Title: Database log corruption
Post by: Fury on September 08, 2009, 01:38:36 am

We encountered a database log corruption which effectively corrupted certain type of database tables. Fortunately most databases did not use these tables, only HLP forums and wiki as far as I am aware. Unfortunately both had to be restored from a backup because repairing didn't work. Unfortunately this means around two days worth of posts have been lost. Cause for log corruption will be investigated.

I suspect the revert was to a HLP "saved" two days earlier.

If you got the PM within the last two days, then probably the PMs are gone as well.

I was wondering what would happen if you made a post, that was archived, but you edited it after it the archiving.

Then it would be as it was before it was edited.
