I was on here at 9pm last night, clicked a new post to read it and got a white screen with an error message along the lines of :
"PHPBB2 error : cannot connect to DB"
The main Diff'rent Strokers site was working but this forum was dead. I was a bit worried that we'd lost everything but I tried it again an hour later and it was fine.
Dunno what that was about, maybe our server was being backed up or something. It was out of my control anyway. Anyway, if it happens to you, don't worry, just try again later.
Incidentally, I do take a backup myself once every couple of weeks (I'll do it more often when it gets more popular ) but I'd have no idea how to restore it if I had to... |
