Title: And... we are back
Post by: Snowcone on January 30, 2008, 04:55:54 PM: I honestly wish I could tell you what has been wrong with the site for the last 24-36 hours, but I really don't know. What I do know is that we are back online and thank heavens for that. My apologies to everyone that was trying to get some covers, please proceed.

Yeah, that was definitely a weird coincidence.

Post by: Snowcone on January 31, 2008, 02:21:29 AM: Something is going on with our forum software and it's taking our db down. I am going to upgrade it tomorrow and see if that fixes the issue.
Title: Re: And... we are back
Post by: Snowcone on February 01, 2008, 11:20:28 AM: Anymore issues so far?
Title: Re: And... we are back
Post by: tiktektak on February 01, 2008, 01:23:38 PM: No problems here for now....

EDIT: Was down again.... Is our host constantly overloaded?

EDIT2: The admin stuff still isn't working... Suppose that will take some more time....

Post by: daminion on February 02, 2008, 09:46:27 AM: I'm having problems actually downloading a cover. The file downloads, and has the correct name, but it's not an image file.

When I open it with Notepad I see:

Warning: fopen(/home/snackbar/public_html/thecoverproject/images/covers/wii_wiisports_12.jpg) [<a href='function.fopen'>function.fopen</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /mnt/gs01/herd03/34992/domains/thecoverproject.net/html/download_cover.php on line 98

Ditto here. I was wondering why it downloaded so quickly, it's only 345 bytes.

Post by: pasaitoh on February 03, 2008, 02:54:13 PM: Yup same problem 353 byte files that aren't images :(

Post by: nattydread on February 04, 2008, 09:24:57 AM: I'm having the same problem. I thought it was just the one cover I tried but tried several and none of them are downloading.....

Post by: Snowcone on February 04, 2008, 09:54:33 AM: I'll get it fixed this morning.
Title: Re: And... we are back
Post by: Snowcone on February 04, 2008, 10:43:52 AM: Everything should be back to normal guys.
Title: Re: And... we are back
Post by: Snowcone on February 04, 2008, 11:16:17 AM: Admin stuff is fixed as well.
Title: Re: And... we are back
Post by: antony30bc on February 04, 2008, 07:59:51 PM: I cant seem to upload, at least not Raws. It sits and spins a bit then takes me back to the original form with the fields emptied.

Just got Dragon Warrior IV and Ninja Gaiden 3 scanned and itching to upload.

Post by: Snowcone on February 04, 2008, 09:54:25 PM: Let me look at it.
Title: Re: And... we are back
Post by: Snowcone on February 04, 2008, 09:55:51 PM: Try again.
Title: Re: And... we are back
Post by: antony30bc on February 04, 2008, 10:12:59 PM: No Joy. First round was a 500 internal error, second round was same as original problem.

Let me check it. There is something wrong with the db config. I am looking into it.
Title: Re: And... we are back
Post by: antony30bc on February 05, 2008, 08:25:29 PM: I still cannot upload my Raws. Is there a smaller file size limitation then there was? My raws are done at 600 DPI so they are fairly large.

I uploaded them to one of my own servers if you want to transfer them over.

Post by: Snowcone on February 05, 2008, 10:36:38 PM: What size are they? I'll have to check our max file size on the new host and adjust accordingly. Likewise, you probably just need to be using an FTP acct.
Title: Re: And... we are back
Post by: antony30bc on February 06, 2008, 09:20:43 AM: Between 9 and 15 meg, I checked the other raws I have uploaded and they were within the same range.

Ive been working on it. There is some goofy configuration setting that I can't find.
