Bad DAY for RFF

[MP Guy]

Had a really bad day here today. Looks like I trusted someone who was going to turn opn some features here. They ended up dropping the database. I can only call this a malicious act. I have just restored a 2:00 am backup and things seem to be normal. again with the exception of the missing data since then. My apologies to you which have posted and your threads are gone.

Jorge,
Thankyou for getting things back online. No major upgrade is without its pitfalls and setbacks, and of course "complainers". You are going to owe your wife a nice dinner out after all of the time you spent laboring over the computer for us.

Jorge -- And a big thank you from me. I know upgrades don't always go as planned. Actually, they never do. Thanks for all the work in making this an even better place!

What can be posted can be reposted.

Shit happens, no problem.
If you think about replicating your MySQL Databases, I can send you a setup which works for me 🙂

 

[MP Guy]

Socke,

Please do. I use Oracle and Informix at work with replication. However, cant seem to do it with MYSQL

 

[Socke]

It's quite easy. Not in the same class as Oracle RAC or even Informix HRC, but more than workable. I'll send you a mail tomorrow as I'm now on my way to a Samba Show 🙂

do the samba!

Jorge,

Sorry for your bad luck with the site today but I certainly do appreciate that it exists and thank you for all your efforts.

Cheers,

Sean

Just a note: It appears that the new software allows multiple Photo Attachments for a Post. I tried the feature, but 2 of the 3 images were someone else's uploads. When editing, I can see that my image uploaded. When viewing the thread, the "other" images appear in Thumbnail form and when clicked-on.

Jorge, time to turn off the computer and go out to Dinner!

Sorry to hear of your woes, Jorge... But even though the site clock seems to be marching at a different drummer, here we the RFF members think you're a great lad!

Good sport, buddy! Just keep a stiff upper lip 🙂

One can tell I've been watching too much PBS... 😱

Jorge, use some RFF donations for a good dinner with your wife, you deserve it, and she too ! 😀

We all appreciate all the time you have put into the RFF over the last couple weeks. Data is data, we are all still here though, thanks to you.

Upgrades are a bumpy road (sometimes).
But if the suffering is worth it and a fantastic new RFF experience waits at the end of the tunnel... 🙂

Keep on going, I enjoy the forum.

I must say I LOVE the new logo Jorge !!! And the 'similar threads' feature !

E-Mail notification in the gallery doesn't work with me anymore. Maybe due to the above mentionned events?

RF is a fine site on the net, one of my favourite.
