All my 3 sites are down. The status page says "everything is fine" which we all know it's not true. No ping, no FTP, no web access, no SQL, e-mail barely works.
What is letting us all angry is the denial. Assume there are huge problems with your system, be honest with us, and we can be a lot more patient. Just don't tell us that things are fine when they aren't.
If you are going to post a message saying that your sites are down, at least post a URL that we can check. Otherwise, your comments become just a pointless rant.
I would and could do as you are requesting but not in here, I'd do it in the status page instead, if I wasn't being tagged as a spammer (???) in the status blog comments. There I would probably get much more useful answers than here it seems, or would they call me a ranting user there too?
If I don't have anywhere to post my "rants" (which I prefer to call "genuine customer complaints" instead), I'm really doomed.
You are first assuming that the problem is in my site specifically, and with a single visit to the status page you can see that i'm just another "unplugged" customer (how many of them exist right now?).
The only way you can get other customers to help you is to post the problem URL(s) here, otherwise why bother posting at all? You are going to get exactly zero answers in the status blog, which is designed for informing, rather than conversing. If everything is "dead", opening a support ticket is the way to go.
I agree with scjessy. This is just a useless rant unless you actually post your sites so that others can verify they are down or not.
Also, filing a ticket about your sites being down works wonders. In my experience anyways.
My sites are up and currently fully operational… and I've experienced very little downtime with DH unless it was planned. So if your server is actually down, then filing a ticket would help you more than just ranting here, as I would say it would certainly be an unusual occurrence.
If support didn't actually help you and you DID indeed already file a ticket, then asking for help here or even ranting about it I could see as appropriate (as I would probably do the same ).
http://mamidelux.com - a wordpress blog, went down five days ago without explanation, support told me yesterday that I could be consuming more than my share of memory and that i should try make my site as light as possible. Sure, I will as soon as i can get access to my site.
What kind of compensation should I expect for all of this lost business?
support told me yesterday that I could be consuming more than my share of memory and that i should try make my site as light as possible. Sure, I will as soon as i can get access to my site.
Sounds like you are in a lot better shape than marcuswhinus; you now KNOW what the problem is on your site.
I am confused, however, about you not being able to get "access to your site". Can you not ssh or ftp to your user space? After all, that is where you will need to do your tuning, and optimizing and via the PhpMyAdmin interface to your MySQL host, so you can index your tables and such.
If you can't ssh or ftp to your user space, you should generate a ticket immediately so you can begin to bring your site's resource usage back into line. If you show that you are making the effort, I'll bet you can get support to help you - maybe something as simple as enabling WP's cache, doing something to curtail comment spam, or curtailing the use of some mis-behaving plug-in might just do the trick.
You seem to have a very good command of the English language, so you should have no trouble figuring that out per the Terms of Service to which you agreed when you signed up for an account - short answer: nothing.
Of course, if you are within the first 97 days of your service, and qualify regarding your method of payment, you can get all the money you have paid Dreamhost back. If, on the other hand, you are talking about "consequential damages" or "business interruption expense", you are out of luck, as the ToS very clearly absolves DH of any such responsibility.
Just a note for the future: If you are going to have "business critical" sites that use the resources it appears you might be using (based on your report of DH's statements to you referenced in your post), you might be well advised to make a business decision and spring for you own server so you don't have to share resources.
All that said, if you can provide more details (WP version, cache status, Plug-ins used), and need help curtailing resource usage or need help in indexing your tables, I'm sure there are those here on the forum who are willing to help you with that should you need it.
Work with DH to address the problems; they will generally go the extra mile if they can.

First off, I can confirm that I cannot access either of these sites from my location in Pennsylvania. I am able to access the server for mamidelux.com, but not the site itself. I can access other sites on the same server, which suggests the problem is specific to your sites. Since you state that you have no FTP access either, you must rely on the support system for a resolution to this problem.
Secondly, it is never wise to put any mission-critical system on shared hosting, because it means you are at the mercy of the people you share a server with. In this case, however, it seems that you are the one running some sort of iffy script that is causing memory problems, making the other people on the shared server at your mercy instead! If DreamHost are saying that the problem on your site is your fault, you can't expect them to offer any sort of compensation, can you?
