I intend to reboot the forum server tomorrow morning (about 7am) following a server kernel update. This should take less than 10 minutes.
I may also take the forum offline in the evening for some server testing (this may be moved to a later date, depending on my schedule).

Yes I ask the stupid questions, because normally it is that simple.

I happened to be around when the forum was quiet, so have successfully performed the reboot, and have postponed the testing for a few days because I found some other enabling work that needs to be done first.

Thanks Mike, Forum seems to be zipping along nicely at present, despite me having a thumping toothache.

Ouch! Oil of cloves (dabbed onto a finger and then onto the offending tooth) might help with the pain. Paracetamol (which is a pain killer) can also help.GiveMeABreak wrote: ↑06 Aug 2023, 17:09 Thanks Mike, Forum seems to be zipping along nicely at present, despite me having a thumping toothache.

Sorry to be picky, but aspirin and ibuprofen are (non-steroidal) anti-inflammatories, while Paracetamol is a pain killer, but not an anti-inflammatory.Hell Razor5543 wrote: ↑07 Aug 2023, 01:00...

When I had a dying nerve in a molar (causing quite annoying pain) the only thing that gave relief (well I didn't try the really hard stuff) was sucking a piece of ice, or swilling cold water. Very temporary, as the ice melted and the cold water warmed in the mouth, but it did help me get through until the dentist could get stuck into the root canal.

Re: Site maintenance this week 9/2/2023
I need to take the forum offline to do some DNS reconfiguration.
I plan to do this tomorrow morning (13/8/2023), there will be an outage of up to 20 minutes, some time between 6:30am an 8am. UK time.

Re: Site maintenance this week 9/2/2023
Thanks for the warning Mike, an ideal time to do it as far as I am concerned!!

It is a lot easier to schedule maintenance when I am in New Zealand.
