site maintenance tonight

Tonight, we are upgrading one of our two webservers. This means:

* The site may be slow to load, since we're running on a single webserver until we finish our testing.

* Once we upgrade the webserver, we are going to swap the two webservers in the pool so that all requests go to the new, upgraded server, to verify the new functionality.

This upgrade will allow us to run a newer version of one of the modules we use, which will in turn fix a bug with our content importer. I'll update this entry once Mark has finished the work.

EDIT, 0353 EDT: We are now serving from the upgraded server. The site may still be slow in places while we verify functionality.

I ran the importer again after the upgrade and am still getting the same error. :( I rambled talked about it on IRC.

Yeah, this upgrade won't affect your imports. I still haven't looked into them. I'll try to get to that today!

Sorry! I could've sworn someone said something about me retrying in reference to the upgrades, but that was in backscroll and early this morning, I probably misunderstood. *facepalm*
