|
|
There was a general outage ay the sites web hosters earlier today (affecting many sites they host)
As far as I know this was to do with access only.
No messages should have been lost.
If there are messages missing can people post here and let me know so I can investigate this.
Sorry and thanks. |

| I have lost messages. It seems like the forum "went back in time", about 30 minutes or so. |

Are the missing posts from before the site went down of after it returned?
As far as I knew my hosters had connectivity problems.
However it would seem from these posts that a restore of the database may also have occured at some point.
I will try and speak to them tomorrow and fins our exactly what happend and why. |

I had problems accessing the site all afternoon. At some point, it came back for half an hour or so, and we posted some messages, which now are gone.
I assume it was a cold reboot / database rollback thing.
I also sent you a PM during that time, asking what was wrong. |
