ChiefsPlanet SERVER - Now The Issues Thread...

[AustinChief]

Ok, I have been haggling with my hosting company for the last few months... trying to get a decent deal on a new server. Here is what I have finally been able to come up with...

The new server will have 4GB of RAM (double what we have now), 3 times the hard drive space and more importantly... the hard drive will be SATA which should make a huge difference.

ALSO... we have the new software but the hardware has been holding us back.

The only bad news is that it is going to cost me an extra $100 a month more than I already pay...

...so if anyone feels generous and wants to help out the cause... feel free to donate...


I have added a DONATE button to the bottom of the page in "full featured" mode and I believe there already is one in the upper left in "at work" mode.
I have decided to kidnap this thread for issue's since the upgrade is done.

New Features:
-Casino
-Arcade
-Ignore Thread, you can now ignore individual threads
-News Ticker
-2 new templates that move the sub forums to the bottom of the thread listing page
-Membermap

Known Issues

-Search is currently disabled (Search still freezes up the BB)
-The show avatar button in the friends list seems to only work for that viewing
-The new cookies are acting up, remember me and sometime the templates get confused - Current solution is to clear your cookies for the planet
-Try to make the look of the ignore the same as in the past, with that user disappearing. (current fix is a Firefox extension here (http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=182835))

-Signatures are currently showing for thread starters in At Work mode. (fixed morphius)
-you can't rep a thread starter. (partially fixed DaFace)
-Change the "collapse" buttons to red (Fixed morphius)
-Thread Starter borders all goofed (Fixed morphius)
-No Quick Links at the top of the page (Fixed morphius)
-the link to the forum added back between Previous Thread and Next Thread at the bottom of the thread view page (Fixed morphius)
-Since you can't attach files to the thread starter I removed the option to even try. (morphius)

lol!

Very cool Kyle! This should help a ton! Especially with the software upgrades as well.

[Dartgod]

I was going to donate, but keep getting this message when I click the button.
The server is too busy at the moment. Please try again later.

[pr_capone]

Sent you a donation.... its not much but its all I could afford ATM.

[AustinChief]

I was going to donate, but keep getting this message when I click the button.

Ok, now that is funny... hopefully when this is all done... that joke will be a thing of the past.

[BigRedChief]

Kyle, I'm in also. If you wil pm a physical address I'll set it up in Quicken to cut you a check for that amount on a monthly basis. That way there are no paypal fees and I can just set it up and forget about it.

[Bugeater]

Ask, and ye shall receive. Wish I could do more but times are tough for me.

[penguinz]

Great news Kyle! hopefully we can outgrow the performance of the SATA drives soon. ;)

[Iowanian]

Congratulations Carl, the 5 year plan appears to be bearing some fruit!

I'll set that up for you as well. As much as I've been to your place lately, you could stand to use a home service contract.

No chit, you got a good head start on the college fund for the young one now.

[Mr. Kotter]

Thanks, Kyle. I'll make a point of dropping you a couple of donations a year.

Unless you rehire Zach as a mod. Or if I decide to post a "I'm leaving" thread for real. ;)

[Simplex3]

Any ideas when the switch is supposed to go down?

[jAZ]

You should do a pledge drive once a quarter. I would donate reguarly.

[DaFace]

Thanks Kyle for getting this worked out. I'll pledge to donate as soon as we make the switch. Forgive me for wanting to see results first. :p

On a side note, I know the topic has come up quite a few times in the past, but could we put some sort of advertising on the site somewhere to help pay for the fees? I'm sure the majority of people would be willing to put up with ads in order to have a more reliable system.

[El Jefe]

Thanks BRC.

[DaFace]

You should do a pledge drive once a quarter. I would donate reguarly.

I wonder if it's possible to set up an automatic payment once a month or something like that. It would only take 20 people donating $5 per month to offset the added costs of this thing, and I'd be more than happy to do that.

