[Completed] All servers - kernel upgrades - AussieHost.com Web Hosting - Host Multiple Domains on Fast Australian Servers

Aussie Bob · 18th August 2009, 10:12 PM

We're upgrading all servers tonight, to protect them from an exploit. This will be happening shortly, as each server is rebooted with the new kernel. I'll update this thread shortly . . . .

P.S. This was a rather urgent upgrade, so sorry about the limited heads up. It is 10:15pm, so we've waited as long as we can before starting this.

Oops, yep, all done.

This exploit wouldn't happen to have any relation to the ongoing 500 internal server error I'm having on my forums would it Bob?

I'm still trying to find a solution to my lodged support ticket...

Nope, the issue is non related, as the kernel upgrades were done last night and the PHP issue has just happened in the last 30 minutes or so. The admins are checking into this. Shouldn't be too much longer.

Announcement made in Reef server forum - http://forum.aussiehost.com/reef-ser...php-issue.html
