Alert: Site Maintenance Mnnday, March 6

A auctivajoemAuctiva Support
As you may have seen in the press release email sent out Wednesday, we are moving our servers to a new hosting facility. This will take place on *Monday* 3-6-2006 starting at 9pm PST. It is possible certain parts of the site could be down for up to 12 hours as we move, but we hope to have things up a lot quicker than that.

Regards,

Joe

I thought I had a handle on the image down time-Last night I determined that 9pm pst- was three hours after my auctions ended so I didn't really have anything to worry about other than other auctions that had plenty of time on remaining on them- and could deal with losing images for the specified down time. After I loaded images onto photobucket for the auction that ended tonight- i decided i didn't need to add to my description ( i had bids) and went to bed with some peace of mind. Now I just checked on my auction thats ending in 6 hours and no images- I should've added the photobucket images just to be safe, but too late now. grrrrrr.! HOWEVER, i do appreciate auctiva and its "freeness" so I don't want to bite the hand that feeds me- just wanted to get that off my chest.

Ruth,,If your auctions are ending today, have bids or less than 12hrs I think you are in the same boat as me (& probably many of us).

Big Problems here.. Red Face

Ebay in the UK is doing a 50% off listings today, so I thought I would take advantage and get some listings up using features or highlights, something I don't normally bother with.
It's now 18.27 here and only 10.27 PST but the servers are down already!!
I thought I would have time to load my listings to Ebay before the servers were supposed to go down at 21.00 PST. I've got over a dozen listings waiting to go and I can't get them Mad

Anyone got any idea what's going on ?

However as has been mentioned - it's free - don't bite the hand etc. etc!

Hi Mystic,

I agree, I've used photobucket for a while and have recommended it in other forums. I always upload the same images as I do with Auctiva. I think the problem starts when Ebay has two image sources. I keep a second account on Ebay just so I can look at my listings as a buyer would and a lot of the time if you rely on two hosting services then the listings end up looking very untidy and not professional.
I'd love Auctiva to be up and available all the time but that will never happen unless they generate more money from somewhere. It's absolutely brilliant as a free service, but in the end it is free so what can you do ?

Regards, Stu

"unless they generate more money from somewhere" begs the question, do you buy insurance from them? If more sellers required insurance on their listings, they would have plenty of revenue and we would not have to wonder if they will start charging for the service. Besides insurance does give some peace of mind.

Auctive missed out on a resonable sum of insurance money from me this week purely because a. i don't have the checkout enabled as a lot of my sales are combined shipping which it can't handle and b. the completed transactions haven't been relayed from ebay to auctiva so i haven't been able to purchase the insurance for customers! I've had to got with usps or ups and i wouldn't be surprised if it was about $10 worth of insurance just this week alone. My completed transactions list is missing approx 40 items! Lost revenue is all i can say!
S stuggystuffMember
Hi Roamer,

No I don't buy insurance BUT only because I'm based in the UK. I've asked in another forum whether it may be available in the UK at some point.
I would love to buy insurance through Auctiva.
I don't know anything about the USA but postal insurance over here is totally restrictive.
You can have 'recorded' i.e signed for, but that only covers about $60 and that's if you're lucky AND you can be a***d to fill in all the paperwork AND the recipient is helpful.
The next one we have above that is the proper insured package but that STARTS at $15 per item.
PLEASE give me an insurance deal that I can use over here.
I've recommended Auctiva to loads of people but unfortunately all are UK based, so in a way we are using resources for free with no way of compensating for that.
As I've said, even though it's free it is really great to use and I'd love to help.

That's up to Auctiva management.....

Jeff - I can't imagine what you are thinking. My response in oh so slow thread was an attempt to get you to step back and make some tough decisions. Having been in the outsourcing business most of my life, I would have been fired for trying to do what you are doing. Programming 101, when you have serious problems, keep your head and do not make drastic, hasty changes. If you have doubts, what are too think? Your the CEO for godsakes! Don't air your doubts in this forum, get enough technical expertise to analyse the situation adn advise you, then make a decision and stick to it, good or bad.

