    Post 16 Update

    Post 17 Warning old domain name stealing credentials

  • Special Server Maintenance

    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Safe Mode?

I was having issues with booting up so I tried safe mode. Well, I can't figure out how to boot in normal mode again with my community folder add-ons...
In other words, how do I get out of safe mode? Any ideas?

Yes, unlike 2020, after using safe mode in 2024, everything stays disabled. You'll have to go into My Library and re-enable everything.

My Library -> Enable/Disable -> Disabled Only. Click on the "Select All" button at the top of the page, and then on the "Enable" button at the bottom.
You'll probably get a few Conflict Alert windows pop up, asking if you want to allow or cancel; I just chose cancel each time. The whole process took
awhile. In my case, the loading circle stuck at 97% complete for over 10 minutes (I started getting worried), but it eventually completed.

I won't be using safe mode in 2024 again, except as a last resort.
