Up to Main Index Up to Journal for December, 2020 JOURNAL FOR SUNDAY 13TH DECEMBER, 2020 ______________________________________________________________________________ SUBJECT: A new home for WolfMUD DATE: Mon 14 Dec 01:59:13 GMT 2020 If you are reading this post then welcome to WolfMUD’s new home :) WolfMUD is now running on its own dedicated server. Previously the WolfMUD site and Git repositories were hosted on my employer’s server. Having started a new job recently it was time to find alternative hosting. Of course, I had to make things a little harder for myself in the process. I changed the server architecture from Intel to Arm and everything is accessible via IPv4 and IPv6 for the first time. Everything should have gone live around 5pm. I pushed the big red button, and ended up with a broken site for about four hours ;( The issue was of my own making. I’d copied and cribbed the configuration from the current setup. This left the webserver only configured for IPv4. When IPv6 traffic hit the server HTTPS requests were coming in on port 80 instead of 443 — what!? This left me scratching my head for ages. I’ve been monitoring the server for a while. Bots, spiders and web-crawlers have already found the new server — so everything appears to be running. If you find or have any issues please let me know: diddymus@wolfmud.org Now it’s late… goodnight ¦| zzzZZZ -- Diddymus Up to Main Index Up to Journal for December, 2020
