rubydazzler 22-04-2005, 19:09 signed in - yikes! Forum will be back by Monday! shock, horror, dry mouth ... fingers started trembling .... went to make a cuppa - came back and there we all were ... as though we'd never been away ... :D
Good job, Mr Founder :thumbsup:
Kristian 22-04-2005, 19:31 Well done Geoff. Apparrently certain emergency helplines were flooded by calls this afternoon by distraught Sheffielders; can't imagine why? :D
I must admit a small bead of sweat appeared on my forehead when I read the forum will be back on Monday. I was overjoyed when i checked back an hour later and it was there in all its lovely forum glory. Well done Geoff :clap:
uncleheed 22-04-2005, 20:21 Well done Geoff,for making my weekend on call more bearable.
:clap:
Moving busy sites is never fun, kudos Geoff :D
Well done Geoff, I guess the forum is now on bigger better server which is why it had to move?
muddycoffee 22-04-2005, 21:15 I thought, oh well the forum's down this weekend, that's good prolly get all my work done, and have a productive couple of days, but no,
genius that he is Geoff gets every thing up an running in double quick time and that's another of my weekends wasted.
there goes the lot of a foraholic
muddycoffee,
Have to say that as a Mod. I was looking forward to a weekend in which I could sort out my blogging pages, update a few web sites, tidy up the study, groom the cats, groom myself, etc.
As it is, it's business as usual! :)
Next time I move a forum for someone I'm just calling Geoff to come and do it for me!
Joe
Yep I had a few teething problems but Geoff PM'd me to srt them out, ta for keeping me informed :thumbsup:
I've tried to send a couple of pm's this morning but get an error each time (Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mail() in /home/sforum/www/admin/functions.php on line 103) is this to do with the move? Or have I broken something?

Hazel just posted a thread saying that she is having the same problem, so most likely it probably is just a result of switching over the servers. Can you see the text at the top of the screen which states you are on the new server? This still displays a message saying that email features (including PMs) are not working yet. If it carries on I'd email Geoff :)
Ousetunes 23-04-2005, 07:21 Geoff - how did you manage to get it all in the back of your Robin Reliant?
I'm impressed.:clap: :thumbsup:

I still have the message at the top of the screen
'You are now on the new server - well done! Virtually no downtime for some users :-)
E-mail features, such as PM/topic notifications currently not working.
I cannot update my email in 'my profiles' nor can I contact help@sheffieldforum.co.uk
Hopefully it will be sorted out as TracieJC suggests :)

It's gone now :clap:
Thanks for the thanks.
E-mail notifications, PMs and registration activation codes should now be working fine.
Let me know (via the contact us (http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/misc/contact.php) page) if you spot anything else not working as it should.
:cool:
