Hello people,
first of all: I'm really, really sorry for the downtime. I was lucky to have been already preparing our new server to replace the old one.
The extra load occurring due to the Easter event killed knuffel and wuffel, the old servers, which were really due for replacement because of the increased requirements during the four years they have been serving.
So, welcome to the new server, kylian.kofk.de, now serving http and database for our site. I'm not quite done configuring the server, and actually knuffel and wuffel are still up doing parts of the work until the new one is really up to its task.
I expect things to be still broken on the site, though I had a quick look-around and fixed the non-working stuff I noticed, and I'll be fine-tuning the database and the http server during the next few weeks at least - so, problem reports here are welcome, and patience on your side until everything is up and running again is appreciated.
Now I need a break... have fun!
Update by Firn: I have put together a list of all errors that have been reported so far, so if you are encountering one of these, you do not need to report them anymore, unless it has been stroked off the list as "fixed" but is still happening to you.
- Marketplace: Auctions that are over not being completed Fixed the cron script, may take a while until the stuck auctions are processed though...
- Server time incorrect (Affecting: Wild Knuffel ending times, marketplace ending times) Server time is now UTC, and changing it again would cause more problems. Midnight refreshes will happen an hour later than before, hope this is not too much of a bother.
- User temporary not being able to log in / log out Fixed the sessions table which was probably causing this (and several other malfunctions), will have to wait if this stays that way.
- User temporary not being able to post/vote/send PMs Fixed overall database thoughput, should happen less already; we'll have to wait and see if it stays that way.
- Fairy Coins not being granted automatically after donation Fixed the transaction processor, waiting for the next donation to see it actually work, but it should now.
- Laaaaags Should be much better now since some database parameter adjustments, still working on it...
- Captcha images not loading - Errors in Art Gallery
