I vaguely recall doing using the Search function a couple of times and it would hang then 500 error. It could be coincidence but ...

I thought it was me too, Search or some other function.  A 500 error usually means a server problem, or a database problem (but this board isn't working on a database I believe).

I am truely sorry, I have been run ragged by clients and a wicked head cold, so it is taking me forever to get to transfering the site to another server to test.  AND I'm working on a pro bono site for teh Toronto Gameroom Show, so I am caught up in quite a bit right now.

But if its any consolation, I feel your pain!

I just called them up. I mentioned to them that it is unacceptable, and that my "clients" call it an ETERNAL server error.

Of course, I got a textbook answer... " we will investigate immediately and get back to youo today ".

And I bet that the answer I will get today (if I get one...) will be " server maintenance ".

Well, I've been trying all day to move the existing site to my server to test, and while I "can" get a new installation of the eBlah software (which is a year or two out of date)
to work ok, under certain circumstances it does 500 error inexplicably on me too .

That being said, the number of files in the existing installation is huge.  And the time required to convert the forum from eBlah to say PHPBBS, is going to be too large a comittment for me to take on right now.  I keep "adding on" to my pile, and I have to concentrate on work in hand since business has been so bad.

So for the moment, anyway, I am goign to say, let's try to stabilize eBlah mAACA.ORG where it is now, and possibly someone with more time than I can take advantage of my offer for hosting and carry forward with a transfer or conversion.

I wanted to get this done, but I just have literally run out of free time.

It would be a sad shame to lose the resource that is MAACA right now.  But it may be that the only way to successfully pull forward is to start fresh with a new and living Forum software installation (like PHP BBS - free or vBulletin - but that's $$$)

Sorry folks.

Wayne

MAACA has been so useful to so many people that we wouldn't want to see it down unless all the development and conversion plus testing  was done. Under construction would really suck. I would rather blame error 500 on the software and make due, personally. Thanks for trying to make it better Wayne.

People don't like to pay for something they had for free. That said, here's another appeal to anyone who is knowledgeable in this stuff to help us move forward to the next evolutionary step. In the meantime at least we know that MAACA could eventually be even better.

Be careful with software switches....I have seen it turn out to be a DISASTER.


My experience, I was a A.W. member since 2000, dropped it like a hot potato after the switch..... long live Q.W. (see link below)

"Verdict: the community prevailed in the end, held together like glue by an outdated, but extremely usable format which works, and allows all of Quattroworld’s users to maintain the forum architecture they grew accustomed to for so many years."