I have no difficulty accessing the server by ftp or the database by mysql.domain.com.
I would and could do as you are requesting but not in here, I'd do it in the status page instead, if I wasn't being tagged as a spammer (???) in the status blog comments.
Well, if that's what you perceive to be a legitimate use of the comment section of a "Status Blog", then I say "Bravo" for what ever bit of software magic DH used to anticipate the appropriateness of your "comment" and prevent you from posting there - I want me some of that, that sounds like some pretty neat stuff!
Hey, "rant anywhere you can that makes you feel better; it's not nearly as efficient as addressing your problem in a business-like and professional manner, but suit yourself.
It looks like you are unfortunate in that you are, at present, one of maybe even dozens of users (out of hundreds of thousands) who might be effected by a crashed server or a a piece of wonky network gear - I'd get right on that with support so that they can get it fixed if I were you.
Dreamhost is a big network, and any single server can impact a group of people while the rest of the network runs fine - the status page is not going to report each such instance (though, actually, of late they have been very good about keeping users informed of even single server issues).
At any rate, if you really feel as though you are "really doomed" over something like this, I suggest you consider if you really want to be hosting sites on others boxen - if stuff breaking is going to send you into such a funk that you feel the need to rant, the stress of shared hosting is eventually gonna be the death of you. You might try working your way through the issues as opposed to complaining - it may or may not work any better (though in my experience, it usually does) but at least your stress level ought to be more manageable.
I sincerely hope you get your issue resolved sooner rather than latter; DH is actually a pretty fine host when things are working right, but it is not for everyone - if you are "new" you might want to consider the 97 Day Money Back Guarantee and look for a host that can guarantee their machines will never break (we're talking about an SLA here), and get your checkbook out, because it will be expensive.
Your sites is not "down" - I'm getting Internal Server Errors if you wait long enough. This means Apache is working. You should see error messages in your error.log file. That might help figure out what is wrong with your site.
So if Apache is working but your content doesn't come up, you have to rule out things that are your responsibility - .htaccess files, applications like WordPress and its plugins, other scripts, etc. And you only need FTP or SSH. One thing you can try to do is remove the .htaccess file and the index.php temporarily to see if you can get an immediate response from Apache.
Wow. I think you are running the most plug-ins I have ever seen on a single WP instance . While I have not taken the time to research all the plug-ins you are using, and isolate which may be the biggest culprits, I can tell you that running that many plug-ins can very easily push your resource usage way past acceptable levels.
1). Read and investigate the information available on the WordPress Support Forum (a good place to start might be with this search). There is helpful information there, as well as in the WordPress Codex.
You can either start to eliminate plug-ins using ftp or ssh (which will generate errors on your pages when a plug-in can't be found) and write to support describing what you have done asking then to re-enable http access to your site, so you can start "selectively" re-adding plug-ins using the WP-Admin section to reinstall them, monitoring usage as you do so. To disable the plugins in this manner, just rename your plugin directory to some temporary name.
Write to support and explain that what you have already done, and ask them to re-enable access via http so that you can use the WP-Admin section to disable plug-ins "gracefully" without generating errors on your sites. I would offer to disable every plug-in except the ones they specifically say should be "ok" temporarily in order to lighten the load on the server, then add them back one-at-a -time until I saw the resource usage start to spike again.
Obviously, the second alternative is better for your visitors, as they wont see "errors" when WP tries to use plug-ins that are disabled.
You should also ask for any recommendation that they may have as to what plug-ins might be the most problematic, or you could research that yourself via the excellent resources (support forum /codex) at WordPress.org.
There are, I'm sure, other ways to attack this, but this is the method I would use; DH should be very receptive to this approach, as it temporarily returns your WordPress installation into a fairly "bare-bones" instance, you have shown a willingness to work to fix the problem, and you have taken the initiative to index your MySQL tables to help with the site's efficiency.
I know it is discouraging to have to deal with this, but I don't see any way some action of this type can be avoided. Others may also see these posts and offer additional help, and don't forget that the WordPress.org resources are excellent and they are the experts when it comes to WordPress! Good luck, and let us know how it goes or if there is any other help we can provide.
