Server outage September 13th

[Munkholm]

Hi all.

As you may have noticed, the form have been down for a few hours.

Still not clear why, but we believe the automated backups was causing it... On top of that, GG´s mailserver and their RRS feeds was down too, so it turned out that they had not recieved my SOS emails :banghead:

Anyway, we´re back up and running, and will be looking into the cause ASAP.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

I emailed Martijn about it earlier. We concluded it was Alex' fault. :thumbsup:

It just happened because today is another unlucky 13th.

Can you recover my 3,000 word reply?

[Munkholm]

Yes, this forum creates a autosave of everything you type every 60 seconds... so just go back to what ever you were writing on

On a more serious note:

It turned out to be a Memory Leak, which we still don´t know what caused, but at least it seems like GG have it under control now... Will keep you updated when I know the cause, and can take measures to prevent it from happening again.

Well Revit has had memory leaks in the past, maybe it is influencing the servers?
