Pryan users should delete old builds from server

Post by bangbang023 »

Anyone who uses pryan.org as a host for daily builds will notice that uploading has been impossible the past two days. This is because the server has apparently run out of space. The solution? Delete your old builds. I usually purge every 4 months, leaving only the most recent month on the server. I'm advising everyone to do the same if you wish to continue using this amazingly generous webspace from pryan.

Hopefully other builders begin to purge their older stuff soon.

If hosting continues to be a problem in the next few days, I'd be glad to set up FTP accounts on my website for builders.

Well I usually purge every month, but I leave two months worth of builds... I suppose I will switch to using only one month... and since we're starting anew today I suppose there will be only one build in my folder :P

Anyhow hope this helps things, I am very thankful of the space

I'll probably delete my builds from pryan.org. I had forgotten about it. Hopefully I can still remember how to log in.

An obvious course of action would be to purge _all_ your previous builds in order to upload your newest build (or builds, in Hendikins' case).

Sure, Patrick Ryan can be PMed:

If he reply you, please tell me. I'd like to apply a account. 200MB is enough. Now I panic with my web hosting. [-o<
I am the bone of my firefox.Source is my body,and library is my blood.I've created over a thousand of builds.Unaware of notice.Nor aware of warning.With stood pain to create binaries.Waiting for one's download.I have no regrets.This is the only path.My whole life was "Unlimited build works"

Thanks for the quick reply, I honestly thought you were idle for such a long period... Looked at recent posts, your forums were down, not logged into any chat medium :P

I'm here but I haven't devoted any time for a long time to maintain the Mozilla portion of the server (gotta love filesystem partitions for containing damage caused by getting full). I cleaned up some stuff I know off hand that's not needed anymore (my old builds, scragz stuff in archives, old official builds). Please continue to clean up stuff you know isn't needed anymore. I may spend a bit of time after I get home tonight cleaning out other people's old stuff.
