Cricket Web Server Move - 10th/11th July 2020

Would this server move increase the speed of CW? It has been loading pages signifactly quicker since it came back on line for me.

i found it really slow last night, but spark sport ********* might have been the culprit

Oh ok, if you find it slow, please post in this thread Flem and I'll get straight onto investigating.

Definitely very noticeably faster for me on Chrome on both mobile (full site) and desktop.

Hi James

issue when using a mobile (seems to be only mobile skin) of apostrophes turning into ?s. Which is weird but apparently a few of us have it.

be grateful if there?s something which could be done.

Glad I?m not the only one with this issue, am on mobile too.

If you guys use the full site on your phone, do you have the same problem?

Wasn't it working before? That's very strange if so that its taken that long.

The apostrophe thing isn't an issue in desktop mode

 

[James]

Just a heads up everyone that today's work has started and the site may go offline for a few mins. I'll post back when it's complete.

Thanks OS, how many of you make use of the mobile skin? With larger phone screens, is it really necessary for you?

And for the record, I did a test post from my Nokia phone with the mobile skin and it was fine.

Yeah but I watched a YouTube video that said it could take anywhere between 5 minutes and 24 hours for the DNS to be updated. I only have access to a phone so I couldn't flush the DNS like I could have on a computer.

Sure, fair enough. Thanks Shri.

Let's put it down to that with DNS propagation possibly still occurring. If it happens again, please post in here when its happening if you can.

Out of interest mate, what makes you use the mobile skin?

I still can’t access the forum from my PC. I’ve tried flushing the DNS and clearing caches but no luck.

Sounds like a job for a daemon

I'll follow-up and see what I hear back. Will let you know.
