We will be performing a database migration to new infrastructure, which requires up to 2 hours of downtime.
Date and Time:2025-02-05T20:00:00Z→2025-02-05T22:00:00Z
Expected Duration: Up to 2 hours
During this period, the website will be temporarily unavailable. We appreciate your patience and will work to complete the migration as quickly as possible.
Thank you for your understanding! We’ll provide updates here once the migration is complete.
Wait… That’s like in 2 hours
Such announcements are usually expected at least a few days before the maintenance. A reminder is fine 2 hours before, but not an announcement
BTW, Discourse allows date inserts and it shows to everyone in their local time: 2025-02-05T20:00:00Z→2025-02-05T22:00:00Z
Be grateful there was even an announcement. There wasn’t when free users got shafted. Trakt come in last place when it comes to communicating with their customers.
Finally got an email from trakt about the maintenance but it was 30 mins after the maintenance started. lol!! I guess at least there’s progress in terms of communications haha
Update: Actually it was an email from uptime bot lol. Not sure if automated or sent out by trakt themselves
Everything went well, but we might seem some slowness as things heat back up. Thank you for patience, and my apologies again for not getting a notice up sooner. I’ll do better
Edit: spoke too soon. We’re tracking down an issue with replication lag. Will update when things are smoothed out.
Ok, here’s the fun update for today. We’re back up, but only got part of the work done. This unfortunately means we’ll be scheduling another fun downtime in the near future. Only upside is it should be much shorter.
Thank you for your patience and when this is done, we’ll be on far more resilient infrastructure.
When is the ‘near future’ please? I’ve been getting a few error 500 messages and problems with marking shows as watched, etc for the last week. I don’t know if this is part of what the maintenance is for and if I should wait, or if this is something unrelated that needs fixing.
I posted the timestamp of when I completed NCIS on my private discord server for notekeeping. I’ve added it with timestamp Feb 5, 22:21 (my timezone, GMT +1, Amsterdam)
Of the time I added it with “Other Date”, I’m unsure, it but, I guess maybe around 22:40ish. I remember going to the forums checking whether it was really completed already and you had just posted, but not yet the edited version.
The De Cirkel episode timestamp I’m less sure of, because Trakt was already back up then, I logged it RIGHT after completing it. It must have been before 23:48PM because then I posted on this forum that I already had successfully logged two episodes. I know I listened to an audiobook afterward, and finished listening at 23:44, and I listened approx 27 minutes. But before listening, and after watching the episode, I also cleaned up a bit, so let’s say 23:00-10ish.
I added that episode right after finish watching it.