See post #7 :LOL:

Yeah, but I was thinking something more along the lines of something through PayPal. I know they take a chunk out of it, but you'll burn $.41 each month on postage anyway.

I do it through Quicken. Set it up in the software. VPN tunnel into the bank. Upload and download transactions. They mail the check, not me. Get the service for free.

Are you sure? is it gonna be shared with Patriots Planet?

[AustinChief]

I just want to thank everybody for the support!

I am hoping to have the server by the weekend... but that is up to them not me. Once we have the server, it takes 2-3 days to get it kitted out. Then I will start cloning the site over... last thing to go is DNS. I will keep everyone appraised as it goes down.

[kstater]

Thanks for all the hard work.

[ChiefsFan4Life]

That seems like a lot of work. I can do the same in BillPay with US Bank for free without any additional software, VPN tunneling, etc.

[HemiEd]

I have added a DONATE button to the bottom of the page in "full featured" mode and I believe there already is one in the upper left in "at work" mode.

Anyone willing to match my donation send me a PM and I will find a way to send you proof of donation so you can match it.

how much is a ticket to austin?

and a bikini?

[Fish]

Could you use additional hardware (SATA drives/RAM), or has that been purchased already?

I tend to have lots of extra equipment around that I'd be happy to donate.... Wasn't sure if that was bought/hosted by you or the ISP...

Let me know the specs if you do....

[JBucc]

So what is this place going to look like now? As in got a link to a forum that uses the updated software?

[Phobia]

No chit, you got a good head start on the college fund for the young one now.

Yeah, I can pay for about 20 minutes now.

[dtebbe]

The PayPal link at the bottom does not seem to work. It takes you to the donate screen, I enter an amount and click update totals, and then it gives a page not found error. I'll send it manually, but you may want to fix that.

I'd also like to challenge the rest of you that bitch about the server all the time to get off your a$$ and send some $$$ to AustinChief.

I will loudly proclaim that I've been one of the biggest complainers about the server. I will also loudly proclaim that I will gladly help out once everything gets done.

However, I do see your point. I'd imagine that there are others who will not likely be donating that have complained for quite a while.

[stanleychief]

How about a 'pay per post' policy, with stupid threads and replies getting charged a higher rate? :)

Does this payment thing mean we get a "premium" forum?
I'll kick in.

[BigMeatballDave]

If we donate through snail-mail, should we place our
username or something alluding to the Planet? This way Kyle won't think he's getting cash from random people.

no? - ok then, never mind.....










nah, I'm in for a couple months, figures to be better spent than at some bar, and besides - now that I'm broke I'll just have to stay on here even more THAN I EVER HAVE BEFORE!!!!!

[Fly O.T. McWall]

if i send you $99 do i get a magaizine or anything?

[OnTheWarpath15]

I'd be more than happy to donate, and will do so once things are up and running.

Thanks, Kyle.

[2112]

I'll donate once everything is in place.

Does a non Chiefs fan get a medal or something for doing this?

In case anyone's interested, I posted an online survey (http://coronaresearch.com/surveys/index.php?sid=93) to provide a more firm estimate of how far we have to go to help Kyle out. Please take a sec to fill it out, regardless of whether or not you can donate.

It worked just fine for me, but I have never made the first complaint about the server.

Something about that old saying, "don't look a gift horse in the mouth" has always stuck with me.

[Buck]

Not to be a Debbie Downer about the change, but I really doubt there will be Server issues until next season...

Wouldn't you save some money if waited 6months to make the change?

Edit: Then again, there are a lot of cool features on that.

A CMS (Content Management System) front end for articles and other things. We had a tech committee before that was in the planning stages of this but never came to fruition.

There is a really nice plugin that will link a vbull install with drupal so that you have the same usernames/passwords.

