Slrpnk.net is down

Looks like our servers are on the fritz again. Usually we aren't out of commission for too long. Hopefully we are back soon.

@Kris@feddit.org give the server a smack with the old convincer, will ya?

Me? I'm the punk...I think? Definitely a lot of solar chops, but I think a lot differently than my illustrious server members.

Usually we aren’t out of commission for too long.
Bad news on that front, from Lemmy General Matrix chat:

Every time this happens, I think to myself, I should back up and restore settings to my alts, so it's not as irritating next time. And then I forget.

Well, fortunately, it's the Fediverse, so you can make a backup account on one of the many alternate instances out there and keep on trucking until they come back up.

That's why I have this account. I only have to break it out once or twice a year, honestly. For the most part out server is pretty stable, but then every now and then, a rare Azorian moss creeps in though the window hosting the server, and begins to colonize. This results in much delicate work, as @ProdigalFrog@slrpnk.net and @poVoq@slrpnk.net carefully scrape the moss off the motherboards, using hori-hori knives imported directly from Japan. They then coax the moss onto several 9x13 Pyrex dishes loaded with a home made agar and begin the trek up Mount Pico, to relocate the moss to its natural habitat. This is only done under light or a full moon and with much chanting. If done right, a Satyr emerges from the bushes (erect phallus and all), playing melodic flute music, and thanks them for restoring the nomadic moss back to the wild. After a few moments of awkward silence for both the admins walk back down the slope, wondering what actually just fucking happened, and how this became part of the routine maintenance of the server.

I'm pretty sure the downtime is just for enforced grass-touching.

Lol yeah. I'm almost done reposting the original posts from the old community.

Who are we to question a process that works?

I really like that idea, yet here I am circumventing it.

No no no, silly. It's PHP, remember? P H P

poVoq here. I am starting to think I am cursed, because everything works fine (or is at least fixable with a remote server restart) until the second I go on a longer business trip and can't easily access the hardware.
Remote access is mostly lost, but I was able to triangulate the issue and of course it is something I had on my list of potential issues, but as a low priority item 🫠 At least it isn't the same problem again as in 2025.
What exactly triggered the issue is unclear though. I was still able to access the reverse-proxy server yesterday (shortly before it went down) and tried to do some updates for that php security problem in a VM that runs on the same machine. I thought I had those covered, but there is a slight chance that it is related and someone chained another exploit to escape the VM.
Anyways, it looks like the realistic / not overly optimistic scenario is that the server will stay down until christmas. I did have someone who could restart the servers on site until this summer, but they had to relocate to mainland Portugal for job reasons (tourism sector) and so they will also only return for christmas.
So yeah, not great at all, and I will have to think more seriously about how compatible this kind of self-hosting is with my current job, which limits my access to the servers for a few weeks at least once a year. It was easier during the pandemic times when I started all this, as deployments were shorter and more seldom back then.
