Site Down

The site was down for a few minutes this evening. I noticed some slowness due to the growth, so I brought a second webserver online. I also took that opportunity to perform some database maintenance. I apologize for the inconvenience, but this should help the site run faster and more reliably than ever.

Also, in the future, if you ever want an update to the site if it's not working, we post all known outages over at our twitter page. http://www.twitter.com/insanejournal

    Or... they are, but only after a delay and refreshing. How odd.

      That probably has something to do with the second webserver. Things need to sync between them now.

        Aha, cool. *pats them* We shall treat them very gently and lovingly.

      Okay, I found and fixed the problem! Thanks for pointing it out. Apparently the new server couldn't connect to the fileserver, fixed the firewall.

    This is a known issue that will be fixed as soon as we get the code update done.
