New Forum Hosting

[AB]

Inhale and exhale....lol

I'm pretty sure we are ok now everyone.

We are now on the server and only lost an hour or so of data.

They did a back up of the forum last night and an hour ago they changed the forum over to their side but used the back up of last night so we lost a heap of data. Pretty stupid really!!!

Anyways, we still had the old database on the other server which I have used but we lost the last hour or so of posts which is minimal.

Any new members who signed up or posted anything will have to start again, apologies for that but touch wood.....This should now be all 100% reliable, fast and no problems....Famous last words I know!!!

Good Job AB

[AB]

I need a holiday...lol...That was painfully stressful!

We got off lightly me thinks!!

[AB]

My god, the dramas continue...lol

The guy has had trouble trying to copy it all across so we may still loose more data from lunchtime today.

This is 100% happening in the next hour but the problem will be that some people will be stuck on the old forum and some people will be on the new one until I get home tonight and delete the old forum.

So....I guess dont post any important things for the next hour or two until I get a phone call from the provider to confirm its all done and then I will delete the old database so we are all on the new forum...

TIME FOR A BEER I THINK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what the f!!ck happened, I just lost 8000 odd post in the last hour!!!!! All good quality informative information!!!!, can you just credit my post count x 8000 please Andy *LMAO*

Good work mate, we all know computers don't know anything intelligent, so if we loose a few we loose a few, all worthwhile in my opinion. Just don't forget 2 fix my lost post up *L*

P.s: I will not notice any super fast speeds as i am on wireless......If anyone thinks of going wireless DON'T DO IT, ITS CR!P!!!!!

[Bob]

Thanks Andy we are back

[AB]

Ok, the forum is back up and running everyone after this disaster!!!
Only some of the data uploaded yesterday and I had to shut it down otherwise we would have different data all over the place.
We are ok to go now and apologies for the delay, I have gone to hell and back...lol
It looks like we have only lost data from last night but I did shut the forum down from 9pm so maybe only 3 hours.
If anyone finds any missing data then please let me know.
Thanks for being patient and hopefully now we will have trouble free and fast forum!!!

ATTENTION NEW MEMBERS!!!
If you signed up to the forum yesterday and now can't log back on your account may have been deleted so please sign up again.
