ijor Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 atari-forum seems to be down for a couple of days. Anybody has any idea what is going on? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari8guy Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 For me it was down approximately 48 hours ago, then up briefly and now down with a message saying “be back soon, undergoing maintenance” or something similar. Makes me think the first outage was some incident and the second one is in response. I’m just speculating though. Hope it’s back up soon.

bfollowell Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Me too now. It was up a little while. Now it says down for maintenance again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ijor Posted May 16, 2020 Author Share Posted May 16, 2020 Still down, and what is worst, no word from Dal, neither any note at Atari Legend. Dal has, or at least had an account here at Atariage. Hope everybody is ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snarkdluG Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 I read this at https://forum.atari-home.de/ written by Dal on facebook: Quote "Hi all - The forum is down for maintenance while we move servers. Please bear with me as it won't be a 5 minute job! I'll post back once we/re back up and running again. Thanks!" Later: Quote I have the new vps commissioned with the base installation. Need to finish the hardening and config before I can migrate the sites off the old box onto the new one. I'll be grabbing bits of time over the weekend to work on it as and when I'm free. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only guess he’s either had problems with the server migration or hadn’t had time to finish the job. Bob C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darwinmac Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 The latest update I saw confirmed that he hasn’t had time to finish the work. It sounds like he isn’t on furlough like a lot of people in the UK and he’s had to fit in the server move with his work schedule. He mentioned that the work had to be done by Wednesday. I assume that’s when his provider is permanently tearing down the old server. Bob C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darwinmac Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Looking at the Facebook group and my own attempts, nothing has changed. Bob C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNameOfTheGame Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Looks like things are progressing, but it will take some more time.

Christos Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 It's probably a dns issue. Maybe the change hasn't propagated all the way since I still see the board is under maintenance message. Funnily enough I use google dns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I am going to assume that Dal is the person talking about the upgrade on Facebook. I saw an update on Wednesday. Anyway, he is upgrading some other pieces (phpBB and MediaWiki, as an example) while it is down. However, the biggest problem is he has too many real life commitments right now so the upgrade is being done when he has time. Since I cannot seem to copy the text of the Facebook post, that is a summary. I would say we just need to be patient. It will be done eventually.
