Server Crash: 08 January 2010
We had a couple of server crashes; one last evening at 19:30 and another this morning at 06:00.
Webfusion were aware and had problems. One crash later (that i did not see) corrupted both the FCF and BXC databases.
Luckily a low-level repair on the affected table worked and we're back in business.
I have very recent backups should it happen again
I'm watching carefully.

The server went down again at 18:30 this evening but guess what! It was to give me a new server
Completely without my knowledge, they moved all the data from the old to the new.. It seems OK too...
Hopefully this one will last and not go up and down like a fiddlers elbow...
Fingers and everything else crossed...

I wondered that Steve, especially in view of me stating politely what I thought of them late this afternoon...myglaren wrote:They probably read this thread
Strange this was, I call the tech support when it went down this evening and they had no knowledge of the move. It was only when I received an e-mail with new login credentials that the penny dropped and I realised what they had done..
I've had a wander over the new server and it is new.
I won't be happy until it's lasted a month with no issues whatsoever. W2K3 never failed....

I've been back onto the host this morning and they're having difficulties with the node...
They promise after one more session tomorrow morning that all will then be good. Likely the forums will be unavailable overnight again....
I'm this is the case....

Sorry Anders It's how I wrote it!AndersDK wrote:WTF ?
The ENGINEERS - not the equipment - had a glitch ?
Are they still carrying data back & forth between mainframe cabinet units using 8" 150Kb floppies ...
As then I would understand why they had an engineers glitch
BTW happy new year to all 8)
I still remember 150K 8" floppies. Up until about three years ago I still looked after a mainframe with those And the 64Mb Cartridge disks about the size of a fridge... Those were the days!
Great to see you on here and a very happy new year

Sorry to report that the site was down when I tried to log on at about 9:00pm this evening.
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

Same here. Had to go out at 17:00. When I returned at 19:30 it was down and has just been resurrected.
