Server problems
« on: March 11, 2018, 03:03:01 pm »
As you all may have noticed we've been experiencing some down time and errors over the past days.

As always, we're not going anywhere, we're working on fixing the issue.

At this point it's unclear what exactly causes the problem so i'm doing some extensive testing to figure it out.
The availability of tpb forum and chat will be unreliable until further notice.

No solid guarantees yet as we were unable to pin down the exact cause of the instability, but refreshing our server seems to have resolved the problems.

One disk is probably going to fail sometime soon but it is only used to store pictures and videos on in our chat, this won't have consequences for the forum or chat connectivity.

I think it's safe to say the issue has been resolved.

However, i think i should mention that it's likely that several posts have vanished during the crashes and maintenance as a result of corrupted database entries or cache not being written to storage yet when the server crashed.

I noticed people complain about missing posts, so i thought i would mention this.
