M3server What The Fuck Is Going On?!
 
2nd time in less then a month!

Can't get a hold of anyone, not good, not good at all.

Guess all of your accounts can kiss goodbye to their listings and trades today not to mention pissed off member that cancel when they can't log in.

I just told Murray to read this thread before he runs the linkbot for LOR tonight - we will be ignoring all the "no dns" errors if it's still down.

mikeyddddd 2004-12-20 10:51 AM

M3 is up now. My domains are accessible.

Cleo 2004-12-20 10:55 AM

Yeah I saw all the spam come into my mailbox so I knew they had comeback online.

Cleo 2004-12-20 10:59 AM

Nice… my LL bot says 14000+ sites down.

I can just tell my LL bot to rerun but my TGP bot deletes stuff. :(

Ohhh maybe my galleries from 6 months ago will now be floating on the top again.. silver lining to everything.

I am getting a little tired of it also. This is their response,


"We had a backbone issue between us and them this morning... This issue should not happen again as we are taking steps to be even more redundant then we currently are..."

But I like Cleo feel its getting old.

Cleo 2004-12-20 11:54 AM

Overall I'm very happy with them but stuff like this makes me really start to wonder about things.

I do think they need a way to at least let us know what is going on when there is a problem.

Knight 2004-12-20 12:26 PM

I would like to add to my earlier comment about M3, other than the outages lately I am a very satisfied customer. I have asked some awful dumb questions at times and the gang is always happy to take the time to explain things and help in anyway. So hopefully they will get things in order.

Cleo 2004-12-20 05:18 PM

Their tech support is first rate and anything that I've ever needed was taken care of right away.

I just hope this isn't something bad happening to them.

Robbo 2004-12-20 09:05 PM

Ditto that Cleo! I don`t know where else I would ever get direct assistance at 3am for trivial shit which has happened! (don`t try this at home)

cyberwurx has been there for me in the middle of the night on more than one ocassion when I had operater caused problems (I'm the operater)|zzzzzzzzz

Robbo 2004-12-20 11:31 PM

That`s always nice Pat! I don`t assume they`ve been around this long for lacking service either. I know a few people that have been with them for a while. I had called M3 actually just to leave a message one night and surprise someone picked up! hehe

Cleo 2004-12-20 11:47 PM

I can think of a few good hosts.

I also remember back when BW was like $7 a gig.

BW is cheap now so it is all about service and reliability now.

I get a little crazy when my server goes down. All I can think of is how current my backup is and what a fucking nightmare getting all my scripts working on a new server would be. Not to mention lost listings, trades, and all the lost income that goes with losing traffic.

You never really know if it is a few minute problem or if the data center has exploded and the fragments of what was your server are now raining down onto the crater where it once existed as a 24/7 money machine.

Robbo 2004-12-21 12:36 AM

Or if google just happened to be trying to spider you for that next big listing!?

LOL! So true.. your not the first one to be bitching about them.. see it on other boards as well.. customer support.. always beats cheap bandwidth..

ngb1959 2004-12-26 11:59 PM

Just woke up to find that server is down again.

Anyone else having a problem?

mist 2004-12-27 03:27 AM

Nope, I don't seem to have any downtime, I just checked my server graphs and couldn't find any downtime. And, Cleo's sig is working too.

Mist

ngb1959 2004-12-27 06:24 AM

It was down at the time I posted the previous reply and it is down again right now. But I just checked Cleo's site and her's is up.

Does anyone have a clue why my sites aren't coming up?

mist 2004-12-27 07:23 AM

Strange, have you contacted the support?

Mist

ngb1959 2005-02-11 04:37 AM

I sent tech support an email already. Does anyone know what this error is and what do I need to do to fix it?

Thanks.

Hmm just a few hours ago I sent an email to M3 checking on prices to move some of my sites there... Should I keep looking?

ngb1959 2005-02-11 05:02 AM

I don't know. I very rarely have problems with them and they are very easy to deal with.

Now, my main page comes up, but none of my other ones do.

http://www.dreamypleasures.com/

And if you click on a thumb on this page, the big picture doesn't show up.

This sucks.

Cleo 2005-02-11 07:41 AM

Looks like you images are corrupted, nothing to do with M3 Server, they are fine.

swedguy 2005-02-11 07:49 AM

Interesting. All your pages are white except result #1 in Google (all the cached versions looks fine).

Useless 2005-02-11 08:51 AM

Looks like a server hiccup that wiped out much of your data.

ngb1959 2005-02-11 09:14 AM

Just did a system restore. Hope this fixes it.

ngb1959 2005-02-11 09:44 AM

Fuckers.

System restore worked.

Now none of my sites are coming up.

Fuckers.

ngb1959 2005-02-11 09:52 AM

I uninstalled smart ftp and re-installed it.

It's working.

fuckers! ;)

ngb1959 2005-02-11 11:14 AM

Reply from support in case someone else has problems:

There was a problem with the primary system drive on
titan.simplecom.net. The problem did not cause any system failures that triggered
alarms, but was causing
erratic system behaviour in most services. The problem has been
corrected, and
will be closely monitored througout the day.

natalie 2005-02-13 04:34 PM

They didn't answer my sales query email that I wrote 3 days ago... |pokefun| oh well I just bought hosting at PhatServers where the majority of my sites will be moving. Except for a couple I have at Powerstorm.

stuveltje 2005-02-13 05:34 PM

since i am on the net i have paid hosting, (it takes an investment to earn) i use isprime, they are not the cheapest my longest downtime ever ws 30 minites, i can reach them 24hours a day a week on icq , they always answer and do their best, i have them now for more then 3 years and i can say i realy like them, same with aw stats they contact me thru icq and fixed all, i am just one lucky bastard and dont think of changing my host ever. |king| |pink

ngb1959 2005-03-07 10:44 PM

Down again!

PR_Tom 2005-03-07 10:49 PM

Yep, the whole host it seems :(

PR_Tom 2005-03-07 11:01 PM

dammit, I'm going to lose every archived listing I have :(:( I already had to pause my ad campaigns too arghhhhhh I hate this.

Cleo 2005-03-07 11:03 PM

I just got woken up by FoxyAngel because her site is down.

Yeah the whole host seems to be down, not good.

plateman 2005-03-07 11:13 PM

Dam cleo maybe it time to shop around or just a bad luck streak And That is the worst thing to happen to go down - like its hard enough to make sales when your up..

PR_Tom 2005-03-07 11:34 PM

It's been an hour now by my count :(

chaze 2005-03-07 11:49 PM

I have heard of a lot of weird things like this lately maybe it's not them and a global network fault? |yawn|

LadyB 2005-03-07 11:53 PM

This truly is a pain in the ass. There's no way to know if anyone is even working on it or not. |pissed|

btw.. hello everyone |hello|
