Gary Lewis Posted July 27, 2021 Author Share Posted July 27, 2021 Glad you got that email, Jim. And thanks for mentioning it as I should have warned y'all. Yes, there is progress. Pedro uploaded a recent backup of this forum onto our AWS servers and modified the email system, and we are banging on it to test it. At this point it is working better than last time in that we are getting email notification of people registering. However, when I registered this morning with that test user and clicked the "confirm" link I was sent I got an error message. But, the registration worked and we, the admins, got an email to that effect. So apparently the email system on the forum is working better this round. And if all checks out we may move around August 1st. Time for another update. We aren't ready to move quite yet. I posted this in a new thread because I want everyone to have a chance of seeing this info and it might get missed in this thread. However, I'm copying it in there for completeness. We believe we are ever-so-close to migrating from the Nabble servers to the AWS servers. Basically the only thing keeping us from that is that most of us cannot log in properly. Yes, that's a big problem, but the solution should be fairly easy as it appears to have something to do with changes that were made to the Nabble code, and we believe we can back those out - but not until September when Pedro has some time to help. However, there are steps that we can take now to start things moving. If you remember we've planned to change from being labeled as "Gary's Garagemahal (the Bullnose bible)" to just "The Bullnose Bible". We've actually bought/leased the URL of bullnosebible.com to go along with this and we need to set up the domain names properly as well as make the needed changes to the website. We are working in the background to get the steps nailed down to make the changes as the timing has to be just right or we could have glitches. But when we have them worked out I'll give you a heads-up and then we'll make the changes. However, don't worry as the old URL will still get you here as it'll be forwarded to the new one. So other than there being a change at the top of the page you shouldn't see any differences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
