renai.us is down?!?

#1 Post by Recca Phoenix »

Now I've been away for a while, so excuse me if this is already old news by any chance.... but today I tried to go visit the renai archives and was greeted by several error messages, even when I tried again.
Was this temporary, or what?
Anyone else had this problem?

It's been a few hours that it's down (I added three games today, luckily just before it went offline), I suppose some maintenance is going on, should be back soon.

It's back up, for now. (The server was getting overloaded this morning.)

Okay, we _should_ be back up. I decided to upgrade the server, to see if that will help. We'll see.

Hmmm, I added the new downloads to the downloads section... but the system apparently wants them from the "game" directory... so if you change http://www.renai.us/game/gamename.zip to http://www.renai.us/dl/gamename.zip it could work? I can't try, because it's down again. And I kind of need to sleep, it's 2 a.m. and my jet lag is slowly wearing off ^_^.

No, it's good to pull the alarm when you see something is down. I need to know about it, so I can fix it.

Yeah, although that's hopefully coming to an end. I now have a watchdog in place that will restart the sites if they go down, and email me the problem as well. (I'm also hoping that the new libraries will improve the stability of the system as a whole.)