Thank you again. I contacted DH and outlined what I have tried and that I'm willing to (do anything) work with them.
Meanwhile I will check indexes.
I also disabled plugins by renaming the plugins folder. It gave me problems with wp_cache but once i reinstated that it didn't improve the situation.
I renamed htaccess and index.html which gave me a listing of all the wp files in my directory on the screen.
Should DH be able to tell me the exact source of the problem as in the offending plugin?
You're welcome, and I hope you guys can work together to get it under control.
They might have some experience with particular plugins that they know to be problematic, but I don't know that you can count on them being able to debug that sufficiently for you.
If you enable the plugins singly, then monitor your resource usage via the shell, you should be able to see which ones are causing the greatest loads. From there, you can mix-and-match to find what runs well together without borking the server. Don't forget the WP folks either, they may have some valuable input.
I'm hopeful you can get it sorted relatively quickly and get back to enjoying hosting your site.
[quote]Thank you for your helpful response.
Each of those plug-ins uses up a certain percentage of CPU horsepower and memory. You have lots and lots of plug-ins there, and I can see where you might be pushing things a little too far. It's also true that one plug-in can cause problems with another in the same way that the wrong kind of system enhancements can cause troubles for Mac OS and Windows users.
So I agree with the folks here that disabling as many plug-ins as you can will help you diagnose the cause of your troubles. You might also want to look at all your plug-ins and see which ones you absolutely do not need. You may find a leaner and meaner approach works better.
Thank you for your advice Gene.
Shouldn't I be able to disable plugins by removing them from the server (via ftp) (still no http access)?
Any idea how to monitor CPU usage so that when i start adding back plugins I see which of them is causing a spikes or disproportionate CPU usage?
[quote]Thank you for your advice Gene.
Yes, you can remove them that way. But as to CPU usage, it can only be done on a once-a-day basis (you can search DreamHost's Wiki on the subject). I wish there were another way, but I'm not sure how.
In addition to the "daily " monitoring Gene mentioned (see the DH Wiki article on User Resource Reporting, you can always log into the shell and check the total load on the server at any time with the "w" or "uptime"command.
While it shows the total server load, including other users, since your usage is included in that total, you should be able to get some idea as to what plug-in is causing a large increase in CPU usage or RAM usage when it is running.
You could even arrange a cron job to run "w" and pip the results to file for later rebiew, though that may be a overkill for your purposes.
My account contains several domains, mostly wordpress.
Each wordpress blog is associated with 1 user name.
I added a new user ( usr_md_x "Margarita Mami x") but don't understand how i can associate this user with the blog. Do I associate a new user with the database (db_md)?
And when i figure that out how do I "spread out the scripts" ? I can't find any of this info in the wiki.
Finally, I have turned off all scripts (plugins) in all the affected blogs but they are still down."
Response time from support is about 1 per 12 hours so progress is slow. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Each file on your account has a user assigned to it, probably all to the same user unless you've played around with multiple users.
This needs to be enabled on your user account (Manage Users) in the panel.
Here's a link to the wiki write-up on it.

House GOP Moves Ahead on Suing Obama
by Washington Informer July 11, 2014 October 30, 2020

DONNA CASSATA, Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) — House Republicans took the initial step on Thursday to sue President Barack Obama over the administration's decision to delay the employer mandate of the health care law.
The office of Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, released a draft of the resolution that would authorize the House to file suit amid GOP criticism that the president has declined to faithfully execute the laws of the country.
"In 2013, the president changed the health care law without a vote of Congress, effectively creating his own law by literally waiving the employer mandate and the penalties for failing to comply with it," Boehner said in a statement. "That's not the way our system of government was designed to work. No president should have the power to make laws on his or her own."
The so-called employer mandate was written into the law as a guardrail to discourage employers from shifting workers into taxpayer-subsidized coverage. Under those rules, companies with 50 to 99 workers must provide coverage or pay a $2,000-per-worker fine.
The administration gave businesses an extra year to comply with the health care law's requirement to offer coverage.
The House Rules Committee has scheduled a hearing on the resolution next week, with a House vote later this month.
Obama has called the GOP effort a "stunt" and criticized lawmakers for inaction on legislation such as a stalled bill to overhaul the nation's immigration system.
