Steemify Server Upgrade

Today was d-day

I needed to finish the installation of the new Steemify servers, and migrate all data from the old database to the new one. I had given myself a window of two hours to complete the data migration, because during that process nobody was able to use Steemify.

What could possibly go wrong?

Well, the development server has been running perfectly for over a week now, and as the production server has 99.9% the same configuration, I didn't expect much problems there...

I was wrong

Although I was able to get back to a workable situation within the two hour window (barely), a lot of stability issues popped up. I've spent the rest of the day working my way through Serverfault / Stackoverflow and config files to get all that smoothed out.

Long day

After working for 14 hours straight, I decided I deserved an ice cold beer which I'm enjoying right now. Tomorrow I will address some final issues and then we wait for Apple to finish reviewing the App!

Cheers!
