    We'll be having some scheduled maintenance tonight in a few hours. The forums will be locked down and moved to a new server. We'll provide you with the IP you can add to your hosts file to switch over to the new server immediately.

    See you on the new server.

    EDIT: Postponed until tomorrow. The downtime should be very short and mostly depend on how long it takes for you to see the new server.

    Server maintenance COMPLETED with little to no issues. Thanks for your patience and cooperation!

    Is this a permanent move for the forums ?

    No, we'll be moving again when we get our new server.

    I was too tired. Not the best condition to be in when moving servers ;)

    Thank you for providing the new IP this time;)
    Maybe you could add a line for the mac users, because they have to run this command after adding the IP to the hosts-file:
    Code:
    dscacheutil -flushcache

    is plugins.bukkit.org working for anybody? It just drops me to the forum instead of in the special plugin list.

    Same with wiki.bukkit.org. :(

    Both of those sites are still on the old server. Due to a DNS misconfiguration they're pointing to the new server. I can only do something about this in about 4 hours. In the meantime, if you need to access those pages you'll have to setup a hosts entry pointing to 174.36.220.118. This will work fine until the 23rd, when our old box goes offline. However, for the wiki, you run the risk of seeing old content.

    Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

    I'm kind of a newbie, someone explain to me how to get to plugins.bukkit.org, if it's not a problem. I'm on a mac, if that helps.

    The DNS records for plugins.bukkit.org and wiki.bukkit.org have been fixed. However, we're working on moving both right now.

    Should of set a low TTL on them for the time being then.

    What kind of hardware is powering the site now?

    Also see you put the site behind varnish, nice.

    It's not gone, just not here right now.

    When I try to goto plugins.bukkit.org it dumps me to "Index of /". I'm sure you guys are working on it, thanks for the hard work! :)

  27. Congratulations on a successful move. As a server admin, I know how difficult that can be.

    so far, most things look good.. (haven't poked around much). seems pretty transparent for the casual user anyhow. Only I have noticed is the missing 'not getting any help' banner that was on the help forum posts. Not sure how effective it was, although it did seem like more users were starting w/ the necessary info than before.

    not a high priority.. just wanted to bring it to attention
