RE: Other Forum Issues - timio - 10-22-2014
I've seen in a few places that a post doesn't appear, usually it seems to happen when there's nested replies (Quote within a quote). Latest example that I've seen is in the ION Thread, a post by ViewFromThe42 only shows the quotes and not the response (Post #67). I know this was happening earlier to others, but thought I'd mention it again.

So, do the posters of those posts see their text in their reply? It's so strange.
RE: Other Forum Issues - Viewfromthe42 - 10-23-2014
I checked my response, both as posted and when clicking edit, and my comment was indeed lost.

FWIW I was getting this a few minutes ago while trying to navigate the forum:
Quote:MyBB SQL Error
MyBB has experienced an internal SQL error and cannot continue.
SQL Error: 1040 - Too many connections
Query: [READ] Unable to connect to MySQL server
Please contact the MyBB Group for technical support.

Were you getting it trying to view one specific thing, or everything? Anyone else? I just got home so obviously I missed all the fun.
RE: Other Forum Issues - BuildingScout - 10-30-2014
Got the same error while asking for new posts as well as just the home page.
RE: Other Forum Issues - Spokes - 10-31-2014
Well I apologize for the downtime. I'll look into it.
RE: Other Forum Issues - ookpik - 10-31-2014
I was clicking on a bookmark to www.waterlooregionconnected.com/search.php?action=getnew but the messages suggest the problem was more general, either the server was overloaded ("SQL Error: 1040 - Too many connections") or a communications error ("Query: [READ] Unable to connect to MySQL server.")
P.S. There's no need to apologize for the downtime. I appreciate all that you do for us. I just thought this needed to be reported in case it recurs or affects others.

Seems to be a time issue on the server. I've turned off DST adjustment and it still seems to think it's an hour ahead of what it actually is.
RE: Other Forum Issues - Spokes - 11-06-2014
Fixed. It's set to automatically detect daylight savings time, but I'm not sure it does. Might mean a manual change has to happen twice a year.
RE: Other Forum Issues - ookpik - 11-06-2014
FWIW the newly released phpBB 3.1 now does DST changes automagically. Lobby myBB to do likewise.

I think a bunch of accounts have been hacked; there are posts in either a foreign language or gibberish all over.
RE: Other Forum Issues - Spokes - 11-10-2014
There were a number of spam posts, is that what you were talking about?
RE: Other Forum Issues - DHLawrence - 11-10-2014
Could be, but I think a couple of existing members posted in the threads as well, unless they were responding.

If you mean earlier this evening, one new "member" apparently from Poland made about half a dozen spam posts in Polish. I responded as politely as I could under the circumstances. Pardon my FrenchPolish.
