We are upgrading the Fest21 platform. It should be done between Wednesday and Thursday. We will have to close the site for database maintenance. We hope to keep downtime as limited as possible. Sorry for the inconvenience. The new platform will be a needed first step to develop many additional services in the coming months... Stay tuned....
As we were reorganising our servers to have full redundancy of all services (web, images, database...), the main disk drive crashed. We replaced it and, as an additional problem, we realized that the latest daily backups contained errors and were unusable. We had to rely on the last weekly backup and restored it dated from February 7. At this stage, we lost one week of data. We are trying to recover data lost on the crashed drive but it is without guaranty at this stage. We are terribly sorry...
We are experiencing video problems on the site due to our video platform partner. They migrated their servers to a new location and are experiencing severe difficulties. Sorry for the inconvenience, we hope to be back quickly.
