I tried to get on EO at 1942 tonight and I got a crap load of interesting database errors.

Just curious, what happened??

Greg,

We are doing a combination of upgrades to the forum. We are also rolling out our iPad app. We are still trouble shooting these bugs. Please let us know if you continue to have any problems.

We apologize for the inconvenience. :cool:

I have not been able to connect for a hour or so at different times today. I have also not been able to post more than once without getting bounced out.

Hey Lawrence, just a suggestion from someone who does this a lot, you should take test the upgrade off line by using a full code backup and truncated db first and then upgrade in the slow times when the bugs are worked out.

We do all our upgrades on our dev server. Something happens though when 900-1400 people all access the site at once. :eek:

They're working on it. We really do have a great team at EO central. :)

I'm not doubting your team, but if you are using your dev server, that's a real problem.

Don't you stress the upgrade before you make it live?

I'm only suggestion this because of what I and others who I work with do for other forums.