[Phobia]

Smed,
You should have aired your grievances with me. You told me to prepare enough for 20 people @ $15 per - or whatever the actual amount was. This was for Thanksgiving 2006 so I don't remember for sure. I brought 2 turkeys, 8 racks of ribs, 10 lbs of jambalaya, 3 pies and who knows what else. I didn't make money on that tailgate. I covered my costs. You offered to buy for all attendees. I'm not looking to screw anybody - EVER. You ordered the food and I offered you the leftovers. It's not like I can take that back to the store. $15 a head for that kind of spread is doing it for free. I have no guilt about it. I wish you had discussed it with me rather than trash me about it in public.

I had nothing to do with ChiefsPlanet at the time nor do I now. So don't let that impact your decision to donate to ChiefsPlanet.

If I can decipher everything correctly between him and Phil...

For Thanksgiving a couple years ago, smed offered to pay for all the WPI people who wanted to stop by for a good meal if Phil would prepare it. Phil guessed it would cost around $15 per person to prepare said meal. smed told him to prepare for 20, or $300 total. Only 4 (or maybe three) people showed up, so smed's pissy that Phil still asked for $300, even though Phil had to pay for all the food anyway.

Is that close to accurate?

[Third Eye]

You'll be seeing my donation in a couple weeks. I'm in the process of moving and having major car work done so money is a little tight. Once things settle down I'll get it in.

[dtebbe]

Smed,
You should have aired your grievances with me. You told me to prepare enough for 20 people @ $15 per - or whatever the actual amount was. This was for Thanksgiving 2006 so I don't remember for sure. I brought 2 turkeys, 8 racks of ribs, 10 lbs of jambalaya, 3 pies and who knows what else. I didn't make money on that tailgate. I covered my costs. You offered to buy for all attendees. I'm not looking to screw anybody - EVER. You ordered the food and I offered you the leftovers. It's not like I can take that back to the store. $15 a head for that kind of spread is doing it for free. I have no guilt about it. I wish you had discussed it with me rather than trash me about it in public.

I had nothing to do with ChiefsPlanet at the time nor do I now. So don't let that impact your decision to donate to ChiefsPlanet.

I always suspected Smed was a little f&ck, and this confirms it. He's probably never actually bought groceries before....

Hey before we have a full fleged pile on going here let me speak up for smed1065.

Myself and onthewarpath58 tailgated with smed at the Indy playoff game in Indy. We shared some jaggerbombs, watched each others stuff, gave some chit to Colt fans. We had a good time on that day.......until the game started. :banghead:

I can also vouch for Phobia's honesty enough that he could use me as a professional business refrence.

Whatever is going on is between them and that post shouldn't have ever been posted especially in this thread. Let's let it go.

Close. There were more people than that but everybody had eaten at their respective family lunch prior. The ribs were eaten but almost nothing else. In fact, in a fit of obnoxiousness and protest I ate half a pumpkin pie myself because nobody else would. Smed, I put those other two pies in the freezer and they were donated to a food pantry where they went to two needy families for their Christmas meal.

I sent a couple racks of ribs home with Smed and he has claimed they were the best he's ever had in several posts here. I don't get the rant. It was his party, I just brought everything. I'm guessing a caterer who does this for a living would have charged more than double.

Sorry this sullied the thread.

No. When we switch it will just be down hard for a couple of hours. It's unstable because we're on the same server as PatriotsPlanet and they're getting hammered this morning.

[Undertaker #59]

Yeah...I've got probably 100 new registrations since midnight. Most of them are rotting away in the moderation que. We are continuing to get probably half dozen new registrations per hour. Until things settle out, most will stay in the que.

[HemiEd]

Wow, they have 1037 users on line. 900ish are guests, I wonder if they are all Giant fans?

Some are, but they are from all over. Cowboy's fans bragging about 5 trophies. Ditto for Steelers fans.

One thing making the whole problem worse is the other large Patriots site collapsed under the activity and a majority of them come to us when they have problems.

Other places are going down before THIS server? How the hell does that work?

I don't know what his hardware details are but supposedly they upgraded their server before the AFCCG. In the past they have also been victims of DOS attacks so there is a chance that is happening to them again as well.

