Site has been down for a period. Something broke during live cloning of the virtual server. Managed to get the site up and running on a backup server. I do not think any data has been lost.

An OS update on the servers broke the forum database. The database has now been repaired and the forums should be up and running again.

Had some memory issues on our servers that brought the SQL server down. Do not know what caused it, but a reboot solved it. Lets hope it does not come back.

Updating OS on servers. Site might go down for short periods during reboots.

Site is up and again. Please report any problems here. Not sure what happened. With some manual interventions I was able to boot the virtual server, and once up it boots normally again. Not really sure what the problem was 🙃 Virtual servers are fantastic... while they work 😅

CFD Online is down after an OS upgrade. We are working on it, but currently have no estimate on the down-time, it will take hours, perhaps days. No data has been lost, but the virtual server running the site refuses to start after the OS update 🙁

After a few hours of sleep I finally manually was able to start the virtual KVM-server running CFD Online. It requires manual boot though, not sure why, so something is broken. Expect sudden down-times today while I debug this.

Something is seriously wrong with the virtual server. Expect a longer down-time. 🙁

We forgot to renew our SSL certificate so you will get a warning when you visit CFD Online now. Still safe to visit though and a new certificate has been ordered and will be installed asap.
