Downtime Saturday 18th April

[BKF Admin]

Sorry for the downtime today,everything should now be fixed.
We do a backup every night around 3am just incase a repair cannot be done,that way we will only lose a couple of posts if any.

On this occasion it was better to fix the database rather than call on a backup.
time consuming but no loss of new members and new posts.
Keep safe everyone and best wishes to your friends and family especially your bees and pets.

Sorry for the downtime today,

It's so easy to get used to the forum just "being there" that we can forget you have to work behind the scenes to make it all work without a hitch.

Well done Mark!

Many thanks. Although you are normally almost invisible except for sorting incidents like this, you are still greatly appreciated.

Thank you for fixing the problem Admin. Just before the system went down l noticed a new post headed "aimless bees" that l was interested in but then got the message about the database having a problem. Now the "aimless bees" post is no longer there. Is it possible to re-instate it?

Thank you for all your work. It's a useful forum and easily taken for granted because it is run so smoothly.

They say running a forum is a thankless task, well there are plenty of thanks about it seems! And one more from me.
