SquidgeWorld Status
The SquidgeWorld Archive came back up successfully a few hours ago – but I was too focused and enraged on what’s going on in the world instead of sending out an “up” notice like I normally do. So my apologies if anyone was waiting for me. Basically, it was my own fault. I changed a […]
Read MoreSquidgeWorld – Down
SquidgeWorld is down at the moment. Disk issue – but this isn’t a bad one now that we know what’s going on. We’ll be fixing some stuff, moving our backups to another partition, and then restart the archive in the next couple of hours. We should be up by about 12Noon Pacific at the latest.
Read MoreSquidgeWorld Maintenance Take 2
I think we’ve finally uncovered the last issue ::knock wood:: First off, a couple of months back, some of the internal components of SquidgeWorld failed, and we had to move the drives and RAM to a new piece of hardware. That hardware, while slower, was working fine until the internal disk drive became corrupted – […]

Read MoreBack Up *MOSTLY*
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with the exception of Classic Squidge which only hosts a very small number of websites that depend on a very insecure, outdated version […]
Read MoreUnplanned 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 […]
