Export thread

It looks like all the posts from the last few hours are gone, and threads I've read being marked unread. What caused the forum reset?

Yes. We should have a thread in General, "Holy Database Revert, Batman!" because it was not a tiny blip...

Thanks for starting this thread. I was going to explain.

What happened was I did a backup of the boards to test the upgrade on our test board. Unfortunately I also had my normal Monday meeting which dragged out to 2.5 hours. When I came back in the middle I hit the next step...which should NOT have been the next step. The next step was to change the database from the LIVE database to the TEST database. I didn't do this part. So when I did the reset it took out the LIVE db.

I reset the DB but it was from BEFORE I went to the meeting.

Next time I won't do this during a Monday just in case.

OHHH SHIII

:aaahhh:

Dave's doing stuff again!

So my post, revealing my horrifying shocking secret that would have haunted me until the end of time is gone forever?


Thank goodness, I had re-considered anyway.

I'm sure it's backed up on some government server. Don't worry.

No, it's probably in my browser cache somewhere.

I'm going to need therapy for decades.

I'll bill you directly.

*headdesk*

Ah well... I'm glad that it was explained... I was sitting here stressing that it was something wrong with my computer... poor thing's been through enough as it is, and was close to getting thrown through my Crown Vic's windshield

Yeah, I messed up. Won't happen again.







Until the next time.
