Re: Why Is AFF Going Down EVERY NIGHT?

It's a server thing. GNC goes down as does www.apostolic.net

They are hosting us so whatever they are doing with their servers it affects us. Perhaps they are doing server upgrades

This is a funny story. I lived in a pastor's home some years ago. He didn't allow reading at the table. One morning I was tilting my head to read a cereal box. I heard him clear his throat.

When I moved out he asked what I liked the best about my new place - I said, "I get to read at the dinner table."

As I said, they host us.

Most web pages are on some hosting companies shared server. This means that if you have a lot of user traffic it will crawl to a halt.

If you are a business owner or running a web business and you make websites for others you might lease or rent a dedicated server. That server is "all yours" and in that case you might host several websites on that server. Think of servers like this....there is some provider somewhere that has a room full of computers all connected to the internet. On some of those servers they host many websites. They have then some other servers they can lease to you to do the same.

In order to lease or rent our own server it would cost a LOT of money.

John Atkinson was kind enough to host us on one of his servers. I'm sure he's doing all he can to get the problems fixed.

However, If you're interested in purchasing a server for AFF to be hosted on-- I know where there's one available at a great price-- I just don't plan on draining what savings I have to purchase one.

Every single night? This is something new, Prax. Up until a week ago this wasn't happening every night. If they have to do server upgrades every night they should have the most up to date server on the internet by now.

Re: Why Is AFF Going Down EVERY NIGHT?

The fact that they ARE happening at night routinely should be a good indication that there is something happening server side.

Re: Why Is AFF Going Down EVERY NIGHT?

I have talked with Bro. A and the server was being hacked at night - he added some super dubber hack blocker that causes it to be down each early morning from 1:30 - 7:30 a.m.

He's still working to iron out the bugs, but protect us from hackers.

Please be patient.

LOL!!! I would have had to live on the street. Reading while I am eating is one of my pleasures in life. Now if there are other people at the table I don't do it as I also enjoy conversation but I have to have something to read (usually a magazine or newspaper) if I am eating alone.
