Out of interest, what is the extent of the Ausmini database? Given the number of times we've had major data loss in the past few years it might be worth setting up an INSERT/UPDATE-only replicant on another host somewhere, so we have something to fall back to (and good insurance against possible malicious DELETEs...)


I'm sure there could be something set up using a cheap offshore host.

Still over my head though.

Yell out if you end up thinking along these lines and want a hand, I've been living & breathing this stuff for the last 10 years ;)

10 years - nasty... I don't know how you haven't jumped off a very high place, with lots of sharp rocks at the bottom

That's why I thought it might have been a MySQL fubar. If the tables are using the MyISAM engine then it's easy for data to evaporate like this.. it's data security is shocking. If it's InnoDB then it's much less likely that MySQL has farted, especially if the schema is defined with foreign keys.

I couldn't count the number of times I've had corruption and data loss in MyISAM tables.. I won't use anything but Inno in MySQL these days.


what a piece of sh!t.... maybe we've lost posts from other forums as well, there are 21000 odd missing from mini chat

21815 topics reanimated.... AND I shut down the database engine on the webserver TWICE, which apparently killed all of the websites that are sharing our server - just a couple of nested subqueries and the whole thing goes belly up. The web host said if I did it again they'd suspend our account until Tuesday :oops:

feel free to search our your old topics and let me know if any of them don't seem right

anyone remember what the stickies/announcements were? they'll be buried in with the rest of the topics somewhere and just need their status changed

I was just going to ask if this problem is any closer to having a solution or is it not going to be worried about now. :?:

Sometimes, if you look at the address under the item in a Google search, it'll have 'Cached' written in a light cyan/blue after it. It doesn't always work, but you might have the odd win.

That said, if you search for something reasonably specifically, then select the item... It seems to come up now. :) I'm guessing that's the good work of the Simons and Poeee.
