Another Network Outage ... Argh ...

I spent the whole day dealing with servers. The facility where Wopular and MoviesWithButter are hosted were having some network issues. I was able to get MWB up and running within an hour or so. Wopular was a whole different story. The Database is about 21GB. It's a huge db, so whenever there's a network issue, I can always count on at least one corrupt table. And it always happens to be the largest table, which takes several hours to diagnose and repair.

 

Blast from the Past

You may have noticed that Wopular was down for most of Friday. The database crashed and one of the tables was corrupted. It just so happened that it was the most important one. It stored all of the headlines and teasers. Yeah, why did it had to be that table. I tried repairing it, which usually was't too bad, except this time, it was.
