HEFA Forum Problems

Unread post by RocketManRC » Fri Dec 15, 2017 6:20 am

The forums were down yesterday due to an upgrade on the server that the host provider carried out on Wednesday night. The problem is that the software that we use (phpBB) is getting long in the tooth (vintage 2012). Updating to a current version is not trivial and there is a lot of data to back up and potentially move around.

I have figured out a quick fix for now but eventually I will have to do the upgrade...

BTW another reason for this new topic is to make sure phpBB is still working!
