Forum:Moratorium on file uploads starting Sunday

Starting Sunday, May 05th, Ken plans on migrating the existing Codex over to a new server. He wants us to stop all file uploads prior to Sunday. Hopefully everything is smooth sailing from there. Dungy (talk) 19:32, 3 May 2013 (PDT)


 * Didn't you just break this with your U6SE uploads? --Browncoat Jayson (talk) 13:04, 5 May 2013 (PDT)
 * It should be OK. Just don't tell anyone. Dungy (talk) 13:40, 5 May 2013 (PDT)
 * Does anyone know when I can upload the rest of the armour, items et al of Ultima VII? --Arthgon (talk) 16:25, 6 May 2013 (PDT)
 * Judging from Ken's Facebook, it likely won't be happening until tomorrow. Dungy (talk) 18:17, 6 May 2013 (PDT)
 * Codex is on a new server. Feel free to upload files again. Let me know if there are any problems. -- Fenyx4 20:58, 9 May 2013 (UTC)
 * It just could be something with my computer, but the latest uploads from the Armour Values and the knife from Ultima VII is acting up. Could it be that there went something wrong or something? How to fix it? --Arthgon (talk) 20:29, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

Well, the thumbnails don't work (only new ones), so there seem to be issues.--Tribun (talk) 20:38, 11 May 2013 (UTC) Origin FX-Engine shows the error with the thumbnails.--Tribun (talk) 08:14, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Thumbnails should be fixed now. -- Fenyx4 12:47, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
 * There still seem to be some issues, such as here: Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss. --Sega381 (talk) 14:23, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
 * That one was failing due to the source being ginormous. It was 50MB. I shrunk it down to about a MB and it thumbnailed up fine. Thanks for pointing it out. Let me know if you spot more. -- Fenyx4 18:25, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you for changing that large picture of the advertisment of UU. It seems that I totally forgot about it. This was one of the things of MyToDo list. Ooops. Thanks. --Arthgon (talk) 20:30, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

This may have nothing to do with the server change, but if you try to modify anything in the Ultima I article and then save your change, the following message from the spam filter shows up (NOTE: I can't even show the full message here as is it again flagged as spam):


 * ''Spam protection filter
 * The text you wanted to save was blocked by the spam filter. This is probably caused by a link to a blacklisted external site.
 * The following text is what triggered our spam filter: 09.jpg ''

Same thing with the Computer Ports of Ultima I, and probably other similar pages. There seems to be something funny with the spam filter, as this doesn't really make sense. To start with, the image it is referring to was already in the article, and apart from that, it is just the name of an internal image, no web link. Maybe something got broken in the spam filter with the transfer? --Sega381 (talk) 03:44, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
