CSDb moving to a new server
Hi everyone.
I've been planing to move CSDb to a new server for some time now, as the old one was getting old. :)
As the new server is running new versions of php etc. I need to recode bits and pieces, which is why it has been going a bit slow.
Then today I got a mail from my hosting company, telling me that the old server is flashing red. They say it's a pending hardware failure. :(
Hopefully nothing will happen before I get CSDb moved, but I will for sure not have the time to test everything as good as I wanted, so be prepared for misc. stuff acting wierd when I get it moved.
The worst case is that the old server suddenly crash, and data will be lost.
I'll make sure to take backups often, and transfer them to the new server, to make the loss of data minimal in this case, but I though you should know this is a possibility.
Anyway, hope to see you soon on the new server. :)

Good move. Time pressure always help to get things done. Glitches doesn't matter that much in the light of having faster response times nad such stuff tha comes with more powerful server. ;-) Good luck with the move. |

Update:
It's now been several hours since I completed altering the code to make it run on the new server.
I have testet it on both the new and old server (with a little help) and found a few minor things, and fixed them.
There are some scheduled jobs that run at night, which I would also like to test before making the final move, but if they run ok tonight, I'll move CSDb tomorrow. :)
I'll put up a warning which will be impossible to overlook when I make the countdown, so you won't risk that the old server will shut down while you are adding some info. :)
Again - if you find anything, please report. :) |

Good. You haven't forgot to setup a https server on this new location, right? Seriously, it's 2012 and still plaintext logins on csdb ;(

Feels a lot faster now! Excellent!
First bug noticed:
When I click on a "function" or "country" from a scener profile, I get a error message on the top:
"Warning: Illegal string offset 'category' in <path-and- file-removed>.php on line 6"
but still get the content as normal. |
