I noticed that during the day RenForums is randomly super effing slow.
Is there a problem with the server?

Happened both at school and home so it isn't my connection.

I think it's a DNS error.
And I also think the provider should take a look at it.

It seems to be a problem that's partially related to the backup process of FUDforums (it seems to close the database when dumping it) and partially related to an unidentified server problem.

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

I *think* I've figured out the problem, but in order to fix the database that is (probably) causing it, I can either have a long downtime (could be up to 8 hours) or slightly slower for a couple weeks while it fixes at a low priority. I went with the latter. I'm about 1/3rd of the way through the process.

If this doesn't work, I'm going to get a new server and move all the sites on the server over one at a time until I figure out which one is causing the problems.

I'm the bawss.

Doesn't matter here either if you close it down for a bit, if that option will work best then go for it.
If you do though, please let us know beforehand if possible Wink

How do you get a week out of 8 hours?

added: I to would be fine with just shutting it down and getting it fixed.

Hey Goztow, are you planning any lay-out updates to modernise the forums anyway? I think since renegade x we need the community look modern too Very Happy

I like the current layout lots. But that's just me I guess.

Besides people having signature images 5x larger than their actual posts, I like this forum template.

So you want a 1/3 done layout that works for shit and no one likes? It will be ok though because we will call it a Beta and make promises for the future!

Funny you're saying this, as this is something that I've been thinking about for a while. Not necessarily a change of lay-out, but rather a 2nd choice of template.

However, I'm the coding type of guy, I'm not good with design. So I'd need to convince Wiener to work with me. And we'd need some help from Crimson as well. All in all a lot of if's, so don't count on it happening anytime soon. We're all very low on time, unfortunately.

I noticed the renforums speed problems are gone for the moment, for me.

There is already a second choice of template and I am using it... it's called default Razz

OK, my maintenance on the server is more or less complete. We haven't had any load spikes in about 4 days. I have disabled the script that caused the frequent disconnects.

Here's hoping I've finally gotten this figured out!

I'm the bawss.
