Where were you when the site went out?

[justgary]

I can only imagine the number of people with withdrawal symptoms during the site outage. 

What did you get done, or what other site did you waste your time on?

Working on getting it back up :)

Yeah.  I bet you were....

The other site I'm on anyways and do the web admin for,  https://www.pugski.com/.

Updates can go so smooth in test and then, BOOM! in production something goes wrong. I'm sure @Malibudude wish he could get that time back.

It's strange, but I actually got my software working yesterday.  Seems that I was able to focus a bit more on work....

Glad everything is back to normal today!

People in IT don't say that, because they already know better. 

No more touching things for you, you're banned from any more "fixing".

Welcome back!

Noticing slow refresh times since this update when I click unread content or more activity tabs - both home & work computers same problem. Chrome in use.

I've updated the site to use PHP 7 & cleared all of the caches. It may take some time for everything to reindex, but I think that it should speed things up a bit.

[footndale]

If you where using php 5 instead, it will. 

[WakeGirl]

The root folder appeared to be, but the site itself was pointed to use 7. I've aligned everything on 7 so we may see a bump in speed, but it's hard to know what the actual effect of having mismatches like that across the installation would be.

Uh oh, my old antique home system is still running on XP and found this weekend I can no longer log in here.  Don't suppose there's anything I can do other than join the current century??

What is the problem that you're encountering?

Too many security risks with XP since it hasn't been supported for over 4 years.  If you only use it for browsing then install Ubuntu on it.

It says "site cannot provide a secure connection themalibucrew uses an unsupported protocol

ERR_SLL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH

[WakeGirl]

Well, yeah, it's probably time to retire that pc. Or do a Linux installation as suggested above.

[Rednucleus]

Sucks getting old and no longer useful

Not trying to be a pest, but can you tell me why bucrew is the only place I go that gives me this problem?

Better encryption. 

As Ben said, ubuntu is a great solution.  Careful, though, you might get used to not having Billware.

I still use XP on my milling machine running Mach 3. It is in my shop, with no Internet, and only sees the same thumb drive with new g code programs.
