Yup, on it.

Sorry for the language.

Alright, who pushed Spoony over the edge?

 

[hong]

It's back!

I was asleep so don't blame me. Or rather blame me for running the repair query that got it back online.

The user table had locked up. Why? I dunno - Hard to say since the server is running an older version of MySQL.

Psst ... it was a joke, Spoony.

Thanks for getting it back up.

Really? That's weird.... it came online immediately after *I* ran a repair query.

Maybe we both did it simultaneously? Or it went down after you did it, and then I did it again.

[Edit - looking at the timing, it looks like it must have gone down again since you ran the query.]
