Great, I'd just missed a trailing slash in the redirect from http to https

Re: Commercial and Events sub-forum has gone walkabout?

I've just updated the config file - did that sort it out?

Re: Commercial and Events sub-forum has gone walkabout?

I'm not having the same issue on either Chrome or Edge. I wonder if it's something cached locally for those who regularly visit that URL. Those of you having the issue, can you try with a different browser? That should help us figure out if it's potentially an issue for new comers. I'm less worried ...

Re: Server upgrade

I've migrated the forum to a brand new virtual server to try to start with a clean slate. Generally that seems to have worked pretty well but (for me at least) it's re-broken the spam filter so it's ended up in the spam nets again. At least this time it's ending up in the recipients Spam folder, not...

Re: Server upgrade

Yet another issue has cropped up. The server is doing "unattended upgrades" that include a shutdown of the server. It seems to be doing it every 12 hours. It doesn't restart correctly after that. I'm manually recovering that by re-starting the container. I'll have to keep doing manual rest...

Re: Server upgrade

It seems the Submit is now taking a lot longer than it previously did. I'm not sure where to even start looking for how to address that so I'm afraid it's going to be a grin and bear it. Take the 5-10 seconds to free associate, it's good for your brain :D

Re: Server upgrade

Well, good news is I found how to fix that. Bad news is that I broke the mail server in the meantime. Seems I don't have the anti spam/authentications settings setup correctly. Probably won't get to it for a few days now, so will have to be manual checkups in the meantime. Apologies.

Re: Server upgrade

All done with the server upgrade but as usual I'm having trouble with getting the subscription emails to work. It seems to be ok about sending you a response if you've logged in since your last advisory email, but otherwise it won't send you anything. I'll have another crack later. Otherwise let me ...

Server upgrade

Hi all, long time no chat. Merry Christmas and happy new year! In digging around for another site I'm hosting I've discovered this server as well as the phpBB software is all ridiculously out of date. I'm going to have a crack at doing a rebuild in the next little while - planning on this week but d...

Re: TM1 Career

No-one else game? Probably about the only TM1 question I can answer any more... I haven't been much involved in TM1 for about five years - which actually probably gives me a bit of perspective on your questions. I can't really answer your specific questions with equal specificity as so much depends ...

Re: Email has been disabled

I've made a few changes and re-enabled the email. I haven't yet started asking the blacklisting sites to unblacklist the forum IP so if your email hoster is blocking it then that will continue. After a day or two I'll check if the changes are having the desired effect and if so I'll ask them to deli...

Email has been disabled

I have disabled the email as I seem to have a spam infection and the IP address is beginning to get blacklisted.

I'll update as I make progress with hardening up the postfix install.

Re: Upcoming server migration

I've got the body of the email working now, but it currently will still only send you an email once and then won't send you another until you've visited the forum. Fixing that is next on the to-do list.

Re: Upcoming server migration

Just an update to say that I haven't forgotten about fixing the email notifications to do what they used to do. I've just been very short of time in the evenings of late. No end in sight to that at this stage, but it's on my radar to finish this job.

Re: Upcoming server migration

Thanks for the thanks - it's usually quite fun messing about in Ubuntu, it's a nice change of scenery from data. Annoying when a snag like this comes up though. I am receiving emails but it looks like there is a setting to be tweaked as I receive: Yep, this is the default email approach. Unfortunate...

Re: Upcoming server migration

Progress! You were right Jim, it was a port issue. Turns out the VM provider was blocking 25. I've got it opened up and can now send emails from the server. It's still not quite configured right for the forum. You might get some emails, but they'll be the useless ones telling you there's a new post,...

I just had another crack at the emails, but I keep coming up against brick walls. I won't be able to get to it tomorrow either so hopefully will get to it over the weekend.

Re: Upcoming server migration

Seems to have gone successfully this time. Welcome to the new digs. This server is now based in the States, Seattle I think, so might be a bit faster for the top half of the world(?) I've also upgraded the forum version hence the slightly update skin. Let me know if you spot anything funny. I've sti...
