Re: llamaserver and e-mail problems
Aaaaahhhhhh.
Aaaggghhh.
The above messages were far too hasty, and were based just on checking the error e-mails I'd received, and not even looking at the website (which hasn't been updated since Monday). On trying to log into the server... no luck. On trying to reboot it, it won't boot up.
So, the server's died. Hardware failure. It happened about 20 hours after the hurricane knocked out hostgator's mail services - whether that's coincidence or the problems placed some kind of load on my server (due to imperfect coding on my part) which overheated the thing isn't clear. In any case, I can't turn it on now.
The good news is that I've no reason to think that the hard disk has died - it doesn't get as far as using that. Even if it has died, which I think is unlikely, all the important files (including all game ftherlnd files) are backed up elsewhere.
I will try to set up a temporary solution in the next day or so, using my work computer. Then I'll set about working out what hardware I need to replace.
Many apologies, all, for the inconvenience.
