Testing....

1,2,3.... __________________ is it just me or did you guys just restart the whole board?? __________________ wooohoo, no star wars names (sorry leon, i couldn't stand them) although i must say i would rather have an "Administrator" there instead (god knows I spend enough time here to be considered an admin) [Edited by hapoo on 09-04-2000 at 12:31 AM] __________________ Yeah, we had to restart it because the DB somehow got corrupt. VERY corrupt. This is a brand new install, so I still have to implement the new smilies, stars hack, avatar hack, etc... __________________ hmm, i think you should install the hacks one by one. make sure that they dont cause more problems. __________________ Quote: Originally posted by hapoo hmm, i think you should install the hacks one by one. make sure that they dont cause more problems. Good idea... but we took it one step further. All hacks will be performed on a separate "play" forum. That way nothing on this one gets jacked over. The strange thing is I applied the hacks and they were working fine. Then the board went live. I still don't understand what happened. __________________ i know what you mean, i've had mysql do the same type of stuff. lemme know if i can help in any way __________________ Quote: Originally posted by hapoo i know what you mean, i've had mysql do the same type of stuff. lemme know if i can help in any way Hahahaaha... Where were you 3 hours ago? Just kidding... It looks to be good for now. As long as I be VERY careful with the hacks now. I'll be in contact with you if I mess up the hacks again. LOL. __________________ Hey hapoo, I kinda liked the star wars names. Except, if Jedi night was around 1300 or whatever. . . what would you be at 5,000 posts? Or 10,000? __________________ I had set 5,000 posts to "Yoda" and I had a Yoda icon already. *sigh* Oh well... __________________ sorry guys, hey thats just my opinion doesn't mean that leon won't put the hack on again. I never really got into the whole star wars thing, so many people at my school were into it (and obsessed i should add) that i just became sick of it and never gave it a shot, I only saw the first move once in the theater when they re-released it, besides that i'm into almost all the other nerdy-computer shows. ohh I also loved the matrix but again people killed it. who else is sick of seeing every single f*cking person (and they're usually newbie's) use NEO as a nick. __________________ Quote: Originally posted by Leon Quote: Originally posted by hapoo i know what you mean, i've had mysql do the same type of stuff. lemme know if i can help in any way Hahahaaha...

LOL. i couldn't even get on the page heheh unfortunately when mine got messed up i never figured out what was wrong with it, I too just reinstalled it and it worked fine. __________________ CR#P I didn't make copies of some of those really long postings[didn't know there was going to be such an upgrade. anychance someone who saved locally could send in their copies? :0) __________________ Leon, I trust that this being a profesionally run website there were backup of the DB. Am I in error? Will I have to suffer the indignities of seeing my posting hacked to incoherant fragments? or does off-topic not matter? Are you insinuating via your 'hacks' that my presence is neither appreciated nor supported? Or should I leave Got|Apex to the megalomaniacal rantings of software giants who just want to be loved? Hope to see a response soon ;0| __________________ Renots, EVERYONE's posts from yesterday were lost, so you shouldn't take it personally. Yesterday's posts are gone. While it's regretable that you lost your posts, there is nothing I can do about that. I apologise. __________________ Renots I always use notepad to type up a response and save what I'm typing every now and then. It especially helps when IE crashes. And sometimes you want to recycle a prior post since its so good. __________________ ...it the truncated posts from way before yesterday that shiver my liver ;0| __________________ Ok lets see here, if you can show me some examples of your posts gone wrong I can check it all out. So far, I think this forum is pretty pristine, not a single problem at all (right? Anyways, we have the trained monkeys on a morphine drip and they have been checking the forums 24/7 looking for errors. SO, if you wanna help em along, post all your problems here. Oh and dont say "This hack isnt in here" because we know that __________________ sad part is, i was actually waiting for them to put it back up and fix it. i was on till 230am this morning. Lucky Me! BTW, someone please help, i'm going through DODS (Deprivation of Deals Syndrome)! __________________ Quote: Originally posted by TheCorp Ok lets see here, if you can show me some examples of your posts gone wrong I can check it all out.

Oh and dont say "This hack isnt in here" because we know that hmmm, i just got on to see if everything was still working and when i clicked on the off topics forum it told me something about not being able to access a script and that the error was on line 31. i thought it might be that someone else was also accessing it at the same time and it had locked me out but it happened several more times.

That means that gotapex.com's new host has limited the amount of mysql connections to the forums database. In other words = either get the host to fix it or upgrade your plan. It's not even peak time either! __________________ Oh, and by the way. The email link to gotapex.com's Technical Staff goes nowhere. Which usually means the email was never "dispatched." You might want to give the forums an email so that way you know when we're having problems like this. __________________ What does it mean that VB code is on? OOOOOOOH this sounds interesting! Bubba __________________ I am getting this error every time I load a page and then I reload and it is fine: Warning: Too many connections in admin/db_mysql.php on line 31 ? Does this help?

Now to be sure you know that the RealGN server is in no need of an upgrade soon, let me give you some stats. Mobo : Supermico P2BDE - Dual Slot 1 CPUs : 2 PIII 600s with 512k of on chip cache Ram : 512 Megs of PC 133 ram HardDrive : 9.1 Gig UltraWide Scsi2 Connection : Direct 100 megabit port to Level3's OC-12 and OC-6 of full optical fibre goodness SO, in saying, I think we are doing ok in the hardware and connection department, and during all the problems, I was checking MySQL and the server itself, and the load on both was VERY minimal (Load was 1.34ish, and MySQL wasn't maxed out, and had maybe a constant 50ish connections). Hope this convinces people as to our adequite equipment... BTW Renots, could you point me to some of your screwed posts, like just a direct link to the thread will do... __________________ Hey Renots, as much as I love reading your posts. Take it easy man, instead of bitching about having your posts jacked up just like a bunch of other posts I've seen, just post some more . Just chill out man.
