WERA Website

So it's down again as the server got hit by ransomware overnight. Gotta figure out the best way to restore everything so I expect it to be a few days before it's all back up and running. Sorry for the hassle.

 

Okay after a bit the website is back up - however we decided to go back to a known good backup of everything which means that currently all of the December and January new members and renewals are NOT going to be showing in online registration or the other site pages. We will get all of that sorted this coming week and update. As a result we will be leaving pre entry for Talladega open a couple of days longer and we will be delaying opening Las Vegas a bit as well. Sorry for all of the hassle and thank you for your patience.

 

Talladega is back open for pre entry. I'm guessing that between the new server software, SQL, software and settings that somehow something will be broken on getting the pre entries from the site to the office - however don't worry about it on your end, we'll be double checking everything. It just means I'm going to wait a day before I open Vegas. Besides that I lost the schedule I'd done for it so need to redo that as well.

We went to backups of the important stuff from late November. That means anyone who signed up for online registration since then will have to do it again. On that note if you have used a password for our stuff that you use elsewhere - change it everywhere. It doesn't look like anything was copied from our end but you never know. The online registration is the only area where we store any passwords. If you have already pre entered Talladega you are fine even though it won't show online that you're in those classes right now. Talladega pre entry will also be open until late tomorrow night or early Thursday morning. I'd go longer but we still have to process things and get loaded and drive to the track Friday. Thanks for your understanding and be safe travelling, we'll see you this weekend!

 

Hmmmmm....I fixed that at one point. Lemme look.

 

So seems to be fixed again for now. Let me know if you have any issues.

 

Thanks for the troubleshooting.

Oh wait a sec - we were playing with the sql databases, that's probably why two different errors at different times - give it another shot.

 

I just tried it, should be good now, sorry about that!

 

And yet again it's down. Had a new router put in but timed it badly as it went in as I was driving to the airport to fly to Vegas and it's not working right obviously. Should be back Tuesday when I can get to the office from the airport.

 

Hmmmmm, I'll try and sort that out once I get it back up and running - and when I forget, remind me

 

Very cool, thanks for checking it!

 

It's working fine and was every time I checked it over the weekend. Nationals are still open for pre entry, sportsman closed last night at midnight (maybe at 11 due to the time change, I'll check that).

What kind of error are you getting?

 

Weird, no clue what happened sorry. No power outages or the like here. Given all that I've been doing to the poor thing I expected it to be on my end....
