YPKO and JWBlog Heartbeat

YPKO Slowness – Transferring to New Server

James Woodcock — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 09:22:24 +0000

In the last month or so, YPKO has had its MySQL tables corrupted on occasion due to an unknown fault. It appears my server hosts are replacing the server to correct the issue and this will affect Yamaha Personal Keyboard Owner today and tomorrow. Please be patient while this takes place as the site will run extremely slowly for long periods while this occurs.

My other sites are not affected by this and will run fine.

YPKO and Blog Down – MySQL Issue

James Woodcock — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 12:51:18 +0000

www.yamahapkowner.com and www.jameswoodcock.co.uk are currently not working. This is beyond my control, although I expect the problem to be fixed by my host soon.

MySQL Update – YPKO and Blog Website Down

James Woodcock — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 08:15:35 +0000

Both Yamaha Personal Keyboard Owner and my blog will be down for a little while:

Planned Upgrade of Customer MySQL 8/8/08 1:03 PM: We will be carrying out some planned maintenance to the customer MySQL service on the morning of 26th August 2008.

This will be for an upgrade of the MySQL servers which will allow us to give a greater, more secure and stable service to customers currently signed up to the optional MySQL service provided by Freeola. These upgrades could cause some MySQL controlled websites to become unavailable for a short period of time, possibly up to an hour.

No other services are expected to be affected.

This will also affect the Yamaha Club website as they are hosted with the same provider.

MySQL Running Slowly

It appears that the MySQL server is running a little slowly at the moment, so please be patient.

YPKO Currently Down

Yamahapkowner.com is currently down and here is the notice from my host:

Unfortunately, we are currently experiencing a problem with Freeola Web 1. This server is currently not displaying sites at all that are hosted on it.

The server in question hosts all websites where the user account ends with the number 1 eg sr0000001.

We would like to assure you that the Freeola engineering team are working urgently on the problem, and hope to have the matter resolved shortly. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused.

YPKO Update

James Woodcock — Fri, 18 Apr 2008 17:27:29 +0000

The site has been down for a couple of days now and unfortunately there isn’t anything I can do other than wait at this point in time. I have been in regular communication with my host and they are working hard to correct the problem.

In a bizarre twist, my personal website and discussion forum are working fine, so if you are desperate you can always have a natter there: http://www.jameswoodcock.co.uk/forum

Thanks everyone for your kind comments on this website and via email.

YPKO and Blog Currently Down

According to my host:

Unfortunately, we are currently experiencing a connectivity issue with one of the servers linked to the MySQL databases. As a result, this will be causing temporary issues for web sites trying to use this feature.

We would like to assure you that the engineering team are working urgently on the problem, and hope to have the matter resolved shortly. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused.
