my host will be moving the server soon. not sure exactly when.

going to a server with upgraded mysql support (4.1 or 5.0).

hope everything goes okay.

but if not, at least you'll know what happened.

yes, i made a complete site back-up.

they said it should be painless.

Update on the site move (copy-n-pasted from home page):

The site move (to a new, updated server) mentioned yesterday involves a new name server (they say), which means the site might (not sure yet, I asked) be unavailable for a period of time following the move.

Okay, they said the new name server *will* need to propagate, which means the site will be unavailable for 24-72 hours, depending how far away from Los Angeles you are (where the Rad server is physically located). I'm making a *second* full-site back-up right now. =)

the move is scheduled for tomorrow (friday) afternoon.

if you can read this,you are at new server.

i still cannot access any subdomains, such as:

http://ghost.radified.com/

my mail works fine.

cannot access site via ftp at new server, tho i can get into old server fine, so i don't think it's my config.

i originally made mistake an changed name servers to:

ns1.lunarPAGES.com

when they should be:

ns1.lunarSERVERS.com

didn't catch mistake until 8pm saturday eve.

site was moved to new server 8pm friday nite.

The new Rad server is a Dell Poweredge 2650, sporting dual-Xeon @ 2.8 GHz, 6 gigs memory, with SCSI RAID disk storage, running...

Linux CentOS 4.4 (latest = v5.0)

Linux kernel 2.6.9.x (latest = 2.6.21.x, old server had 2.4.21.x)

Apache web server 1.3.37 (latest = v2.2)

MySQL 5.0.x (latest = v5.0.41, old server had 4.0.25)

PHP 5.2.x (latest = v5.2.2, old server had 4.4.4)

Hi Rad,

No problems here with the link. A new window opens up pretty smartly.

If I was technically minded, I'd probably be saying "Wow!" I'll leave that to the experts.  ;)

Anyhow, congratulations!

Regards, Al

are you sure you're not loading from cache?

try other subdomains you haven't previously visited.

I found that if I hit *Ctrl + R* to force the browser to refresh it's cache--the pages load okay.

Anyone else find that works for them?

Sunday morning in beautiful downtown Dallas and life is good again.  Do not have to use "Ctrl+R".  In the beginning, did get the message about the new server's security certificate not being up to date.  Finally remembered that Rad was changing servers; accepted certificate, and everything went fine - including mail.

everything should be working properly now.

Oops - spoke too soon about the mail.  When I attempt to access Rad mail, I receive a message, every time, that says something to the effect: You are attempting to establish connection with mail.radified.com.  However the security certificate presented belongs to hafgan.lunarservers.com.  I can press ok and the mail will continue, but it stops every time and I have to press OK. Any suggestions?

Thanks

What client are you using?

Not familiar with that. My email transferred over without a hitch. I use a dozen-or-so different addresses. Hafgan is the name of the new server.

Magoo had me whip him up a new password. But your problem sounds different. I can see how it would quickly become annoying.

What if you add Radified (if you haven't already) to your list of "Trusted" sites?.. as detailed here:

http://radified.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1175144143

Sounds like your system is configured specifically to the old server, but going to the new, and that's troubling it. (as indicated by the word "however").

Post the exact message if you can.

"You have attempted to establish a connection with "mail.radified.com".  However, the security certificate presented belongs to "hafgan.lunarservers.com".  It is possible, though unlikely, that someone may be trying to intercept your communication with the web site.

If you suspect the certificate shown does not belong to "mail.radified.com", please cancel the connection and notify the site administrator."

Then there are three buttons: View Certificate, OK and Cancel.

The certificate is "SSL Client Certificate", "SSL Server Certificate", "Status Responder Certificate".  Common Name: hafgan.lunarservers.com.

Now it also says that "Thunderbird and mail.radified.com cannot communicate securely because they have no common encryption algorithms."

Now I cannot download mail from mail.radified.com!  My security setting is TLS (I have no idea what that is) if available.  If I change to SSL, I can download the mail, but I still recieve the message about the SSL Client Cerfificate.

Is it possible that the new server is using older security protocols than the older server? Wikipedia says that TLS is the newer and the most secure.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

EDIT

OK, it is not possible for the new server to be using an older security protocol - sorry to have even thought that, but can't anybody give me a suggestion about the SSL Client Certificate not belonging to mail.radified.com?

Help Please!  see post above

You should start a new thread.

Unstick-i-fied.

Thanks for your help
