e-liquid-recipes.com down?

submitted almost 10 years ago by charlieremembers

Is anyone else having issues accessing e-liquid-recipes ? This is terrible timing. I'm leaving for New Zealand tomorrow for a few weeks, and I planned on making a stash tonight.. This is why you shouldn't procrastinate when it comes to traveling!

classic exit scam so /u/daath can run away with all our recipes and start the ultimate eJuice line, we all knew this day was coming...

/u/daath, I love you, but your website has been getting slow lately.

Sorry man, it's effectively down right now. My hosting provider (Digital Ocean) decided now was an excellent time to do a system backup. Ever since it started 4 hours and 30 miniutes ago, the server has been unreachable. I can't cancel it for fear of corrupting data - All I can do now, is wait for it to come back up.

Rest assured, I will cancel automatic backups, and figure out another, non-disruptive way of backing up all data!

Sorry for the inconvenience!

How are you storing data? Mysql? Run a chron job to dump it out to an sql file, then push the sql file off the box somewhere.

Mysql command line: mysqldump -uroot -p MyDatabase >/home/users/backup_MyDB/$(date +%F)_full_myDB.sql

Mysql (MariaDb) - there's already backups of the database - I also had a day old backup off site :)

Crazy, my servers run backups nightly with zero downtime, how on earth do they justify that?

No idea - They told me that it's usually not disruptive. Yesterday their backup was effectively a denial of service attack on me that lasted 6 hours :(

/u/daath actually makes me wonder if we couldn't have a export recipe page to txt or something as a failsafe.

3 points

Yes, recipe export will happen soon! :)

You can still print the recipies and just save them as a pdf instead of sending them to a printer.

Good call. Thanks!

Sorry for the inconvenience, guys! I've turned off their ridiculous backup service and implemented a better non-disruptive backup that backs up directly to a server off-site :)

This exact thing won't happen again!

I can access it but it's been pretty sluggish (lagging) lately.

1 points

by CryptoVaperalmost 10 years ago

Yeah it's been real slow to load lately, particularly the sorted flavor list at http://e-liquid-recipes.com/flavors?sort=num_recipes&direction=desc. That takes at least 30 seconds to load for me.

Extremely sluggish and I can't get the search for recipes using my flavor stash to ever load :(
