We should be almost done - the only thing that's left for me to do is transfer over the mail. Let me know if stuff acts weird.

Cheers!

IMAP works. Round Cube returns the error. If you have SquirrelMail installed, it works. Issue Track #2,451.

Thanks - you're right. I need to rebuild the search index.

UPDATE: I've rebuilt it; please give it a whirl and try now.

Quick update on errors reported over night.

One member at 04:11 am ET reported "Bad Gateway" error when attempting to logon. Eventually he was able to logon.

Another member at 07:00 am ET reported unable to logon, but eventually was able to.

Yes. The Java Virtual Machine ran out of memory last night around 3AM ET and was restarted at around 0830. It's a new JVM (it's 64-bit, the old one was 32-bit) so the same memory sizes I was using before might not be optimal. I've changed a few things and will monitor over the next few days. It's an unfortunate tuning process, but similar to some of the issues we went through with the old server when it was "new".

Cheers!

Thanks for the explanation. Startup glitches are to be expected.

EDIT: The member reporting unable to logon at 07:00 AM ET discovered the power to the modem was off.