Since you seem to be having trouble deciding, if I were voting (well I guess I am since I am taking everything off of auctiva like most others) I would follow the suggestions I had in the other post. Manage the problems you have now as you get your users to saftey. By that I mean an orderly shut down of your service, tell us all to quit using the service, hell our auctions can't be running for more than 10 days. If you prevented any new activity starting right now, in 10 days you could make this entire move RISK FREE. You would not have to be worrying if you were going to introduce more pain or not. I am having a hard time understanding why this is not the obvious path!

I hope other post but if you told me I needed to stop using the service for 30 days while you moved to your new data center and that you wouldn't let me back on until you were sure you had a service that could provide the stellar service you want to provide. Guess what, not only would I respect that decision, but I would think, wow, auctiva has my interest as their primary concern, you know, turn this into as good of thing as you can. I would be happy to come back at the point in time you let us all know you thought you had a handle on things and I would come back with little fear.

Making a move with all of us using the service and being so unsure, well I can't imagine not always being afraid that poor IT decision's may bite me at any time.

I hope others will share their views. Jeff, I am not trying to slam you, I stated that in my other post. I even invited you to email me personally, but I do feel strongly the current situation is not being handled in your customers best interest. I have a selfish reason to see that change because as I mentioned in my other post, I would really like to see activa survive however in my outsourcing experience, activa is making bad decisions on top of bad problems and I fear that might not be survivable.

Good Luck in whatever path you choose, I personally, as with your other customers, will be better served if your path works out!

Hiya Jeff--let us know if you will be postponing tonight's move. I have listings scheduled to list on 3/12 (a fair amount of time/cushion), but if you forsee postponement, do let us know so I can reschedule/move up my listings. I check your community board everyday when I log in as I'm sure everyone else is doing the same. No complaints here~just anxiously waiting for the big day!! ;-)
E efilnikcufecinMember
I wish you guys could stick to a decision. You keep dragging this out and putting it off and for what? Shut it down and move the thing already, one of 2 things is going to happen.
1. everything goes smoothe and your back up in a couple of hours.

2. It's a total disaster everyone walks away from the site.


If you can change the move to Monday then why not Monday 3/13/06 that gives us 9 days notice and those of us who don't want to chance losing money monday and tuesday when the images are not working can tak this monday and tuesday off so our listings are not effected.

Jeff is just contributing to his own stress and the staff's stress by making announcements and not going through with it and then you got to hear people like me bitching about it.
M mikebikerMember
I just do not get it! The guys at Auctiva are doing thier best to make this transition as easy as possible and you keep complaining. This is a BIG deal for all of us with auctions running through thier site. I have nearly 50 ending on Sunday night. If this were ebay you would get NO notice of anything. You would wait three days for a canned response. They are being as honest as possible. Personally I have listed some auctions at ebay just to be safe, but I am very anious to get back here to list. The service is great and I am getting great prices for my items with the extra pictures and templates. So please be patient for a week and let them get this done and then come back and enjoy the benifits.
E efilnikcufecinMember
I'm not really complaining about the service or the website I am simply upset that last night I expected this to all be over today. Now it's monday. Then it will be tuesday then thursday then next wednesday. So why not give it a week tell us straight up "Hey we are moving the servers next monday." Don't like it don't list for auctions to end at those times. End of story. If this were a NY based company they'd be done already because they'd have their ba!!s cut off if they didn't. Yeah yeah I know I know Impatient New Yawker. What can I say Red Face I love this site I am even considering the insurance thing like you said I just have to get all the info. I am working from it right now infact scheduling photos from tonight from saved ads and it's so easy to work with. I can't complain about anything else here. I never really have except last week when things went a little hay wire. LIke I said I am not really as upset as I sound about this. I have 23 ending monday and one that I know will go up over $100 so if this were all done last night I wouldn't have to worry about it now. But I am going to SD and revising mondays items so that I am using their code instead of auctiva for monday and tuseday. Why because I sell collectible magazines and don't want to take a chance of losing bids if they pull the plug before my listings end.
M mikebikerMember
We just have to face there is no good time to do this. I was sweating Sunday Night as I expect it to top 2500.00 and maybe more. I start all my new listings on Sunday as well. So I have for this week listed a dozen here and 20 to 30 more over at the bay. If all is well by thursday next week I will be back here with 40 to 60 more auctions to list. Since this is my living I have to protect my weekly income. But this is a very nice easy to use site and I will just have to work around the big change. Think how much fun it is to move you home stereo Tv Surround Sounds Etc. Well this is SO much bigger and has a lot more riding on it so an easy transition for us all is worth the wait.
E efilnikcufecinMember
I understand the reason he waited but I just wish they planned it a little better and informed us sooner. I know they mentioned it in here but I usually don't get in here. I am averaging 2000-2500 a week too but I need to work and have listings working to get there. Thursday killed me. I am working now to make up for it though and I rushed yesterday to bang out 40 more. When I say bang out thats 12 hours between scanning/listing/ and of course my favorite goofing off time. I seem to do a lot of goofing off in 12 hours. But I work from home so I tend to get way to distracted. Anyway I am using SD as a back up and hopefully they won't decide to crash like they usually do.
K kaylamom1Member
OK...I see the move has been postponed. I just want to be clear so I know when I can start launching stuff again. Some stuff has been moved and is being tested - the rest of the servers will be moved on Monday - so are we still looking at a possible 12+ hours of downtime, or less? Is Monday firm for moving? I am anxious to get stuff listed again, but have been holding off so that my listings aren't missing photos and templates during the auction period.

