Well... I didn't get to bed at 11pm as planned. But after some trouble I finally got the database copied and migrated here to the new server (but not the new dedicated server!).

I am guessing that all users will have to re-login and since many of you probably don't remember your passwords it may be a huge cluster-floogle as the "forgot password" system was not working last I checked (a week ago). It's dishing out random passwords but they don't work.

So...if you need a new password hold tight. Email me if you must. But if I get a hundred emails I am not going to have the time to manually reset all of them so fixing the forgot password system will be a better use of my time.

Welcome to the new server.

Cheers,
Jim

It seems Armorama is much faster now. The pages load in no time...

Thanks, Jimbo.

I was thinking the same thing, plus I don't have the problem of some elements loading and others not...now I have it all.

Yeah I agree with Maki the site runs like the devil is chasing it :-) :-)

Congrats to have it up and running again Jim

You have no Idea how big our gratefullness is for what you are doing for us here. At least mine is.

good job Jim, we apreciate all the hard work stug

Jim, thank you.

I don't know what else to say. The management and maintenance of this site is by far the best I have seen (anywhere).

Jim,

It is great to see the site back up and running, but ... It is extremly slow

and the admin section is not up yet, but that will chance soon I think

Ronny,
The same is true for me this morning. I was afraid of this. I was promised by the folks at Interland that this server would be identical to the one we were on. I am starting to doubt this is the case. Especially after the amount of time it took to perform the 56mb database file upload last night (which I had to do several times).

I will have to complain I guess and see if that gets us anywhere. If not we will be moving to a dedicated server post-haste.

Jim

Hmm....it seemed to be a momentary slow-down. Now the site is running well.

Keep me updated on this folks.

Jim

The site is up and running again....great performance too from what I've seen here...

Thanks Jim.

Now you can go to bed..... :-) Don't get up too late tomorrow... #:-)

I couldnt agree more! The site will begin to make my cable modem work out now! Anyway, i couldnt agree more, thank you so much for this great site to talk about and learn about modeling. Its a great place to learn!

Hi,

All working fine here at this time.

It looks to me like the email notification system doesn't work properly.... anybody noticed this too ?

So far so good. Great job on the mogration Jim.

Jim, thanks for all your hard work of keeping this site up and running!
