Question.. not issue.. lol.

When the site navigated to the "Under Construction" page.. are you updating and locking the site down?

Or is it a backup routine?

Or something else?

Yes.. Curiosity skinned and killed thy cat.. lol.

I'm back "home" in Colorado now and kind of avoided the site for a good deal of the weekend and while I drove. So yeah it was a surprise to see the site under construction.

I nearly shat myself when I clicked PackersHome and saw UNDER CONSTRUCTION. I thought, dammit Shawn, what you doin ... wait, this is why I didn't pass out any admin. Then thought "dammit kevin what did YOU do!!!". haha

The software has an auto update and it caused the site to be slow for a period while it was downloading it and attempting to install/upgrade. I disabled it and that's how the site is "back".

NEAT HUH!?!?

Well I noticed it a couple of times over the weekend and I thought to myself.. Kevin enjoy your vacation.. lol.

Hence why I asked the question.. I thought maybe there was a backup routine and maybe the scheduled needed to be adjusted or disabled altogether for a less intrusive method away from taking the site down.

More a technical question on the platform design.

I have been not so patiently waiting all morning.
Wondering why you couldn't do this at a reasonable time- say 2-3 in the morning like all the other techies.

Interesting, did it happen at a specific time that you can recall?

Haha, jerk! :P


I'm going to be setting up a mirror site that (hopefully) Shawn and I will be poking around with prior to making changes to this site.

PackersBeta.com or SilentShouting.com will be the test site.

I failed to record the times.. as I was scurrying about this weekend involved in about what seemed like a 100 projects.

I am in 100% agreement on this approach.. mirrored data included so tests can be ran against similar data(posts).

And since I still have the tools and data to do another import, that won't be an issue. I could probably just do a copy back of the live DB as well, which would probably be faster.

yes I am.
