thinBasic server crash

[ErosOlmi]

The previous system shutdown at 10.51.17 on 06/10/2010 was unexpected.

Today there was a web server unexpected shutdown.

It seems that one table handling forum attachments in MySql database get corrupted in some parts.
I'm trying to recover the situation. In the meantime you can get a DB error while reading/uploading files to forum.
This also effects uploaded avatars for those users that personalized their avatar.

I will post further notes ...

Good luck in recovering the database. I hope it is not the unwanted fix for the attacvhment problem you face, when testing the port to VBulletin,

No Michael, nothing related to my try to migrate because I was not recently trying migrate.
It is just a server crash in a bad moment (open files, open DB tables not correctly closed, ....)

Attachments table is recovered and working fine now.
Attachments in posts seem OK apart preview of attached images and personalized avatars.
Trying to understand the reasons but I think it is related to attaches crypted names, maybe a PHP lib is not working as expected.

I will check more during weekend.

I didn't mean that this was related to your tests. I ment that if you were not able to recover the attachments, then you would not have to wait for a fix on the migration functionality to VBulletin. :)

I am glad you were able to fix the problem. Good job.
