Hensel Hosting Status Weblog

In the next few months we will upgrade the operating system and some important software on all servers (of course we always keep the software on our servers up-to-date but that is limited to security updates so that everything keeps working as it should). Although there quite a few version changes, you can expect that everything will work as it should (but exceptions are possible!).

Best thing of course is that new versions means new functionality

Downtime during the upgrades (which of course we perform when normal people sleep ) will be 5-15 minutes.

Most important changes:
- Apache 2.2.3 upgraded to Apache 2.2.9
- MySQL 5.0.32 upgraded to MySQL 5.0.51a;
- PHP 5.2.0 upgraded to PHP 5.2.6

If you have a shared web hosting package you will receive an email about the date we perform the upgrade. If you have a Managed Virtual Server or Dedicated Managed Server we will contact you by email.

Update: The shared hosting platform will be upgraded in the night of Friday on Saturday (May 30th).
