Wow, what an accomplishment! Optigold and Filemaker are still running 24 hours since the last implosion.

Will wonders never cease!

Stay tuned!

Optigold Web server still crashing

Well the optigold / filemaker combo on OSX still dies periodically.. Only the web server portion.. God only knows how many orders I lose as a result.

Wednesday, December 5, 2007

Database Server up, Web Server down

So far so good a few weeks now with the db server on OSX.. Of course the DB server was never the MAJOR problem.. The web server however still periodically quits..

Figures...

Optigold Makes it through another weekend

Will wonders never cease. Not only does optigold make it through the weekend, it makes it through the Thanksgiving weekend/holiday...

Stay tuned.

Monday, November 19, 2007

Optigold makes it through the weekend - Barely

Well, Optigold hobbled through the weekend enough for us to sign up several new reseller accounts!

Just waiting for the new OSX Optigold server to crash (hopefully it does not) so I can write a cron to kick it in the ass...

Stay tuned

Thursday, November 15, 2007

Optigold Database on OSX day 3

Well, so far so good.. While the web server still managed the crash yesterday, the database server is still up at least.

Wednesday, November 14, 2007

Optigold Web Server still crashes

Well, even after the big move to Optigold on OSX, the web server still crashed last night.. Wonder how many more sales we lost as a result?

Tuesday, November 13, 2007

Moved DB server for Optiold to OSX

Well, I finally got my OSX Optigold Backend database running.. It was utter hell getting things going since I could not get the developer to send me the OSX version for FM Pro 5.5... In any event, after a long painful few weeks it is up and running... Filemaker/Optigold is still pathetically slow, but hopefully it will remain stable for once.

Stay tuned!

Optigold Web Server Crashes yet again

Well, a customer tries to log in, and as usual, Optigold crashes... Figures

Wednesday, October 31, 2007

Optigold is still running after 3 whole days.. Wow, I am so impressed!

Friday, October 19, 2007

Yep, you guessed it.. Optigold took a shit again

Twice in one day.. Back to back blow out crashes.. Optigold, WTF???

Monday, October 8, 2007

Optigold Crashes doubly bad!!!

So first the secure server pukes, then the Optigold database server crashes.. What the fuck is the problem with this software?

Monday, October 1, 2007

What do you think happened?

Ah, like Optigold the web server crashed again? Like, fur sure!

So what else is new?

Tuesday, September 25, 2007

Optigold crashes again

Ok, so OJ is in trouble again, and OG crashes again.. What else is nw?

Friday, September 21, 2007

Yep, you guessed it.. Optigold is still crashing

This time the DB server took a poop. Is there any help in sight?

Tuesday, September 11, 2007

No rest for the wicked... Optigold on 911

Well, amazingly, Optigold managed to stay up on September 11. Go figure....

Monday, September 10, 2007

Someone HELP ME!!!

So I have not updated this in a while? Truthfully, I have been way too frustrated.. My doctor told me to take a break from Optigold for a while as it was given me an aneurysm.

Well, as you might have guessed, Optigold is still crashing daily, sometimes 10 times a day.. Lately it has been the OSX based Secure/Online web billing server that had been taking a dump.. Customers are getting pissed... Ironically, the customers getting pissed are users of DP.

When they ask me why my billing system cannot stay up, I simply refer them to the owner of DP and the Optigold Forums over at DP...

Monday, August 13, 2007

Optigold Crashes yet again, but I have a new trick up my sleeve

I've set up a nice reboot system so I can remotely power cycle the DB server and the web server when Optigold takes it's usual mid-day shit and decides it just wants to stop working..


Monday, August 6, 2007

Optifuckup weekend..

I was over here twice this weekend rebooting Optigold or the Web server or bother.. What the fuck.. Why can't Optigold stay up???

Sunday, August 5, 2007

Well here I am rebooting Optigold on a Sunday

Mutha fucka!  Optigold managed to let a couple people sign up today before taking its usual shit.

Saturday, August 4, 2007

Optigold Saturday Crash

Damnit all!  Why can't Optigold stay up for more than one day!

Friday, August 3, 2007

Went Golfing Today - Optigold stayed up!

Can you believe it.  I was able to get out of the office for 18 holes and Optigold managed to stay up!

Thursday, August 2, 2007

Two days in a row - Optigold still crashing

I am sick of constantly babysitting this fucking thing.. It is so unstable..

Wednesday, August 1, 2007

WTF??? Optigold Crashes, yet again!

Argh. Welcome to another day in hell. Welcome to Optigold crashing again!!!

Tuesday, July 31, 2007

Optigold stays up for two sign ups!

