Guest greymomx2 Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 Since this will be an extended time on the development server, I will restore this database to the main server. The server was suppose to be shipped out to me today. I'll need to do some updating, then get it to another datacenter. It will be at least another 2 weeks before we get it going on a better connection. Hi Jeff, Is it still that plan to have all the posts that we're currently writing on the development server transferred to the "real" server? There's a huge thread on Houndmama that we don't want to lose (well we don't want to lose any of them ), and we're wondering if we need to copy the whole thread somewhere and save it so we can then put it back up. (I don't know how that would be done, however...). Thanks! We DO appreciate ALL you do for us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree 100%, I went ahead & sent Pegasus' remembrance over to an email, but I appreciate the copy over. You will definitly see a little something extra in your envelope when my donation time comes around, maybe before then. I almost feel like we should have a national holiday for Jeff & his crew! I thought at first it was a raptor, then a gisselle, then a surfer sign of some sort, then a skeleton of a greyhound head...JUST WHAT IS IT! he he he Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2hounds Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 It has always looked like a weird goat to me...but Jeff said it was his hound's paw with the 2 outer toes out.

MisserGil Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Any new information regarding the server issues??? I have to say that I don't spend as much time over here as I used to because its slower than a snails butt and if you click on a thread, you can't just scroll down that thread, you have to make sure you give it ample time to load or you will get stuck in this blur screen. Although some of that was happening before.. Maybe this is just a way of weeding out people who take up bandwidth without actually adding anything productively. I keep hoping to log on and actually have fun again on GT....

Pippin Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 In the weeks since the server went down, I have only twice experienced the slowness that others seem to experience regularly. *shrug* I don't know what's special about me, but that's been my experience. Jeff - I know that you you and the mods are doing all you can to make this process as pain-free as possible. Thanks for all your hard work. Mary Semper Fi, Dad - I miss you.

Jeff Posted September 18, 2006 Author Share Posted September 18, 2006 The main server is here at my home, but we are not running on it. **IF** I get the remainder of the items from the datacenter that were missing from the initial shipment this week, I'll have it all shipped to the new datacenter as soon as I can. I am waiting for the other items, and dealing with the now defunct datacenter is a PITA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
