Update with pool: everything was breaking everywhere, so I rushed to get the new server working.
New server Postgres is screwed up, so I set it up logging shares to a textfile for now.
Payouts and stats are down as a result, but hopefully it won't take long to recover from this mess.

Three day's no Payouts and Stats.........

OK! *clears throat*

... Greetings Eligius Miners!

Its been a rough past few days. Here's what's happened:

Eligius's server was having some serious problems which appeared to be related to connectivity (bandwidth starved)
Server was also having software issues related to memory and the virtualization software used to partition the pool and the web server.
I was able to get a new, higher spec'd server online at a new data center several days before these issues became damaging, and I was unavailable when all hell broke lose with the original server to finish a clean setup.
In my brief absence, Luke-Jr got in and quickly got the new server up and accepting connections and logged all shares to a well-formatted file.
This broke stats (since the mining wasnt even on the same server!) and payouts (same issue) until I was able to migrate these key pieces of software and related data.
I got accepted shares into the database as normal, and parsed the file that was made and added those to the database, then caught up the CPPSRB reward system.
Coinbase payouts resumed shortly, and a manual payout was sent to catch up all payments missed while the reward system was offline. All payments are current up to the time of this post.
Stats were offline mainly because of the huge size of the databases involved with the migration. They are now back online.

Just about everything should be back up and running. I will note that IPv6 connectivity is presently not available, but I will be working on that shortly.

I will be looking at all options in the coming days to make sure that Eligius remains stable and stats remain available.

On a side note, a generous miner has volunteered time and effort for a full redesign of the Eligius homepage, which should be online any day now!

Summary: Pool is online. Stats are online. No accepted shares we lost. Payout queue is clear.

Thank you all for you patience!

Three Cheers to Luke Jr and WizKid!!! Thanks for your effort! So happy to be back mining, and yes, I saw a payout for time hashing with the new server. Eligius still is a very fair pool.
