Re: [glob2-devel] Updates to wiki / forums

[Kieran P]

Hey Leo,

It all worked out in the end anyway. :P Wiki/Forum is back to normal, and just waiting on AppleBoy to finish is forum theme.

As for next time, if updates are kept regular, there shouldn't be a need for backing up and using tests (example, 1.11.1 to 1.11.2 shouldn't need a test server :P).

Just so you know btw, I was working on a tight schedule. Starting today, I'll probably have to limit my time to a 1/5 of what I was doing. I didn't have time for testing.

Personally I don't think this was much of a damage to the project but it definitely was.

A website being mucked up for a month is damaging. Even a week is damaging, but 24 hours? Thats all it took to get everything back to working order :P Considering how hacked it was (lots of database changes), 24 hours is quite good (if everything had worked, it probably would have only been 6 hours). I think you two are making a big deal out of something so small :P

Regards
Kieran

Hi Kieran,

I guess what Kyle actually wanted to say was that this should never have
happened on the live system. Next time others (me?) might help you to set up a
virtual host test.globulation2.org and get this themed and running before we go
live.
Personally I don't think this was much of a damage to the project but it
definitely was. On the other hand not upgrading would have been a greater
damage, so hopefully next time we do it more professionally.
