Title: [resolved] Warcraft 2 Occult page down
Post by: Ishmokin on December 17, 2016, 08:32:44 PM
Hi, was looking for more strategy articles and the link http://war2.warcraft.org/index.shtml (http://war2.warcraft.org/index.shtml) doesnt work anymore. Is there any chance of this being online again?

Axolotl answered me: "Let me find out...."

On way is to use archive.org to get content on old page that isnt published anymore, se link https://web-beta.archive.org/web/20160304044333/http://war2.warcraft.org/forum/ (https://web-beta.archive.org/web/20160304044333/http://war2.warcraft.org/forum/)

occult forum was a joke compared to .ru one imo.

i swear we used to have occult.war2.ru here, and it was a mirror/archive of everything from the old site.  but it went away?

It went away after yet another hostings migration.

Have been difficult to unpack and optimize, lost last 2 days for that.
Just restored, should work now.

Only pages with max depth 3. I still hope to get axolotl's content and to locate it elsewhere. I wrote to him to share the database, he doesn't answer.
Looks like he have no time to make things, but would be good to at least get the database dump to install it anywhere instead of static cache of several pages.

What do you mean max depth only 3?  If something were too many clicks deep into the page it would not be archived?  So far as I test it, all the links work (occult.war2.ru)

Yes, any link can not be reached in 3 clicks is unaccessible. Me and Lb tried to download the whole site, but that didn't work.

Of course, would be much better to get the whole database dump somewhere...
