Site problems yesterday...

[CK5]

Long story short, about half of LA lost power yesterday and guess where the CK5 server is located?
Anyway, sorry for the outage.

At least it's back now, I had to surf Pirate all last night.

I was having withdrawals.... I think I've turned into a geek

Oh I thought my computer was trippin.
what's weird is that I live about 5 minutes from downtown L.A and wasn't effected by the power outage. anyways glad CK5 is working now.

I was happy when it came back up, but I keep getting the you can't make a multiple post in 30sec error. Heck I was so geeked out last night that I copied my reply to notepad so I wouldn't have to type it again today

it was wierd I could ping it but it had a 50% packet loss. I thought it was my computer trippin but it did it on 3 out of 3 computers. thanks for the update steve. Keep up the good work

 

[sled_dog]

what really bothered me was when it came back and I could read but not reply to a thing. oh well its back now.

Since I was (I think) the last one to post (mug shot post) I'm pretty sure my pic broke the system.

Sorry for the outage, guys.

I thought terrorists had launched one of their most devastating attacks, knocking out CK5. I was getting ready to give somebody an azz whoopin'.

 

[big_truxx]

I did some poking around while it was out of whack. It appeared that the system BIOS lost the date when the server powered down. Best I could tell, the server thought that the date was sometime in 2001. I'm sure that was "breaking" all of the code that uses date and time to compute how to order posts, etc.

 

[CK5]

Harry, that is exactly what happened, came back with the date of Aug 2 2002.
