[ed]

Speaking of which, got a cad file for me?

Doubt itll be load from another site... the time it happens is just too precise and relativley short lived.
Has to be a greedy cron job or similar.

It's not a greedy cron job, it's greedy ..err.. "entities".

Was low on disc space on one particular partition. I hope I've finally cleared up enough space so it doesn't keep falling over.

In the last hit one of the databases became corrupt hence the weirdness with posts. Everything should come back to normal over time.

Mos.

PS. Sad to see users still trying to hammer a resource while it's down.. *sigh*

Err, this reminds me of something I live by at work.

"Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning."

[Mos]

I was thinking more along the lines of: "race between software engineers writing absolute crap to exceed the available resources, and hardware engineers producing bigger and faster hardware to ensure a resource surplus"

[Kyosho]

I'm with MOS, most software eng's doesn't seem to mind chewing up resources, even if they can code more efficiently...

And for some reason this thread has finally showed ALL posts to me (Was only showing 2 pages before my previous post, even though it's on the 4th!)
Must have been when the DB got corrupted.

GW boys on sorting stuff out.

Now, do you want to come and finish setting up Samba 3 for me at work with user shares, but allowing an annonymous guest connection too?

[RObErT_RaTh]

Just feel I have to add that I've also noticed the site not responding sometimes at night, I always contact a mate and get him to check too before I go calling my ISP

[Howieau]

Yeh i had the same a couple nights ago lateish

[ONCE-NA]

Whats the go? Is Toymods hosted from Rods computer and every night he hogs the bandwidth during an internet porn marathon?

[MotivatedSeller]

Yeah same deal here. The other night I clicked on post quick reply... the page was suspended for about 15seconds... then when it finally refreshed it posted up 6 copies of the post. (could've been my ISP though...)

I'm sure they'll fix it soon enough. = )

[Mos]

I hope you guys don't think you're actually being helpful by saying things like "the other night" or "sometimes"

There shouldn't be any connectivity issues now - there really isn't any way of knowing if you're just having a whinge so unless you have some concrete times and symptoms please don't complicate matters.

Mos.

[Andrew162]

don't know if it's me or my router (hopefully the latter), but occasionally Toymods takes a little while to look up the page before it starts reading it. this has only happened recently for me, post server-brainfart. no one else might notice it, so who knows.

[5000gt]

well, it's back.... i havent been able to get on since late last night..... it's been nearly 12 hrs...

[sillycar chick]

Yes I was on last night at 9.45pm or thereabouts and it was working, but this morning I tried around 7.30am, couldnt get on, went to work, and have only just managed to get on 10 minutes ago after trying all morning

[fatboy13]

i was on at about 8am today and then lost it from 9am until just now...
