I hate those Isihara (sp?) tests. I fail them everytime - nothing but a bunch of different sized dots.

Careful with the BETA software.  :-X


There is a reason SMF advises against running it on a production site. BTW...still getting SMF unable to connect to database errors.
I don't know just where I'm going
But I'm gonna try for the kingdom, if I can

pp.com is a parked site :P

if you mean PayPal ... it's been a while since I worked there but I'm pretty sure they aren't powered by SMF ???

I wondered about that too...the SMF download page says dont do it.

You really should stick with the 1.1.X series. I wouldnt make the move until the 2.0 FINAL release has some time in the water.

Replying still seems a bit horked...the post goes through, but refreshes to an error page.

says: Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator. "

fwiw, the downtime is not related to the SMF version, it's a result of a problem that occurred on the old server, which is why we had to move. A hardware failure froze the old machine and the drives had to be put in a temporary box so I could do the transfer. The crash corrupted several small parts of the database which may be causing the errors. SMF sensed the error and tried to repair it. The problem is the taperssection.com database is over 2Gigs so a full repair can take upto and over 24 hours. When a repair is executed, the database is locked, and all future requests are put into a queue. When the queue is full, the database refuses any more connections, thus "unable to connect to database" errors.

It's very frustrating from my standpoint, but I am working on it, and doing as much work as possible late night as not to interrupt the site during peak hours. I am not a db admin by trade, but am working with a few friends who are and hoping we can get this smoothed out easily. The database is just so gosh dang big ;)

Thanks for understanding and for your patience!

just tried to reply to a post, got an error - sorry didn't copy it but it's been quoted here earlier today, I'll see if I can find it - when I tried to post my reply again I got a message that I had already posted the reply.

Same thing when I tried to post here:

I'm getting a database error when attempting to load sent PMs.

Thanks for the continued work Bri. If you need extra DBA hands, I've got a friend/former co-worker who is a mysql wizard and manages DB's well over 2GB in size. Feel free to PM me if you need me to tap him for some extra assistance or just to bounce things off of.

Trying to remove or move a post:

Database Error
Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator.


Update:  Upon refreshing the page, looks like the move actually worked.  Remove did not (tried another thread).
