Website Difficulties 5th-7th April 2019

By Webmaster Peter Millington

We wish to apologise for the Tristan website being out of action for about 40 hours from the evening of Friday 5th April until the afternoon of the 7th April.

The problems were due an upgrade of the server by our hosting company that unfortunately did not go according to plan.

There was no service at all from about 9:00pm on the Friday, and the website failed to work correctly once the server was reinstated on the Saturday morning. We worked with out hosting company to diagnose the problem, and were able to implement a partial solution by Saturday evening that allowed the home page and most of the information pages to be displayed, but not news pages. We were, however, able to show a warning messages about the problem on every page.

The problems were completely resolved at about 2:00pm Sunday 7th April, and the warning messages were removed shortly afterwards.

We aplogise for any inconvenience that this interruption in service has caused.
