+trippy1976 Posted September 29, 2003 Posted September 29, 2003 appears to be having issues... They are working on them I guess. No ETA. -------- trippy1976 - Team KKF2A Assimilating golf balls - one geocache at a time. Quote
+Sandrich Posted September 29, 2003 Posted September 29, 2003 I have been trying since about 10am this morning. (As opposed to 10am tonight?) Which also explains why the MiGO patch in our sigs isn't coming thu. Quote
+olepaint & co Posted September 29, 2003 Posted September 29, 2003 Thank goodness I found out that it was the MiGo site I wa blaming my sad old computer. Kicking it was my next move but I checked in here first. Sorry MiGo is down but my computer is grateful that I dicovered the real problem lies elsewhere. Hope it is up and running soon so we can discuss any last minute details of the great Fall Fun Day this weekend. Quote
+Waterfall Posted September 29, 2003 Posted September 29, 2003 Hey if you all need any help getting it up and running let me know... I have acess to resorces to get things done.... Html, programming, database design ect..... mark.. email me at mark@draytonwoods.com Quote
+trashcan Posted September 29, 2003 Posted September 29, 2003 I just needed a fix so here I am. The site is down and Sat is still a few days away...See you all there... Quote
+trippy1976 Posted September 29, 2003 Posted September 29, 2003 Keep your eyes here for updates. I have been in touch with the host and they are 'working on it' in the words of Jeremy. I hope they work fast. Keep your fingers crossed... otherwise it's going to be a quite week in MiGO -------- trippy1976 - Team KKF2A Assimilating golf balls - one geocache at a time. Quote

+TheDukesofWatrousville Posted September 29, 2003 Posted September 29, 2003 That's a bummer. I've been trying to get on the site all day. Hope they get it fixed soon so I can get a "fix." TheDukesofWatrousville~ Cody, Nikki, Duke and Kia ~ the Geo-Mutts Quote

+datum Posted October 3, 2003 Posted October 3, 2003 Thanks but I’m in the Cadillac area this weekend. Will try the MIGO site Monday and contact you if there still is a problem. Hope you catch a break from the rain for the event. Have GPSr - Will Travel Quote

opie744 Posted October 12, 2003 Posted October 12, 2003 Today is Oct, 12 I s anyone else having problems getting onto the Migo site??? Just wondered if it was me or the home site. Quote
+Waterfall Posted October 12, 2003 Posted October 12, 2003 They seem to be having some on again and off again issues: Quote
+Smitherington Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 I seem to be unable to get in again today to the MIGO site. Don't know if it is me or if it is the web site. I have tried three times and get the message 'Unable to access' or some such message. Quote
+trippy1976 Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 It's not you. I can't express in under 5000 words my frustration with dot5 our host. I'd just like to say that dot5, our host, has been experiencing a problem with our web server. dot5hosting.com, our host, has provided us miserable service for the past month. Our host, dot5, has been ignoring my requests for account credit. Also dot5 (our host) has not communicated downtime notifications to me satisfactorily. We are in the process of moving. Probably. But it takes some finesse to do it without significant downtime. It will be a 30-60 day migration, I guess we'll just have to be patient. In the meantime, anyone looking for hosting services... avoid www.dot5hosting.com like the plaque. I used ample reference to 'host' and 'dot5' in case anyone here does a search for 'hosting'. Hopefully they can avoid the same fate with these schmoes. It'll cost us more elsewhere, but it'll be worth it. I think. I still remain dubious that any shared hosting service in the world could be of very high quality, but as an organization we can't afford a dedicated host. Yet. </rant> It's 'being worked on'. Hopefully we'll see resolution soon. -------- trippy1976 - Team KKF2A Assimilating golf balls - one geocache at a time. Michigan Geocaching Organization Homepage Quote
+Squirrel Nut & Beersnob Posted October 22, 2003 Author Posted October 22, 2003 ummm... who hosts the Migo site, again? (miss the 'devil' emoticon at MiGo...) I walk the Maze of Moments, but everywhere I turn to, begins a new beginning, but never finds a finish... -Enya, Anywhere Is Quote
opie744 Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 had problems last night and this morning, glad to see its the site and not the computer. Yet that is bad for the fix-it people at MIGO. We're behind ya guys. It will all get worked out. it's 5 o'clock somewhere!! Quote
+ZachMJ2345 Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 Yeah.... sounds like a real bum of a host. I used BurtonHosting for my old website and in a year I don't remember my site going down at all. They are fairly affordable, too (compared to most services at least.) I'm glad there's a thread on the matter here... I was beginning to worry! I am in the first stages of forum withdrawal right now i think. I need to get my fix... must.... contact.... dot5... our host. Must beat host into pulp! Zach angry! -Zach -Team Zen- Quote
+trippy1976 Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 Still working on it apparently. This is the third time this morning they have given me a 30-60 minute ETA. For the record, I intiated support tickets with them for this last night at 10:00pm. It's been 14 hours of downtime now. Coupled with the recent outage of 24+ hours this is really bad for them. Bad bad bad. Bad for us too. dot5 sucks. I am going to add that to my signature line. -------- trippy1976 - Team KKF2A Assimilating golf balls - one geocache at a time.

