WSA: Wurmpedia Downtime

Recommended Posts

Last Friday we made the first arrangements to move the Wurmpedia and other web services to a new server. Unfortunately this has caused extended downtime for the Wurmpedia. We apologise for the downtime and hope to have it resolved on Monday.

Yes for now you can access the Wurmpedia through the cache pages. Just know that none of the links as well as the search function will not work due to the google cache page links not leading to cache pages but the actual pages. (Come on google step up your game). However, there is a tutorial in the Wurmpedia Maintenance section of these forums explaining how to access them. Thanks to the Staff for working so hard to getting it back up. Lets hope that when Rolf moves the live servers of the game that it doesn't end in the same way.

You must have misread - the game servers are not moving. The web servers are moving.

 

This might result in a short period of downtime as the client's JNLP is hosted on one of the web servers. The downtime will be while the DNS updates and is unavoidable.

Ah, my apologies. I am not great with the whole coding the game. As I have said multiple times I am more of a front facing developer in web design. Therefore, I do not know what moving the web servers entails. But it puts me at ease that the game will not be down. Thank you Keenan.

Essentially, if you're in-game or the launcher has loaded up to "Play" before the downtime - you can log in just fine. Otherwise you may get a failure when it tries to check for updates. Those already in-game won't feel anything, and the DNS should not take long to propagate.