Optigold managed to stay up long enough for two new hosting sign ups last night.. Amazing.. Imagine how well we would be doing if it would stay up all the time!

Monday, July 30, 2007

Saturday, July 28, 2007

Even the Optigold Download Link is down

What is going on??? http://www.digitalpoint.com/products/download.php

Returns:

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/.sites/28/site1/web/products/download.php on line 23

Could not connect
This is almost laughable.

Monday, July 23, 2007

I knew it was too good to be true. Optigold takes a shit again

Well the web server died today. Love this Optigold Stability. If it's not the database crashing, it is the web server.

Well time to reboot Optigold. So much for that 1 week uptime!

Optigold makes it into a new week!

Can you believe this? Optigold stayed up for an entire week, and here we are on Monday and it is still up.. There is no rhyme or reason to the sparatic instability of this product.

It is bound to crash again soon!

Sunday, July 22, 2007

Monday, July 16, 2007

Optigold made it through an entire weekend without crashing.

Someone call CNN.. I've got to get this to Leno, Dave, and Larry King!!! Amazing news! Breaking News!! Incredible News!!

Optigold did not crash for one entire weekend!!!

Friday, July 13, 2007

Optiglold made it through Thrusday

Well, the database anyway.. We did have that web server crash. You have to wonder. If Optigold was not using Filemaker as it's backend, would it really be crashing all the time?

Thursday, July 12, 2007

Well I spoke too soon!

Filemaker on OSX just took a shit... Lovely.. So the online portion of our billing system is down... WHAT THE FUCK OPTIGOLD!!! When will this shit end?

Three days in a row? A fucking miracle?

Monday, July 9, 2007

Well, as you might have guessed, Optigold took it's usual shit over the weekend. Lovely... Just took a call from another customer who wanted to give me money, but could not online because Optigold was down.. FUCK!!!!

HELP!!!

Thursday, July 5, 2007

Optigold makes it though the 4th of July?

Will wonders never cease. Optigold actually made it through Independence Day unscathed.

Now can it make it though the busy weekend?

I guess we will have to wait and see.

Tuesday, July 3, 2007

This is costing me a lot of money lately. I cannot even go out of town for a couple of days without Optigold crashing. What gives? Where is the fix? When will we get help?

Sunday, June 17, 2007

Optigold pukes, customers have problems

Here's an email from a customer today with regard to Optigold.

"Hi Mia.Net Billing Team,

I wrote you an email on saturday, that I was not able to login to the client account to place the new credit card information. Can you please check my account?"


These guys were trying to pay a large amount on a hosting account. They got frustrated, and we are out some big buck. All because Optigold cannot remain stable.

Friday, June 15, 2007

It's Friday and Optigold is still running.

Will Optigold make it through the weekend? I'm on vacation this weekend, so i sure as hell hope so.

Thursday, June 14, 2007

Optigold makes it past hump day!

Wow, it's Thursday and we are still up and running! Yeah!

Wednesday, June 13, 2007

Tuesday, June 12, 2007

Optigold Secure Server Crashes

What the fuck? So far the DB server has been stable as hell for a week... Twice now the Secure / Online Sign up server has crashed... Well, not really crashed.. It just hangs.

How the hell am I supposed to sign up customers when this happens. HELP!!!!

Lucky me, Optigold still running

Well, once again, I have another one of those week long stints where for no apparent reason, Optigold just keeps running.

Lucky me!

I did manage to kill the secure signup server however last week while testing some new signup pages for our new Hosting Service, HostingLizard.Com.

Other than that, so far so good.

Monday, June 4, 2007

Optigold; make it through two weekends?

Not this time my friend... Yep, Optigold took a puke yet again, leaving customers stranded for yet another weekend..

Time to go reboot!

Thursday, May 31, 2007

Could Optigold make it two weeks?

It's the Optigold Uptime, 2 Week Challenge!

Nearly 10 days without a crash... This has to be some kind of record...

Tuesday, May 29, 2007

Optigold makes it through the holiday weekend!

Wow, Optigold made it through Memorial Day Weekend without a crash. This has to be some kind of record.

Friday, May 25, 2007

Optigold makes it through the week?

This can only mean one thing. Optigold is destined to crash this weekend. And this being Memorial Day Weekend, that would not be a good thing.

Thursday, May 24, 2007

Optigold still up and at em'

Well, so far, so good.. It's been a few days, not sure how many, but here we are Thursday and Optigold is still running strong. That's good, because we had a few online signups the other day. The managed to make it into the system, and one even managed to add some email accounts without Optigold crashing.

So far, so good... How long it will last is anyone's guess.

Stay tuned!

