| Sadly nothing was found, but the server suffered another hardware lockup before it was checked.
If this keeps happening we might have to migrate to another server

| Does this explain why amigaworld.net has been down for everyone including me? I only found out I missed the weekend outage. But the frozen server could explain why it's been going down. |

| Yeah there was a long downtime. The server crashed and then they went through with a 6 hour hardware check which passed.
I've enabled some kernel crash debugging, should help to isolate this hopefully.

| Heaven knows. It is so rough when you cannot be AT the hardware.
Then .. when you get access to it .. it is in a damn refrigerated environment. You cannot get to the power plug. For me .. **some one with a cable organization fetish made it IMPOSSIBLE** to know which power plug went with .. with THE THING with very small led where it took a flash light to see what "icon" was associated with it and ... how are you going to seek what such an icon means with no words? It is a secure facility, so no camera capable equipment is allowed in most places ... the server room being one of them.
4 blanking hours to come up with a simple, sequential order follow (with the *hard* learned time you MUST patiently wait) between a step (thank God not many such steps) Rant ... rant.
My heart is with you. Tell me your favorite charity and I will give some to it. I /really/ do not facing that sort of situation with precious little informed thanks. TOTALLY not what my job I'm being paid to do. I will GLADLY give some to it.

| Yeah it's certainly been interesting, I don't have all day to work on this either obviously so I've had to do this in multiple rounds of a few hours a day.
As far as I'm concerned it's all part of the community effort, there are still people who prefer and use this site and we're working on a way to build something towards the future, the site design is old, it's difficult or near impossible to maintain or work on, and I'd really like to move to something more modern in terms of a server as well.
Hopefully we'll have some news of that effort soon.

Thank you so much for the hard work you put into this. Maintaining web servers for a lot of years now, I can feel the pain to fix something like that and keep everything up and running.
