I just thought I try to create a new post with a picture.

On New, it only offers me a URL option (no upload) On Old, it says: Post "https://./pictrs/image": dial tcp: lookup . on 10.43.0.10:53: no such host. there doesn't seem to be anything here

It'll let me do if I just go the endlesstalk.org (no frontend) though. This was what I was testing.

It's on New that I'd really like to be able to use to do it though.

Let me know, if anything is not working!

Images are currently not working, since it seems there been corrupted files in the image service. I will probably need to use a backup to get it working again, so some images might be lost.

EDIT: Images from 16/07 16:00 CET to 17/07 13:45 have been lost, but the image service is now working again.

I think I will do more frequent backups to avoid losing too many images, if it happens again.

After moving the site I added an auth proxy by mistake to endlesstalk.org, so it was impossible to access.

This has now been fixed and I apologize for the mistake. I will test in a private browser the next time, to avoid this issue.

The database and images has grown too much for the current host to handle.

Which means I'm forced to move to a new host. The images service isn't currently working correctly because of this, so some images might not be saved. The database seems to be working fine.

EDIT: ETA changed to 16:40. The site will be redirecting to a maintenance site, while it is down. EDIT2: Has now been moved to new host. All images hasn't been moved over yet, so some might be missing for a little bit.

To avoid missing posts and comments the site will be down, while the upgrade is happening.

EDIT: I will try a new deployment, which should provide zero downtime(blue-green), but if anything goes wrong, there still might be some downtime.

EDIT2: Due to some preparation I had to do for the new deployment rollout, I had to upgrade sooner, than I had mentioned. There was a little downtime, but no comments or posts were lost.

This site has been down for about an hour.

The cause of the downtime, was that the vps, where the site is hosted had an issue.

To avoid this issue in the future, I will move to a different host in the next hour. Therefor some posts and comments might be lost.

EDIT: Has been moved to new host. Comments and post for the last 5-10 min might be lost.

Hello

I'm moving to a new setup, where the database and image service are hosted in the same setup. Currently they are seperated from the main setup in k8s.

This means some images might not get uploaded and post/comments might be missed as well.

I expect it to take around 10-15 mins.

The image service will be moved to a new host with more storage soon(5-15 mins). There will be a small period, where images might be lost, if uploaded.
