Is the Wiki Down?

[gordon]

Greetings everyone.

The wiki and forum are back up.

The problem I encountered was that I had purchased an extra 30G of storage space a few years back for some projects, and now we no longer needed it. The bluehost control panel for our virtual private server would not let me renew without that drive, so I kept renewing month by month until I could get that resolved. I requested all of the changes, including a year of support on the base system, well before the current month expired, but bluehost never serviced the request, let the current month expire, and shut the system off.

I'm going to seek an alternative cloud based resource for our needs. But now we are paid up for the next year.

I use a virtual private server, instead of a hosted system to avoid any unrequested updates. I don't like surprises any more than you do.

Gordon, could the most recent Wiki issues be related to issues with the FTP site? I have not been able to access the FTP site for a couple days. Thanks much.

Is anyone else having issues with the Wiki lately? Formatting looks strange and when clicking links I'm getting a lot of Not Found messages. Same results in Chrome, Firefox, and Edge so I am leaning towards something server side.

The wiki is misbehaving as you noted.

Here is a "work around" it works "Well Enough"

Go to google.com -- I expect other search engines to work, but I know google.com works.

Search for:
site: https://brulescorp.com/brwiki2 [Search item]

Example: site: https://brulescorp.com/brwiki2 Load Resident

The results will include the various wiki pages:

Good news, the Wiki is up and running again!

Is the wiki experiencing issues again? I have been using Luis' workaround for now but these issues have been occurring for a few weeks.
