- unplanned downtime
All on-premises Squidge services (squidge.org, Image Hosting, SquidgeWorld, Classic Squidge, IRC) went down Thursday night at approximately 6pm Pacific time due to network issues. We seem to be mostly up this morning, with the exception of Classic Squidge which only hosts a very small number of websites that depend on a very insecure, outdated version […]

- explained downtime
We had some issues overnight, which led to our database server failing. Not sure why it didn’t auto-recover like it should have and we will investigate. Meanwhile, all services are back up (though SquidgeWorld is going through Sunday maintenance as I type this). If after all services are back up you notice anything odd, please […]

- outage
Apparently our ISP, Ziply Fiber, is having intermittent outages in the Pacific Northwest. We had a 45 minute downtime earlier, and a 15 minute downtime just now. If you can’t access any Squidge.org services with the exception of FenRecs.com (which is remote hosted) then please wait a bit and then retry. Sorry, but this seems […]

- ISP Downtime
We went down for approximately 45 minutes, apparently due to an ISP issue. Both our fiber lines seemed to be down simultaneously, which meant there was something in the ISP’s switching office that barfed and they had to bring things back up. Nothing within Squidge.org itself went down, but all services except for FenRecs.com seemed […]

- image hosting
We attempted an upgrade (a one-click, no mess upgrade which bombed) to get around a defect, but it bombed last night and no amount of pleading and prodding would get it to work. So this morning we’re live on the older version of our image hosting software and things are back up. If you see […]

Image hosting (https://images.squidge.org) is currently down. It will be up as soon as we’re able to. Please be aware that if this takes longer than expected, image hosting will become password-protected and unavailable until released.

Short Outage

- outage
- outage explanation
About an hour ago we went down for about 20 minutes, but things should be up and running smoothly now. We had a power issue (electrician is testing some things) so we had to flip the breaker. And while most items are protected via battery backup, one of our systems blurped and didn’t automatically come […]

- yearly financials
Attached is a list of financials for Squidge.org, INC for 2024. While we raised enough money to cover our expenses, because of legal requirements and filings, we actually didn’t quite cover all of our bills – so it’s a good thing we had a cushion in the bank to cover these expenses. As a breakdown: […]
