What happened to the site? (Aka the sky is falling)
« on: July 23, 2008, 08:15:39 PM »
It's not the apocalypse! We went down sometime Sunday evening, our host, biggameserver.com claims it was a carrier failure. Waited until Monday afternoon... carrier still wasn't back. I then requested our host move us to the network that was working. Unfortunately, my host doesn't know jack about linux servers and forgot to specify the new IP in sendmail so sendmail was crashing on boot in the new network. I requested that the host simply issue us a new, fresh install and leave us with the hard drive for a few days. Well, that's the current status. The host still hasn't gotten his rear in gear and fixed this. We're now hosted off dreamhost because it's dirt cheap (<$6/mo) and comes with some nice perks.

We'll let you know if we get our old server back. Dreamhost will remain for our webhost, however.

While restoring the forums, I had to restore a 2 day old backup because the most recent one was corrupt. Sorry 'bout that. Figured you guys would rather have the forums now then whenever my host fixed the server so I could grab the latest forums DB. Also we're looking for our current release .zips because no one on the dev team has 'em apparently. Preferably from an older forum member who can trust not to inject our code with stuff. :)

I've seen the post asking for old zips in FP. I've not responded, because since we've gone SVN, I've stopped downloading our true releases. Shameful, I know, but still. :P

Edit -
Found Newest.
http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=30866 = ULX 3.30
http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=30867 = ULib 2.20

I also have in a folder here ULX 3.02 and ULib 2.03.
I could zip those individual.

As for archives, well, think I have all of the gm9 versions, and maybe even the Gm10 'tweaked' version of the gm9 stuff. You know, that quick release we did just to try to keep people happy until we finished rewriting ULib/ULX. :)

We're on 3.31 and 2.21 Jam :P (thanks, though, I found the installer on my comp and got the latest from that)

Yah... I have all the old stuff in my local backups as well. Boy were people angry with our quick gm9-10 hack port. :) No one seemed to believe we were serious about it being a hack port and that we were actually working on a proper version.

EDIT: We have two free domains for 'life' with dreamhost. Any suggestions?

The main site's back in all it's glory. Now I need to go work on SVN and the bugs page.

EDIT: Attachments are being restored now.

Everything except our game server should be just like they were now. Let us know if you have any problems.

Attachments don't seem to be working. One example is Jay's ASpam release.

I saw that, but every other attachment I checked works.
