View Full Version : Major Server Woes: Sorry for the Down Time!

We're now back from some of the worst down-time I can remember us having. Long story short, our main Web/database server ran out of hard drive space, and my own attempts to correct what I thought was a different problem may have resulted in database corruption - and it was all down-hill from there. Thankfully, Jorj (http://www.dejavusoftware.com/index.html) came to our rescue and managed to get everything working again. Things should be back to normal now, other than my blood pressure that is (I didn't think things could get any worse (http://www.jasondunn.com/more-technology-dysfunction-100)). If you see any strange things going on, please let us know. Otherwise, back to our normally scheduled programming of gadget goodness! ;-)

Weird... You, avsforum.com, and head-fi.org all blew up at the same time today. [queue Twilight Zone music]

Glad to hear that everything is under control again. I kind of liked the time off today. I got a little more time to kick back before settling down to post news.

Time to queue up the big announcement for tomorrow morning. 8)

That was really great last year - but I'm still tired from it. I haven't ruled out doing something like that again, but I'm just not up to it right now. It was a lot of work to get all those prizes lined up and doing the weekly contest posts and draws. Whew!

However, there is something to win with this announcement, so don't give up hope. ;) Read about it for yourself --> http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/index.php?action=expand,13261
