New real dedicated web server - and minor language updates

Posted on 03:12 by Unknown
I've thrown a few minor updates out, simply minor language updates. Some may be pushed out the updater, others now. I am trying not to saturate the system, but am trying to keep the latest build up.

I discovered yesterday that my little VPS was vastly underpowered. I had more resources with a shared server in fact. The traffic crippled the web server twice, forcing me to take create some restrictive firewall rules to keep it running for most of the world. Good news -- no more of that!

Immediately upon seeing the problem I ordered a real dedicated web server and began the transition. Within 4 hours the new server was fully operational and the DNS change began propagating. As of now most people will likely already be referencing the new server, though some may have to wait until this evening or later. Clearing your DNS cache and/or switching DNS servers may accelerate the transfer. That said, BOTH servers are fully operational so it shouldn't matter which you get to.

Note that I've had a handful of people tell me the Support area was done, but this seemed to be because people were still using the old URL to the month-gone IIS server (likely bookmarked). We no longer use the MerchantSecure.com service for SSL. Instead, we found that SSL certificate prices (at least non-wildcard) had gone down and purchased a SSL certificate for bitsum.com. Therefore, the Support area can be found at: https://bitsum.com/phplogin . Please note the missing 'www', else you'll get a certificate error since we couldn't afford a wildcard certificate.

Who did we go with? LunarPages. I've been impressed with their customer service and wide variety of hosting options. They are not the cheapest, but they are competitively prived and reliable.

So... everything should be good. Enjoy ;)
