We're currently experiencing server issues that are preventing us from processing new fic submissions. Don't worry - everything through last weekend is fully backed up, but it may take some time to get things completely up and running again. You can continue to submit new fics, but we cannot guarantee they'll be uploaded to the site before July 20.
If you have further questions, or if you're an expert in PHP with time to volunteer, please contact help @ fictionalley.org.
Er ... are the servers down again? :)
ReplyDeleteIt's the sixth of Aug., and i haven't been able to get to Fictionalley park since yesterday...are the servers down or is it a problem on my end?
ReplyDeleteUm, may I ask what's going on? I can't view FAP either (I get a database error).
ReplyDeleteClearly, there's either server difficulties, or maintenance - I seem to recall them having a problem with database post-moving, where fics didn't get uploaded at once, or something. Perhaps they're fixing that and it's taking longer than expected, or else something crashed and it's taking a while to get it back up. I'm sure it will get resolved sometime soon, or else they'll issue some explanation somewhere.
ReplyDeleteIf it's maintenance, it would have been nice to have advance warning, though.
It's been 48 hours since I have been able to get onto either FAP or any fic chapters. I'm guessing that there is a server error and that it's being worked on, so I'll wait and keep checking back here for updates.
ReplyDeleteHmm ... While doing fic research earlier I noticed the HPWíki didn't work either. Unless I'm mistaken FictionAlley maintains/have close cooperation with HPWiki, so perhaps it's on the same server as FAP?
ReplyDeleteHope it resolves soon! I don't want to use HPLexicon!
Okay, it's been 4 days and I still can't get on. All I get is "database error". Is anyone working on this?
ReplyDeleteAnonymous--I just realized they updated their livejournal as well. They updated it Monday.

Thanks for posting that livejournal link. That puts my mind much more at ease. :)
ReplyDeletei cannot open fictionalley.org/authors/schoenemaedchen/tlttt.html
ReplyDeleteah. boo... I just finished chapter 10 out of 11 in beautiful world. and now I can't load any of them. I hope the server comes back up soon. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteIt's the 27 of June 2010 and I haven't been able to access the Park or any of the fics since the day before yestersday...are the servers down again?
ReplyDeleteAnonymous--I can't access the park or the fanfics either. Must be something with the server. (I haven't had time to check until now.)
ReplyDeleteSame problem here, haven't been able to access the forum for two days, and before that it was availiable on and off for a week or so. More issues?
ReplyDeleteAnonymous--they updated their livejournal the Sunday before last. I've written the link in another comment. I didn't understand what the problem was (I'm not very technical) but it seems they're working on it.
ReplyDeleteIt is really a shame they don't update this blog, as well, when the site doesn't work ...
"data base error" I hope this gets resolved soon.
ReplyDeleteEr, was this written in 2009 as it says, or 2010?
ReplyDeleteLDTillustrations--yes, the blog post was written last year.
ReplyDeleteHowever, there's more information on their livejournal. The link is found above. :)
