Title: Server Downtime
Post by: Arran on 10 03, 2021, 11:24:53 pm
CIT's main server (we have another small one which is now hosting the website and is luckily some where else) was in the OVH Strasbourg 2 data center. In the early hours of today this happened to Strasbourg 2:

So for those of you who were playing just before the server went offline, you were playing on a server that was literally melting inside a burning building.

Thanks to Cheeze, the forum has been setup to work on this server but as you can see any posts, private messages, etc that were made after the last remotely saved backup (05/03/2021 12:00 UTC+1) are gone forever.

The last in-game remotely saved database backup was 05/03/2021 17:00 so again anything you did after that date has been lost. We will make sure to make up for this loss, so at a minimum I'd say triple pay event for 2 weeks and you can post your own ideas. I'd give a load of cash to each account but it's a bit unfair if someone has access to multiple accounts which is why triple pay is fairer.

OVH are supposed to be providing us with a replacement server in another data center. So we need to wait a while to see about that, before we can start working on everything up again. Once a server is provided I would be able to get the basics up and running same day and everything fully working in 3 days.

Important note: Do not try to change the email address your forum account uses because this temporary server does not have email sending set up and you won't be able to login to your forum account.

Do not attempt to join the server that shows up on the main server list, some pathetic copy server is abusing an exploit that uses our server name and then redirects you to their main server which happens to have an identical looking login screen, don't be dumb enough to go through their shitty slow 90 MB download to then try and login with your account on there.

TEMPORARY SERVER: mtasa://91.121.96.47

Triple pay activated. What you do there will be used when we get a permanent server.

I hope you make sure that this other data center won’t be far way from the old one. Just for the ping issue

Will these new posts we make as of today removed or affected once the website servers stabilize?

This database will be moved over so anything you post here will 99% likely be moved over to the new permanent server.

Will these new posts we make as of today be removed or affected once the website servers stabilize?

"In RBX+GRA we have the stock of new servers, pcc, pci ready to be delivered for all the impacted customers. Of course for free. We will add 10K servers in the next 3-4 weeks." - https://twitter.com/olesovhcom/status/1369665936379281409

RBX and GRA are are very close to each other and is where the old server used to be hosted, it's probably like a 5ms difference.

If a group promotion occurred in the last 5 days and you see your group is a level lower, you're gonna have to request it again.
Community rank status is also rolled back, so if you have a community rank you're gonna have to request it again.

Arran we understand you and we understand exactly what happened with SBG2 servers, May God protect us from such misfortune. We hope you will fix everything as same as always, we are happy because the server is back and we lost only 5 days not everything, our story which started for me personaly in 2011-2012. Thank you  <3

Post by: Itachii on 11 03, 2021, 01:02:40 am
I really feel sorry for wasting those five days.  No, in terms of the answer, we are lucky we didn't lose our server because losing 5 days is nothing to the work of wasted years.  Thank you Arran for the arrangement and thanks to all the technicians who are trying and working hard to restore our server and I hope for the return of CIT as soon as possible. <3

Server was lagging too much lately . I don't think that's a coincidence

Yes, if Arran he remember that, we complained this few days ago in the forum becuse server have some problem (hosting) right here https://cit.gg/index.php?topic=371724.msg5451190#msg5451190 and see after that it happened this  :(

Well like other people mentioned, even tho we lost 5 days of work, We’re still grateful or glad that we still have our server and it’s not completely lost or gone. I hope things get better, I hope non civilian person was damaged or harmed during the burndown and I hope we’ll be back to our CIT better than ever and with more and positive energies.

Well, setting up everything for the new server and it is really a pain in the ass. Now, we are waiting for the administrator and the rest of the team to take an action. Thankfully, the Cit team has a backup database though there are gaps for 5 days.
Title: Re: Server Downtime
Post by: Atheer on 11 03, 2021, 04:37:36 am
Got a question, the data of the base that was until the server went offline don't exist anymore? You made a backup and restored it here, which means anything happened after the backup taking date is earsed.

I am curious to know this.
Title: Re: Server Downtime
Post by: Compl3x on 11 03, 2021, 05:52:48 am
Server community is about to go through the biggest deja vu lol.

From what I know, the server saves local backups every 6 hours, but the server is ashes. Luckily Arran has a full DB backup of 5 days ago. So anything that happened in the past 5 days never happened.

Arran said donations will be re-paid. But people that created accounts in the past 5 days or earned lots of cash, sad news for you.

People gonna evade so many punishments lol

Good news is: Arran said he'll keep triple payment for a few weeks and "other stuff"

Strasbourg 2 (where CITs server was hosted) was engulfed in flames and all servers that used to exist there have been destroyed. Any progress.etc after making a backup has been lost

Yes, unless you go to the remains of the fire and by some miracle find that the device that was holding CIT database survived the fire.

Never mind. I read again and it said that they are gone forever, so we need to post them again ourselves.

proly It's just a forum warn that it only requires time to be removed or you gotta request the warns, or I think Arran will provide a topic where you can request it all just don't worry everything will be fixed when the server got back.

Why don't you build a server host on your local, and host CIT Server on it? So this occurrence won't happen again.

Because if he does that, nobody would be able to play properly. If 10 or even 20 people connect you're going to have unbearable and unstable ping. Local hosting is a huge stress on your local connection.

