Hi.

As you already know your sites are up, and mainly working with a few features still off line - you're all checking your sites, and we're letting things go back down to normal before we turn all features back on. But it won't be long.

We would appreciate you all checking your sites for missing files. We don't think there will be any (I'll be very surprised), but obviously the old server is now just extra cost, so we will be releasing it soon. So if you are missing files, we will be losing them soon.

However, it's more likely that your sites actually have MORE files than they used to. Any files deleted in the few days before the final transfer had already been transferred, so are still on the new server. Sorry about this, but it's better to have too many files than too few!

Obviously we're still watching things very carefully, to see how this server settles in. We're not expecting anything, but please let us know if something doesn't work that you think should, or vica versa.

Thanks for being patient over the last few days, it took a lot longer than we said it would and has been a lot less stressful because of your patience.

thanks for the update so some of the features of ZCP will be unavailable, but for how long? till the transfer to new host is complete?

Dacads

If you read carefully it says
.
That's how long ;-)

The absolute answer is until it's complete. We estimate that this will take 3 days.

Hi, I need to update a table but now I can't access PhpMyAdmin... I could change a file to do what I need but FTP isn't working...

What can I do? Help Please!!

All I can do is view my files.
I can't transfer anything
It is giving the you have exceeded the 50000 transfer limit (of which i am no where near)
EDIT:
It works now

I don´t know so much about websites codes and these things , when I enter to my gallery (Coppermine) I have this...

"Coppermine critical error:
Unable to connect to database !

MySQL said: Too many connections"

Is for this that you say?

In other gallery of other uuuq.com site I haven´t that problem

UPDATE : Ok , now works

Any information about when control panel will work again?
I'm new on zymic.
at this time i can say it's an awesome service.
Thak you for providing us (poor mortals) a way to have "our" server on www!!!!

As is said in the original post, we estimate this will take 3 days.

swordz

I'm kind of glad. it was taking 5-10 mins for each of my database pages to load....
i thought it was just me. im glad it wasn't!

hello, sorry if the cuestion is stupid but, the .uuuq is going to change?
I´M asking because i have links to "mypage.uuuq" so I was wondering if it is going to change

I hope, it would be back to normal soon.
I m conducting a survey, and i need to download the sql database for analysis.

Thanks for the update, been busy otherwise the last few days. I'm patient.

hotligui, your site name will not change at all.

swordz

Please re-read the first post.

swordz

I think you can still use FTP though. I am using mine right now and I tried to log on to my PHPMyAdmin because I needed to edit my databases to work properly and that's when I found out about this.

FTP will be going down shortly when the dns is taken offline.

swordz

what time do you think it will be up again the web sites

I forgot to add an edited time.

It'll hopefully be back by 13.46 GMT+1 tomorrow.

swordz

it need how many hours?

just to make sure that like 11-06 13:46

is there any way i can access my cpanel when this is down? That way i can at least notify the people of my website?

I understand, I just hope it comes back online quickly

Guys obviously you will not be able to do anything with the ftp and cp till it's done.

I just hope that they are done soon. Because i have just finished making the biggest version of my program. Version

While the sites are down you cannot access any of your files etc... or login to zcp. The transfer will take as long as it takes, patience is they key!

Hey swordz and Banjo. Thanks for keeping us updated! I'm sure we all appreciate you guys cleaning out the phishers and we are all anxious to seeing uuuq back up and running how it should. At first I was being told by my viewers that my site wasn't coming up and I was worrying that we were ddosed again. Glad to see it's nothing severe and should be back up and running in the next few days!

is the server transferring on schedule???

Can't wait till its up running again!!

Got too much time on my hands right now

Will the new server have Zlib support?

any news??
still waiting here..

Sorry, it's night time GMT, so lots of us have been asleep.

No-one with server access has woken up yet - so I can't tell you up to date info - but last night we were just about on shedule, although it might be a bit tight. We'll do our best to stick to it.

The new server will not have Zlib support - the problem is not that Zlib isn't possible, it's just not safe with the script we have.

Your sites will be on line as soon as possible - we want them up as well!

swordz

Thanks for the continuity; I know Jack and the Zymic Team are working hard on this transfer.
I don't have any reasonable knowledge of the extensiveness or a frustration of the endeavor being undertaken here other than it appears as a necessary.

I really want to thank the ZYMIC's for addressing the situation on short notice, and, no doubt, the expertise they are employing to preserve materials of the webs they are transferring.


As a little side note for us "homesteaders": I have to acknowledge this expedited foreseen/unforeseen transfer of service may not go as planned and there may be a loss of information (some or whole) in some cases or instances due to unforeseen event(s) of/in digital, i.e., I'm sure that hiccups occur in the digital world just as accidents occur in the real world. (We have all lost data on our own computers, no doubt). I myself feel it a necessary evil (insurance) to ensure the quality of my files by having a complete personal backup of any and all data created by me for me and not relying upon anyone (any entity) else. Chance favors the prepared mind (in other words: prudence in having your web backed up for just such an emergency).

Thanks Jack & the Zymic Team, if it takes a little longer than anticipated I understand and know you are doing your best and then some - take the time to do it right the first time.

I would like to say that the VAST majority of files were already across - this final transfer is only the last 2 days of files. To be honest, we're quite impressed at the amount you've all managed to change in the last 48 hours!

If there is any data loss, which I doubt, it can be no more than 2/3 days.

That having been said, Zymic does recommend that EVERYONE keeps a copy of their data.

swordz

I am getting this while I log on to my site:



Does this mean that my site is currently being transferred?
Are there any chances of loss of data?

All sites are currently off line due to the transfer - it simplifies the process a lot.

Read my above post about data loss - but there shouldn't be any.

swordz

swordz, i hope my site will just show up better after this .. thanks for the great hosting service!

So it means that the site is transferred into the new server and no data loss will occur during the transfer right?

I think it may be difficicult to maka a copy of our site if FTP 's down... lol
I hope it'll come back soon.
If the service you provide is best after that, I agree.

Well I'm not sure because I was using my FTP in the afternoon yesterday so not sure if the DNS was changed or not but it was working for me but today it's down.

BUMP - Updated 1st post.

Workish - As you've uploaded all the files, you should have a local copy anyway... The only thing to download is db's.

swordz

thanks for keeping us up to date, we appreciate all your hard work.
emma

now its 3 oclock in gmt +1 so youll finish in about another 3 hours right

300+ guest reading this omg

Any news on estimated time to be up and running?

Pls give us updates on when will the server transfer be completed. I think the given estimated time has been over. Wow 357 guests are viewing this topic

h-p on line. Wait out for the others, won't be long.

swordz

thanks for the update, hope all others will be online soon

h-p means sites beginnging with h through p, am I right? So you're doing this alphabetically?

I have a site starting with H but cannot FTP.

We're sorting ftp now.

We have the sites organised onto 3 disks. The middle disk finished first, so is back on line.

swordz

OK. ETA on "my" disk?

The full answer? ASAP, same as it's been since we started .

But not long now.

swordz

My site is back up but my phpbb3 forum isn't loading. I get a "Connection Interrupted" page when I try to access it.
