A couple of hours ago I made RGL live again. Everything should be working if not leave a comment here or mail rgl-admins@randomness.org.uk. There is a slight problem with some characters being double encoded but apart from that its all good hopefully.

Well, I missed my self imposed deadline of getting RGL back last night ( Read more... )

Good news re the ongoing server issues - rjw1 will be racking (physically installing) a new server this afternoon. Full RGL service won't be back immediately, but he hopes to get that sorted out by Friday evening if not sooner ( Read more... )

So at about midnight last night I finally got a read only mirror up and running on http://mirror.london.randomness.org.uk.
I would have announced this earlier but as Kake said I'm a bit busy at work currently. Sorry about the delay.

Now to make the main site redirect to the mirror instead of giving an error message.

Having found a script with my hostname at rsync.net and then remembering my numeric user id I have restored and verified a backup of the database from yesterday morning. So the data is safe.

I hope to have a non-editable mirror running on an amazon ec2 instance up soon. Hopefully at some point this evening.

As you may have noticed, RGL is currently down. This is because nebula, the server it runs on, is having problems, and unfortunately rjw1 is in the middle of a very busy period at work so hasn't been able to sort it out yet. We're very sorry about this ( Read more... )
