HelioHost Posted December 3, 2016 Posted December 3, 2016 When Stevie crashed last night he was experiencing some fairly high load due to running the ns1.heliohost.org nameserver. In order to give Stevie a bit of a break we're going to leave ns1.heliohost.org offline for now. Since ns2.heliohost.org has rock solid 100% uptime the nameserver downtime shouldn't affect anyone's domains. If you're registering a new domain your registrar might give you some errors regarding ns1.heliohost.org not responding though. Let us know if you have any questions. We're hoping that the reduced load from not having to run a nameserver in addition to all of the user accounts might decrease the chance of another crash. 1
teetwist1 Posted December 3, 2016 Posted December 3, 2016 Mysql server is running now. thanks a lot can you change my username cause when tomorrow i register with a user name say its unavailable but it was available a fow minutes ago . but i register on www.helionet.org with this user name. so i can sign up with that user name on www.heliohost.org .

leonardobuares Posted December 3, 2016 Posted December 3, 2016 The A record on my Cloudflare account is set to 65.19.143.3, does it mean I need to change it to ns2's ip? Or it doesn't affect my site at all? (what do I not understand about dns?) Thanks
wolstech Posted December 4, 2016 Posted December 4, 2016 The proper way to set it up is to set an A record to the shared IP of your account. The shared IP can be seen on the left in cPanel (x3 theme), or for paper_lantern click "server information" below the stats on the right to see it.
Blazeweb Posted December 4, 2016 Posted December 4, 2016 It looks like stevie has crashed again and here i thought stevie was supposed to have a great uptime lmao
wolstech Posted December 4, 2016 Posted December 4, 2016 It usually does. These repeated crashes are the first major whole-server crash incident I've seen on Stevie in the 5 years I've been here. Take a look at the server monitor history before thanksgiving week. Other than some load spikes from abuse/ddos, he's been great.
nyten Posted December 4, 2016 Posted December 4, 2016 I've been here for a couple of years already and the server was working for more than 99% of the time. There are rarely problems which can not be solved directly.
gptwindi Posted December 5, 2016 Posted December 5, 2016 The Stevie's server is down again. Please help. Ashish
Guest Marko30 Posted December 5, 2016 Posted December 5, 2016 The Stevie's server is down again. Please help. AshishThey still don't know why Stevie keeps crashing. However, you can donate ~$1 and get access to Tommy.
sneaky Posted December 5, 2016 Posted December 5, 2016 Heiohost down aswell? Takes me index page also donated
wolstech Posted December 5, 2016 Posted December 5, 2016 Our website has been bouncing a bit today due to load that I suspect is related to cleanup work that's part of the Johnny rebuild. If it goes down, just try again in a few minutes. If you donated, you'll probably be getting a Tommy invite in your email at some point in the near future (I believe Krydos gets notifications when people donate).
