MAME World, Clrmame Pro etc. is always down when Lemon is, same host I guess.

Yep, they are on the same host.

Kim really should look for a new host.

@vikingo

Your post isn't really relevant for the News section so I merged it with this thread

Server problems again, I'd imagine. A real pain.

>Some time ago I suggest to Kim to move to BlueHost or something similar.

Surely not BlueHost, remember how they wiped Woodshed's medical help forum, KG's site, etc.?

Bluehost are a good hosting company, and you get a lot for your money. However they only provide shared hosting accounts. These are more than enough to host a forum, but cannot cope with a large site the size of LA.

The stability and up time of dedicated server hosts is quite an issue these days. I've had trouble with stability from a number of different hosting companies over the years and I'm still looking for the best performance/reliability/price ratio for a dedicated server host and yet to find the perfect one. It is very hard to locate the right one, and you also have to take into account that sometimes it can be a script running on your site that can keep taking a site down, and not just the fault of the hosting company themselves. So easy to kill a server by overloading a mysql cache for example. However, even if it were one of your own scripts bringing a site down, you would still hope that the server support team managing it at the data centre would be able to get it back up and running asap, and not leave you waiting for hours, if not days for it to be recovered. That in my opinion is the most important part of finding the best dedicated hosting companies.

I'm not able to access Lemon Amiga at the moment...

http://www.lemonamiga.com/

I get this message:

ERROR

The requested URL could not be retrieved

While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.lemonamiga.com/
The following error was encountered:

Unable to forward this request at this time.

This request could not be forwarded to the origin server or to any parent caches. The most likely cause for this error is that:

The cache administrator does not allow this cache to make direct connections to origin servers, and
All configured parent caches are currently unreachable.

Your cache administrator is root.

Seems to be down

Xenon · 25 August 2008, 01:13

Yes, you're right. Hope it's a temporally problem

PS: The same problem happens with lemon64.com

Graham Humphrey · 25 August 2008, 01:15

Merged with this existing thread.

Annoying isn't it? Must be that damn server problem as mentioned previously...

gklinger · 25 August 2008, 01:18

What's new?

Anubis · 03 September 2008, 16:43

TCD · 03 September 2008, 16:49

Okay let's sum it up

AmigaGames.com
Total-Emu.org
LemonAmiga.com

I'm feeling a bit worried

At least EAB seems to be indestructable

killergorilla · 03 September 2008, 16:54

Do we really need more and more posts everytime Lemon is down?

It's pretty obvious it's a problem with the server their end.

Anubis · 03 September 2008, 17:11

KG on offense today...

Of course, we need more meaningless posts!

Graham Humphrey · 03 September 2008, 17:24

Any excuse to get the ol' post count up, eh?

Anubis · 03 September 2008, 17:35

Shhh, don't tell those who have 2-3 times more posts then I this 'secret'.

Ohh, shit, you both are one of 'them'.

Kim should really take seriously this hosting issue. I'm sure that it would be less posting when LA is up and running instead when is down.

gklinger · 03 September 2008, 20:49

At the risk of stating the obivous, it isn't just Lemon Amiga, it's Lemon 64 too. It's pretty obvious that Kim doesn't give a crap about Lemon 64 anymore but I thought he was more attached to Lemon Amiga. It's odd that he doesn't just switch to another hosting company and be done with it. I guess he's busy with a new girlfriend/job/whatever.

mailman · 10 November 2008, 13:05

Both Lemons seem to be down again till Saturday... It's a pity. Anybody knows what is going on?

Where did you get the info about Saturday? It's really a pity that it's down this often

At least the Lemon competition guys can post their scores here (if they know that they can do it...)
