Well, I don;t know about you all, but this CoLocation thing scares me a bit
 
So, I wake up today to a somewhat scary email, about colo I gather being sold to mojohost.

I am not sure what to think or expect, frankly.

Important news about your colo-cation.com web hosting account

I know I have a shitty little small account, but, I felt safe knowing Chris was back there somewhere.

Am I the first to post about this here?

Cleo 2013-09-05 07:13 PM

Ditto

On the plus Chris was just one person and if Chris got sick or worse there wouldn't have been anyone to manage his host. Mojo is a host with multiple people and a good reputation.

Just not sure if our prices and service will change. I see on their plans that backup are optional. I backup most of my servers but there are things that I can't backup.

Toby 2013-09-05 07:32 PM

I've been hosting with Mojo for years, very reliable, first rate support.

Greenguy 2013-09-05 08:02 PM

I've heard nothing but good things about Mojo & I know Brad is a good guy, so I'm not worried |thumb

JustRobert 2013-09-05 10:35 PM

At first this freaked me out but he says it's a merger but ends with a thank you and good luck so what is it really?

I wished that sparky would of come on here and given a bit more info like who do I pay for last month???

Guess I will just pay Davies today and hope this is correct.

**Edit** Guess I wait since I logged into my account and there is no billing summary in there and a balance of $0.00 or no money due (at this time).

Everything seems to be working except my bandwidth graph.

Fonz 2013-09-06 07:21 AM

Fuck it seem. I can't access colo-cation.com. Must be to the same servers JuicyAds is one, can't access their site either for months now :(
How the hell am I supposed to print out my invoices now?

Have you tried using different DNS on your computer?
Try Google DNS
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
or
Open DNS
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220

colo-cation.com was my third hosting service and the best of it all. I kinda was hoping it will be the last :) I still owe Chris last month of hosting due to problems with my debit card. Right now I too see balance 0.00 which I'm sure will be fixed soon |huh
I would just like to know few things;

-if we are to stay with the old (well it's pretty new) control panel or there will be also changes to user interface towards mojohost look ?

-pricewise vs features for that price changes if any, I'm on a low budget plan with Chris but I had almost no restrictions on bandtwith and hard drive space, not that I needed it all?

-unlimited ip's, domains, emails, databases etc etc ...

-also tech support question, Chris was always very helpful regarding coding problems used on my scripts, What can we expect from tech support now

Chris is one of the smartest people here so I'm sure he knows what he is doing. Best of luck to you Chris and thanks for the stuff.

It seems like a bit of my previous post got lost but you managed to understand me anyway :)
But that DNS thing doesn't seem to work. Maybe my cache needs to clear first...

Cleo 2013-09-06 09:29 PM

B&W stats are working :)

Fonz
Depending on your setup the DNS may need to be put in your router or computer.

JustRobert 2013-09-07 01:50 AM

I'm hoping this is a simple merger because Chris has no time for tech and that everything else stays exactly the same, fingers are crossed.

Tommy 2013-09-08 07:43 AM

I have some older scripts and when i first moved here it took a bit of work for chris to move everything and we sort of became close friends .. I hope he is still gonna be around .. I almost feel like I am in mourning a bit .. I am gonna miss him

on the other hand I got a few problems I would have pushed to get straightened out if I knew this was gonna happen...
I got a feeling someone over at Mojo is looking at my server saying WTF :)

Greenguy 2013-09-08 09:08 AM

I've already informed cd34 that I will still be bugging him when I need some tech support. Of course, I'll pay him for his time, but at a VERY discounted rate :D

Cleo 2013-09-09 10:47 AM

Still dealing with getting my BW graph to work. It worked a few hours and then died again. Someone named Paul is taking care of it and said that the finally issues should be cleared up today.

Tommy 2013-09-09 11:47 AM

The more I think about it the I am a little panicked by this

pc 2013-09-09 04:24 PM

There are more bugs than I thought. Yesterday I added two new domains and apparently they can't see them from their end. ? |huh among other few errors that I've stumped.

I can not add a new domain as well. |huh

Cleo 2013-09-10 09:43 AM

Bandwidth stats are still not working :(

JustRobert 2013-09-10 11:41 AM

At this moment everything seems to be ok on my end except for that bandwidth stats thing I never looked at.

Still have fingers crossed that these little bugs will be fixed and everything will look and act just like it use to or I may have to move everything again.

I usually take a quick look at my BW graph each day to get an idea of my total traffic for the day. It's not a big thing but it would be nice if it was working.

Dr Bizzaro 2013-09-11 08:58 AM

After the move, some PHP coding broke on almost every site I have hosted there.
