Oh brilliant. Another downtime, only 2 days after the last one?

We may need to consider moving host or the like if Provision Host won't at least suggest a few fixes to Stuffman and Strafe in a timely manner.

I would too suggest a different host, unless a solution is possible, of course. It's becoming a bit of a pain that it keeps going down.

Oh, and ep, that super lag I had before, with the screen tearing, apparently that was a one time thing. Last time I went on, I was able to use short again. MC must have had a little hiccup or something. :derp:

Earlier today we had a conflict due to some miscommunication. And although strafe solved it, Ive created an unofficial banner which can be found in my sig which gives you an idea of what to expect when you contract with ep or px :V

Or it was something else that was running on your system such as antivirus scans.

Brilliantly done. Let's see if they will light it themselves appropriately now. :V

PX's revocation would largely be marked by a heavily burnt forest and maybe a few torched houses too, and his contracts...what contracts? I just undo my work....

This is hilarious.

Not antivirus scan. It says it didn't run near that time. I could have been something else, but I wouldn't know what that would be, I don't normally have anything running that would cause stuff like this. :wat:

I may have to make separate banners then :V THIS IS PX AFTER ALL. I'll whip up something later but I aint gonna change my sig again too lazy :derp:

Edit: Come to think of it PX doesnt even have a committee does he? He just complains about bad lighting am i rite? hehe i got an idea for this then :3

No need to - this is plenty and will fill in for the job. Gets the point across, and moreover PX did do similar things back in Rukinville (he had camp there, lighting was a major issue and thus he burned down the nearby forest as a way to insist more lighting and undo part of the work there).

Dallas, TX, going by the server IP and GeoTool. :V

Better question to ask would be 'what the hell's going on with the server that led to these increasingly frequent downtimes?'

Strafe poured lava. It reached the server core.

*sigh* Support Ticket has been submitted. This is getting a bit irritating. Isn't this the third time this week?

Anyway, we're getting close to the end of our first month with Provision Host. Stuffman and I will need to discuss our next plan of action...

DX7.EP · « **Reply #734 on:** August 29, 2011, 10:57:33 AM »

...and almost 4 hours later, we're still down.

A server host move is probably a good idea, preferably one that has 24/7 support and has quick response turnaround times, as well as a little more leg room for mods.

Dr.Strafe · « **Reply #735 on:** August 29, 2011, 11:28:49 AM »

I can access the server files, therefore the server itself is working fine. The problem seems to be with the MCMyAdmin control panel that keeps crashing. Since we cannot access the control panel, we cannot bring the game server back up. Roughly a week ago, MCMA had some kind of update. Perhaps that is the cause to all of this instability.

What I'm saying is that this probably isn't Provision Host's fault. I've been rather pleased with this server thus far, and I hope that this situation will work itself out sometime soon. I'm not really looking forward to another server switch, although the option is always available. If we end up having to move anyway, then I'm pretty sure that we'll wait for 1.8 to hit first. Our time with Provision Host will end within the first week of September, and Notch says that 1.8 will come out in a couple weeks from now. As for now, I think we'll just ride out our time with this host, hoping that we can iron out these MCMA issues.

In other news, I apologize that the Livefeed map is still not working properly. Honestly, I'm stumped on how to fix that without having to reinstall the damn thing. :derp:

Nicole Artist · « **Reply #736 on:** August 29, 2011, 05:21:05 PM »

Well, sunny has an idea, and would like add on ideas and support, for, ATLANTIS
right now this is all I can throw at faces
http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll181/shinypachirisu/atlantis.jpg
hopefully you can understand my mess. the left side is the library there, bottom left enterance, and top right ideas for other spots
so really, just posting. opinions?

DX7.EP · « **Reply #737 on:** August 29, 2011, 05:28:23 PM »

I love the design for the library. Needs blue wool floor too for added effect.

Plxel art may need to be downsized to fit.

I'd also suggest an airlock system made out of pistons and redstone, because Cadrin has one already at his own (spongeless) underwater base. Have to spread it around!

blue carpet? I was going for a bit of a mixed theme, but that can work too.
of course the pixle art needs to be downsized XD
origonally the enterance was going to be on the surface with a bridge to it, the upper area being wood, underwater area being glass, and pissible in ground area being stone, just to have a veriety of material.

DAMMIT. I wake up and log in. Everything is fine.

I reply to the Support Ticket, thanking them for restarting the server, AND THEN THE SERVER CRASHES WITHIN ONE MINUTE.

* Dr.Strafe is on the case

Next itll close every 2 hours :derp:
THEN EVERY 5 MINUTES
I sware the server going down keeps comming more and more often

Dr.Strafe · « **Reply #743 on:** August 29, 2011, 09:38:59 PM »

Oh yeah. This isn't annoying AT ALL.

I submitted a new ticket claiming that the server crashed yet again just minutes earlier. While waiting for a response, I notice that their "Live Chat" feature is online. I send them a message on that as well, hoping for a more expedient reply than the last crash. After 45 minutes of patiently waiting for a response: "Live Chat is not available. Please submit a ticket."

I guess we're still waiting for a reply, people. Sorry that they've got their heads up their asses at the moment. :V

EDIT- Okay, people. The server is back online again! I guess excessive bitching did the trick. :V I'll still be in communication with them to see what else develops.

EDIT 2- Finally managed to update MCMA for the server. My previous attempts were :derp:. Hopefully this issue can finally be put to rest so we can enjoy our game time

Stuffman · « **Reply #744 on:** August 29, 2011, 10:30:09 PM »

Alright, we'll see if having MCMA updated fixes the problem. If not we'll have to horse around with our plugins, probably.

I'm trying to think what changes over time that would make MCMA more unstable. I know the server log has gotten unpleasantly large, for one thing.

LogBlock shouldn't be keeping any data older than 7 days so that shouldn't be a problem. The map doesn't look like it's been expanded beyond comfortable limits either.

Dr.Strafe · « **Reply #745 on:** August 30, 2011, 12:05:10 AM »

And there goes my stuff...AGAIN This is like the 6th time its happened :derp:

Stuffman · « **Reply #749 on:** August 30, 2011, 12:08:28 AM »

I'm DLing the server log and I'm gonna delete it off the server once that's done. It's something to try I guess. It IS a 64 MB text file :V

While I'm at it I'm gonna clear off dynmap. Prepare for another blackout, but at least it'll start working normally again.
