All good from my end

[Daniel]

Thank you for taking care of this Matt.

The only issue is not related to any of the work you've done, I can access the board on the new server from my Telstra mobile but my TPG home Internet has not redirected as yet. Hopefully that will rollover tonight.

[boxythingy]

I can access it too

[Fleet Lists]

I could access the new one for a while on my PC then fell back to the old one and just now have come back to the new one. Did we fall back again for a while?

If you don't mind, I'd like to make an "Explanation" post of sorts: AHEM...

When you transfer the DNS of a domain, The change does not happen straight away, Rather it takes up to 48 hours for this change to occur. Each ISP needs to make note of the change, and redirect you accordingly.

The reversion that Fleet Lists was talking about is not unheard of, Though it has never actually happened to me before.

I resolved that by clearing cookies.

In fact I had one funny one where a new post I looked up actually displayed attachments from the old server - some attachments which would have been lost as they were made after the backup was done. Obviously they were cached somewhere.

Withdrawal symptoms have gone.

[Ribble]

GREAT to have you back....I also was suffering Withdrawal Symptons..... thanks for the efforts.....

[captainch]

welcome back,been without my bus fix for days!

GREAT to have you back....I also was suffering Withdrawal Symptons..... thanks for the efforts.....

I'm glad I was not the only one who had Withdrawal Symptons, I visit 2 other forums on a daily basis and when any of them go down, it's bloody hard not to keep checking to see if it's back up & running.

I never realised what a huge part of my life this has become....
I now realise I will never say goodbye to this place, it means too much to me!

All good now, good job guys, would of been a big job

[Fleet Lists]

There has been a further major outage which has just been resolved.

There has been a double-allocation the IP addresses and they have now given us a new one, meaning we need to wait up to 48 hours for the domain name to correctly point to the new IP address...

Until the IP address propagates you can use http://184.170.246.114/~busaustr/forum/ temporarily to access ATDB.

I have found that the link from the forum to the photo gallery does not work but http://184.170.246.114/~busaustr/gallery/index.php will get you to the photo gallery

I guess this post is not really much use because once you have got here your domain name has been corrected by your service provider.

It has mainly been posted for record purposes.

[adx666]

One thing I noticed is that over 1000 of my posts have disappeared, any idea why?

[busrider]

Yes, I've noticed that all the post counts have dropped significantly...

[Bidgee]

Seems posts have gone missing which is why the post count will be down. http://busaustralia.com/forum/viewtopic ... 42&t=49653

[Daniel]

We've identified the issue and we are now working out how to reload the older posts which appear to have been lost.

[Fleet Lists]

I am currently locked out from removing the SQL error message on the Bus Australia home page.

[Alric]

I've noticed that all fleet numbers above 4803 in the STA Fleet lists have disappeared from the lists.

[Mr OC Benz]

I've just logged on, seems okay at first glance on here. BUT... I went to check out the NZ section of the Fleet Lists and I have discovered that several random operators fleet lists have disappeared, my last updates were around 05/08/12, and About 300 vehicles that I've recorded have disappeared. It seems to of been after the server had changed because during the down-time, they were all there displaying properly.

Edit: Problem solved.

[Fleet Lists]

I am currently locked out from removing the SQL error message on the Bus Australia home page.

That has now been fixed

[PRT 065]

The missing posts are slowly being restored. However as this is a manual process and that I will be interstate for a week. It maybe up to 2 weeks before they are all back on the website.
