New version of board software to be installed tonight or tomorrow, so expect downtime December 23, 2009, 06:48:04 PM Just a heads up - there is a new version of vBulletin waiting to be installed. I did a minor upgrade this evening to prepare for the major upgrade (some of you may have noticed a brief outage this evening of about a half hour) but the big upgrade is still forthcoming. I am just waiting for the newest version of PHP to be installed by GoDaddy, which should happen within 24 hours. Quote Selected

Straight pipes FTMFW :DThe upgrade is still coming, I'm just trying to figure out how to convert the forum's database, which is currently in mysql version 4.0.27 into something 4.1.0 or higher, as the new software requires this. The trick is to do it without losing everything :D (I've backed up the database, so I should be OK, it's just a matter of convincing Godaddy's MySQL control panel to export the old file into a new format). Alex? Eric? Any suggestions that would make this easier? Quote Selected
