Site Restore ?

I'm missing (my) posts in the Leica and Fuji forum.
A time travel to the past or a recent site restore ?

:unsure:

There site was having issues and while it wasn't the cause of the issues we ended up with a corruption in the database which using the standard repair command it wouldn't fix so we had to roll back as it was preventing some data that needs to be written to the database for the forum to work to be entered.

The backup was from the 16th so at most we lost a days of posts. I was going to post about it but when I fixed the actual cause of the issue and then restored the database it was 3am and I fell asleep while waiting for a log scan to run to see if I could identify what caused the issue in the first place

Thanks a lot, I saw some AWS related errors with failure to connect earlier today.

I was updating the Operating system so those were down to services restarting as they were being upgraded (There was also so cloud flare errors when the Webserver software was restarting)

No we are on the same server we have always been. The loading speed issue and the error message problem seems to have been fixed. Certainly I haven't seen it for nearly a week

The site is loading very slowly today for me and does so frequently.

No issues here (Amsterdam NLD), I'd say the site is almost 'lightning-fast'.

very fast here - the site is delivered probably via various servers globally, depending on where you are you ge re-routed on the Amazon network - what's your region?

Perhaps helpful to all if we mention date and time (and timezone) in this thread, when we experience slow and/or good response times.

That would allow the site admin to suggest you check your local ISP's service if they don't see an issue with this site but If that were the issue you'd be experiencing poor performance with all web sites.

The AWS Network allows you to review world wide performance and it's historical performance all at once.
