The 'forgot password' feature of the lobby should be busted too as well. I'll be tackling that after the support server is restored.

One thing that is truly lost, a good chunk of DB data, any users registered to the lobby in the last two weeks will need to re-register.

OK I also just noticed can't download maps. Is that temporary as well ?

I cleaned up a bit too many DNS entries. I restored those, it takes about 10 minutes for DNS to update globally. Should be back pretty soon.

Key changes:

  • changed to a new server on a less SKU, saves $19/month. I think we can get away with the less powerful server and save cash.
  • new server is running Ubuntu 24 (OS upgraded)
  • we did lose about 2 weeks worth of database changes, anyone who registered in that time will need to re-register their account
  • I added a new daily backup feature for database, it'll help prevent data loss like that going forward

Currently working on a routing misconfig causing a 404 when logging in. Once resolved, I believe everything should be back up and running

  • [done] new server running
  • [done] DNS updated to point to new server
  • [done] nginx config (this does SSL / https for us)
  • [done] postgres18 database running

It should be dead/gone right now. I need to focus on getting things set back up properly - sorry if i misread something in the meanwhile.

Upgrade update: The database re-config for lobby is not going that well. Anyone that registered in the last two weeks will likely need to re-register (lost data). I'm making progress though on getting lobby back up and running.

Key steps:

  • [done] new server running
  • [done] DNS updated to point to new server
  • [done] nginx config (this does SSL / https for us)
  • [WIP] postgres18 database running
  • [WIP] lobby running
  • [TODO] restore users table in database