That kind of activity has to be a challenge, and a lot of fun. Maybe not so fun for you, in your position though.

[AustinChief]

In hindsight, wouldn't it have been prudent to make the move prior to the SuperBowl so Patriots fans would have been able to enjoy the performance of the new server? I guess I just don't understand the rationale. Not that my opinion is worth anything, but I'm not following. Is there something I'm missing?

that would have been smart... but I ran out of time and didn't want to risk moving it on Saturday and not having it back up in time. i have two big work projects over the next few days then i can get back to it.

East coast. They're two hours ahead of us.

As soon as the server is upgraded and functional I'll be more than happy to donate more funds to the cause. As a matter of fact I'm looking forward to it.

I'm starting to get the feeling you will be holding on to your donation money for a long time then

[|Zach|]

Hall Of Classics.

[smittysbar]

Is this going to happen or not?

Any update would be great.

[ChiefsFan4Life]

I'd be pissed had I actually donated money

Congrats on not donating, but I'm sure some did

Kyle is good people. It's not like he's stealing your money. He's fronted this place out of his own pocket for a long time - not to mention all hours of free labor he's given. He and I didn't see eye to eye on the direction of this site, but he's not a dirtbag.

[Bugeater]

AFAIC, what I donated I owed to Kyle regardless of whether he ever upgrades anything or not. Hell, it's the first time he's asked for anything since I've been here.

[AustinChief]

I know this is taking forever... but it is a huge task. I am currently running BOTH this old server and the new one... I have moved all but this and the Pats site over. Unfortunately, my real job has been crazy the last week so I haven't had enough time, but that is starting to settle down so it will be soon.

I do understand, Kyle, so don't feel like I'm griping at this point. I know it's a lot of work. However, I also know you have a track record of being more optimistic about getting things done than are probably reasonable.

It's not like that server's all bogged down at this point. We've got a few months before it will be a real need again, frankly.

Thanks, just had not heard what was going on. I will donate

Relax face. This is a one weekend job remember? Of course, it has been a very long weekend.

[AustinChief]

NO, we haven't switched servers.. but we are much closer now...

[1ChiefsDan]

NO, we haven't switched servers.. but we are much closer now...holy crap - i feel like the chiefs are in the SB as slow as the site it tonight

[AustinChief]

We are very close now... but I have to stop for today and get back at it tomorrow. Thanks for being patient.

Well....it sure seems to be working pretty slick at the moment. :thumb:

We are back and on the new server!

[the Talking Can]

Good to hear. Thanks for all the work, Kyle.

Now if we can just get the upgrade done, we should be all set for a while!

[1ChiefsDan]

Thanks Kyle - once I copied and pasted the link everything worked fine.

Glad I have been in Houston this week with vendors getting me drunk every night. CP addiction is hell.

[Mr Luzcious]

Holy crap! It works!

[DaFace]

Oh, can I make a request to have at least a few hours' warning next time around so that we can pass the link around for the downtime place?

That'd be greeaaaaat.

Jesus, that took forever. Heh.

[Deberg_1990]

SO...WTF Happened??? I feel like a part of my life was missing these past couple of days....

[HonestChieffan]

Thanks to whoever fixed whatever.

[AustinChief]

A quick summary of what happened....

The server went down due to some runaway MYSQL processes and I took the opportunity to finish the transition to the new server... the problem is... that switch took MUCH longer than anticipated...

Long story short... we are now on a new server that is WORLDS better than what we had.

[htismaqe]

Awesome.

[Chief Pote]

I'm sure glad we have a smart geeky guy running this place. :D :thumb:

[smittysbar]

Thank god. I thought I was going to wear out my refresh button, trying to get on here. Well at least it's done, thanks Kyle.

Is anything going to be changed or upgraded? Or is everything going to stay the same as the old board.

[SLAG]

Too bad the chiefs just didnt loose a game so we can test the new server load balance

I guess we have to wait til the Draft
