IPCT IPCT Upgrade Tonight! - Oct. 11, 2019

[Mike]

Tonight starting around 11PM EST I will start upgrading IPCT's software across all platforms! I anticipate up to 8 hours of down time, but I'm aiming to keep it under 4.

For the past 2 months I have been updating all of our Tools, plugins, etc. and developing / testing the upgraded platform. There are a lot of exciting new features in the new platform as well as the infrastructure to further develop IPCT in ways that we are currently restricted. Immediately following the upgrade will be development of more useful tools & features.

The IPCT Store will stay open during part of the update but will also close for a few hours to undergo updates as well.

I'll see you all over there!

Wow! Exciting.
I remember well all the feelings of nervous excitement when doing upgrades.
And the satisfaction when the plan comes together.
As this one will.

Yup looks like everything is intact, reaction time is very good, I bet you are ready for bed, very good job as usual. Get some sleep.

There are still some large cron jobs going on in the backend so it won't be up to 100% speed yet, plus i'm running a backup..but it is looking real good!

I think I am going to grab some sleep now, or try to at least

Hello @Mike
I'm seeing what appears to be a problem.

With my Android 6 phone, using both Chrome 77.0.3865.116 and the Mi browser V11.1.7-g the log-in with the correct password appears to work but access remains as guest.
With an incorrect password, there is a complaint about the wrong password.

**edit**
Hmm... scratch the above.
I restarted the phone and access is normal again.
A bit odd, as the phone is 100% stable.

Is anyone else using a smartphone browser for access?
