CGoaB has been down for hours now - anybody know what's happening? I hope he's not down permanently.

I'm guessing that Neil is adjusting the deplincivator.
And that he'll be back up before long.

I was out of town today, got home and found the database had crashed this morning. Several files were corrupted, but have been recovered from backup. I don't believe any data was lost, but I'll keep checking. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Actually, just discovered that some data was missing. So I need to go back and recover data from one of the MySQL replication slaves, rather than repairing the database files in-place (which I thought had worked). I'll need to do a full dump from the slave, then transfer it to the master, then load it up, all of which takes some time, during which the server must be down. Again, sorry for the hassle, I'm doing my best to get everything back online again.

Thanks, Neil. You do a great job. It's funny, I went to your site to read a girl's journal I had been following. When I found the site down I came over here, and -- lo and behold!

I was just there reading a journal, and wondered what happened, too. Just decided to wait a while. I do appreciate having access to such a wealth of information about bicycle touring, thanks for all your work, Neil.

Ok, database has been loaded up again and I have restarted the web server. Should be visible now. Please let me know if you see any weirdness or missing data etc.

Thanks,

Neil

That sir, is why you are not allowed to tour. We expect your nose to be raw from the 1010101 grindstone. CG withdrawal is hell. Thanks.