I know this must be a stressful time for you guys and I appreciate the updates - I just want to plan around any outages. Thanks. :-)
H homedogsMember
erm, well 90 listings over the weekend that showed no pictures, apparently an ebay problem so maybe not all above is auctivas fault, ebay never got back on a refund though and all listings had to be cancelled. but today three listings as a test, none showing, saw them briefly without pictures and then they dissapeared. Good luck auctiva in sorting it all out and yes shipping insurance doesn't apply to Hong Kong people either so maybe even a donations box might help i'm sure some users in the community wouldn't mind a small amount each monthSmile

its now march 7th when will the site have pictures...12 hours or 24 hours..i just spent alot of money on ebay and i have nothing showing...there are also images that never showed up in gallery and you were not under maintanance then..i have been putting up with this now for three months gritting my teeth and trying to forgive..but it seems you keep moving to different servers..knowing that you will have growth why dont you look a little further ahead and get the servers that will accomodate your growth instead of looking at it on a weekly basis of growth..your in this for the long haul so look out 2 years instead of 2 weeks..spend the money now otherwise people will go elsewhere. thanks for tour free service but get with the program!! growth prepare for it now!!
D dawnblueMember
Someone was saying on a different thread that they pay $50 a month for Auctiva's service. I didn't know that Auctiva had a pay service - but many people would be willing to pay a monthly fee if it meant the service would be more stable. I am not going to complain about a free service being unstable. eBay is a second business income for me - my first is a web designer and I know that servers, etc are very expensive. It's hard to plan for that kind of growth on a limited budget.

THIS PAST 8 DAYS HAS BEEN BAD, FIRST AFTER POSTING AND TRYING TO POST WITH EBAY'S 10 CENT SALE, AUCTIVA SERVERS CRASHED, AND ONCE THAT WAS FIXED IT WENT OK, AND TODAY 3/6/06 IS THE THIRD SCHEDULED TIME TO SWITCH SERVERS. NOW THEY ARE DOING THIS WHEN MOST OF THE ITEMS LISTED FOR EBAYS 10 CENT SALE ARE ENDING. CUSTOMERS CAN'T SEE WHAT THE ITEMS ARE, GUESS THE 10 CENT SALE WAS A WASTE FOR MOST OF US. JUST WONDERED WHY AUTIVA PICKED THIS TIME TO MAKE THE CHANGE AFTER THEY POSTED A NOTICE IN HERE FOR THE BIG 10 CENT SALE. WELL GO FIGURE.

