Site Problems
Site Problems
Dear all
Just want to apologise for the temporary disappearance of the site. Frankly, it's been a nightmare - not really clear what went wrong or how - seems to have been something to do with server updates to Apache 4 (whatever that means).
I'm hoping that nothing has been lost. Haven't tested everything yet, but we do appear to be back up and running.
Happy new year to you all!
Best wishes

Re: Site Problems
love this site! thanks for bringing back online!
Re: Site Problems
Glad it's back.
I was wondering if the recent slow trickle of activity had led to the plug being pulled - happy to see that's not the case. This is too valuable a resource to let that happen.

Re: Site Problems
I'm glad we're able to visit this nice, sometimes a bit quiet forum again. Thanks!
Re: Site Problems
Yes, sorry about the glitch for a few days - the server ran out of space and one thing seemed to trigger another! Got there in the end and know how to deal with that problem should it arise again.Quiet Visitor wrote:I'm glad we're able to visit this nice, sometimes a bit quiet forum again. Thanks!
I wouldn't take the site down without letting everyone know - and, in fact, have just renewed for another year - even if it's a year of relative silence!

Let's hope the silence does not last forever and that we have not waited in vain.Blemished wrote:Quiet Visitor wrote:

Re: Site Problems
Sorry that site lost its background graphics recently (mid Dec 21) - have restored to month start and made some space and all seems ok now.

Re: Site Problems
The site was not approachable this week and now it is shown in a wrong way. Hope everything is fine.
Re: Site Problems
Apologies! There are some weird things that happen to do with for caches, and I’d forgotten how to clear them!

Re: Site Problems
Thank you Blemished - I am a consistently infrequent visitor, and the last two times I checked I thought the site was dead. Very much appreciate your stewardship of the site!Blemished wrote:Apologies! There are some weird things that happen to do with for caches, and I’d forgotten how to clear them!

Re: Site Problems
Another reviving of the forum! 
Re: Site Problems
Hello again - once again had problems with the site. Hopefully now cleared. Unfortunately it is always subject to spamming which generates huge error files. Am looking into more permanent fixes.