"I mean, think about that," Obama said Thursday in Austin, Texas, as he criticized Republicans anew. Addressing them, he said: "You're going to use taxpayer money to sue me for doing my job, while you don't do your job."
White House press secretary Josh Earnest reiterated that position and linked it to economic initiatives, saying in a statement that "Republican leaders in Congress are playing Washington politics rather than working with the president on behalf of hardworking Americans."
Drew Hammill, a spokesman for Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi, said the effort was a waste of taxpayer dollars. "This lawsuit is just another distraction from House Republicans desperate to distract the American people from their own spectacular obstruction and dysfunction," Hamill said.
Boehner's actions on the lawsuit come as some Republicans are demanding a far more formidable step — impeachment.
Former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin and others have called for Obama's impeachment. Boehner said Thursday that he disagrees with those calls, but asserts that others can make a determination on their own whether the chief executive deserves it.
Obama made light of the calls for impeachment while in Texas. "You hear some of them — 'sue him,' 'impeach him.' Really?" he asked to laughter. "Really? For what?"

Just improved jump instructions doing the same as CALL instructions in protected mode, except not switching stacks and copying data between stacks), both depending on the operand size either the instruction used(D-bit combined with operand-size override prefix) or gate size(for call gate) for stack operations and data copying(between the two stacks). Also improved IRET support for (E)FLAGS and unchanging flags(IOPL and Interrupt flag).Now, no exceptions occur after the initial mode set(HIMEM.SYS moving memory high?), before triple faulting with 3 #GP nested exceptions on a INT 21h(0x00000000 size 0xFFFF IDT?)?
Current Windows 3.0 protected mode until triple fault?
Eventually improved the seperation between the two sublevels of instruction steps(instruction level(the instruction handler itself) vs internal level(the general instruction handlers) vs modr/m level(which both can be on either instruction level or internal level)). Having seperated those properly, Windows 95 setup now continues on somewhat, without saying anything(eventually clearing the screen into what seems like graphics mode), ending up at an infinite HLT(with interrupt flag cleared).
Something I do see occuring, is that it's moving data using MOVSB between two memory areas, eventually executing RET and ending up into initialized RAM(Filled with 0x0000 words, which execute as a valid MOV instruction until eventually crashing)?
Anyone has a log at 3000kIPS(like from Dosbox) which shows what's running when executing MS-DOS 5.0 from the harddisk, then running the SETUP.EXE on the root of a Windows 95B CD-ROM?
Edit: Running it again with only HIMEM.SYS, VIDE-CDD.SYS and MSCDEX.EXE loaded in memory, it now crashes on a opcode 63h /5 #UD in real mode? It happens at C132:D4FA? That would equal physical address CE81A, which would be kind of strange, seeing as it's within the hard disk ROM? C6000 is the start of the hard disk ROM, which ends at C8000, but after that there's only the copy of the physical BIOS that's mapped as shadow RAM, which goes from E0000-FFFFF?
Edit: Managed to make a common emulator log of it running until the #UD(ARPL) instruction.
UniPCemu logs of Windows 95 setup running it's course.
Second part of the split 7z file.
To use, rename 001.7z to 7z.001 and 002.7z to 7z.002 and open the archive for the log file(7GB when extracted).
Can anyone see why the setup fails? What's going wrong?
Just ran the IBM AT again with the Supersoft/Landmark BIOS. It still tries to somehow load 0x0000 into CS through an IRET? Can anyone see why it's actually loading that value into CS? Is there a stack problem somehow?
SuperSoft/Landmark BIOS running in protected mode.
Edit: Noticed the bug at the end where the SP values change after a task switch to the same task. This has now been fixed, but the software still crashes at the same point?
Just found a bug that caused non-code segment descriptors to not check for lower privilege when loading said descriptor without a gate. Now all descriptor loads(as well as task switches) should properly check CPL against either the gate descriptor or against the segment descriptor itself(when not gated).
Edit: Whoops, it seems that task switches were also pushing error codes of -1 when triggered through a segment write(loading CS with a TSS or TSS gate), even though it shouldn't do that.
So in this case, it was pushing an error code of 0 each time a task was switched or -2 during an interrupt causing a task switch.
