All apologies for the downtime today. I have layed out below the root cause:

 

This afternoon the datacenter that we have our server with had a power outage which immediately shut off power to BuzzJack. This locked and corrupted our database due to the immediate shutdown of our server. As people visited the site during the day the corrupted database was unable to display posts and topics and continually shut down under the strain and then restarted.

 

We are now fully back with no loss of posts and another page added to the "BuzzJack Emergency Document"! This will ensure that if this ever happens again we have a step by step procedure to get us back online faster :).

 

Thanks, Phil

The site seems to be more efficient and been very responsive, I think sometimes its worth to give it a spring clean, at least we are back on track, I really thought the bill wasn't paid :heehee:

agree. We should really optimise the database posts table every few months. Im going to look into this. Bed at 12am up at 5:30am was an unexpected surprise :lol:

 

Thanks so much for your hard work Phil. It really is appreciated ^_^

Indeed I'm very happy to come online today and find the site back to normal.

Me too. Thanks for sorting it out Phil :cheer:

Thanks for fixing Phil, much appreciated.

Thanks Phil. You deserve a reward for all your hard work :)

Ta Phil :)

Thank god I wasn't here at that time. :heehee:

 

Anyway, cheers Phil. :)
