some havnt upgraded yet.

also, with whole master server going down there wont be so many people in the servers. you might find it in the empty server list.

The server was restarted but crashed again. Looks like we'll be switching on the back up server.



For now we have returned DNS back to the temporary servers. Master server still should work for most people or will again soon.

This ^

Thanks for the info, did not see that

Victor is setting up a new web server, because the old one crashed very soon after being restarted.

Copying all the backups and making sure everything works before we switch back to normal on the new server.

Wouldn't like to give an estimate but maybe 1, 2, 3 hours...

Superb!
Was it a natural crash (age, technical failure etc) or an attack (DDOS) which crashed it all?

Anyway, I'll be watching that porn meanwhile so I'm fine!

Probably age.

Currently we are bringing all services back up again. All website should now work.
The only thing not yet working is skins upload and download. I'm working on this still. But I hope that those will be working later tonight as well.

a lot of my mates was bothered why skins download wasn't working.
i just told them that lfsworld.net is down in temporary but seems they don't believe until the whole master server is down.

oh well good luck vic fixing the whole thing

There doesn't appear to be recent any stats on LFSWorld since the main services came back up.

not sure, but I think you mean stats from last night and daytime? Yeah those are lost.
Stats are recording again now though, I can see them being processed.

Between 1700 and 1800 GMT which would count as day I suppose. It has recorded later races though so all is well.