I've fixed a little bug in setting the active LDTR(it was loading the descriptor cache, but not loading the segment selector with it).
Now, looking at the task switches themselves, it looks fine. But when performing the second task switch(which should use identical physical base addresses of the TSS(just different segment selectors)), somehow the wrong TSS seems to be loaded?
2. Switch to task 0048(CALL). Afterwards, DS=000C. Task 0048=Nested because of the CALL.
3. Task switches from 0048 to 0058(different descriptor, same TSS, as shown by the initial loads at the start of the protected mode test(the TSS notes above)) using JMP. SP and FLAGS change state drastically(SP:0800 becomes 0600, FLAGS: 4046 becomes 0002, becoming an invalid task)?
00:03:33:47.08384: Loading incoming TSS 0058 state into the registers.
00:03:33:47.09520: New task ready for execution.
It's somehow loading the wrong task in this?
It seems to use the TSS at 000420(actually the TSS ) to store the TSS to leave, instead of the correct location said TSS descriptor at 0420 points to? So it's using the Gate Descriptor base address instead of the TSS descriptor base address?
1. Loading task 0058 results in base 044C, selector 0058.
2. Loading task 0048 results in base 0420, selector 0048.
3. Loading task 0068 results in base 0478, selector 0068.
Looking at the TSS sizes, there should be no overlap between the three of them.
Then, it executes the first task switch(task 0068 still loaded in TR as the current task).
So, the first task switch(CALL 0078:0000) saves the task at 000478(When at task 0068). Then it loads task 0048, which has a base of 000420, loads said TSS registers and continues with being a nested task nested within task 0068. Data required is written back to the TSS and execution continues within the new, nested, task.
Then it eventually jumps to 0080:0000. Said descriptor is a gate descriptor to task 0058. A task switch to task 0058 is started. The descriptor points to a base of 44C. State is stored at a base of 000420. Task 0048 is marked idle and it's state is stored at location 000420. The new task(task 0058) is loaded as the new current task(state being stored at a base of 00044C. Since no backlink occurs, the task cannot return to task 0048 and 0068 properly.
So the task 0058 is executing as a standalone task, being unable to return to ít's parent task in any normal way(by using normal IRET without stack being manipulated).
The next task switch by the same jump to segment 0080:0000 saves state and restores the state from it's own task, thus continuing the same task after the jump.
Then another one with the very same effect(nothing changes other than the value at DS:[BX]).
And another one x21. So 22 times the very same jump to it's own task.
Then it tries to execute an IRET to return to it's caller, but since the Nested Task has been left at the very beginning(which shouldn't be a problem on it's own), no backlink is stored for said task(to actually return to said task), nor is anything pushed on the stack to do anything valid with the IRET. So this just results in the stack popping NULL(0000h) values(since the SS limit is FFFFh with a base of 1000h).
The IRET pops a IP value of 55AA, CS value of 55AAh and a FLAGS value of 55AAh. It then throws a #GP for CS selector 55AA, external bit set, table being the GDT.
The BIOS doesn't like this, so it terminates the testing?
Anything else happening on other emulators?
Just trying to run Microsoft Flight simulator 5.1 seems to install, but once running, nothing is displayed on the screen? Most of the display is just some shade of gray?
Microsoft Flight Simulator 5.1 displaying gray display?
Edit: Just tried running the very same application on the img file using Dosbox, where it runs the videos and everything just fine?
Is this maybe a protected mode issue? Or is this a calculation issue? Does it run on plain VGA?
Time to take out the old UniPCemu server again and check for internet connection!
Finally gotten Arachne running on UniPCemu(setting it up for EMS on the EMM386 driver)!
The only odd problem that happens now, is that it seems to display(and probably send/receive) all modem commands with spaces between each letter.
Where Dosbox displays "ATZ<ENTER>OK"(<ENTER> is a newline), UniPCemu instead displays "A T Z<ENTER>O K"? Something's definitely wrong there?
After that happens on UniPCemu, it tries to load the SLIP8250.COM driver, which starts and fails, hanging the whole emulation(leaving the Arachne Lock file in place, which has the problem that restarting arachne after a reboot causes a terribly slow loading time due to the image on the background of the page being loaded:S).
