Title: Cannot connect to Database
Post by: catterz on May 10, 2007, 01:07:56 PM
Having problems connecting to my database on mysql5.freepgs.com

It's been working fine for the last few weeks now it's suddenly gone down. Any news on the situation? Or where do I go to find general downtime announcements?

It seems to have cleared up now.

There were errors on one of the drives in the MySQL5 server.  The drive was completely removed and reinserted.  If the problem occurs again, the drive will be replaced.  [We then forced a reload of the entire machine to be sure the failure did not show up again]

(The server uses RAID, so no data will be lost.)

Thank you,
