Re: demo server down

[Safia Yonker]

Well Demo is back up.  Thank you to you who fixed that problem.

I tried to log on to sagenb.org again to day and was prompted to create yet another account today.  Funny thing is I have been able to each time.  No message that my email or user name was taken.  Any word on what is going on there?  I have a few students that lost work between tuesday and wednesday.

I appreciate this work an woud gladly financially support it.

In the next few months, I'll be launching the service described here,
which you'll have the opportunity to financially support:

I read that, and two things come to mind.

1) A minor one, but Ghz should be changed to GHz in numerous places.

2) Do you really think you are the best person to do what you propose, or would
it be better to get a computer scientist to do it? To me at least, this does not
require any maths, but a good computing background, and so is not the job for a
mathematician, but a computer scientist.

Hello.  The demo server seems to be down again with a 503 error.  Should I not be using that one?  Which is the most stable?

It seems that demo.sagenb.org is having problems with the daily restart.
I'd say sagenb.org itself is relatively stable at this point.

Thanks,

Jason

Hello Jason, If you wouldn't mind restarting the demo server one more time.  I have one more round of documents shared with me by students that I need to download before I am completely switched to the main sagenb.org and I won't pester you about this again.

I think William might be migrating demo to a new server architecture.
I'm not sure where he is in this process, so I'll let him comment here.

Thanks,

Jason

I haven't touched it yet (been busy with students). I likely won't
do anything that would cause downtime until maybe 2 days from now.

Okay, I restarted demo, then.
