Good News !
The forum has been transfered succefully to a brand new server in United-States.
I hope there's nothing lost, but I'm confident.

It seems all the links to forum post and threads are broken now
Its not possible to do some kind of automatic rerouting ??
Because now we had hundreds or thousands of forum post linking to other helpful forum posts that don't work anymore

Yes, the several AAR subforums are missing.
It seems they still use the old forum server.

Ouch!
Yes, all pictures hosted at the boards are gone
The ones hosted outside (imageshack and the like) are still around at least...
But i'm still more worried about all the inter forum linking being broken now
Not to mention the links posted on other forums (Matrix, Wargamer...)
Sorry for being so negative

Patience. I suspect that with the right combination of (a) DNS tweaks, (b) internal server file and directory linking, and/or (c) the appropriate Apache server configs (you are using Apache, aren't you?), the Forum and server admins can solve all problems.

Don't understand a word, but sounds encouraging!

Assuming everything was properly moved to the new server, it can still take 24-48 hours for the DNS to resolve fully.

The article I wrote at The Wargamer is pointing to the old link. I don't know if that sort of thing can be resolved. A shame possible customers are finding a broken link.

Sorry about those links, it seems there was technical mishap during the transfer. The pics are not lost (in theory, they are are still on the old server AND on the new one as well, but the links don't work).
We shall work on fixing this very soon.

Hey!
It seems everything works again: forum links, images, file attaching...
Good work guys!!
Thanks!
EDIT: Checking around it seems what does not work dtill are the old AGEOD forum links posted on other forums and webs
Not sure if this is possible to fix/redirect

I am actually working on attachments.
Be patient, it takes a lot of time (2Gb files checking)
If you find links or other stuff do not work, please give me the link to the post.

Now It should be working.
Let me know if someone find something wrong.

For example, these links on the AACW matrixgames forums
http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=2089312
Can this be fixed??

I am sorry arsan... I can change, modify, fix all you want on Ageod's forum but I can not do anything on Matrix and all other forum of site.
Each time you see a bad link to our forum, please inform the "writters" or the webmasters to modify it.
Yoann.