Tuesday, May 22, 2007

Optigold still running today

Wow.. One whole day. I am impressed. Invoicing is now commencing.. Hopefully Optigold can make it through an entire week for once!

Stay tuned for more!

Monday, May 21, 2007

(POS) - Optigold Crashes, more money lost!

Well, it finally crashed again.. As if...

Optigold, can you every make it through the weekend? WTF?

ARgh!!!!!

Friday, May 18, 2007

Optigold makes it to Friday!

In a first, at least a first as I recall, Optigold made it almost an entire business week without crashing. Amazing.. Simply amazing. I have not idea what to thank for this dumb luck.

Stay tuned till next week!

Thursday, May 17, 2007

3 Days of Optigold Stability - Some kinda record!

Amazing.. Here it is Thursday and I've not seen a crash in several days. Optigold is still running.

Wednesday, May 16, 2007

Optigold Makes It through yet Another Night

Amazing.. This must be some kind of record! Humpday and Optigold is still running..

Well, time for invoices. Until next time!

Tuesday, May 15, 2007

Optigold makes it through another day!

Well, it made it through a second day. Optigold is still running, and invoices were able to go out this morning!

Monday, May 14, 2007

Optigold makes it through another night

Woooh... Thank God. No crash today, as of yet!

So far , so good.

Stay tuned.

Friday, May 11, 2007

Well the customer got in, after we rebooted Optigold of course

Well, my customer was able to get into the online billing and update his billing info, however when he went to change his password, Optigold just hung. It would appear that Optigold said FUCK YOU to the keychain on OSX and decided to ask for a fucking login password for it's God forsaken program linking crap implementation. I've seen it do this in the past, and the only fix has been re-installing the web server software.

What gives? Will there ever be a fix? Any update? HELP!!!

Optigold Crash - Another PISSED OFF CUSTOMER!

Well, as you might have guessed, the DB server died again... Of course this means online services stop working as well. Here is a nice email from a customer this morning as a result of Optigold's latest crash:

"ii) payment - cannot get through to
https://secure.hostdrive.com/customer/login.php - times out on me!!

I will phone later to sort it out! Need to do this today as I am travelling
again for another week from Sunday."


This customer is in ROME, so as you might guess, that phone call is going to cost some bucks. Wouldn't it be nice in today's day and age if a billing system actually remained stable enough to allow customers to pay online.

Who knows how many sales were lost as a result of this latest blunder.

Wednesday, May 9, 2007

All is well with Optigold this morning

Well, so far, so good.... Optigold made it through another night.

Stay tuned!

Tuesday, May 8, 2007

Restarting the Web Server after Optigold Crashes

Crap.. I forgot to restart the web server portion of Optigold after the database servers last crash.

Dammit!!!

Argh!

Well, restarted Optigold

We are starting a pool here at the office to see who guesses the next crash.

Stay tuned!

Spoke too soon! Optigold Crashes again

Well, here it is 2:30PM CST US, and Optigold died again. Right in the middle of some important signup, no doubt. Figures.... What gives? When will there be a fix for this bug?

Well, time to go restart it again!

Optigold is still running

Well, one day after another series of unstable days, Optigold is still up.

Give it some time, it will go down again. Hell, it goes down more often than Rosie O'donnel on a rancid crotch.

Monday, May 7, 2007

Will wonders never cease... Optigold fucking crashed again

WTF? What gives. Why does this application constantly crash? Why was it built using something has hideous and unstable as FileMaker?

Nothing like a weekend crash. I figure Optigold just cost me about $9k in weekend sign up revs.

Dammit!!! Will this God forsaken POS of an application ever remain stable for more than 3 days at a time???

Friday, May 4, 2007

Optigold CRASH--- It was only a matter of time

Well, it happened... Once again. After nearly 10 days of stability, Optigold took it's usual Optishit!

Dammit!

Thursday, May 3, 2007

Day 9, Holy SHIT!

9 Days of uptime with Optigold? This is a miracle. I do not know what to say.. Well, still knocking on wood, and I am not holding my breath.

In reality, it does this from time to time. I mean, it will run for days, perhaps weeks... Then out of the blue it will start crashing, sometimes several times a day, or every other day.

Stay tuned!

Wednesday, May 2, 2007

One Week Later WoW

Well, it has been over a week now. 8 Days to be exact and Optigold is still running. This is amazing. I'm not sure what this latest uptime stretch is all about, but knock on wood, as long as it's still up, I'm happy.

Stay tuned.

Tuesday, April 24, 2007

Optigold Crashed Yet Again

Well, as you might have guessed, Optigold Crashed.. This is costing me money.
