Greetings,
We are expecting some previously unplanned downtime for the Project web and VHOST services to commence shortly. We are working to keep this downtime to as short a duration as possible.

Platform updates: Recent pushes
A recent push resolved ticket [5037], which provide per file and per directory history links. Previously the history link showed a history for the whole repository.
For example, in the Allura project source repository, you’ll notice a History link at the top right.
This will give you a history of just the ‘command’ directory.
Or, in a single file view, you’ll get the history of just that one file.
ViewVC and anonymous pserver access for CVS offline
Greetings,
Since the CVS downtime yesterday, we’ve been experiencing poor performance for CVS. As such, we’ve disabled ViewVC and anonymous pserver access for the time being to prioritize developer read/write access while we address the performance issue. We do not have an estimate for the completion of this yet, but we will keep this post updated as this develops.
UPDATE: ViewVC is now available again, however, the data in ViewVC is still from before the previous downtime. Anonymous pserver is still offline. We’re working to get both these caught up with the latest updates as soon as we can.
UPDATE 2: As of 2012-12-06, anonymous pserver is back online. Note however that both anonymous access methods (ViewVC and pserver) will now lag behind developer changes. Under normal operation, they should be no more than one (1) hour behind. Developer access will always be current.

Hosted Apps Update: Retirement Delayed
TL;DR: The Hosted Apps service has been given a few more months to live. See the Hosted Apps Retirement status page for ongoing status updates.
Several months ago we announced that the Hosted Apps service would be retired.
Hosted Apps was a service that we offered, where various third-party apps (WordPress, phpBB, MediaWiki, and so on) could be used in conjunction with the standard tools offered by the core SourceForge platform.
We’re currently sorting through a scale-up of capacity for the project web and project DB services, and increasing scaling in our LDAP directory infrastructure. As this work, and testing of the platform with modern app revisions, is not complete, we are postponing the end of life of the Hosted Apps offering.
We will continue to update the Hosted Apps Retirement status page as we have more information, and ample notice will be provided when the new end of life date for the Hosted Apps service is announced.
Project Database Downtime 2012-11-27
Greetings,
The Project Databases for the Project Web will have some downtime for hardware maintenance tomorrow starting at 16:00 UTC on 2012-11-27.
This downtime will be a 12-hour rolling outage, with less than 60 minutes downtime for any given project.
The ability to update mysql passwords will be disabled during this entire window, and any password change attempts during that time will be processed after the downtime is complete.
