It's one of the reasons behind the upgrade along with a few other changes but we'll probably spend at least the next week testing the upgrade on the test server before I upgrade this one in the early hours of next Sunday (28th) morning - assuming we have no major issues.

Cheers

Successfully completed the cloning of the two servers and only half hour over time.

This server may run a little slow this morning as the RAID array resynchronises itself but that shouldn't take long.

We will now get stuck into the upgrade for the test server.

Cheers
Russ

Not a great issue, but having been in the game for a while I thought I'd mention it in the hope it may help others.. For the past few days I have been having Proxy errors when clicking forum links.

Is this happening for anyone else? has been happening on my Lappy and my mobile..

They are very generic "proxy server could not handle the request GET http://.......
Apache server at www.aff.com.au Port 3128

I have done the usual clear cache, cookies, flushdns, etc but the issues persist.. And no, I dont use a proxy, nor does my ISP (Telstra 3G, Bigpond, TID and ECN connections) If I reload the page it loads fine..

aff.com.au isn't our domain name and we don't use that port for Apache so something is wrong with the proxy server you are using.
