mod 135639 Report post Posted November 5, 2010 Site was down... back online now.... database crashed hard and had to restore it... not sure why yet but someone was trying to hack the server the moment it went offline so I have my suspicions it was a syn/dos attack. Still sifting over server logs... but at least we are back online. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest ***nsut***jr Report post Posted November 5, 2010 ........I go into withdrawl when this place goes down...... So the screaming, foot stomping, CPU smashing and the call to my member of Parliament was not necessary? It was the site? Thanks Mod for the behind the scenes work.

mod 135639 Report post Posted November 5, 2010 Nope it was the site. Still not sure what did it... could have just been a hiccup. We are monitoring it closely to make sure it's nothing too serious. It generated something like 20 thousand error messages and sent them all to my email so that was lots of fun to deal with too! :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
