Latest News about the "Server Hosting" Case (1/10/'19)

Posted by Merit Celaire on Thursday, January 10, 2019 - 01:35 PM

Hi there, everyone; quick posting to keep everyone in the know about what has been going on as of late from the "server hosting" side of things.

As you may already be aware by the "floated announcement" at this time, I'm still snagging the chances to complete the backup procedures for this entire site including the forum database. Only that right now, I'm currently "on break" right now with my "seasonal work obligations" just so that I can see about getting this posted to let you all know that I'm still around.

With that said, and as you may have also read, we've got some good news that our current site hosting services (which, of course, is VimlyHost) is not slated to shut down the server hosting this site after all. However, on the backend, the services for it are going to be restructed. Thankfully, at this time, our hosting account with them is currently safe since they managed to successfully move this site to a more stable server late last month.

To add to the news in said paragraph above: because of the events that plagued my being able to actually update this site (especially in terms of adding blog entries) and my filing numerous support tickets to have said matters addressed, I have been approached by two personal contacts also in relation to VimlyHost: one via email correspondence and another via our music operation's Discord Portal. They state that they are going to make sure along with myself that events like what I've encountered as of late will not happen again in the long run, especially as we begin this 2019 year.

As soon as backup procedures are done (both regarding the site itself, and my music operations materials in general including the files themselves), we can finally see about getting back to normal operations for this place. This has been a turbulent first ten days, but we're getting through this in earnest. Hang in there, everyone.

As always, if you have any additional questions regarding this case at hand, please do not hesitate to send me an email. Thanks, all.

Still Taking Music Operations Management Suggestions for 2019

Posted by Merit Celaire on Friday, January 4, 2019 - 01:13 PM

Although the top priority right now for me at this time is to get the "server hosting matters" resolved in a timely manner before later this month, this is also a quick heads-up/reminder to you all that I am still taking music operations management suggestions for the course of this 2019 year. I would usually have a forum topic posted at this point, but since the "forum portal" area is currently closed, the best course of action for you folks to take is by contacting me via our email form.

Please note that there is absolutely no guarantee that every suggestion submitted to me via this form will be honored; however, rest assured that I'll invesitage every possibility to see if it's something that should be looked into forward in the months to come.

Thanks in advance once more for your support of these music operations themsevles, everyone; looking forward to hearing from you all shortly with those 2019 music operations management suggestions themselves. I'm gone for now.

"Forum Portal" Section Currently Closed Due To Server Resolution Matters

Posted by Merit Celaire on Thursday, January 3, 2019 - 03:37 PM

Hi there, everyone; just a heads-up to you all that due to my making preparations to resolve the server hosting matters that have been explained in this posting yesterday, the "Forum Portal" area of this website is currently closed at this time. No ETA has been set on when it will get back in action again after the server hosting situations have been dealt with.

Once again, many apologies for the inconveniences there; in the meantime, if you do need to get in contact with me regarding any inquiries that are in relation to these music operations as a whole, you're able to reach me via email form, IRC (EsperNet), Twitter, or our Discord. We appreciate your understanding.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: Planned Hosting Server Move Later This Month

Posted by Merit Celaire on Wednesday, January 2, 2019 - 02:09 PM

Hi there, everyone; first of all, let me definitely apologize for the site itself being down for like the past few days (again), especially as we start a brand new year for these music operations as a whole. And although I am eager to tackle the challenges that will be facing us for 2019, our first "major challenge" (or should I say... "roadblock") has been handed down to us, and it's not the news that any of us wanted to hear on the very first days of this new year.

The situation at hand: I have been informed by the VimlyHost administration that due to unforseen circumstances beyond their control, the services that have been hosting this site for almost one year are currently being planned to be shut down later this month (more specifically, the shutdown date is slated for January 27, 2019).

At this time as I write this entry, I've been starting to do all necessary procedures to make sure the entire site (and forum database) are current and backed up so that when a new web hosting service candidate has been chosen (hopefully before the VimlyHost service shutdown date), the "transfer process" can be deal with barring any problems in the process. 

Believe me, friends, this news itself of the VimlyHost service shutdown puts a literal damper in my overall groove as I was just starting to make preparations to plan for what new Super Nintendo music style arrangement candidates featuring modern Super Mario (and branched) will be targeted for this year. But before that can be deal with, I have to focus on resolving the "site hosting" matters on all fronts before January 27th hits.

Once again, I deeply apologize for any inconveniences this may have caused you faithful friends and visitors once more. But we'll definitely get through this; I'm determined to make sure that we're still in this thing for our music operation's 9th anniversary which is coming up during the course of February. As always, I'll keep you all posted on any new developments as they happen. Stay tuned.

P.S.: At this time, thankfully I was able to log on to this main website's blog system so that I could finally post this entry; there are still some technical difficulties that are preventing me from logging in to the hosting account on the backend. Once I finish write and post this entry, I'll be in contact with the VimlyHost administration again to get to the bottom of yet another annoying barricade. Once again, your patience and understanding is greatly appreciated at this time. Thanks, all.
