Forum crash this evening

Yes the forum crashed tonight right after the Als beat the REDBLACKS. Thankfully it happend after the game. A component broke on the server and I had to work my back in and disable that component. I have the forum restored back to fully operational. Sorry for the inconvenience.

holy crap, that was ugly. I know what the problem is and it’s a line of code that was updated in the core program by the vendor. that change didn’t take effect on our server til tonight. thankfully I was able to access the error logs and figure out what it was and resolve it for the time being.

That problem was actually my second guess. Glad you’re handling the technical end.

yea when i say component, i’m meaning a software component, not hardware. the physical host server is fine. a piece of code broke the software. LOL

It must have been just a short blip because I didn’t even notice that it went down.

Thanks for the the quick repair.

yea that makes sense because once I was able to get in I was fixing it for a bit before I was able restore it.

My guess was that she’d spilled her drink on the keyboard.

I’ve done that many times so that would suck if it was possible

It could have been those “Riders on the Storm” making their presence known to us as part of the rescue mission for Dave and family in Southern California.

This happened very soon after my post.

Read all about it in the game thread folks. It’s a true story, and it happened tonight too along with who knows what else now.

that song is about a serial killer who killed a bunch of people, including a family of 5 people. very morbid indeed.

Ah so. You’d mentioned the lightning strike in the background just before Grideron Girl’s computer event occurred. Coincidence Paolo? Or is there a ghost in the machine?

Screw the Forum I’d be more mad at the wasted glass of wine. :smile:

It saved your life? Or it saved you a few bucks on your next purchase?

Do tell.

We have to wait until after the storm. I’m not screwing with their progress or distracting them now after they’ve been obviously unleashed tonight.

not my computer. the server down in Seattle is where all this software is hosted.
