Anyone else who use FH noticed a hiccup in their support system recently? I've been trying to get through to them for about a week now through their ticket system and via ICQ, although havn't had much success.

Strange as they would normally reply pretty fast :( Can't get our site online till this is sorted sigh :(

I've been down all weekend and I can't get them to reply to support tickets, ICQ, PM, voicemail - nothing. This can't be good...

This has gone a little too far now, one too many hosts being down for more than 2 days (most will probably never be back up)

EH, CW, EH, HP, FH, SH

.....maybe we can make a word out of it? :D

Notice how 5 of the 6 hosts mentioned has the word "host" as part of their company name.

Maybe it's a sign? :eek:

As far as I can tell, my server is still there. I can still ping it, and it sent me a bunch of Apache error messages yesterday before it crashed (for the second time).

This leads me to think that if I can get ahold of someone at that data center, they could reboot the server and I could at least get a copy of my databases off of it.

I don't suppose anyone knows what data center in New Jersey Flying Hosts used? They called it "NJC"...

AHHHH!

Yes, they use VDI.net, but I guess that nobody go to reboot your server without their authorization, or at least they shouldn't reboot your server without theri authorization.

Cool - that's good info to have. I called them and they're supposed to call me back shortly. We shall see...

Success! They've been sold to a company called "interserver". I called the number on the VDI.net website, and they were able to get me through to the interserver people. The site is back up now. :)
