Is it just me, or is there a problem over on wpsmb?

Here's what I get:

> Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE, expecting T_STRING in /var/www/vhosts/whitneyportalstore.com/httpdocs/forum/scripts/showflat.inc.php on line 916

The site is dead! frown

Now it's giving a page that says "Coming soon Another QNET powered website" when you try the WPSMB home page, and "Not Found

The requested URL /forum/ubbthreads.php was not found on this server"
when you try the old forums address.

Something major has happened. DO we have a way of making sure Doug knows? It might already be being worked on but . . .

still not working for me

only thing I can think of is that we're talking to two different servers. Is Doug changing where the WPSMB web site is hosted? If the IP address has changed, then DNS caching would explain why it's working for some, but not me, we're getting different IP addresses. whitneyportalstore.com resolves to 209.221.196.49 for me, and it's not working.

This behavior points to a server move. The problems this morning indicated some files not present or something similar. And Joel's problems indicate that, too. When we moved this site, it took hours for me to be able to connect on the new server.

When I do a whois lookup on www.whitneyportalstore.com, I get IP address: 209.221.195.13 for the server, which is different than Joel's 209.221.196.49.

And my whois (I use http://cqcounter.com/whois/ ) shows the IP was updated 15-May-2012 (today!)

Everything will likely be working properly by tomorrow.

I think that the 209.221.196.49 that I reported is the correct new one. If you go to that IP you get the WPSMB site. Going to 209.221.195.13 gives the error I reported.

That's what confused me. A cmd window ping to whitneyportalstore.com gave that IP address.
Going to http://209.221.196.49 in both IE and Opera worked,
Opera wouldn't go to whitneyportalstore.com, but IE would.
My conclusion was to restart Opera in case Opera cached DNS.
Things started working.

Most likely cause is a change of IP address in DNS for whitneyportalstore.com for some reason.
