Re: Status of on-rev restore?
Just to update that my on-rev.com account has been recovered and restored from a recent backup. So, following some DNS surgery to manage a change of dedicated IP address that didn’t flow through to all parameters, all the websites that I couldn’t migrate (as I don’t have domain control) are back. I’m ‘luckier’ than some on-rev users as, despite being a lifetime member, I dropped any reliance on on-rev for email or ‘critical production’ following previous outages. However, I’m glad I don’t need to set-up LC-Server elsewhere for development experimentation - and the charities whose websites I webmaster on this account gratis appreciate being back online. :-) Thanks to the runrev personnel who put in the time effort to sort this - those individuals always pull out all the stops to help. At a more systemic level, I hope Kevin’s proposed investigation identifies and (finally?) establishes the backup DR that needs to be in place if on-rev is to remain a core business service. These days it should be possible technically procedurally - and without huge costs - to avoid having a single point of hardware failure (cited as a “raid array”) from creating an outage at all - let alone a couple of weeks.

There was a suggestion that it may be a permissions issue rather than missing resources, but radio-silence since then, so I’ve just chased again. Worryingly, I didn’t receive an auto-response email, so I hope their ticketing system is not down, too! Meanwhile, I can’t recreate folders or databases that used to exist and so I’m stuck until my ticket comes up in the queue. I’ve transferred what I can to alternative hosting arrangements and it looks like I’ll need to recreate my LC server environment elsewhere, too. Hopefully, others have been more lucky - or been more prepared with their own backup DR strategies to mitigate the on-rev.com platform / service as a single point of failure! :-( Best, Keith..

Re: LC7 - Editor so slow make it Unusable (mac os x 10.7.4)! Solution?
Yap! I tried a few : there clearly are some non compatible fonts that drive the livecode editor crazy (I mean.. damn slow!) I had the comic sans set and changed to defaut font to see if that could change and it did. Then : -- american trypwriter is ok -- chalkboard is ok -- brushScript is BAD -- comic sans is BAD -- Snell round hand is BAD WHen you have a bad font.. you can't even change the font setting :: the font menu just appears for a second and goes away. And the app is kind of frozen (round ball is spinning). Hope that can help better identify the problem.
