Flitterkill July 31, 2014 Share Flitterkill GC Board Member July 31, 2014 Someday soon, like real soon, we'll be moving this website to new digs. DONE! Please post any bugs/missings/upload fails/etc. in this thread. Thx. We've been with FutureHosting for a few years now but needs and times change and for what we need they no longer have anything that fits our budget (or at least we can get moar elsewhere) The newness is better of course. Dedicated cores vs shared cores. Same memory. More than double the HD space. Nginx, Zend Opcache, etc. We've upgraded the game servers, time to up our web game as well. That means at some vague unannounced time the web will be down, and then it will be back up. There *might* be some missing things here and there but nothing that can't be replaced. There also might be some of the usual chop as we figure out what to cache and what to use to cache it and all that jazz. SSL certs (blah) need redoing. Ton of junk. But M0M is on a staycation right now so the timing for all this couldn't be better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose July 31, 2014 Share Jose Member July 31, 2014 Very good news! btw... and a CloudFlare layer would be nicer too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flitterkill July 31, 2014 Author Share Flitterkill GC Board Member July 31, 2014 I'm not entirely sold on CloudFlare and other stuff. For the store we have to have ssl and there is some chop with CDN stuff and SSL (unless one pays for it and then there is the configuratering which I don't even know if IPB.Nexus can even handle right now) Let's leave it at maybe? Looking forward to just getting things working firstly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stutters August 1, 2014 Share stutters GC Alumni August 1, 2014 Remember that time cloudfare failed and broke the internet? That was a fun one. http://blog.cloudflare.com/todays-outage-post-mortem-82515 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flitterkill August 1, 2014 Author Share Flitterkill GC Board Member August 1, 2014 Real close so I put up the announcement. We're testing with a copy of the db now. When we are ready we'll close these forums for posting, copy the db again, ramp it up and then flip the DNS switch. We'll set up a redirect do people can get to us again. Hell of thing that outage too. Someone wrote a benign dns/router rule and captured a bug that crapped Juniper routers. One in a million that, but also, yeah, cdn.

Flitterkill August 1, 2014 Author Share Flitterkill GC Board Member August 1, 2014 Move is done. Bugs reported here. STUFF THAT IS PROBABLY WIERD FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS OR SO: CONFIRMED DOWN! Nexus store front. Can add to cart but checkout requires SSL. Working on it. Game Server auto-reserves for new members. Gotta open firewalls, change some ips in scripts, etc. Sourcebans. Same reason as above. Some of our pages you can access in the menu are broken. Different furl structure so blah blah edit blah etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose August 2, 2014 Share Jose Member August 2, 2014 Congrats lad! I'll be able to notice the difference in speed once my ISP stop being so packet-lossy. I remember the headaches nginx gave me two years ago, every web software written in PHP used to only ship with the standard .htaccess that is apache-like webservers only... so I forget that .htaccess had any restriction to a certain folder and users were able to access known php scripts of the forum, specially those that had vulnerabilities like LFI/RFI.So I hope this isn't the case! About CloudFlare... yeah they had a big issue but it was only once (I hope, lol)Many of you in the US won't notice any speed boost, but people outside the US can fetch cached images, scripts in the nearest CloudFlare's edges making the loading page time way shorter.Also I wear this... so I've to advertise cloudflare everywhere! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robinbanks August 3, 2014 Share robinbanks Member August 3, 2014 I am unable to login from my steam account after the migration. I have cleared all browser cookies but to no avail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flitterkill August 3, 2014 Author Share Flitterkill GC Board Member August 3, 2014 We're getting there. Just enabled pagespeed. Wow. EDIT: I think I have a handle on the Steam problem. Will be a bit more. Also tackling various errors I'm seeing in the nginx error log for this site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flitterkill August 3, 2014 Author Share Flitterkill GC Board Member August 3, 2014 Clearing more errors found in the logs. Apparently iPad users ask for a special sunshine version of favicos. Never knew. Those of you doing so should now be getting a black GC logo. Adding in missing graphics in various places. Probably not going to notice any changes but it does clear the logs so I'm all for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flitterkill August 4, 2014 Author Share Flitterkill GC Board Member August 4, 2014 Steam login should be alright. SSL seems to be back and happy. That means the store is good to go. Purchase memberships, renew memberships, etc. Other than tackling a small redirect problem we should be solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DFIREWeeman August 4, 2014 Share DFIREWeeman Member August 4, 2014 (edited) I have seen a minor bug just to let you know of. The PM system doesn't seem to follow the proper time stamp format as the forums. I sent a PM this morning, but the time stamp indicates that I sent it at 9:03PM. So unless I am a time traveler (which would be amazing) this is an issue. Here is a screen cap. Nope! Scratch that! My profile time zone was set to Dublin time. /insertidioticcommentshere Edited August 4, 2014 by DFIREWeeman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flitterkill August 4, 2014 Author Share Flitterkill GC Board Member August 4, 2014 There is some chop still with Steam logins. Creating a new GC account by logging into Steam is fine. Using Steam to login to that new account is fine. But some/all old Steam login accounts seem to not recognize the new-ness and instead of logging in to the account try to create a new one. I suspect there are some hashes or something somewhere that need to be nuked or something something... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crasx August 5, 2014 Share crasx GC Alumni August 5, 2014 suggestion : http://gamrs.co/forums/index.php?/user/4038-crasx/ remove the bing thing. I think its lagging the pages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flitterkill August 5, 2014 Author Share Flitterkill GC Board Member August 5, 2014 That's a MemberMap thing. Can be disabled but where are you getting lag? Page loaded instantly for me, map and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crasx August 5, 2014 Share crasx GC Alumni August 5, 2014 maybe its because I'm on linux. The whole page just freezes for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilovetomatoes August 6, 2014 Share ilovetomatoes Member August 6, 2014 Did the redirect from gcftw.com go away? I thought it was working before, but gives a default webserver install page now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flitterkill August 6, 2014 Author Share Flitterkill GC Board Member August 6, 2014 Still puttering, badly apparently. Redirect fixed though it dumps you to the logo page at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
