[ADMIN] Site down for few days

Fri Apr 23, 2010 2:06 pm

Hi all,

I am back in world (internet) after few days, and of course Muphys law is working - what can break, it will. So after couple of months site stop working.

I am now on internet (I am traveling at the moment, I am at small island, where internet connection is really not available), and I got some news.

Our hosting company got some problems with power supply. So I think it is HW issue, we are working hard to solve it (I let know about this to sysadmin, and I hope it will be solved until 24 hours).

I am really sorry for this, I have to set up some ping->sms so I will be informed in these cases sooner, when I am out of computer.

Please stay tuned, it will be online soon.

Thanks for understanding

[UPDATE] Site is back

Sat Apr 24, 2010 7:01 am

Hi subbers,

it seems, site is working again, I will look on it, and I hope it will last at least few years :) But I am completely out of internet from this evening (GMT+7) to next day. So I hope Murphy will forget ... :)

In the moment, I am not sure what exactly happened, still investigating, I'll bring the news, when I'll be back in track.

For now, what I can say, I will have to setup better handling of problems in such a cases - when I am out.

Stay tuned.

Great! Image
We had similar problems few weeks ago.
Good technicians are rare. Unfortunately. :cry:

The only one I could do in such a case, is posting a traffic sign,
that I also use for the announcement of new subtitles on my home-board

and wait for our magician.

I wish him a long long life.

the main web server which also stores all the static files has crashed badly after the mentioned power outage. It had more serious filesystem problems requiring manual intervention (the box didn't even boot into a multi user mode, which led to kernel panic). I have cleaned up the filesystem and hopefully we haven't lost any important data. Besides this, the boxes running mysql had crashed tables, which required repairing too...

Danger, thanks for explanation. Hopefully everything is ok now, I checked DB tables, some of them was corrupted, so they are repaired now.

Omerta: can you confirm everything is working now ? :)

I am really sorry for what happened, we are right now adding next database server, so response time should be much more fast.

The counter from the subtitles does not work.
This started today.
This affects all subtitles of all languages and the last subtitle before that gets a hugh score.