But it's at least some progress, isn't it?
Arachne being locked(page loads very slow, image showing the page fully loaded).
It seems that arachne itself is running properly, but miniterm.exe is actually screwing up the AT commands somehow(it sends a correct ATQ command, but doesn't receive it's data correctly(it displays each character received with a space added after it).
The only two commands it sends is ""(Empty command) and ATQ, after which it determines that the modem isn't responding?
Just found out that the protected-mode segmentation unit wasn't complete yet: it was still missing it's support for the accessed bit to be set when a segment descriptor is loaded. I've implemented that now. I've also added some additional support for page faults during segment loads/stores, causing a page fault like earlier, but now suppressing the caller from faulting itself(thus causing double/triple faults). So now, once it encounters a fault in any point of the call tree(within the emulator), any fault will cause the tree to be walked up again without causing any new faults(instead of faulting again on the result, causing a double/triple fault when the (double/triple) fault handler is invoked).
Just tried reinstalling Windows 3.0(to rule out corrupted files), while running MS-DOS 5.0 with himem, emm386, vide-cdd(high), mscdex and ctmouse loaded. It seems to still having a buggy mouse, while hanging when reaching the "Building program manager groups... Main" step?
Edit: Still no response after that? I don't see any other faults being raised from Virtual 8086 mode other than the interrupt 0x1C and 0x08 interrupts firing? Anyone?
Windows 3.0 setup hanging in Virtual 8086 mode(EMM386)?
Anyone knows about problems with Windows 3.0 setup running within Virtual 8086 mode of MS-DOS 6.22 EMM386.EXE?
Edit: It seems to be a problem with the normal code execution itself? It seems to keep loading a 0000h value into AX from DS: and keeping running the same loop infinitely?
Just reversed the (I)MUL code to properly determine various flags(sign, zero, parity) depending on the lower half of the results for all those instructions(for the GRP3a/GRP3b variants of (I)MUL), but the microsoft flight simulator still won't show the 3D models? It does show the cockpit properly, but the entire field that's shown by the view(both view 1 and view 2) results in a gray area?
Now that I think about it: Windows 3.0 setup building the program manager groups usually shows the program manager actually filling up with those groups while it's doing that. But in the UniPCemu running in EMM386 Virtual 8086 mode, that doesn't show, other than the window with the message that it's building the Main program group?
So it's failing to start some program there(probably the program manager)?
Edit: Just tried it again without EMM386.EXE loaded. The program groups get properly built now(running in Real mode instead of Virtual 8086 mode).
Is anything known about issues running the Windows 3.0 setup while having MS-DOS 6.22 EMM386.EXE loaded? Does this happen on a real PC as well?
Program groups building up in Real mode, but not in Virtual 8086 mode?
Just tried Flight Simulator 4, running the demo until flying off the airport, then terminating demo mode and resuming flight. Doing nothing, the airplane crashed towards the ground until a crash occurred right away? So does that mean my CPU contains logic that is faulty? Or do you actually need to do something to keep the plane in the air?
Edit: After the last dirty/accessed Paging/Segmentation improvements, EMM386 using EMS is finally detected within Windows 3.0 running in Real mode!
Although, running the MS-DOS prompt within Windows returns to a fullscreen COMMAND.COM prompt with unresponsive input?
Strange that the test386.asm testsuite(which does extended tests on the shift/rotate instructions) passes the x86 shift/rotate instructions, while the 80186 tests(actually 80286 or higher, judging from the high 4 bits of FLAGS not always being set) from the CPC emulator fail those very same instructions? Anyone?
Just tried booting a floppy again with correct (0x33 in CMOS RAM byte 0x10) CMOS information loaded. Still, the Compaq Deskpro 386 BIOS still is double seeking the FDC for some odd reason?
This seems to be caused by it reaching F000:909B, at which point it loads 0x61 into the drive information flags for the drive(thus setting it up for double seeking, which is incorrect for the emulated drives).
Edit: The jump at 00009087 to that block of code only happens when the CMOS checksum is bad(which it is), so that will cause the default 0x61 value to be loaded?
