SERVAGE HOSTING LOOSING DATA? SITES READING FROM WRONG DATABASES

Jan 14 - 16:01 GMT
Customer

This might be even a huge security issue as at Servage Hosting Sites read data from "nonexisting" databases. Nonexisting as those databases aren't mentioned in database.yml.

Case as an example:
Customer A deletes a database from database.yml - normally then no content from this database will show up. At Servage Hosting it is just the opposite. If you delete the database Entry from database.yml of your ruby application then the complete data still is readable - even it is actually no more existing.

It seems that Servage Hosting has a BIG PROBLEM with their Cluster Technology and Caching of Customer Pages. Since Hours 2 Sites are showing WRONG CONTENT and the Support is even not answering to this major problem.

Customer

It is still the same sites http://www.t3log.info and http://redmine.t3pack.info

Both should show the same content!!!! at the moment as both are connected to the same database but BOTH show contentfrom a database which isn't existing anymore since HOURS.

SERVAGE Prozess? - WER HAT NOCH PROBLEME - WHO ELSE HAS PROBLEMS WITH THEM?

Sie verstehen sehr gut DEUTSCH Bitte leiten Sie die gesamte Angelegenheit UNVERZUEGLICH weiter an Steffan Fallesen

Sie sind eine DEUTSCH FIRMA, sind in Deutschland ansaessig also koennen Sie auch DEUTSCH sehr gut verstehen, bzw. finden jemand - z.B. Steffan Fallesen, der DEUTSCH kann.

Sie haben nun schon den ganzen Tag mit absolutem NICHTSTUN geglaenzt und wir verzeichnen dadurch Verluste. Bis gestern ging unsere Seite einwandfrei und seitdem JULIE gestern an ihr rumgemacht hat geht sie NICHT mehr.

Wir haben versucht unser DEMO das noch einwandfrei arbeitet mit der LIVE Datenbank zu verbinden, doch s wird seit Stunden nur die DEMO Datenbank angezeigt, die ueberhaupt nicht mehr in database.yml drinnensteht.

Durch IHR nichtstun sind uns erhebliche Schaeden entstanden die wir so nicht stehen lassen koennen.

According to Steffan Fallesen, founder of Servage, in an interview with Ipwalk, ''Most new customers are gained via customer referrals and we are very proud of this. We do not want to be a high profile company. Instead we focus on bringing the customer the best possible service at a good rate.''

HA - HA - HA - I guess meanwhile nobody who ever dealt with your terrible support will agree on this!

WE NEED OUR PROBLEMS SOLVED AND NOT KEPT ON HOLD ENDLESSLY AND CAUSED BY YOUR STAFF

Hi Mark

We have done this the whole day and our lawyers are meanwhile preparing their stuff as YOU are constantly destroying our good work due to your NONRESPONDING mentality. You are a GERMAN COMPANY, German Courts will be getting this issues as we are waiting since 24 Hours for help for a problem one of your Support Members - JULIE - has caused and only received stupid answers.

We have very valuable customers like **** who weren't able to work today with Redmine which draw us back a complete day!!!

This is only one customer as an example. There are also other SERVAGE Customers with HUGE SITES and **** which couldn't work either.

So please send us Address of Company, Responsible Person, Handelsregistereintrag No - Company Registration Number, Court which is responsible for lawsuits (all German Companies which are registered have it)

We tried to contact you via phone and no response
We marked the complete issues as URGENT but you didn't answer the issues
You are a GERMAN Company and therefore GERMAN will be the MAIN LANGUAGE.

If you don't believe for who we are working check the database which didn't get loaded into t3log.info I guess then you know it better ;-)

I check back in 15 Minutes and I hope I will see the ALL Answers to ALL my questions

Jan 14 - 15:31 GMT

What you have the whole day is a MAJOR Caching Problem in your clusters!

Jan 14 - 15:50 GMT
Customer

It seems like you still have no idea about your server Problems at Servage Hosting.

Even Redmine in http://www.t3log.info and the Redmine in http://redmine.t3pack.info have since HOURS a NEW Database assigned and the one still showing up in on those domains is still the old and empty one.

Don't you get it?

We can't delete SYMLINKS!!! We already told you that multiple times in December - NOW IT IS URGENT VERY URGENT as you sytem is deleting the FILE behind a symlink instead of deleting the symlink itself.

