Ok Here we go we knew this was coming and here it is  :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: 

This was the #1 reason we did this massive upgrade.. We just hope the old Archive site survives... :arrowthruhead: :arrowthruhead:

Important information regarding your accounts on jaguar.host_gator  - Please read this email in full...




Dear Valued Customer,

We're writing to inform you of an important change in your server's default configuration that may affect your websites, including those of any of your resold accounts. We will be updating the default version of PHP on jaguar.websitewelcome.com starting 6/18/2014.

We have attempted to automatically check the compatibility of your accounts. Please bear in mind that you may circumvent any of these results by manually configuring your desired PHP version utilizing the instructions in this email's FAQ section. If you take no further action, your accounts will be configured as follows:

Compatible with PHP 5.4 (These accounts will use the new PHP 5.4 version)

nlgcom
kg7nlg
joeylc

While these accounts have passed automated testing, we strongly urge you to test PHP 5.4 manually by following the directions given in this article:

http://support.hostgator.com/articles/hosting-guide/php-5-4-server-update

Not Compatible with PHP 5.4

nlgorg
nlgnet


FAQ:

1) Why are you making this change?

The default version of PHP that our servers are currently utilizing (PHP 5.2) has been deprecated for some time. As such, we would like to see your sites enjoying the security and performance benefits of the newer versions of PHP which we already have available on your server.

2) How can I make sure my sites will work?

While we are taking every possible step to try and automatically assign the right version to all of your scripts, we do want to ask you to please login into your cPanel and test all of your sites using PHP 5.4 yourself.

The default behavior of your account is for PHP settings to be inherited by sub-directories. That means that you can quickly test all of your site's compatibility with PHP 5.4, by setting the PHP handler of your home directory (public_html) to PHP 5.4. Then simply test your websites by opening them in your browser. We have added an easy to use plugin to configure your PHP version to your cPanel, follow these steps to use it:

* Login to your cPanel at xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

* From the home page locate the "Advanced" box and click on "PHP Configuration."

* Select "PHP 5.4" from the drop-down menu and leave the default directory, click "Update" to submit the changes.

* You should see a confirmation message that reads: The ".php" file extension will be processed by PHP 54 for this account.

* You may now visit your websites and check for any issues or visible errors. If your sites function normally it means your sites are compatible with PHP 5.4 and you will not need to perform any other steps from this point.

3) Will my site's experience any down time?

The switch between PHP versions is a simple text change in your .htaccess file. There is no maintenance which must be performed on the server itself. However, applications that are not compatible with PHP 5.4 will fail to load properly if they have not had the correct version of PHP set. While we will make every effort to automatically perform compatibility checks for each account and set the appropriate handler, it is imperative for you to double-check compatibility before 6/18/2014 .

4) Who can help me update my site/script to use a newer version of PHP?

While we can assist you with changing the version of PHP your script utilizes, we will not be able to recode your site to be compatible with newer versions of PHP. You should contact the script's author/developer to inquire as to whether or not they can or plan to re-design their code to utilize latest versions of PHP.

New forum update just installed 2.0.8 A patch has been released, addressing memory issues with 2.0.7, MySQL 5.6 compatibility issues and a rare member list search bug.

This is primarily addressing the memory issues from creating way too many closure-style functions. Unfortunately the main mitigation is to actually make standard functions rather than proper closures, but until 5.3+ is an actual requirement, there's no way around this. There are also uses of the curry function in other places. It's not entirely clear if these can actually be rewritten yet. In the interim, then, bumping the memory limit more generally is really the only option.

PLEASE report any errors you find in the forum software..  Thanks Joeylc

Happy Thanksgiving, Joey!

A new version of SMF was released in the past few days -- 2.0.15.  It would be a good idea to upgrade to that when you have the chance.  :yes:

Hi Joey,
In an effort to improve uptime and stability, we will be upgrading your web hosting server's hardware! Here are some of the benefits of the upgrade:

All solid-state drive(SSD) backed storage. This means much faster access and write times for data.
Moving to Intel(R) Xeon(R) E5 processors vs existing AMD.

The scheduled maintenance will begin on Wed, Dec 19th for jaguar.websitewelcome.com, and your server may experience intermittent downtime starting at 9 PM CDT. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

If you have any questions, please contact our support team via HostGator Chat.

Thanks,
The HostGator team

Just for your information we're currently experiencing a lot of 500 errors in loading the server looking into the server log we are being hit with a denial-of-service attack from Hong Kong. We have blocked the send IP address range Philippines and Hong Kong. If you see any other 50 error codes please notify us. As they've moved on to a different subnet and we need to block it thanks for you for your understanding.

No fun, Joey! Thanks a ton for the update and for tending to the site as usual.


Let me know if you ever need anything in terms of added infrastructure or anything of the sort (As opposed to HostGator). Cloudflare might also help mitigate these attacks if they continue to be a problem.


Thank you as always for maintaining a loving and vibrant community here at NLG!

Cyber terrorism, one way of getting all the information, killing your server and then asking for ransom.  We ran across this issue several times when I worked for a credit card processing company.