It's funny how people pop out of the woodwork when the sh!t hits the fan. I posted a poll last week asking if they should get it over with or if they should give us a weeks notice to get our acts together and make sure we are prepared for image outages. Everyone choose get it done. THen I come here the day they pull the plug and everyone is here to bitch.

Here is the link to the poll results.

https://community.auctiva.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/579...51/showpollresults/Y

I posted it because I knew people would be upset when they pulled the plug. I thought since they postponed it from thursday to friday to monday they could at least extend it 9 days and send an email that on 3/13/06 the servers would be moved and we could decide if we wanted to schedule listing to end that day. No one responded so here we are. I know not everyone comes in here I usually don't but we are all here to bitch about it now.

I didnt point any fingers and and I am bitching too.
E efilnikcufecinMember
OK here is the UPDATE:

They are still working on it. It will be done soon but not now.

If you had the time to read the alert you would have noticed that it said "it could take up to 12 hours to complete the move" now since auctiva started the move at 9pm pacific standard time that means it could still take 3 more hours because it's only 6:14am PST. By the way I was not saying you were bitching so whats the problem?

I didn't receive any notification of the move due to no pictures showing I am now losing money on ebay.
E efilnikcufecinMember
they unplugged the servers and physically moved them from what I understand. It is going to affect the whole site except the community and I think support. They were not moving those servers so that in case the new data center goes down we can still file support tickets and get info in the community. But thats all after the move today. Thats how I understood it was happening anyway.

I actually posted spmeplace directions on how to sign up for sparedollar and copy and paste your listings to their site and get the html code so you could revise your listings ending monday and tuesday to be working at sparedollar but of course everyone here is much smarter and siad it wasn't worth the effort. Of course it only took me about 60 seconds per listing and I had working images on all my listings ending monday because I had a feeling they were going to pull the plug early. If people didn't think it was such a waste of time they would have working images too. I learned from sparedollar that it's not good to have all yor eggs in 1 basket especially on that site.

Um....I am sorry to say, but I have no reason to "pop out of the woodwork" and come here unless there is a problem and you are assuming everyone just comes here on a regular basis. I don't have time to come to this forum every day just to hang out and see what is going on. When my e-mail box started filling up with complaints with customers about no pictures in my 1500+ ads and when my eBud template refused to update this morning was when I decided to "come out of the woodwork" to see if I could find out what is going on. If I was properly informed about the possibility of issues I wouldn't have a reason to come here to bitch because I would have been aware that there would be problems and not surprised. The press release from Auctiva in no way mentioned any down time or possibility of issues and I shouldn't have to assume that there would be. I have reread the press release mutliple times (and it's not that long LOL) to see if I was missing something. Did I not get the same press release everyone else did because I am a paying "Classic Auctiva" user ? I am in full support of Auctiva and understand there will be growing pains. For all you 'newbies' posting here, I have been with Auctiva a long time, and I am a paying customer, not a free customer, so I have a good understanding of how things tend to work with Auctiva and plenty of experience dealing with it. Auctiva is a fantastic service (probably the best at what they do) with the exception of their communication skills. I have every right to be irritated (to say the least) about the situation. Lack of communication from Auctiva prevented me from being prepared for this issue otherwise I would not have "come out of the woodwork". Assuming I would or should come here to the forum or even to the Auctiva web site every day just to see if there is going to be a problem is unrealistic. If you are suggesting I have do that, then you yourself are attesting to the unrealiability of this service. As a long time user, I still give Auctiva a little more credit than that LOL.

I wish I had seen your tutorial - I think it's a good idea.


I am looking for it. You could still do it if you copy and paste your title and description from your listings on ebay.

OK here goes again.

1. Open a free account at SD.

2. upload your images to SD.

3. make a profile and select a template. You can find custom templates in the forums under "templates" You have to join the template warehouse and they have tons of templates there.
(If you use a custom template you to copy the code and save it in the custom templates area, which is under the "listings tab" IN your profile you will see where it says "select a template" you will see their templates to the left and your custom template in the column to the right. Click any sparedollar template first, then click your custom template)

4. select your images, price, and any other options you want to use that are not going to change.

