330740 2005-03-05 01:35:00 it has nothing to do with his own comp!!! lol unless its his forum/other site format which dpeends on a db(database) thats the mysql saying that the db either aint there or is screwed lol Codex (3761)
330741 2005-03-05 09:09:00 Yeap, it is a site that I visit. I don't have anything to do with it. Just currious why I get this message sometimes. It said db is erred, just wondering is it my end, the web surfer, or at their end, the website. Thanks lightfoot (39)
330742 2005-03-05 09:13:00 Why it is then, if their db is kaput, sometime only and very short, lasted for about 4 hours, sometimes waited only a few minutes before it is ok again. This leads me to think may be it is at my end, the normal web surfer. Thanks lightfoot (39)
330743 2005-03-05 09:19:00 Because someone works out it's down and the tech gets paged who restarts the DB service. Sometimes he might be doing it as you hit the site, sometimes he might take a few hours to crawl out of a bar and do it. ninja (1671)
330744 2005-03-07 02:37:00 its not a service, the other forums im with get hacked heaps and the db gets deleted but it takes a few hours to restore fully, it isnt a service Codex (3761)