Buying own machine requires a lot of cash, also you need to pay for power 24/7. Not going to count the loudness in house and how good your connectio needs to be to let it work smooth without any lags for players, ping and fps ones.

If you mean you have paid IRL money, just send in your paypal transaction ID again and you will get whatever you donated for. As the paypal website itr not effected by this.
But if you meant buying IG tag colors, then you will still have the money in your bank, try to find the seller and re-buy it.

WTF are you talking about... What's so hard to understand that EVERYTHING is reverted to when the backup was made... If you bought anything in-game obviously you won't have it when you login but any cash you spent to get it would be with you again. FYI there is only 1 donation reward that needs re-activating.

Pretty tragic and rough situation, hope the relocation goes along smoothly without too much of a hassle.

Through my longer than a decade play of MTA SA, CIT's been one of the few servers that stuck around for a long time, which I kind of took some solace in.
As if recent times have not been hectic enough heh, hope you guys bounce back fine.

Once you guys do get the new server up and running, might wanna conduct some stress tests on it just to see how it holds up during the worst case scenarios but I feel you guys would've done it already anyways.
Anyways again, good luck on getting things back online.

There might be some issues from shaders side tho. Mainly if someone has paid shaders for another server individual after the backup date (05/03/2021 12:00 UTC+1)  they'll probably lost their income as well as the one who bought the shader will still have the money he paid for.

There might be some issues and I'll try to solve them in the best way for both parties, however this being an ingame issue will take to have ingame server enabled to see the entity of losses. In the mean time I ask those who sold a shader with ingame money (AFTER THE DATE ABOVE) to collect as much evidence of their ingame transactions until we will be online again.

I just realised that because getting the server up and running in it's basic form (some scripts that download stuff like '/vehmods' won't work) isn't difficult I might as well get it running on this server so there is some playing that can be done because we have no idea how long OVH will mess around for imagine if we were waiting 2 weeks like fools when it wouldn't take more than a few hours for me to get the basics up and running which can be used until a proper server is given as a replacement and I will move the database from here to there.

I will probably do this tomorrow.

so much for me to do it all.
nothing can replace cnr like cit friends
I played in early 2013 and recently I saw the biggest problem.
I will send enough prayers
so that everything can be as before :)  :'(

Hey there, my friend saw my sadness and wrote a poem, even if it was funny with 4 verses in the sense of a joke ;) . I wanted to share these poems with you. (I liked it, maybe all of you liked it too ;) )

Burned OVH company.
Definitely don't worry.
They said it would be temporary.
No more flavor left.

Those who are addicted to that game.
Now his eyes are full of tears.
Those who wither like flowers.
It attracts all the attention.

It will be born from the ashes.
The Simurg bird will return alone.
The colonels will be generals.
Realize this fact to all of you.

O CIT, listen to me.
Do not swim players.
Don't trust OVH.
Strengthen control.

Everything will be just like it was 5 days ago from the incident but what happened in these 5 days would be gone (Updates, punishments, promotions, demotions and other sort of stuff.)

I suggest increase the current Season. because on this way we will not get the skin pack of day 90th in battle pass.

please increase season period.
But... server is just getting back 5 days, so everything you had 5 days before the incident, you will still have it, whats the point of it?

The end date of the battlepass is 100 days after the release so you can skip only 10 days so you can get the skin pack. The server restart doesn't make the season end later (Relerx didn't say anything about it) so you lose your chance to get the skin pack.
Season will end later for this forced downtime, of course. Don't worry, probably will extend it by another 10 days

Update: Ordered a new server (that will take an unknown time to be delivered) because this is what OVH have taken 2 days to tell us to do when I could have ordered one 2 days ago and already be almost fully setup on a new permanent server by now  :fp:

A proposal:

Go in-game randomly, buy things on shop that are on a reasonable price, like iron, oil, nitrous, engine parts, you could even go for higher like VIP levels or tag colors?

That will compensate players for sure, and clear the market, and players will have to buy them again but for a higher price, so players will have to use more money. I mean, look at it as monopoly.

Okay that hurts but it is virtual money, I mean, it is not so worth it, that amount in a short time you recover it but we have to understand that these things take time and we will have our returns
In the same way, they should not waste time having a complaint or talking to the administrators to get your money since as this happened from the server before, many people would abuse and earn a lot of money in their favor by lying and scamming

You keep going on with this tactic of attrition trying to get something. Quit it. You'll only piss off Arran and I and get even less in return.
I'm working to fix issues with shaders and they'll be handled when the full access is back for me. Arran is working on having a decently working server. Enough with the arguing over lost stuff because I already explained around how things will work, what are our limits and what happened. Yet you still keep on coming here "but I lost this, but that doesn't work". Once again, give it an end.

None of you are getting "refunds" and we lost all the log files too so obviously there is no proof you lost anything that is somehow worthy of being refunded.

End of all discussions.

It's lagging/there's a delay every day at night, Would be amazing if you could solve this problem, And I made sure it's not my network, Since the issue was for too much more players.

It's lagging because it's a TEMPORARY SERVER it's hosted on a non high performance server.

Typical ass licker... Arran should have taken daily back ups. It's on him.

Yeah... I'm responsible for a data center burning down that has put millions of websites offline, why don't you set up your own server if you're so good. :fp:

Is there anyone who can fix Live Map or only MikeJones can do that?

I'm not fixing any non essentials till we finally get new server delivered.
