NOTAMs / VATUSA Website Login
« on: August 29, 2009, 09:05:27 AM »
Ok everyone -

In the interest of simplicity, I have modified the login script so that you can use your VATSIM password to access the VATUSA website.  Your current password will also work making this an either/or type of situation for the time being.  This is not a decision I am taking lightly.  On the one hand there is the simplicity of a single login, yet on the other hand, moving solely to VATSIM password makes our login system dependent on someone else's infrastructure (no offense to VATSIM).

So for the interim, the website will be advertised as a single sign in with the VATSIM password and should we need to switch back to a separate password, that ability will exist.

Regards,

Hey guys,

The job postings are typically announced in the News forum, and the titles are posted on the home page.  On the forthcoming site, this has been kept in place and expanded to the last 12 news items. Having kept an eye on these forums for the last couple of months, the average number of postings that are active in that forum is 7-10 at any given time, meaning that  typically all of these are already shown on the home page.

The only 2 things that are regularly posted on the News forum are jobs and events.

Mike's observation on this subject is pretty accurate.  My suggestion if the goal is to increase exposure of job postings, put them in the VASTIM forums to reach a broader audience.

I am not averse to adding features, but I am a little cautious about this as I am not sure it would have the intended effect.

Thanks

Hey Andrew I was looking through the web site today and clicked on the Western Region link on the front page an it directed me to a page with the title "What Exactly *IS* an ATD"I don't think that is were it was supposed to go. Just letting you know.

That's Tom's page for the Western Region, it is correct

Hello,
I am waiting to take my Basic Test, the one after pressing "Become a VATUSA ATC". Now, should I score an 80% or above and succesfully select an ARTCC, would I be granted the pilot/Observer rank, or the student rank. If the student rank, would I be permitted to control Ground? Thank you in advance.

P.S. I am new to these forums and not sure if this is in the right section. If not, my apologies.

EDIT: It appears that the ASRC website is down. Is this known?


You can select an ARTCC and will hold an Observer Rating.  The ARTCC will provide training for S1.

Hi,

Every time I try going to the VATUSA website or forums, I continue to get the "Account Suspended" message.  I've tried clearing my cookies and cache.  The only way I'm able to get in is by using a proxy.  Any suggestions?  I've tried it on IE and Firefox.  I've tried it on other computers at my house that are hooked up to the same router and they all get the same message.  Is it my connection?  router?  anything?

Thanks in advanced.


Sounds like a DNS cache in your router perhaps.

Ok,

I got the act of rejecting the transfer to work, but it still prompts to enter a reason and reloads the artcc window rather than self closing.

I don't want to spend a whole lot of time repairing this system since we are actively working on replacing it entirely, but for the time being, you are now able to reject transfers.  Ignore the buggy behavior, the actions that need to be performed are working.

Thanks

You guys are doing a hell of a job restoring and I like the new look.  One question, in that new look, I'm a bit lost, can you point me to the Cert Center link?  I know it's still the "/certcenter" address, but there is no link for Staff or ATC to click on to take exams.  You're gonna get that a lot I'm sure as a question from new ATC.  Just trying to head it off at the pass.  Thanks.


good point, I will add it under My Vatusa straight away.

Thanks!

11:00 CDT UPDATE

    * Public Site functionality is restored
    * New members process is fully operational
    * Forums restored (you will need to reset cookies)
    * ATM panel restored
    * Instructor Panel Restored
    * Cert Center Restored
    * Training Center is online.
    * Instructor Application is working
    * Backend databases online and running as scheduled
    * Help desk is online

TO DO:
    *User password change
    *C3 application
    *Mailing List/NOTAMs

The mailing list engine was pretty severely affected by the outage and was in fact deleted by the webhost before we were even able to back it up.  So we are back to square one on that system.  I hope to have the other systems up soon.  Any requests for service that are part of non-functioning systems should be sent to the help desk

Link to the Help Desk

Thanks again
