Migration is complete.. I think?

Post by **FishPants** » Mon Oct 05, 2020 3:08 pm

If you are here, this is the new server. SSL certificate still needs to be moved over, and I'm sure there's lots of other work to be done.

If you are getting any kind of weird authentication issues/form submission errors that may come down to cookies - clear em. Shouldn't need to, but if you get stuck please do so.

I'm going to keep an eye on this, but for now I have my day job going on - this seems to be back online so there's that. Ends up old dogs aren't dumb assholes .... wait is that a saying or just what my wife calls me?

Looking good boss. Thanks for all the work and kicking the tires!

Huh I'm not sure how, but the cert is here and active.. I must do admin work in my sleep now.

That show does a fantastic job of making me very uncomfortable. Dude's obviously full of crazy good talent and his physical comedy is off the chart. Can't watch.

I have no doubt the mail server isn't relaying properly yet -- and that may take a few days. I frigging hate troubleshooting postfix.

Plus MX records are often protected a little bit more than say A records. It'll probably just take time to propagate.

It looks like auto redirection to https isn't active, though. I somehow managed to connect with http and initially thought the cert was non-functional.

Thank you for all the hard work! Everything critical looks like it came through perfectly.

CP or USPS?

I think I just fixed emails.. I think. At least the "test email" button in the admin panel showed up in my inbox so there's that.

Great job FP. Probably 100% the placebo effect, but the board feels extra snappy to me these last few days.

Post by **FishPants** » Thu Oct 08, 2020 11:19 am

Good to hear it's a positive move so far, and I agree the site is faster.

I've now confirmed that local backups as well as S3 backups are tested successfully, and I've scheduled them nightly to run. That was stressing me out that we didn't have backups running with the board moved, but for some reason I was running into an event scheduler error with Mysqldump which seemed to be from moving from Mysql 5.6 to MaridaDB v10. Anyways I left it after making my brain hurt around the tasks required to eliminate the error... and the next day all errors are clear and backups running. Weird.

So, I think we are done migrating. Anything broken for anyone else or can I unsticky this and have a pepsi?

Seeing an off and on slow load of threads and editing. I click and wait about 10 sec sometimes.

Saw that mysqld was using 400% CPU (ok so not sure how that would be possible) -- changed a few config settings, cycled it, updated phpBB to the latest version.. let me know if you see slowness again. This server has no business being slow!

It was slow this morning (I assumed it was me) but it's good now.

I know that I have a high live data server that the CPU freaks on from antivirus which needed to be tweaked, though it's a windows box. (Also the tweaking of the AV slowed down my backups, which I have yet to get resolved with either the backup provider of the AV provider. Harumph)

Seems zippy now. I was also someone that was seeing weird lag, but it doesn't appear to be happening now.

Daehawk · Post by **Daehawk** » Mon Oct 12, 2020 3:17 pm

Very sorry but theres still a very random off and on slow lag to my click to the time the thread opens. Not as bad though. Im not complaining btw. Id feel stupid complaining on something I cant contribute money to yet . Just a info post.
