Hang on folks, we should be upgrading the forum today. Please be patient, as it may be offline or buggy for a bit.

Woo-hoo!! Lets see if we can cut/paste images right into postings in the new forum...

This will be groovy baby

So where is it? What time is the server getting rebooted?

[john]

I dunno, I'm waiting myself! They are a little baqcked up with installs right now.

[Cloud9]

Looks the same to me.... upgrade done?

[john]

It will look much different, as soon as it is installed the template will not look like MyFolsom.com. I of course have to change this, but it may take a couple of days for me to figure out.

Does that mean that we'll be posting off the interim template until you make edits and reconfigure?

[john]

Yes, it will look really generic, I really don't know what it will look like. However the backend database is the same so I don't think we'll lose posts.

As soon as it's up I can start playing with it. Good news is, they started playing with it this morning and asking questions. Bad news is, I saw in the email that they are based out of the UK! (Which means it may be tomorrow before it is upgraded... *sigh*).

Keep your fingers crossed, you never know.

What's the backend database for this? Linux based? Oracle? DB2? Informix? Don't tell me it's a Microsoft product or I'll throw up....

It's a PHP web forum so it might just be mySQL.

Right you are!

[Cloud9]

Good... I guess I can keep posting then...

[Cloud9]

Boy, that's one slow upgrade....

[john]

Tell me about it, I don't know what the holdup is.
