Holy freaking goddamn it, the server was down almost whole day yesterday.
And when it went up again, there were errors in few database tables I've fixed only now.
I can't bear this anymore... I'm going to buy another hosting for LTS and, probably, for ISFF too. Does anyone have experience in that? I will need some help... Sad

Yeah this is the first time I've been able to log on in about a day... I figured the server was having some major problems. Unfortunately computers, especially something like running a forum, aren't my strong point... so I'll step aside and let someone else take the floor.

Look at that hand, lying there
The room is dark, she shows no fear
I'm lying still, my eyes are wide
My heart is pumping, I'm still alive

I'm still awake against my will
What will it ever take
To still this burning in me?

You're not the only one who's been having server problems. I've been having some issues of my own, but hey, at least I didn't need to repair any tables. Tongue

I'm sorry that i can't provide any decent solution Sad

But if we talk about LTS only, it's a rather small board, not too heavy in bandwith terms, so a small hosting could be fine and not too expensive. Problem is, i don't know any! I was thinking of using my home server as a backup, but my upload speed is crap (~35KB/s)and would be useless.

I don't know anything about ISFF, but LTS shouldn't need too many resources, so it could be hosted on a rather cheap webspace package. How many webspace and traffic do we need? Host Europe offers a package with 500 MB webspace, two databases, PHP and other script support and 50 GB traffic per month for 2.99 EUR per month. The .net domain costs an additional 1 EUR per month.

Thanks for replying people... I'm checking some hosting companies these days.

But I remember you once posted an .mp3 track (with Lisa/Smith interview) and asked us not to share it too much because heavy traffic can cause problems. LTS will produce much more traffic than that file...

Okay... Smile can you create a virtual host for LTS then (connected to "lisa-simpson.net" and "www.lisa-simpson.net" domains)? We need:
- about 300 Megs of disk space;
- PHP;
- .htaccess and mod_rewrite enabled;
- one empty MySQL database.
I also need your server's IP and an FTP account. Tongue

If you can do that, please send me FTP/MySQL connection info via PM. I'll check the hosting and if it works okay, will gradually move LTS on it.

I concur!

Though I haven't had any problems for over 2 days now. Something must've been fixed. Well done!
