Site upgrades

[mark]

In preparation for Open Beta in a few days, this weekend we're upgrading the cluster running the site. This is going to take all weekend, but you shouldn't notice much of anything.

The technical details of these upgrades will be posted in dw_dev after everything is in place. In short, we're going from ~15 servers to ~40. We are also upgrading the ones we have from small (1GB of RAM) to medium (4GB of RAM).

Go you!

Lots of cheering from the sidelines here. :)

Hm. So, I suppose I probably should've tested this before I made the official release, but LJlogin 2.1.1 has DW login support... except that when I tell it to log out of my DW account, it makes a sessionexpire call to the (flat) client interface... and gets a 500 Internal Server Error back.

Given that I just fixed some code on my side for making that call -- and it works on other sites supported by LJlogin -- this makes me a little sad. :-)

Found the bug, fix is in the works. I'll have it pushed out in the next hour or so.

Excellent. Thank you.

Fixed, seems to work in my tests of LJLogin 2.1.1.

Also, I've never actually used LJLogin before, but wow! That's really darn nifty. I've always used two browsers to mangle two accounts, and with this addon I don't think I have to. Kudos!

Thank you for the info! I had the previous version. :)

I'm not sure where to report bugs, and this has probably already been reported, but when someone doesn't input a location in their profile, it displays as "Location: (states/regions/territories)" instead of just not showing a location at all.
