It did lift my spirits to see the page turn from "It works!" to the the furtopia mainpage.  Thanks for the great work.

Just another update here to let any new applicants who registered for an account here at Furtopia know, that the staff cannot process/approve new registrations at this time due to the server work which is being done. Any person who registered at Furtopia in the last few days, Your account is "on hold" and has not been rejected. Any person who registers for an account now or in the next several hours or days, your account will also be "on hold". Once the server work is done, the staff will review and process all registrations as soon as we can.
We are sorry for any inconvenience this has caused and we hope to have things running smoothly again very soon. Again, please be patient and we will make further updates as they become available. Thanks. :)

Ok forums are now on the main server.  Mail should be working too.  Let me know if you notice any problems with these services.

are the server upgrades complete? i've watched my site change a few times today, from either not working in pieces, or working completely, and once it went back to being the furtopia main page, but thu all this i haven't been able to get into my ftp. i'm confused. if the upgrades are finished what do i have to do to get back into my ftp?

also furry photoframe is acting weird. it like, hangs, and you have to press the "stop" button on yoru browser for the stuff to actually show up.

apologies if there is still work being done.

Probably gonna be awhile since he's gotta edit everyone's mysql to reflect the changes in the server / site paths, then get them all imported back into the system. Then theres optimizing all of those databases to improve speed/load times, and whatever all comes after that. Considering how many web accounts are on furtopia, its suprising how much has been done so quickly.

I am half done with mysql and I'm fixing paths as I go. 

ryokox I made a earlier post saying how you need to log into your web portal to re-create your ftp.  Read the post and try creating your ftp (I suggest this as your web portal can be VERY useful to you).  If you have trouble after that I'll recreate your ftp myself.

No I think he's already got one, cause i've been getting connection timeouts most the day. I just figured it was disabled for all the mysql work.

Do you have "passive mode" turned on in your ftp client?

tried setting filezilla into active mode and it seems to have connected.

Sometime later on, can you set it to allow for folder deletion? got rid of the old personal phpmyadmin, files are gone but folder stucture remains. Doesn't have to be anytime right now considering how busy you are and all you've got on your plate atm.

Yes, the FTP changed.  You can read WhiteShepherd's post here that talks about setting up the FTP.  Following what he says there should take care of the problem.  If it doesn't, post here again.

You seem to have accidentally put in http://whiteshepherd's%20post%20here/ as the URL.  What's the correct one?

I can't log into dtc because my password has a disallowed symbol in it.

*facepalms*

Alright, I corrected it.  Last night was a late night for me. x.x

Anyway, looks like it was linked by someone else.  I'm not sure what to do if there's a disallowed symbol, though. :o

unfortunately that thing ALSO refuses my password.
so no way I can get in to restore my FTP :/

I wonder how old was the database rollback because I remember that whiteshephard helped change my password after some russian dude got into and staretd putting music and warez on it.

Been working a lot but still updating.  I'll fix your FTP Cesarin in the morning.


I've taken the IRC server offline to preform a important security software update.  IRC services should be restored in 12 hrs.

Hi, Just wanted to say that I did make the changes for ftp logging a day or so ago and it worked. But currently I can't seem to log in at all.

If I'm trying to connect through an FTP program, what should I enter as "Host"?  Because right now, I can't log in; I'm getting an "Unable to make a connection." error.  :(

host is still ftp.furtopia.org port 21

for your name is yourname@yoursite.org yourpassword

might need to set your ftp client into active mode
