IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT about Membership Renewals

23 replies

Over the past two weeks I have been moving the Beoworld Web Site (NOT the forum) to a new "Dedicated Server"

Hopefully, no one noticed any loss of service during this period, however the payments link to the bank for renewal of membership and purchases of Beoworld products is not currently available and will continue not to be available until after Easter.

Apologies to members who did try and renew their membership and I will get it back connected to the bank as soon as possible after Easter.

Sometimes in the last couples of days, my account stars, changes.. Sometimes bronce sometimes silver,,

 

I think my renewal is stuck in the shopping cart.

Poor Lee is gonna be stuck eating hot dogs cut into Kraft Dinner until the problem gets fixed.

I have also tried to use the "Contact Us" link on the main page and get the following error:

500 - Internal server error.

There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.

Please let us know when the membership renewal system is back working again.

Many memberships must be due for renewal at this time as it is the month that the "new" Beoworld went live!

We will of course let you know! 🙂

We've also moved to a new server, which requires a new SSL Security Certificate in order to process payments safely - that's the https bit which gives us all protection when handing over card details, which is of course rather a requirement!!

The Bank Holiday in the UK knocked us out for a few days and set us back, but please be assured Keith is working on it and we'll be back up in full imminently.

Dear Beoworld Members,

I wish to confirm that I have completed all changes including the installation of our new SSL security certificate.

Members who need to renew their membership can now do so as the secure link to the bank has been established from our new server.

The Beoworld web site (not forum) now runs on a dedicated server under our total control. It has a very large capacity and currently we are using about 5% of its capacity. It is connected to a 100 mega bit per second Internet connection. Other than the web site itself the system also runs a mail server and SQL server which is used to store members account information in a secure manner.
