Hey all
It seems I can't get in to the 3dfx gallery.ch website as it is giving a fatal error
http://www.3dfx.ch/project/index.htm
Anyone know what happened and if the site will be fixed so we can use our galleries again?
Hope there will be a fix for this.
3dfx Galllery.ch in trouble?

The owner of 3dfx.ch is Surrimugge (very long inactive) or 3dfxhistory at YouTube. Correct me if I am wrong.
If it's true, maybe you should contact him and he can solve the problem?
-
Yeah is an idea forgot his name, thanks for the reminder I hope I'll be successful, or a lot of photo's will go lost.
*Update 01*
There sent him a DM here at VA, let's hope for the best, I'll try and DM him via YT as well, that is if he is still active there as well. -
Well here is his Twitter page I Passed him a message also regarding this thread and issue at hand
https://twitter.com/3dfxhistory
YT is kind of useless it seems I can't send him a message there, even if I wanted to, here Surri's YT page:

Unless I oversaw something feel free to let me know. -
I spoke to Surrimugge and it sounds like the hoster updated the PHP environment which rendered the gallery code incompatible.
Due to a very busy schedule I wouldn't expect the gallery to be back online soon.
-
Well I hope it will a lot of photo's will go lost otherwise.
-
That doesn't sound really good. Please keep us up to date!

Das klingt ja nicht so gut. Halte uns bitte auf dem Laufenden!

The database and the photos are still up and technically intact.
What isn't working is the old PHP code, but it's up to Surrimugge to fix that and he didn't mention when he's going to attack the issue.
-
I guess it was due to PHP 7 having been rolled out. While the update is necessary, it also broke tons of software, especially older one. There've been some significant changes from PHP 5 to 7. Maybe he can just update his gallery software? Unless it's homebrewn, and he has to fix the code himself...
-
I honestly have no idea, what exactly is going wrong. I only know that there already have been some fixes and workarounds in place before the update, so maybe parts of the code are indeed modifiyed or homebrew.
I initally wanted to meet with Surrimugge last week, but this has been cancelled due to obvious reasons and therefore I'm not really up to date when it comes to the gallery and further plans to bring it back up.
-
Well the site is working again Surrimugge seems like you did manage to fix it, only thing I can't do is reset my password, can't even log in anymore, which is odd, the picture that shows up during the password reset doesn't show either.
