Title: JaguarPC server outages
Post by: littleman on May 10, 2021, 05:20:02 AM
Could you all do me a favor and log a th3Core outage times and duration in this thread?  Tech support keeps promising that they are on top of it, but we keep getting failures.  I'm not always online so I've missed some of them.  Thanks.

Don't have an exact time but yesterday around 15:00-16:00 GMT the site wasn't loading.

You might find this PHP script useful to run from elsewhere. Should work as is, just had to edit out some SMS stuff.

I had some outages too, but didn't note the time.

I didn't look at BOL's script, but if it's on the same server and the server is down, it will just log it, right?

I've had good luck with this

Checks every 5 minutes and emails you when the site goes down and when it comes back up, so worst case it's off by 10 minutes. 100% free.

BoL's script would best be used on another server, it is a nifty little script though.  Thanks BoL for pre-populating all the variables for me.

That looks pretty good too.

Jaguar claims they've suspended the account that was eating all the server resources.  We'll see.
