llamaboy487 Full Member USA 516 Posts	Posted - 23 Mar 2003 : 12:26:50 WTF! My Apple /// post is gone maybe its the MordorSoft Database f*ing up again, that would seem to be the logical explanation... or maybe ~coxy went on a deleting rampage... EDIT 1: This reminds me of the DC Comics series Crisis on infinite Earths from the 80's, when all the separate DC universes merged into one and all these old-school superheroes just VANISHED... i guess we've experienced the Crisis On Infinite Forums EDIT 2: Holy crap! i lost four posts and my changes to my sig! ------------- Master of The Grand Unified Theory of 68k-based Matrix Reality Visit http://www.kevcave.tk (my Forum) ...because no one expects the Spanish Inquisition!** Edited by - llamaboy487 on 23 Mar 2003 12:39:35
Tizio Starting Member USA 20 Posts	Posted - 23 Mar 2003 : 13:05:24 I think we should start a new 68kMLA that doesn't use a Mordor$oft database. ;) rm -fr /bin/laden

I havn't seen MySql go down once. If we switch to that we won't need to switch of snitz and i think there are some mySQL import scripts. -danny You!

alphamatrix New Member USA 60 Posts	Posted - 23 Mar 2003 : 16:43:39 I must say, this is a real bummer, things have dissapeared, how many times has the damn database been down?

appleseed Starting Member Australia 40 Posts	Posted - 23 Mar 2003 : 17:43:50 Holy crap Batman. Similar things happened to the " Aqua-man" site. They moved servers something like 3 or 4 times, had to change name to " Aqua-soft then back to Aqua-man. Now you cant get any downloads from them. Apple crunch time Definition of Happy Confusion.

appleseed Starting Member Australia 40 Posts	Posted - 23 Mar 2003 : 17:45:59 Make that a double crap. I lost 10 of my posts. This should have been my 50th. Frigggggggggggn Hellllllllllllllllll Definition of Happy Confusion. A dog with two tails .
The Lightning Stalker Full Member USA 747 Posts	Posted - 23 Mar 2003 : 17:57:07 Seems like everything is gone back to a certain date. Probably since the last backup. That means either switch DB or back up more often.
scchicago Full Member USA 936 Posts	Posted - 23 Mar 2003 : 17:58:28 yeah, we should change IMHO. We should continue hosting the old one however somewhere out of the way for reference and so on, however have all the topics locked. _________________ Leutennant SCCHICAGO HotLine:scchicago.homeip.net Website:http://scchicago.homeip.net Forum: http://scchicago.homeip.net/forum

Flash Full Member Australia 637 Posts	Posted - 24 Mar 2003 : 16:45:58 I don't think we need to change forum software. What we have works very well, except for minor glitches in the matrix once in a while. I think the main problem is in a couple of the .asp's and the calls they make to the database (error line 75...etc) This could be fixed I'm sure. Transferring everything to other forum software will probably cause problems that we havn't even thought of yet. A mirror would be a great idea! my 2 cents Flash! - - - - - - - - - - - - - A little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it sure beats a blank stare for starting a conversation. 68k ParaMedic

~Coxy Leader, Tactical Ops Unit Australia 2822 Posts	Posted - 24 Mar 2003 : 18:02:55 I don't think we'll change to a MySQL database anytime soon. As it stands now, the entire site is run off the one process which serves the content you see via the ASP scripts that give us some trouble, but having to run more processes just for a set of forums when we're already paying enough for bandwidth is unviable. ~Coxy - Leader, Tactical Operations Unit Mayor of NuBus City v3.0
