when you are running a server on Linux with extremely disk intensive applications. As I understand, something wrong happens and the disk will only mount as read only. I'm no technician but I think it's not a big deal. It just means you have to reboot for a fsck. Also a fsck on a huge disk will take a lot of time. |

Also a fsck on a huge disk will take a lot of time. As i understand Linux, it's rare, even in disk-intensive applications, that you should need to reboot a server at all. Many many many web servers are Linux-based, and i have a hard time believing that rebooting those servers is a normal routine. Maybe it is, and all those other servers have the advantage of being in clusters, or at least not being VNDV.com. In the mean time, it's July 24 and this problem is apparently ongoing. i was able to upload an initial bunch of files, and no sooner had i made one edit than i'm having this exact problem. Following the debacle last weekend of having NO service whatsoever to VNDV, it makes me wonder how Zymic can continue with this if the service is so shoddy. It's a free host, and i'll be the first to agree that you get what you pay for. But the idea supposedly is that you get a base set of features that improves when you upgrade to premium/pay service. Well, so far, a consistently operational server with steady accessibility would be a premium based on the current free features. Damn Comcast and their no-server rules EULA! |

Aaaaaarghhhhh... It's again read only! I was working on my site half an hour ago and it was my fine. Now it's got read only!
So, that means today again my site will remain down for a few hours while admins take the server off to fix it? |

Really, calm down. <_< i understand the admins are doing all they can do. And i accept that it's a free service which leaves little room to b**ch about it. But it's more than just an eye-rolling tedium to have the service down significantly twice in under a week. Huzzah that Zymic is taking action to change providers, but i guess i'm willing to pay my registrar for their hosting plan so that i have peace of mind that my site will be available any time i need access to it: either for editing or for displaying to potential employers. i'd hoped to save myself some money, but i guess you gotta spend to make. Thanks anyway Zymic. i'm outa here. |
