Thread "DrunkDuck site issues post-server migration" in forum "Comic Talk and General Discussion *"

Posted at 9:01AM, Jan. 17, 2011

Hi everyone.

So the site is back up and on a new server, but obviously the move has created additional bug issues, many of which we're aware of and are working quickly to resolve. Anyone who runs across a problem on the site, please post it here and I will continue to compile the list and forward it on to our support team.

Additionally, if you'd rather not deal with the loading issues associated with posting, please feel free to email any problems to info@drunkduck.com

Again, we hope to get these things resolved ASAP and have the site running smoothly again. I will continue to update the DD Twitter and Facebook as I learn more.

We're very sorry for the inconvenience, guys.

They can also post about their issue on the DD LJ site here:

It's open to all for just these sorts of problems! ^_^

It's been really spotty for me the past ten minutes. It's gone from not loading at all, to loading REALLY slowly and links not working, to running just fine and smooth (and back to slow and broken again). It doesn't always take me to the comic when I click on a comic from the front page.

But it feels like somebody's back behind the curtain still turning knobs, so I may be speaking too soon.

I have noticed that my preloaded comics are all one day behind. For example, instead of loading a comic on the 17th, it loaded on the 16th. Not a big deal, but something I noticed.

EDIT: I just took a look at more of my comics, and Cubicle is completely screwed up. I cannot open its page, and some of the images (like the banner in my sig) are missing.

I find it really embarrassing how many "well the site feels completely broken so post about it here" threads we get compared to basically every site ever. I'm sure there is little Wowio could have done to make this go any smoother than it is, since transferring data from DD amounts to getting a beat-up car across country and hoping it doesn't break down.

Next time the following happens, I may take screencaps to help out. I've gotten several "access denied" errors when trying to read comics. In a few cases the extension /B/ (lol) will appear before a comic's name, and the message "this page is unavailable" (or something to that extent) appears under the site navigation and banner. For some time I couldn't get MyFavorites or MyComics to drop down properly, but that seems to be working now.

Well, besides the painfully slow loading time, like lefarce, I can't get to some comics, but it's a little different for me. When I try to access comics from the MyFavorites section in the right side of the site, it takes me back to the main screen with "not found" in the url (the main screen looks fine though).

Several of my comics are not working. I did notice a pattern. Their titles start with a D or a C. I'm guessing A-D titled comics are not working.

Same issue here, my comic will not load, getting a 403 Forbidden error.

Well they did say that they had issues with A-C, on their facebook page, I'm guessing that this is connected to that.
