Server Upgrade Update |
2016-01-14 |
Firstly, I'd like to welcome all the new users we're seeing daily! Glad to have you here! Please do familiarize yourself with the Terms of Service and Content Guidelines. This IS a moderated archive. Server Upgrade Update There are some issues, which I'm sure you'll have noticed. First of all, when we attempted to upgrade one of the core languages a little bit more (after prepping the site files for it), it made visible some big issues that were already there with upgrading php from 5.1 to 5.3. When we went to 5.4, and then reverted back, the issues that were there stayed there and visible. So,this meant a complete rewrite of the file which shows the chapter data itself. Between Manta2g and myself, that was 30 hours combined, on the 12th. Just to get that part working again. In the process of doing that, there were some things we've not added back yet. This is TEMPORARY.
Will be working on restoring:
Understand that with the code stuff, I defer to Manta in this (just as she does with me for the database). I will certainly give it my best effort, but any changes I make will not go live until she's had a chance to go over them. We don't want to break things all over again. Odd characters, (diamonds instead of apostrophes as an example) are the result of the database having been changed to utf8 encoding when mysql was updated as part of the server upgrade. Utf8 is the default for later versions of mysql. For the moment, in your browser settings, change the encoding of the page to utf8 from whatever your browser has defaulted to. To completely fix this I have to do a couple things. First, anywhere any header commands reference charset, I'll change that for utf8. Secondly, I have to convert the data from what was default before (latin1) TO utf8. As the database is 9.3GB, this is going to be time consuming. Further, I have to be very, very careful in that I don't scramble anything when I do this. I'll be doing the conversion table by table. Thank you for your continuing patience!
Please remember that the authors you read do like to hear from you! Leave them a review or two, and let them know how they're doing! (yes, I know, I'll get this fixed first) DemonGoddess061 |
