| − | Our previous server had an older version of php which limited our ability to upgrade the mediawiki. So, we decided to get a new dedicated server with the latest php. Wikichristian webserver is now upgraded to [[Special:Version mediawiki 1.7.1]]. Thanks to [[User:Ymmotrojam| Tom Major]] for the upgrade. Please let us know if there are any other issues. We are working on the image thumb nail issue.

| − | The wikichristian server is a dedicated machine hosted by [http://www.aplus.net Aplus.net] for a fee of $99.99 per month as of November, 2007.

| − | ==Server Down time, Jan 2007==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The wikichristian server was temporarily down briefly. We had to do a hard reboot of the system and fix a database issue which was done by me on January 22nd, 2007 and the server is up and running as before. If you notice any issues, please email me at tumpati at hotmail dot com and I will be glad to address the issue, if I can. I also work with Tom Major who is a great techy and an asset to wikichristian. Thanks for the patience and sorry for the inconvenience.

| − | Wikichristian server was offline and needed a server restart on June 8th, 2007. It took about 10 minutes for the webhost aplus.net to restart and the server is back again. However, we would like to have a user alert me via email in case this happens at tumpati@hotmaildotcom so I can address this issue faster. thank you.

| − | Wikichristian server had an image upload problem that generated an error everytime we tried to upload an jpeg image. Thanks to some input from [[User:P.B. Pilhet|P.B. Pilhet]], I was able to fix the issue. We can now upload jpeg images. See the test image I uploaded [http://www.wikichristian.org/Image:Water_lilies.jpg here]

| − | : Hi Prab and P.B. Pilhet. Thanks for fixing the uploading image problem. Unfortunately imagemagick seems to have disappeared so thumbnail pictures aren't working - see [[Church history]] to see what I mean. --[[User:Graham grove|Graham grove]] 05:41, 20 June 2007 (EST)

| − | Wikichristian is growing and with it some growth pains! The server was full in capacity that lead to the server down time. Upon looking at the server in consultation with the support team, we learned that some of the backup files which were old were taking up significant space causing the trouble. Since we only need the latest backup, we were able to delete the older backups and clear as much as 20 GB of space. The database had some issue that prolonged the downtime but we were able to fix the issue upon working on it for many many hours. We are talking to our webhost for an upgrade in the near future in order to accomodate future growth. The new server might cost us about $99.00 per month as per aplus.net, our webhost for a standard dedicated server. If you would like to contibute to the server cost or able to help in other technical stuff with the server, please feel free to drop me a line at tumpati at hotmail dot com. We really appreciate the trust you place in this project and for your patience as we were working on the server. Finally, the server is back online! Thank you and God bless.

| − | Wikichristian is growing everyday, thanks to many dedicated users like you that believe in this project. With the growth, the site has outgrown our dedicated server's capacity. We have bought a newer and better server with aplus.net, our host and have successfully migrated the site to the new server with help from our good friend and techie Raja in Washington DC. With this upgrade, we will have plenty of server capacity and memory to accomodate for future growth. The new server will cost us USD 99.00 per month. If you would like to contribute toward the server expenses, please contact us at tumpati at hotmail dot com. (remove spaces and replace at with @) Thank you all for your understanding and participation in this project. God bless wikichristian.
