Why CUK failed last week.

Anyone want to own up? Admin been on the sauce again? NAT overdone the choccy? ContractorUK schmoozing with the hoi polloi and forgotten us? NF not been paid from the last upgrade?

Our beloved admin has moved on! Gone off to be a farmer, like that bloke in Soul of a New Machine

I've just been trying to help, and it seems a database table had been corrupted during a migration. It's only used for temporary cache data, but that was causing errors which prevented other stuff running to completion, hence the peculiar messages. That's been zapped by one of the new sysadmin people so things ought to run no worse than they ever do from now on

There are a few things still broken, such as several threads without an ID meaning they can't be viewed (many of them complaining about the forum being broken), but I'm supposed to be doing work for my main client right now so I won't be able to work out a fix for that until this evening

You mean ex-Admin likes hard work and no sleep.

Sort of. But without the charm and erudition.


Moving threads still doesn't work, nor does multiquote.
