Evening Outage

Postby Zancarius » Tue Aug 18, 2009 11:49 pm

Hi guys,

Sorry about the lengthy downtime this evening. Turus was in the process of putting on some "value-added" stuff for the 'goons other games (he runs a number of game servers). Unfortunately, Gentoo doesn't have a very good upgrade path from where it was at to the current version of things. Simply put, the well-needed upgrade broke stuff. Worse, some of the breakage wasn't documented, so we hadn't any idea this would happen.

Fortunately, re-building the web server and everything that went with it fixed these problems. The remainder of the evening was a result of a single configuration option that we overlooked. (It was my fault, too, because I've run into this particular problem before and didn't remember it!) Anyway, things should be back in working order. There were a LOT of things that needed upgrading, so we took the opportunity to get it all squared away while the web server was offline.

You shouldn't notice any further issues. If you do, please report them.
