Anyone know when it will be back online?

 

[Ross]

I spoke to Brian on twitter a few days ago, he was told its be down for a few days. It's been a lot longer than that hasnt it?

A database backup, and server move should take no longer than a couple of hours, so I've no idea what they are doing

Exactly what I was thinking - unless they have hit a snag?....Hope it will be back up soon

 

[Ross]

Only snag really is if the database is screwed, if they didn't back it up properly, that can cause issues.
I make sure the RefChat database is backed up twice daily, so if the brown stuff hits the fan, little disruption is caused.

well i wouldn't have thought that they would have made a basic error of backing up the DB so I guess it is a waiting game!

 

[Ross]

You say that, I know plenty of webmasters that have made the same mistake
