Hi Ilia,
My 28-month-old forum has worked perfectly the whole time until yesterday. Suddenly it's only offering a blank page.
Apache's running. MySQL is running. I can query the forum database over ssh, and Serendipity - which uses the same db server on the same site - is running normally. But take a look at this:
[root@e82-103-131-114s messages]# ls -o
total 141444

Two questions here. Firstly, it looks as if practically all the recent messages were written to the same, very large file, msg_80000. Secondly, the permissions aren't the same across all message files and I've no idea why.
I suspect the size of the file is causing the problem - it's so big it could conceivably cause a timeout - and would appreciate tips on fixing that. Also, is there anything I can do to limit the message file size in future, or is this a known/fixed problem with older forums? (I'm about to move to a new server and will upgrade FUDforum then).
If it isn't the filesize that's at fault, any clue would be good right now..
Thanks,
- Steph
