board down intermittently 20/4/04

[ron1n]

The MYSQL db is returning a 1030 error, same as last time. Its a disk space problem again I'm afraid chaps.

Ricer.

would love to help but I have no idea what that means.

I'm assuming its tech talk for "the magic box is buggered again"

It's soooo unfair, I havent been on vx220.org all day so I could pretend to do some work and was going to reward myself with some car geekyness.

Somebody fix it!!!!

They found the problem.

Technically it is know as 'ed'

Personally I'm a little bit stumped as to why it's been down for so long.
The error code indicates that the machine running the database has run out of disk space. If the database server is run by a third party, they should a. not have let it run out of space, and b. fixed it by now. If it is run by the syndicate of sites on our server (VX220.org.uk, bm3w etc) then I would have thought whoever is responsible for the server would have sorted out some space by now.
If this goes on any longer, I might actually get some work done

Sadly, I can't access the Yahoo site. If there's any news, can somebody post it here?

Thanks.

If you access the VX board via your Internet History, straight into a thread, then it works.

The only problem is, not many people know this, and therefore, there isn't much going on.

It's starting to get silly now though.

Maybe we want to make this place a semi-permanent home?

Looks like www.vx220.org.uk is up and running again.