Try to get better qualified personal! The one you have only causes problems.

FAKT NOW is somebody of your staff has truncated our DATABASE!!! about 2 month hard work.
And it was still there this morning but now it is gone! We have an Empty Database now.
I have no idea what you are doing but one thing seems to be very very sure, that the SERVAGE SUPPORT has no qualification to do such a job at all as SERVAGE HOSTING SUPPORT is destroying Customers Databases!

Servage - Jan

Hello Andreas,

thanks for your ticket,
I am very sorry for all the issues occured to you,
I have removed the Symlink for you and will report the issue to our dev. Team so they can fix the Symlink removal issue.

the one on mysql1**5 or mysql***5 ?

Description: Redmine_t3log.info
Database: ****t3li****
Server: mysql1****

This one is empty and before it ws holding the complete project data of awhole lot of Projects like ****, ****, **** and more

Jan 14 - 16:50 GMT
Customer

Hi Jan

This here is some kind of Backup:
Server: mysql1****
Database: ****
Username: ****

ATTENTION this Data is all in latin1_swedish_ci!!! while the Original was all in utf8_unicode_ci

As we have Thai People from UNESCO working with us on the projects.

You can replay
Server: mysql2****
Database: ****

but you would need to convert all data to utf8 before importing into
Server: mysql1****
Database: ****

Otherwise some characters won't show up correctly.

Best to do is to convert all data from
Server: mysql1****
Database: ****
to binaries first, then convert them with iconv and editing the charset and collation settings of each table and field where a charset latin1 or collation latin1_swedish_ci is mentioned

all charsets need to be utf8 and all collations need to be utf8_unicode_ci

The database
Server: mysql2****
Database: ****

is already set to completly utf8

Hello Andreas,

thanks for your reply,
I have just tried to find out wehat happended to your database "****" but was unable to find any hints.
It might be that a Mysql server Bug has caused this so I have just added one month of free hosting to your account as a compensation.
Additionally Im trying to copy the data from **** to ****.

Im going to update you when its done.

Kind regards,
Jan, System Administrator

Hello Andreas,

I have just converted and imported the database.
Could you please verify if the content does have the right charset now as I did not find any non-ASCII char by scrooling the dump Quickly through I could use to see if the conversion succeded. And notify me if something went wrong.


Kind regards,
Jan, System Administrator

Thanks Jan
The Database is Back and seems to work fine.
I need to ask my staff tomorrow where they entered i.e. Thai Characters or Chinese as I don't know either. But as if you haven't sen anything while scrolling probably there are none right now - what would be fine ;-)
Thank You very much for your help!
I hope this doesn't happen again!

You can even Check here with the empty dummy:

here you got this error what is VERY USUAL
(by the way it is an errormessage from TYPO3 as t3pack.info is a typo3 page ;-)
http://redmine.t3pack.info/
here the site shows up like it should be including CSS

http://www.t3log.info/public
You get the error like above but as there is no typo3 for t3log.info the message looks different
http://www.t3log.info/

Hello Andreas,

Thank you for the reply.

Hi Peter

do you see the page WITH CSS as we don't get any CSS file here!!! How can this be? Yesterday it worked perfectly and very very fast. Today it takes about 1 min to load 1 page without CSS from Redmine.
http://www.t3pack.info is working fast and fine with CSS - typo3
http://www.t3log.net is working fast and fine with CSS - vTiger
http://www.t3log.net/ is working fast and fine with CSS - redmine
http://wec.t3pack.info/ is working fine with CSS - WEC-TYPO3
same all other applications

ONLY the site which wasn't a problem at all until yesterday now shows NO CSS - since JULIE posted her answer yesterday!

Something seems to be changed please ask JULIE WHAT as we don't know it! But this change seems to cause the loss of the CSS here.

Jan 14 - 07:16 GMT
Customer

What do you mean with this???

"I suggest you to please do check at your end after some time. ""

So you have done something we don't know and now you are trying to undo it again or what, that's why YOU need time?

We are still waiting for a SOLUTION and it is URGENT-
Are you seeing the CSS YES OR NO!!! As we don't get it here, but did get it yesterday and all days before JULIE has done some changes - BUT WHAT CHANGES!!!
We had to open a new post to get a faster answer again
