Thanks -- it turns out my war file got corrupted!.

However I am curious why does a test.jsp file (within the public_html directory) NOT work anymore? Is there something about this java server install that makes things work differently!

Thanks!

I think it is the tomcat server!

Greetings,

All of sudden, cannot view index.html in any directories at public_html or below -- all permissions are correct!

Is the web-server misbehaving??

Thanks!

Still down?

I tried deploying a java servlet by uploading a war file on tommy -- it however returns HTTP status 404.

Also, it seem to deploy as http://  -- could you please enable https:// 

Thanks.

Hello,

In case I miss your email confirming my migration back to 'tommy' (from ricky) -- is there a way to check if I have been migrated? Also, when migrated -- is 'ricky' automatically disabled?

Thanks.

Greetings -- tommy transfer questions:

1. Would we login into tommy with the credentials that we had before the crash?

2. If you created a temporary 'ricky' account, you had to choose a different user/domain id -- so, when you transfer it to tommy would the userid/domain revert back to what we had on tommy before the crash?

thanks

Not able to get to cpanel, after login!

I came across somewhere that Tomcat may also be upgraded to version 9. (as the current version 8 is quite old)!. So it seems that an official 1 page summary status PAGE will help cool the rumor mills and help peoples' expectations, and hopefully prepare them for things to come. ... Thanks again.

Greetings Friends,

Is there a 1-page bulletin on Tommy that summarizes: 

  1. What stage of re-incarnation is Tommy at?

  2. What softwares are being considered for upgrade in the very near future? -- such as, Tomcat version, etc?

  3. T minus (count down) to boarding -- or any other guidance for returning folks.

-- this will really help everyone to quickly know the status, without having to view/search various topics, chat, etc. It may also answer many of the questions, being asked & re-asked by many.

Thank you all.

Thanks Root. It seems that clicking the link that you sent me kept timing out. And finally I was able to final get through. The system forced me to use a domain that is different from the one I had on Tommy. New domain: citis, Previous domain: citisnet. I would like to retain my previous domain at Tommy when he comes back. Please let me know, what I need to do. 

Transanction id was posted in the first request message! -- 1FK73840U4378152W

I believe receipt came from payPal -- Program:GoFundme. Do you need anything else?

Greetings -- I have been on Tommy as user: citisnet, and would like a login on Ricky or Johnny that can be later moved to Tommy when it comes back. I was told to post my donation transaction id, in order to get an invite for this. My transactionID is: 1FK73840U4378152W. Please let me know the next steps... regards.

BTW, I forgot to mention that I have recently contributed to your donation campaign and have been working with others to support heliohost (you guys) -- so that we may mitigate such a prolonged outage. Again, thanks for your wonderful efforts!

I would like a temporary account on Johnny for now, and be moved back to tommy when he/she returns.

I am on Tommy - So when I try to attempt to create a temporary account (on Johnny) -- it says, something like below -- does not allow me to any option to create an account!

The server that you picked is currently down for extended maintenance. If you require your website to be online as soon as possible we recommend downloading your backup and then creating a new account on Ricky or Johnny. You can follow us on Twitter and like us on Facebook for the latest news. If you need help with anything don't hesitate to contact support. Thank you for your patience during this extended maintenance.

Is there something needed to be done, before I can create an account on Johnny? ... Thanks for your help.

Now, if you were on tommy and do not do anythings (such as creating/moving account to other servers, such as, ricky etc.) --

    Would the userid, password and home directories be restored on Tommy (as best as you can)?, and

    Would the account expiry period (due to inactivity) be extended on Tommy?

Or ... do we all have to re-request new logins on Tommy, with the same or different domains?

Thanks.

I agree.  Just pointing the tommy ip to another server that simply delivers a simple 'crash status' message to all requests will do it! Thanks.

Many thanks to you -- I believe, you guys provide a wonderful service. And when a system unexpected crashes, it is certainly not pleasant for many.

Just a suggestion: I was wondering if it's not possible to redirect, at least all the simple websites (that are at the crashed system) to another server with a simple 'crash message', so that all are informed without having to discover the system crash. I realize that this may not satisfy many people (due to the numerous varied ways people develop their system), it however might be a better public relations approach.

Thanks!

Presuming VPS is a virtual private server. I would appreciate if can point me to more details (references), such as, costs, capabilities, setup, how-to, etc.? Thanks.

I was wondering, if the logins are going through tommy as well?  Because when I try to login into heliohost.org -- it continues to say "Invalid Login".

Thanks.

Thank you. Any idea on the expected time to complete?. Thanks.

Greetings,

I am not able to login into my account -- I believe it is Tommy. Please let me know if the system is down or the account in suspense.

Thank you very much -- just a thought: wondering if downtime can be better managed with some automation, such as, controlled degradation (when resources are over taxed). Again thanks a lot!!!

Thank you. Any guess as to the expected time for this fix? Thanks.