+TCNurse06 Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 ok its noon and migo is still down! so just dropping in to say Hello to all while I had a second see ya soon when Migo is back up and runnign (strong???). Quote
+ZachMJ2345 Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 Yeah Trippy, I got on live with one of their service people and told them that I was a regular at the site and that it was a real inconvenience for us and asked from an outside standpoint that they fix it (and I threw in something about how they should refund some money)I also submitted a support ticket, lol. Maybe that will get their butts going. I just did all that about 45 minutes ago. The "Live Tech" said he'd fix it and resolve all the issues right away. I told him that there shouldn't be any "issues" and that they've been ongoing. He said that he would get it resolved... I can't help but doubt that. -Zach -Team Zen- Quote
+Sandrich Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 I actually had the dubious distinction of watching our site crumble. I was in the forums, then over the course of about 10 seconds, progressively lost functionality until zip. The thing with these forums is that, it seems like I'm always looking over my shoulder, wondering if Big Brother is gonna slap me down for having an opinion, and then expressing it. Quote
+ABXGuy Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 5:50 PM still down. Time to change host service. ABXGuy Quote

I use oc12host.com, not one lick of trouble in the last 3 years. They continue to upgrade their equipment and always, I say always, send out an email when ever they are planning any maintenance. As a matter of fact, they have a scheduled upgrade tonight, new routers and server upgrade, service may be down for 2-3 minutes. ABXGuy Quote
+BPACH Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 Argh, I need a fix. We know where we are...We know where we are going..but where in the heck did we leave the car?. Quote
+El Diablo Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 Glad I saw this thread. I tried to get on and it said I was Forbidden.

+trippy1976 Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 yikes. Well, I have to be honest here in all fairness I think. After extensive time on with their tech support... it turns out there was nothing wrong with the host. Trippy made a silly blunder somewhere that brought the ENTIRE site down somehow. Thought I had fixed a lingering site problem and lordy, lordy... I made it worse. Sorry folks. It was my bad this time. Many apologies to our host, dot5. Though we have been having a lot of yo-yo time with them this month and the first outage WAS their fault. -------- trippy1976 - Team KKF2A Assimilating golf balls - one geocache at a time.

+Scook Posted November 26, 2003 Posted November 26, 2003 Trippy's out of town so, of course, the Website is down again. (Has been since last night) Oh well, IRC still works just fine. See you all in chat! Quote
+trippy1976 Posted December 1, 2003 Posted December 1, 2003 I'm back now. We'll be moving hosts in the next two weeks. These problems will stop. There usually isn't a lot I can do while I'm in town with this stupid host. Quote
