Evening Updates and Downtime

Railroad.net will be undergoing a series of version updates this evening. Browsing many be temporarily disrupted, especially during the initial large version updates.

A follow up will be posted when complete.

Test

Upgrade Complete.

What did you do with antique railroad.net man???

Looks good so far though

The theme gets reset every time you upgrade. I have to rebuild the theme.

Wanted to get the important stuff working first.

Here I was wondering "It's sliiightly different... was there an update to things?"

And sure enough, there was. Although, I wish it was a bit more compact. Too bad there's not a way to choose the theme...

A new theme is coming.

Wow. Who knew? It's an excellent look, lots more tools now (sorting, etc.). Excellent job, Greg.

The previous approach seemed to be to not change anything, i.e. run the oldest versions possible. Which makes upgrading really painful, lol

No doubt. At least for Greg lol. He's the tech guy! He started early this afternoon. More changes coming. The 503 errors should ease now.

surprising that they have kept the database online and site up without data loss, pointer loss, or going into "read-only" mode.

Looks like still running some version of phpbb 3.x.

Getting "Port 80" 503 errors at times,server issue?

It's so round.

It'll take a while to get used to

The downtime is complete.
