Notice : GFY Maintenance Coming Up This Weekend!

01-05-2006, 07:58 PM

Time for some major software updates. These will be taking place very late night/very early morning to reduce the impact and downtime. Preliminary schedule as follows.

Saturday morning 2am to 3am PACIFIC TIME
Extra full database backup, probable downtime should be less than 1 hour, more like 30 minutes maximum.

Sunday morning 2am to 3am PACIFIC TIME
Secondary Extra database backup, and full codebase backup, probable downtime should be less than 1 hour, more like 30 minutes maximum.

Monday morning 1am to 3am PACIFIC TIME
System upgrade time, configuration, fine tuning. I'm already testing everything on one of my development servers, but there's a ton of steps involved in this. My printed checklist for this process is currently at 84 pages, which may grow even more before time for the live upgrade.

I'm testing the hell out of everything to eliminate any surprises, so it should all go smoothly. I'll post any further information in this thread as it comes up.

I had everything just about ready to go for 3.5.2, and then 3.5.3 came out yesterday afternoon. It figures, and it was back to the digital drawing board.

Actually had my degrees in Electronics Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering before you were born. Was writing code since 1978, and working in systems engineering and avionics control systems as well. Haven't been back in a classroom since I was an instructor in the mid-90's. I've found a lot of better ways to make make money since.

As far as the look and feel of GFY, the changes will be very minor.

But the backend code has pretty much been rewritten 100%, and that's why I'm doing so much testing. All the code has been made more modular, to allow features and other updates to "snap-in" as modules. Before, to add any features you had to hack on the original files, sometimes 100's of them just to put in a new feature. With the old code even a minor update was usually a very painful process. Now that it's modular, adding new features will be quick and easy.
