I saved the 29 March issue, and accessed from there!

Hope this helps!

I am here,all threads have a yes:New reply...........

Newnan, GA(Zone 8a)

thank heavens!! all my threads the same, but that's okay, I can work around that.

Brugvalley, Germany(Zone 7b)

It seems to me that my puter must load all it new..as more I click in DG´s as faster it becomes again.

Good to see you again..!

Newnan, GA(Zone 8a)

Dave, there are a few posts missing from early yesterday morning, ( I know that someone answered one I posted) but we are thrilled to be back:)

Seattle Burbs, WA(Zone 8b)

Here! Glad your back! I missed Dave's yestereday!

I had to restore from backup, and this is why all the posts since May 1st at midnight at gone. Basically everything from after midnight May 1st are disappeared.

You might also notice the times are now in Central time zone. That's because the server is in Texas. We had a severe server crash in Tennessee and I had to execute my disaster recovery plan.

We're somewhat back up and running, but there is still a lot of work to do. The PDB is currently offline, due to its bandwidth consumption. My server here in Texas just doesn't have much bandwidth.

LOL! that explains why everyone was posting at 9:30 and I couldn't get in until 10:30. will have to retrain my brain.

Plano, TX(Zone 8a)

I'm guessing no one has been able to post anything for the last hour?

edit: Well, this post worked, Hmmmmm

is no one here?? or is it my computer? I can't believe after 24 hours that there hasn't been a post in an hour.

Plano, TX(Zone 8a)

tiG, I'm wondering the same thing! I was able to post ... and so have you ... but no one else??? That's so strange. Well, I guess Dave's still working on things as he mentioned earlier. We'll have to be patient.

Edit: I just heard from others via email, that they can't even log on at all.

Yes, the majority of the members do not yet have access. Their ISP must reupdate their DNS cache (this sometimes takes up to a full day) and there is nothing that can be done to expedite the process.

Little by little, more and more members will be finding their way back.

oh!! you mean I got lucky once?? LOL! thanks so much dave.

Toadsuck, TX(Zone 7a)

Hey Dave.............that explains the downtime yesterday.
Thanks for letting us know.

I still can't get on by the url, I cheated and got through by doing a search on dogpile, then came in through a gardenwife's link, then had to log in to get to my home page, things look weird, some things are slow, blacked out areas, etc. I was having dg withdrawals!! but I had faith that you would get us back up again. thanks Dave!!

San Francisco, CA

I just got on, I could not get yesterday or this morning, and I noticed a lot of older threads appear to be update, maybe some of them, I had missed so I will go back and look at them.

Looks like none of them are new and the plant database is completely down for me. I can go to the plant database forum only, but not the actually database. I hope this information helps you repair it.

Dave, thanks for letting us know that. I've already notified some of the members I've been emailing with to let them know. Hopefully, somehow, we can spread the good news. We appreciate all your hard work!

Zone 6, OH(Zone 6a)

Ok, I'm back....hehe

Plano, TX(Zone 8a)

Yeah! Welcome back. hehe
Feels good, huh?

Woodburn, OR(Zone 8a)

I'm back :O)

Huntington Beach, CA(Zone 10a)

I'm here. It just came on around 2:30 pst. I've been checking it every few hours and was so surprised when it worked. yea!!!!

I was gone for 2 days before this happened, so when I came to DG it wasn't here, so that means it's been 4 days without DG for me....can we all say Hallejua!!!

Lutz, FL(Zone 9b)

Hooray DG is back!! I was feeling a bit lost! LOL

Ewing, KY(Zone 6a)

Sure good to be home!

Murfreesboro, TN(Zone 7a)

I'm baaaaack! With extra free time since the PDB is down ;o) Ah well...taking a sabbatical can be a good thing, yes?

Zone 6, OH(Zone 6a)

I guess not that many people are back yet...they can't be. There's usually a lot more posts and replies on here. Hmmm

Newnan, GA(Zone 8a)

I've answered a lot of emails about it, I know a lot of people probably have. Tomorrow will be better, everyone should be back on then.

Grove City, OH(Zone 6a)

Yay!!!!! I was just able to log back on!!!!!! I too got lots of frantic e-mails about 'what happened?????' So glad you got it fixed (at least enough for now!!!! ) Thanks Dave :)

Georgetown, TX(Zone 8a)

Even my emails to members were returned, so I decided I was being kicked out of the whole web. I finally typed in the URL, after a whole day of not connecting, as my dropdown wouldn't get me here.

I think it's a sneaky plot to force me to spend more time and money on eBay. Ha! Didn't work, I folded laundry and cleaned out a closet instead. But now I owe me some DG time.

Frederick, MD(Zone 6a)

WOW! Thanks Dave for restoring what you could! Have not been able to even log on - even tried cheating.

Thanks for your efforts in getting us back up and running!

Ellabell, GA(Zone 8a)

I was about to have a cow! And I don't have a fenced in pasture.
Two days seemed like a looooooooong time.

Northport, ME(Zone 5b)

Sorry i missed any problems. Been working past 3 days. Everything works fine from here. I'm on 56K modem.

Milo, IA(Zone 5a)

I was able to get on at about 11:00 this morn. Was kinda lost without you all. Glad were up and running somewhat.

N.C. Mts., NC(Zone 6b)

Oh thank goodness, I just got back on.

Newark, OH(Zone 5b)

Waving hands -- Here we are! Wasn't able to get in at 8pm, but got on first try just now. Bless your heart, Dave, anything we've been going through missing DG has to pale in comparison to what you've had to do to get DG back for us all. Thank you!

Crossville, TN

I was able to get back on about 5:30 Arizona time....which is the same as Pacific Time right now...and BOY! Does it feel good to be back home!!! Jo

Cullman, AL(Zone 7a)

JUST NOW~~I'm back and you all are back! I SURE MISSED YOU ALL!Doris


HEY Gardenwife, I just Emailed you to see if you knew what was going on! Looks like we both got on about the same time!
