Site Downtime
«

All,
Please note that due to moving of the website to a new host, there will be some downtime over the next few days. When I've a more accurate time frame I'll let you know.
Hopefully this will be kept to a minimum, and not cause to many problems.
The address of the site will not change, and you should not notice any difference when it returns.
Any questions, please ask.
Cheers
Dan

Tim,
I last changed host about 8 months ago, changed then as the previous host was becoming very unreliable.
I am only changing now as the host I use (who I am very pleased with) are stopping hosting services !
It should only take me a couple of hours, but may take a couple of days to feed through the internet.
Cheers

I thought we were moving to a new host? Still looks like
Yabb SE
the old host to me. I was under the impression that they were stopping webhosting?
I have to say though ive had a few problems with a4all since the 'move'. last night the site wouldnt load properly (even after clearing my browser cache), and still seems slow to load today. Sorry! :-[
PS half the 'buttons' ie Reply, Modify, delete etc are not visible either. They are still there, just not appearing on the screen.

Richard,
YaBBSE is the board software, not the host. The previous hosts were, lewismedia - who informed me about 2 weeks ago that the are stopping hosting services tomorrow !
We are now hosted with lypha, who will hopefully provide a good long lasting service.
I'll have a look and see if I can spot anything that would have stopped you ising the site last night.
Cheers
Dan

Thanks Dan for clearing that up. I got confused between Hosting and Software.
Still having a few problems at my end. Use of A4all isnt as smooth as it was before (not at present at least).

We too keep getting error messages, saying that the site has insufficient memory due to a bug in the operating system, theirs not mine. Did give an error number, 37 and 35 I think.

It was a database error on the host.
I am trying to sort out what went on to stop it happening again.
Sorry for the lost sunday night :(
