Forum/TS downtime this midnight (21 jan)

[Lex]

Tonight between 00:00 and 02:00 dutch time the web and teamspeak server might be offline.

We are upgrading our storage servers and virtualization platform and the machines running on it will be down for a short time in that period.

Hope i can keep it to a minimal. If there are still problems with TS (after 02:00) or something poke me on skype or post here.

Nice one!

Reported posts tab on the Moderators control panel now seems to work again.
Hopefully the kitchen spambots will be blocked now too.

Did you run the php DB update script? Not expecting there to be any DB structure changes but it automatically runs a DB repair job too. I was thinking we should try a repair on the database to see if we could correct the strange issue of replies to posts ending up in the wrong thread. Although my current thinking is it might be a case the forum templates people are using are out of date and we should look at replacing/updating them.

I ran the updater-tool yes, made a backup first tho, but it worked fine. The updater ran trough the database but i guess it just updated the neccesary tables and added new stuff (or removed old ofc). Might be that one of those tables was broken and is now magically fixed again. In any way its fine by me

You are correct about the templates, i`ll look into that soonish when i have another 7 minutes to spare

Grr reports not working again.

[Lex]

It did work right?

[Firejack]

It did. The first time I tried it after you updated the forums. Now when you go to mcp.php?i=136 and click on the link for Blitz's sticky request. You just get a blank page.
