Message board up and running

Danny Stewart · #1 March 21, 2005, 11:48 PM

Well, most of yesterday and today have been spent converting our old phpBB into a brand new vBulletin message board. Then, though, after a failed attempt to upgrade PHP to a newer version, the entire site went down. Finally, I am pleased to announce the following things.

We are now running a 100% operational vBulletin message board.
We have transferred off of the old, dying server and onto a newer and more stable server.
We are running the latest versions of the Apache web server, PHP, and mySQL.
I am very, very tired.

Tell everyone you know (that's a member of Tetryon) where the new board is and how to access it! And let the posting begin.

Remember to tell people the steps they have to use to get to the Tetryon forums:

User CP
Miscellaneous
Group Memberships
U.S.S. Tetryon
Join Group

Thanks for all your support everyone! It means the world to me!

From what I can tell this board is pretty cool. I'm just going to have to get used to everything.

Welcome back, Brad. Yes, that's always the hardest part, getting used to it.

But I feel it was a worthwhile investment, based on the features of the board and how much I care about Tetryon and its community. That's the important thing.

I would have been back sooner. But when I tried to come on yesterday it said the page could not be found. So I went to usstetryon.com and it told me to come here.

I had a bit of a server crisis yesterday that took several hours to resolve properly. That's why you were getting the "page not found" error. We're all settled in now, though, so expect fewer bugs and server problems.

Hooray! hooray! Excellent work with the new board Danny, it's looking good.

Thank you, Ross. It's been a lot of work, but worth my while certainly. I hope you enjoy it.
