Server fixed, we're back

It seems our server id having an issue, probably ram related. No worries, professionals are on their way and will have the server checked, in between, enjoy your life and go sailing if you can ;-)

We are back, enjoy ! Le_Spirit (for TheTeam™)

Well, we're a bit late aren't we ? Some dust cleaning took more time than expected, no worries, we'll soon be back... normally ;-)

Server is back, culprit seem to be a php update, followed by a second one (php8.x-xdebug)... enjoy your favourite place.

Oh yeah, and I gave a spanking to Kim Jong-Un because he should have taken better care of our server, but shhhh, don't tell anybody!

Hi all, it seems our server is down. An upgrade was applied this morning (CET), it's maybe related ?

Anyway, stay tuned, a restarter is on its way to our secret base.

we're back, enjoy !

came home and noticed msj was down, a server restart has been requested, we should be back soon... many updates this morning, maybe some glitch within one of them ?

We do not do support here... check your spam folder first (99% of chances it is there), otherwise write us at msj @ macserialjunkie dot com

Okidoo, maintenance done, welcome back aboard!

(Version 3.3.13 -> 3.3.14).

The maintenance is planned for today the 25th of November, from 15-17 CET

You can keep yourself informed here.

All right, maintenance is over, enjoy

Update has started, keep calm and... go sailing ;-)

We're back online it seems.... see you there !

No worries honey bunnies, work under the hood still ongoing... keep calm and go sailing in-between ;-)

Time mostly, as many of us...

• we do not have a support plan for such operations with our hoster and have to rely only on good will from unpaid voluntaries that run msj for fun, knowledge sharing (stw) not for business

We will be back, but it will take several days before you / we get your / our fix again, sorry.

Facts:
• the server is fine and up to date

• fixing / restoring such a large db takes time, be it on the server or on local machines

Right, some news... our server crashed during a background database routine maintenance operation meant to speed up the board accesses.

Our server crashed, a restore operation is on it's way, please stay patient fellow junkies...

Maintenance over, thank you for your patience !

The maintenance is planned for Thursday the 6th of June, from 9-12 CET

You can keep yourself informed via our Bluesky account.
