Website Back Online

Submitted by Thirtysixway on Fri, 02/04/2011 - 2:59pm

My site has been down for the past couple of days.  What had happened was my webhost randomly disabled some php functions such as ini_set, which Drupal uses to run. While there may have been some ways round it, it pushed me over the edge.

I moved my website files and database over to my development server running Ubuntu 10.04. I just needed to wait until DNS updated, and started working on putting the site back up.  At first things weren't working, and I just didn't have time to fix it. But it should all be working now. I lost a little bit of data, but nothing too bad. Read more about Website Back Online

 (I posted this on their forum, but here it is again.)

I've been with cirtexhosting for two or three years, and maybe the only reason I haven't switched is because I've been busy. I've recommended clients in the past, but I no longer would recommend cirtexhosting services to anyone looking for "quality" web hosting.

Sure, there have been the usual hosting woes, downtime and maintenance, DDoS attacks, etc. That isn't what bothers me, since that happens at any web host. It's the lack of support and the overall lack of concern for my account and services. Read more about DO NOT Use CirtexHosting
