Forum Down [Updated]

January 9th, 2008 by Ted Kulp

EDIT: The forum is back up. See below.

Hey folks.

The forum is down for awhile until I sort out some problems. Seems that all the posts from before December 11 were removed. I’m in the process to trying to recover what I can from backups, but it’s going to take some time for me to get it all sorted out. I figured it was best to take down the forums so we lose as little data as possible as I try to do a recovery.

I’ll post when it’s fixed.

EDIT: It’s back up. The last backup I have is from Dec 7th at 13.30 GMT. I restored it and tried to merge in the data afterwards with no success. Sorry, but this is best I can do. I have no idea what happened, but I’ll be looking at the logs to see if I can figure out something. Unfortunately, I just don’t have the time to play detective, so I’ll do what I can to lock down stuff so it can’t happen again.

As a side note, my new backup hardware came in this afternoon. :) So at least next time I’ll only lose a day instead of 2.

    Well, now you’ll have to push the 2.0 release, so that we don’t care about 1.x forum entries any more :)

    Jokes aside, all the best in trying to recover whatever was lost.
