" I think we need to be thinking about another host.
That's just rubbish, to kill the site without warning like that;

You would have to wonder.
Whirlpool use Bulletproof.
Probably way too costly.

Bad enough that the forum goes down regularly.
This is not a jab on the nose at John Murga.
Just pure frustration.
But with Puppy gaining traction it is a real turn off
for first timers.....Puppy is now Number 9 at Distrowatch...
even before final release of Puppy 4.2.

Hi there.
I was wondering if I could get permission to edit:
http://www.puppylinux.org/localization/espanol
Or maybe I can post a wiki page and the someone can edit that?
That'd be easier. I have some php skills and if I can help/gather enough energy I will.
Always so lazy

cpu usage issue
The issue has been CPU usage, and the use of static pages for frequently accessed pages can help. This will be done soon.
Our stats at puppylinux.org are 11,500 hits daily and 180 GB transfer per month.
If you want to assume editor role, just PM me or whodo with your username in drupal.

On the News item and other pages
I would like to click on the add image icon and upload or use an image
. . . but it is not working? Anyone know why?
My feeling is the comments section on the front page is a good way of keeping a changing page
The wiki index is much more useful with search
and latest posts are available to check what is happening

Spam in comments
Comments section is a good way of keeping a changing page. (I assume we want this as bait for googlebots?) Unfortunately you can end up with a page full of spam until the mods delete it from the main forum.
(Maybe I am mistaken here, are the comments just scraped form the main forum or are they from a separate comments section?)
I can't see a simple solution to that, maybe an automatic time-delay of some sort so that the spam never gets through to the website frontpage?

Could we consider using TuxFamily as a host?WhoDo wrote:HostGator took us down AGAIN for high CPU usage! What th'!! They claimed it was because of 50 simultaneous accesses to the main page!

http://puppylinux.org/Seems to be down?Code: Select all
You don't have permission to access /index.php on this server. Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Anyway, I made some changes to caching, etc and that seemed to satisfy them for the moment so it should be back now.

Also I recently got a personal message from someone wanting to edit the wiki
I suggest they register
Still could not edit
I suggest they get permissions from Raffy
They get permissions
Still can not edit and send me stuff to edit
Is this a wiki or Fort Knox?
Anyone else want to edit the wiki and unable to?
I blame the spammers . . .

puppylinux.org taken down again!
Hostgator has killed off puppylinux.org AGAIN! That is the third time and also without any warning whatsover; just a "beg pardon" AFTER the event! Here is the text of the Support Ticket raised:
I have emailed our website admin (Prit) and raffy who both have access to the admin level of puppylinux.org for maintenance. In the meantime please be patient.
As you can see there were only 4 processes running at the time. That is nowhere near good enough IMHO. I believe we should be looking for another host with more concern for its users than HostGator has displayed.HostGator wrote:Reference: Monitor

Hello,
This is a courtesy notice to inform you that the following directory has been temporarily disabled due to excessive resource usage:
/home/whodo/public_html
As you can see above and below, the directory in question contains at least one script which was using more than the 25% CPU usage allocated to your account as per our terms of service. Because we were unable to identify the script (It was defunct in the process listing), we had no choice but to disable your entire public_html directory. Exact statistics are below:

I don't know much about this but what about Internode? They seem at least to be Linux friendly with their mirroring of Ibiblio.
I'm sure they host, and they are fast.
Just my 2c.

simple for now
It's back to simple website for now, at least until the difficult recurring error at the site is solved. It will take some time.
Darreljon is making available a wikibook:

It must be good to have the translations there, too.

Re: puppylinux.org taken down again!
There was plenty of warning: it's in HostGator's TOS.WhoDo wrote:Hostgator has killed off puppylinux.org AGAIN! That is the third time and also without any warning whatsover; just a "beg pardon" AFTER the event!
I note the HostGator plan is called "Baby Croc." Now without investigating, I can only deduce that this is a lower tier plan. Sometimes in the interest of saving money we short change ourselves, which I suspect is the case here....the directory in question contains at least one script which was using more than the 25% CPU usage allocated to your account as per our terms of service.
Linode offers both robust hardware and excellent plans. Just don't expect visiting their site to be like a visit to the Family Dollar store.
