Server Fixed

I woke up this morning to an email from our hosting company letting me know that the recent issues with the server since the last management interface update seemed to be connected to the server installation (i.e. the actual physical servers software, not the Minecraft install).

As the problem reoccured at around midnight last night they decided to just reinstall everything, but leave the server down for me to check over before starting it back up, so it has been down since then. I have now checked things over and everything seems fine (all our files were kept safe during the reinstall) so the server is now back up.

Hopefully we're now back to being stable again :) 

Server Network Issue

The server is currently experiencing a network issue, this is being investigated by the hosting company and should be resolved very soon. Technically the server isn't down but players will not be able to connect until this is fixed.

Update; 20:20 - This is now fixed!

May The 4th Be With You!

Don't forget you can get in the spirit and watch Star Wars Episode IV on the big screen cinema in the Diggy Emporium!

Server Down

A management interface update by our hosting company has gone badly wrong and as a result our server has been down since around 8am, they are working on resolving the situation and hopefully the server will be back up very soon, there shouldn't be any rollback etc needed as the server was properly shut down.

I'll update here as soon as I get any news.

As of 11:15 am the server is back up and the whitelist removed!
