Sorry if there are already threads about this, I can't really find them using the search bar (for obvious reasons). Title: Re: An Error Has Occurred - Searching has been temporarily disabled. Post by: sorryforthat on January 30, 2015, 01:09:12 PM Anyone else getting this? Sorry if there are already threads about this, I can't really find them using the search bar (for obvious reasons). This is due to bitcointalk going down a few days back. It should be effecting everyone Title: Re: An Error Has Occurred - Searching has been temporarily disabled.

This could be related to a possible forums DDoS attack vector they have been attempting to exploit. /tinfoil-hat Title: Re: An Error Has Occurred - Searching has been temporarily disabled.

No the disable has nothing to do with the bot account registrations, but the RAID failure. Due to a failure of the RAID array that bitcointalk.org was running on, the database became corrupted. It was necessary to move the OS and restore the database using a daily backup. About 8 hours of data was lost (anything after about Jan 21 21:44 UTC). I've been busy getting the forum back online, so I haven't investigated this much yet, but it may be possible for me to manually restore lost posts/PMs by searching the recovered database files for keywords that you remember. If you lost a post or PM that you feel is absolutely irreplacable, PM me and I'll see if I can recover it. Everyone's drafts were also all lost. These are not backed up because they're automatically deleted after 14 days anyway. Search is temporarily disabled because I need to regenerate the search index before it will be usable again.

I believe the rank doesn't matter and he can lock his own thread as a newbie. IIRC, there is a "lock topic" button somewhere at the bottom left corner if you are the thread creator.

Sorry if there are already threads about this, I can't really find them using the search bar (for obvious reasons). Everyone is seeing this. Good news is that I have an idea. If you want to search something on bitcointalk forum, just google BITCOINTALK + <YOUR SEARCH TERM> . You will get what you want. |
