Disappearing Posts

A couple of posts I have made today seems to have completely disappeared. They were definitely there this morning but now they have gone. Has this happened to anyone else?

Cheers

Haven't posted anything new, but I am finding that I have to sign in to my account every time - even with the "stay logged in Forever" option selected.  Prob some system updates going on.

Sorry about that Ian. I had to revert to a slightly older (<2hrs) backup of the database to chase an issue down.

The server migration that took place yesterday involved many core changes, including a completely different OS on the server...which came with some unanticipated bugs.  But along with the migration will come some long-term improvements, like backups every hour (previously it was once per day), speed, and more scaleable storage.

@mjrippe, the login issue I'm hoping to have resolved later today.

Not quite. I spent half a lifetime in *nix. I guess this is a sidestep. OSX.
I evaluated OSX a few years ago for server use and gave up on it, but the latest version seems to have fixed my previous gripes. What I really like is being able to use all of the OSX applications and Xcode server across the network. I now run a few other servers with OSX and being able to easily sync all machines for nuts and bolts stuff is pretty snazzy.

Is not OSX itself based upon BSD Unix??

Yes, it's pretty bastardized from it's roots by now. Hence me saying, "sidestep".

OK. I *think* I've gotten to the bottom of the login/logout issue.

That should have been resolved (i hope) just a moment ago.

Haven't been able to check for logout lately from laptop.  Curiously, mobile iOS is not kicking me out like desktop was.

 

[mjrippe]

Login Forever seems to be working fine now, thank you and a Happy New Year!

I still have to log in every time I come to the site.  Safari 6.1.6, OSX 10.8.5

I just noticed I cannot 'like' a post any more. The option seems to have disappeared.

Ethan, tomorrow is Saturday. Take a couple of days off. I am sure you need the rest. We don't mind; you do a sterling job.
