Sorry about that downtime

Jump to new
My apologies for that 45 minutes or so of interrupted service. The host needed to do a couple of minor emergency upgrades.

Hopefully everything will be back to normal now.
 
Dear ASF members,

My sincere apologies for the extended downtime this evening. It was all due to an unfortunate error on my part. We have lost all posts from approximately 3:30pm this afternoon.

There should be no further problems from now on.
 
Hey Joe ... nice downtime ! Hope all is fixed now and back on track. Gave me a chance to catchup on my sudoku and ebay obligations. 3.30pm eh? No doubt the conspiracy theorists will make something of this !

I've spent all of my evening pulling my hair out!

I wish I could blame aliens or the illuminati, but it was all my fault this time!

Has been a bit of a stressful evening. I'm going to go have a bit of a lie down.

Hey Joe ...don't want to be a bit of a killjoy in all of this but when I click on a thread it just reverts back to here?

AS IN ... if i click on the "property thread" I get directed back into this room?

Sorry to be a pain but I recommend Nitrazepam in this situation.

Damn those aliens ! ...... Just wait for the NBN .... then we can stuffit up 3000 times faster !

I just tried it myself and had the same experience. I will repair the database a bit later and hopefully that will fix it. I haven't had it happen in any other thread.

Thanks for the kind offer. The ASF server hamsters are starting to look a little weary.

I just checked the property thread again and it seems to be working okay now. Give it another shot.
 
Hey Joe ... does this also include PM's as well? As in all data was lost at ground zero 3.30pm? So therefore no PM's were saved?

Yes, all data after 3:30pm was lost, so that will include posts and PMs. We were down from about 5pm so there was only an hour and a half of lost posts and PMs. I think we even lost one new member.

I must admit I did today GG. Was trying to do too much and wasn't paying attention. Will be more cautious in future.
 



We have all done it mate, its a credit to you that I have had 32 emails from close associates with a history of infractions on ASF desperate to know what had happened.

Let us hope that the just and the innocent were similarly distressed.

ASF Rules OK.

A great site.

Due to you .

Keep it up mate.

AY CARAMBA ! Oh well ..... must be one of those time loop thingys where we have to relive it all again. Just like dinner ..... it is repeating on me. Again.

Hey Joe

Thanks for the quick email response letting me know what was happening. Certainly put my mind at ease when I initially couldn't login then couldn't access the site.

Keep up the good work.
