I think the outage was a vBulletin issue. I am a member of a home recording forum, also "powered by vBulletin" that is still down: Recordingreview.com

Not so sure it was. Checked yesterday and it showed OK and does not show an outage for yesterday.

By the way, do you also see short outages maybe every few days?


By the way, the platform the forum is built on is not the greatest, it can't track read/unread posts and forums properly, and links to specific pages get confused in very long threads. phpBB is so much better imo... but probably no chance for migration.

[what I said above is of course not related to yesterday outage, I just needed to rant a bit]

Interesting. A very curious coincidence, maybe. Perhaps the system was working but a server (servers?) were down, but they should have redundant servers/drives to avoid a complete site outage. Maybe a Mustang forum crashed and took out a bunch of others.

I don't feel entitled to anything but I am genuinely curious what caused the site to be down for so long.

I have a forum backup that I use whenever the site is down. I only use it when I'm desperate.

It's called "Actually focus at work".

It goes down every day for a few minutes around 10:30am ET I suspect for some type of backup or maintenance. I've noticed this through observation not through any detailed knowledge of how the site is run.

The outage drove me nuts yesterday. My first reaction was the security dudes here changed something in our corporate firewall that was blocking it. Pissed me off since they work for me. Fortunately I had the good sense not to go ask them!
