Classifieds Problem Today

webmaster · 06-29-2004, 09:27 AM

I had a problem with the server last night that has corrupted the Classifieds database.

I am working on restoring it but it may take until tonight.

Thanks for your patience.

Don,

Sorry that you are having the problem and hope it is an easy fix. I know that systems can be tempermental though.

You do a great job and it is really appreciated by everyone.

I have repaired the Classifieds database but many ads placed in the last week were lost.

If you placed an ad but can't find it please resubmit it.

In a stroke of bad luck a server problem corrupted the database just minutes before the daily backup of the file. This meant that the only current backup I had was also corrupted. The only option I had was to merge the ads in a backup from last week with the ads placed today. As a result several days of ads could not be recovered.

Please accept my apologies if your ad was lost.
