kinda pissed
 
I just did the Tremors page last night and when I woke up today...it's all gone. The hell happened?

Fuck! We lost the last 5 days worth of edits. My page for "The Devil's Own" is gone, too (and I don't have a backup in Word, unlike most of my pages).

I'm at work right now, but I will speak to Bunni about this and see if our backups can restore anything.

Unable to upload photos is another problem at this time.:(

I contacted Bunni. We'll see what's going on, and if there are backups available.

Sorry, guys. This annoys me, too. Not only did I lose all my work on "The Devil's Own", but my "Far Cry" page is gone, too (although that one had no screencaps yet).

Well I am glad i wasn't doing a bigger project or multiple projects. I was planning on doing 3 of the Tremors movies but the second one was done already and i dont have the 4th or the TV series and really these were old campy movies so i wasnt that pissed off, but still I spent an hour rewatching these movies to cap them.

I lost The Outlaw Josey Wales, In the Line of Fire, and Absolute Power, so I'm furious. I was so happy I got so much done this week and its all gone again.

Oh, and I lost the Dead Pool. I'll probably do these again eventually but there is no way I'm jumping right back into it, I'm too pissed right now.

Guys, DON'T DO ANY MORE UPDATES!!!!! When Bunni restores the archival page, he will have to do it from the time just before the server outage. That means you'll lose whatever changes you make now. Wait until Bunni can restore the system.

Only when we have affirmation that he cannot restore what was lost (unlikely), then consider making any changes now.

I lost VIP, Barb Wire and a few other movie pages, so everyone has lost something.

We're on top of it - I have the admin team looking at it. We transferred to a new server last night which should make the site much faster but they seem to have used an old backup or the restore failed mid-way through. We have multiple nightly backups stored on and off site so we haven't lost anything. We're working on it! Thanks for the understanding guys.

Best,
Chris

Text edits have been restored - now working on syncing the image files.

Best,
Chris

MT2008 04-10-2009 10:49 PM

That's great news, Chris! Thanks!

bunni 04-10-2009 11:02 PM

Image files synched - we're back up and running to where we were as of this morning 3:30am or so. We lost a dozen or so edits from the last 12 hours.

Thanks for hanging tough guys - we certainly learned our lessons from the horrific crash of last year - and the backups are now frequent.

Best,
Chris

I'm not looking forward to redoing pages, as I'm sure evryone else isn't. It's fun the first time but it loses its touch the second.

Makes me wish I didn't do so much this week.

Thanks for working hard to fix the problem Chris, hope everything still works right.

Gunmaster45 04-10-2009 11:22 PM

Cool, Absolute Power is back!

How much more can we expect to return?

Clutch 04-10-2009 11:28 PM

Hey, you all might want to hit up the history pages of whatever you lost - some of it may still be there, waiting...

everything.

Gunmaster45 04-10-2009 11:40 PM

Yeah, I just figured out if you go to edit on a dead page, everything restores. I'm so happy right now, sorry if I over reacted. It's back to school next week and everything I did getting wiped made it seem like my week was a waste.

Yeah, I didn't do much this spring break. But I certainly enjoyed it.

Gunmaster45 04-10-2009 11:48 PM

Okay, if everything is fine now, I'll upload Hang 'Em High tonight.
