Welcome to the bunker. This site is here until the normal site is back up or moved.
So it seems our hoster is having some serious issues. I can not get any details to what is going on. But I can confirm that I got an email a few days ago from them asking me to make a backup, and wait for further details (vague I know). Other customers I know have received the same email.
What's next? Well I have enough donations left to buy a few months of hosting over at Hostedrapidly (yes, the same hoster as TC is on now).
I wish reWired would give me some details to what the hell is going on rather than keeping us in the dark. If nothing has been cleared up by tonight I will purchase hosting from Hostedrapidly.

Sim, don't use hosted rapidly. They're really under with chans. Look at how much TC got suspended.

Thats because they pay per month and do it too late? But any host that allows chans and isn't afraid of fake DMCA and abuse is welcome. Open for suggestions. If we have to move that is. I still have no idea what's going on.

Did you just give up on it?

Oh lawd is that sum prq? Just switch here for a while: http://www.3ix.org
PRQ is expensive and pointless since you refuse to host loli or warez.

Out of curiosity, did we lose all the old posts and stuff or is there a backup?

I would think Sim would take their advice

Over 300.000 posts in the backup. A few days of posts missing since last backup.

If it was me and I had a site with *active* content, I would be making hourly updates to the backup as long as I was able.

Where will you store those hourly ~50MB bzip2'd archives?

Updating the backup, meaning a new copy of the database and only downloading new images. And I'd put the database in a .tar.lzma archive, since 99% of the content between them would be identical. For that matter, there's not a whole lot of reason to keep any more than the 2 most recent db backups as far as I can see.

@556 (sim !!771og5ZBz)
I'm not entirely sure what would go wrong that I would need to roll back the database like that? Either way, you still can store all the db files in the lzma archive without using much extra space, if you feel like it.

It is doable if you have a vps or some kind of shell and or crontab. A host wont like it though.

Hourly backups? I mean backing up locally to HD. Obviously it would take quite some time to back up the images, but it's the only way to be sure something is backed up. I kind of assumed people did local backups when you get an email like that. O_o

If anyone wants to retrieve a post, I have copies of everything until the moment it went down.

I mean off site ofcourse. There are backups on rewired but they are useless now.

Can I not log into my account because this is a temp site or have you lost them?

It is a fresh install. I can not retrieve the data as of now. Maybe later. And I don't fancy uploading 200MB of database on this line.

Please do at some point. I'm very OCD about my post count.

I'm still debating that if we have to move (and that is not certain) we will start with a fresh board. If that would happen I will put the old site back up as a read-only archive.

They are bringing the server back they say, so we'll see. IF we can get the db from it before it went down we will only miss the posts on this board.

I'd say do what we did before. Merge the old data back in, so the statistics and UIDs can be restored.

It all depends on what we can restore and where we go.
