Hello everyone. If you've been browsing PPM recently, you might have faced a few evil error 503s, service unavailable messages. They happen because PPM uses more processes than it is allowed to use. The main site, forums, several internal scripts, sites from hostees and our mobile site may stimulate Apache to generate new processes and since they are all in the same huge account (unlike Revora and other places), PPM usually gets more affected by this problem.

This time, our attempt to tone down these problems will be to transfer the OS SHP Builder and Voxel Section Editor III update services into different accounts.

For this reason we highly recommend you to not install these programs until the transfer is over.

This news post will be updated once each transfer begins and ends. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Update 1: VXLSE III is being transferred right now. The installation program will not work at this moment.

Update 2: VXLSE III has been fully transferred and it is working again. OS SHP Builder  is being transferred right now. The installation program will not work at this moment.

Update 3: Both VXLSE III and OS SHP Builder installation files were moved to new accounts. This operation is now finalized and everyone can install both programs again.

Hello guys, we are going to start with VXLSE III first.

VXLSE III auto-repair tool (installation) will not work in the next minutes. Once it's finished, I'll update this topic.

Nice work. Also good to see you finally found the main reason for the 503's.
Are you going to split DTA's, TI's and other mods into different accounts too (if possible)?

The increasing fan community for the mods using the client to update them, surely also causes some stress for the server. Not sure if it's really comparable though.

DTA and TI were splited in the last year. The other hostees are still in PPM's main account.

We use Pingdom to measure master server and website availability for OpenRA. Might be also handy for you. There are links to register free accounts on the bottom of the pages.
