Wow, great job John. Moving from Windows/IIS/MySQL to Linux/Apache/MariaDB is a REAL big deal. Especially with MariaDB being a nosql db. I assume vBulletin has some data migration tools for that part. Months in the planning and prep indeed. Gives me a headache just to think of it, lol. If any of the custom code was touching the DB directly that would have been a boatload of work to update too.
Glad to see it off Windoze and IIS. Yes, I am a Linux snob.
I see you upgraded vBulletin from 3.7x to 3.8.4. Curious why not v4x or v5x? I have no experience with vBulletin myself so was just curious.
Thanks again for the wonderful service you provide to the PGCA. The amount of work involved in responsibility for this forum and the PGCA site is huge. This is one of the best run sites across the whole of the net IMO.
