Rolled the forums back

Post by Uncle Jesse »

Yet again.

For those of you who are unix savvy, load was at 120. Error logs through the roof. I'm going to pull in a friend or two tomorrow to see if we can suss out what keeps going wrong but I can't rule out a malicious actor. I may have to upgrade the OS and MySQL and if so, that is a lot of heavy lifting.

I am not computer savvy at all, but have missed the forum the past few days.
Thx UJ.

I missed it until TB emailed me today. Glad it's back up.

Thanks for getting it up again Jesse, and thanks for all the work you put into keeping this up and running.

Not Unix savvy, but appreciate just how much effort goes into keeping systems like this alive.

Have felt a bit lost without my nightly HD fix.

Totally appreciate the work that will be needed on your part to get this squared up.

Perhaps once the issue is resolved and all is running smoothly again, a donation push would be a good idea?

In my opinion, anyone who has benefited from the amassed knowledge here, either from direct answers to their problems, or just by reading through the forum to learn something, would be rude not to at least donate the minimum when prompted.

Thanks UJ! I’m kicking in another donation to help keep this great forum going.
