Hi,

I have just had exactly the same problem.

Forums went down about an hour ago.

In the last few minutes they have come back up but as of yet I do not have a reason for all of this.

It would appear that it may not be related to our hosting as we both have the issue.

Twiglet,

Your problem is probably not related to dellow's. Your message indicates that the mysql server went down for some reason. The fact your boards came back on-line after an hour support this theory. Are you on a shared mysql server?

As for dellow's issue, that does seem a little more serious! If you are sure your database is no longer there then there is not much you can do except recover from a backup.

FF,

Thanks for your advice. As far as I am aware we are on a shared server.

Hopefully, our hosting co. will be gracious enough to inform us as to what the problem was.

Tim.
