Website down

neoncube

As you may have noticed, the website has been down for the past 5-6 hours :/

I've contacted my hosting provider but haven't yet figured out a solution to the issue.

As a backup plan, I've started migrating the website to Amazon Web Services, which should be more stable, but this may take a few days.

Thanks. The Forum was down too.

Strange that the Forum is live but the learning area isn't.

Is the Forum not a sub-set of the learning website? Or is it a separate web address completely?

neoncube

It's a subset of the learning website. I think the main website should be coming back online soon, too 🙂

The third time contacting my hosting provider, I finally got a support rep who helped me out, yay! ^_^

Just for information , I'm getting the log in page but after putting my information in, it spins and remains at that stage.

neoncube

Thanks 🙂 It looks like the UI is back up and running but the backend services are having issues. I'm currently investigating 🙂

FWIW, the forum was down as well.

neoncube

Yaaaay, I'm finally getting an error log, so I can see what the problem is! 🙂

neoncube

Yay, it's working again! ^_^

It looks like all of the course avatars are currently broken, but that's something that's going to have to wait until I wake up tomorrow 😛

Goodnight, everyone, and sorry again for all of the trouble!

I've just done a major update to My Little Word Land's backend (updated Laravel from v8 to v10 and updated PHP from 7 to 8 🙂 )

Everything seems fine, but if you run into any issues, please let me know! 🙂

Currently I am not getting the course picture loading.

PS Now I can not log in.

neoncube

@DW7 The course pictures are still broken, sorry. I need to do some work with uploading them to a different server in order to get them working again :/

Can you log in now?

DW7

Can you log in now?

Not initially on MS Edge, (but on Firefox), so I closed Edge and have now logged in (without course images of course).

Makes me realise how much I rely on images to find my courses.

neoncube

DW7 Ya, it's surprising how blank things look without the images XD

For reference, here is my dashboard.

Image description

Courses added before the server trouble are showing images, but courses added after the recovery are not.

neoncube

7shi I think those images are probably cached 🙂

I've just finished fixing the course images for all courses that were migrated from Memrise! 🙂 Now I just need to fix the course images for courses that were made on My Little Word Land 🙂

neoncube

All course avatars should now be fixed! 🙂

I've also temporarily disabled uploading new course avatars, as I have to rewrite that piece of code in order for it to work again.

7shi

neoncube Everything is OK. Thank you very much!

neoncube

@7shi Np! ^_^

It looks like both of those courses are fixed now 🙂

I think that someone manually recreated the Speak Toki Pona course before I had a chance to upload it, so it's actually a user-created course! 🙂
