Weekend site outage
Posted: Sun Nov 03, 2019 10:52 am
Hi all,
Our site host had a hardware failure Friday night that took down a lot of their shared host sites (including ours). They had a team on it until the early hours of the morning yesterday,
When I checked on the site yesterday morning, our staging site had recovered, but our main site was still down with a data base corruption issue. I had committed to a Tortilla Flats run with Desert Z, so I had to wait until I got home from that to get started with tech support at DreamHost (our site host). They were able to repair the damage to the SQL data base and use the backup to bring us back online.
I will spend some time looking things over this morning, but it appears we are stable and good. Please let me know if you find anything broken, and I will try to attend to it.