5. save the profile.

6. open a new listing and copy the title, description and shipping details from ebay and paste in the appropriate areas.

7. scroll all the way down and click "preview"

8. on the preview screen right click and the drop down window will open. You will see "view source" click that. a pop up window will open with the HTML code. right click and select "select all" in the pop up box that will highlight the code. Right click and select copy.

9. go back to ebay click revise your item, and select edit description. in the description box right click and "select all" that will highlight the auctiva code. Then right click again and click "paste" that will remove the highlighted code and insert the sparedollar code.

10. click save.

You now have images in your listing working off sparedollar not auctive.

11. Pray sparedollar doesn't fall apart while you are using them.

It's probably too little too late now but it works. It's not as hard as it sounds and it takes a couple of seconds once you get the profile the way you want it. They are also very easy to use.

Oh you didn't have to go through all that trouble to find it for me - but I will definitely bookmark it for future use. Some people are also using img bucket for their picture host. I have my own website, so I might just host my own images. My website is always stable. Thanks for the tip -

Don't forget to inform people that after this month is up all their images will go *poof*

WTH would you waste time setting up an account you have to intention on using because Auctiva is down for a few hours just like they said it would?

doesn't make much sense to me!

BTW - I have had pics on one ID and not the other so I guess they are in the process of getting things back up.

There is no magic wand, these things take time so relax and come back later for an update Big Grin

Man life is so much more fun if you just stop bitching and complaining about everything Eek

Are we having fun yet?

Ok - it's not letting me quote for some reason - but it's been great meeting you Freddy - have a great day. I hear they have some of the images up - which means at least ONE server is back up and that's a good thing.

I have a ton of photography to do - and I really don't feel like it, but the kids are in school, so I guess I better hop to it..


Get it... Hop to it.... LOL

Freddy the Frog. What was the name of that show. I remember it was on like 5:30am and there was a frog, and owl, and a hippo I think? It wasn't "The Great Space Coaster" It was something else I remember I used to watch it but can't remember the name.

The idea behind the SD thing was if you had listings ending last night and today while they were working on moving the servers you'd still have images working on ebay. Then there is no reason to bitch. By the way tomass doesn't pull the plug on the free account until the 15th so thats 45 days and also since he the free 30 day trial would end on the 4th, 5th or 6th you'd get an extra month and that is right out of merrygolds mouth. She told me that when I joined and I had 2 free months. Also why would you need those images when auctiva is back up? All the ads are seved here and are being moved to the new servers. It was just a suggestion. It worked like a charm for me.

I don't think I ever saw that either. I liked
Sesame Street, Electic Company, 321 Contact and Reading Rainbow. I seriously never watched anything else - told you I was a geek!


LOL You guys are REALLY making me feel OLD since I am old enough to not only have watched all of these programs on a regular basis, but can clearly remember them today ! Maybe the fact that I can actually remember means I am not that old yet LOL. I thought I already had enough stress on my plate today LOL

I liked the electric company and sesame st too. I still watch when I see it. I hope they get the site working soon because I am supposed to be off tomorrow and I usually get listings done for tuesday and wednesday on monday and tuesday. I am going to be at the Metropolitan Museum all day tomorrow so I can't work. Oh and Saturday I am going to see this


Well it is turning out to be a rather beautiful day here in post-Katrina Lousiana. The sun is shining, it's 66 degrees with a cool breeze....and my 5 cats are basking in the sun on my patio about 5 feet from their feeding bowls and 3 robins are pecking at the food and the cats could care less - that's a sign to me that Auctiva was really telling all of us we deserve an extra day off LOL. I have plenty off yard work I can do si I think I'll make good use of my time. Maybe when I come back inside everything will be up and running better than before. Is that wishful thinking ? Am I jinxing it ? If so, maybe I'll just turn on PBS and see if I can find Sesame Street and regress back into a childhood state LOL.