This only happens when SS:[BP+5]>0x27(>39, thus track 40+?) it seems. SS:[BP+5] is 00h(track 0), so nothing is done about it.
Now the question, what clears the Bad Checksum bit when running the BIOS.
Edit: After setting it up with basic settings (720K floppy drives instead of the actual 1.44/2.88MB drives that are emulated) using the gsetup program from the hard disk, it properly boots the setup floppies, but instead of running normally, I end up at a white screen with the program hanging because of interrupt 21h points to what seems to be a part of then end of an IRQ handler, which acnowledges any remaining interrupts to the PIQ which then terminates, instead of actually doing something in the MS-DOS interrupt 21h handler?
Just finished configuring the Compaq Deskpro 386 with 720K(maximum supported) floppies using GSETUP. Then configured the IBM AT using GSETUP and booted the AT Diagnostics 2.00 disk, which eventually errors out on what seems to be the CMOS(according to the error reported), after which it crashes?
Hmmm... Something odd is happening: The AT BIOS(rev 2 mobo emulated and ROM used@6MHz) seems to hang when no 0xFA is received before 0x55 during the 8042 0xAA self test command, but the diagnostics BIOS doesn't approve, only passing the test without the received 0xFA(only 0x55 received)?


It's 2017 and we are geared up for a brand new year of opportunities for Amazon sellers. We are stoked and can't wait to help you!
No matter where you are in your journey, we want to either help you continue to grow your business, or start a new one.

Wow! What a month for our YouTube channel!
Our video expert, Lenny, has been working hard. This month marked the addition of a new video series, it's called 'Ask Jungle Scout'. This is where we take questions from you and share our tips and insights.
So other than constantly sharing new and interesting content with our viewers, we're also constantly looking for ways to improve and fine tune the Jungle Scout toolkit. We recently took a long hard look at Niche Hunter to find ways to present actionable data in a more concise format.
To do this, we removed some graphs and gave you more niches, with more complete data. This means that now you can understand more about the niche quickly, with a easy-to-read overview.
If you weren't really sure about the Niche Hunter before, take a deeper look at our updated version. Please shoot us any feedback about these changes, we are always looking for ways to improve, so we would love to hear what you think!
January saw even more stores added to the web app. Namely, we added Mexico, Italy, India and Spain. We added all of these marketplaces for the extension in December, and now we have them in the web app, too!
With a quick click, you can add products straight from your Jungle Scout Pro extension to your Product Tracker.
These new stores are in beta, so we will continue to add more products to the database and niches/keywords to Niche Hunter. Keep an eye on those new stores, you will be able to watch these as they grow! ?
Tax season is just around the corner, and I wish I could give you a tax fairy who does everything for you.
But, we have the next best option! Customizable invoices!!!
Now, right from your billing section in Jungle Scout, you can edit your company details so you have everything you need at a click of a button. Edit, download and conquer this tax season!
January brought a lot of knowledge bombs!
We started our new series, 'Ask Jungle Scout', where Lenny answers questions submitted by you in a clear and digestible manner (I'm sure you've already seen it above). Have some questions you want answered? Make sure you send them to us in the comment section of the videos here.
We also added videos on email campaigns and verifying demand.
Greg and Shane (our webinar heroes) have been hard at work with webinars too. Shane joined forces with TaxJar, to help Amazon sellers understand the ins and outs of FBA sales taxes, while Greg did one with Mark Adams about the Canton Fair. He also joined forces with Dom Wells, chatting about Amazon affiliate opportunities.
Here is the replay of the affiliates webinar. It covers how to find an Amazon niche, and has some awesome research tactics that can be applied to finding a physical product idea as well. You can get the slides here.
Whew! That's an awesome start to 2017!
What's more, we just announced our new case study for 2017 – The Million Dollar Case Study. Yes that's right, we're setting out to sell a million dollars worth of physical product. If that doesn't get you intrigued I don't know what will, make sure you don't miss this one and join us for the ride.
Check out the Million Dollar Case Study here!

I use the Chrome extension only a few days, but there is one thing that bothered me a bit.
The average price is displayed. This is unhelpful, as there are very often extreme price differences in a page.
I think it would be the better solution here to display the median.
This makes it much easier to estimate the real average price.
