88 Miles is getting a server upgrade and some spit and polish on Sunday 20 Jun 2010. The site will br unavailable for around 30 minutes starting at 2:00 PM (GMT +0800 – Click here to convert to your local time).
We are quite excited about this upgrade, and it has been a long time in the making, so we would love to hear your feedback on Monday!
The server has been restarted successfully. I’ll be looking into the configuration to stop this happening again.
Again, thanks for you patience.
88 Miles is currently experiencing some server issues. We are working with our hosting provider to fix the problem.
Sorry for any inconvenience
Just a quick note that 88 Miles will be down for about 30 minutes on Friday, 23 May from 6am UTC (2pm Perth time), as our hosting provider will be performing some hardware upgrades.
Sorry for any inconvenience that may cause.
Just a quick note to let you know that 88 Miles will be down for maintenance on January 25th 2008 between 10am and 10:30am AWST (GMT+9).
During this time, we are moving to a new server to increase the capacity and speed of the system — I have done a couple of test runs, so that side of things should be fairly smooth. I only really envisage 5 minutes of actual downtime, but with DNS delegation, you never know!
During that time, you won’t be able to punch in or punch out of projects — however, if you are punched in on a project, the system will remember it and you should see the running task when it comes back online.
If you have any questions, please contact us me via the MadPilot Productions website.
Thanks for your cooperation, and sorry for the inconvience

Everything is running again!
Thanks for your patience.
Some of you may have noticed that 88 Miles has been down for athe last hour or so — currently Media Temple (88 Miles’ host) is performing some maintenance, which is causing the distruption.
The service should be restored within the next half hour — I appologise for the inconvience this has caused.

Apologies to those who have had some problems logging into the site in the past few days — as you would probably know, 88 Miles has moved over to a Media Temple Grid Server who run a Apache+Mongrel proxy system.
This was playing havoc with the SSL detection script. This has been fixed now
Thanks,
Myles
The maintenance went swimmingly, and everything seems to be back up and running happily. So what did this upgrade bring you?
This was mainly an internal database schema change to pre-empt some cool, new exciting features in the near future, however, there it also included some minor interface tweaks (Keep the feedback coming!). For those of you using webservices, you should notice that they are more stable now but the big change is for business users.
If you are a business beta tester all of your staff have the ability to add, edit and remove both companies and projects, which they couldn’t do before. You can also mark companies and projects as private, so only you can see them. There will be finer grain access control being rolled out really soon
So, as usual, I ask the business beta testers to test, test, test and if you find anything please let me know.
Keep an eyeout, because there will be some cool features rolling out shortly…
Cheers,
Myles
As mentioned a couple of days ago, we have some scheduled maintenance to do, so we’ll see you in about 15 minutes!
Thanks,
Myles
