It's up again!

Nooooeesss!! :( It's down again!

Btw Aeon, did you know UESP Wiki is up and running again? ;) Just messin' with ya! :P

Yeah I was kind of shocked too when it happend! ;) Anyway they're gonna do their absolute best to get it fixed! <3 EDIT: I said "outage" but I can understand the outrage! I'm sorry but there isn't anything else we lowly admins can do except prepare the way for the one who will come after us. For his name is Daveh, and he bears the Passwords of Enlightenment. And he shall walk amongst us And verily let it be hoped that he getteth the frak on with it. rpeh UESP Administrator *giggles* ^^ EDIT: And it's UP!! :D Yaaaaay!! <33

Assuming that you're Lokee from Bethsoft forums, thanks.

Members @ Bethsoft forums mentioned both Server and Database down. This could indicate a full restart. EDIT: Quoting Lokee @ Bethsoft forums: EDIT 2 (21:50 CET): Server seems to be back up, database still not working.

Yup it's down alright, hehe. I'll keep checking, and post back when there are updates. In the meantime, use Google Cache!

Holy crap, a data farm fire? By the Nine Divines, I hope they didn't lose the site completely! I love that wiki to death. Alkser, you can open the Main Page yes, but try loading an article, or searching for something. Does it take you back to the Main Page? By the way, I should mention. We can always use Google Cache to view the site, last recording was July 1st I believe. I'll keep updates in the original post.

Original post: The Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages, more commonly known as UESPWiki, was offline for a few days. Luckily the problems seem to have been resolved! A fire and power outage in the Fisher Plaza data farm in Seattle, last Thursday (pardon the pun) might have been the cause, no confirmation yet. I have kept updates on the matter down here: JULY 5TH - First signs of database issues in the evening. JULY 6TH - 9:15 CET - Database went down JULY 7TH - 13:15 CET - Whole server dropped off the net JULY 7TH - 20:20 CET - Members @ Bethsoft forums mentioned variable results. Site often down, but there are indications of server restart. JULY 7TH - 20:45 CET - Stormcape (aka Lokee @ Bethsoft forums): "The Wiki is having a Database server issue since Sunday Night. We have no ETA on a fix, nor do we know why it's down. The site administrator has been telephoned and e-mailed, you just have to be patient as he's an extremely busy man." JULY 7TH - 21:50 CET - Server seems to be back up. Database still not working. Stormcape's update: "The ISP has restarted the Database Server. It's now running but the SQL Daemon failed to start, meaning we could potentially have data loss. At this point none of the sub-admins have enough access to the Database Server to run diagnostics or restart the SQL Daemon so we have to wait for the Site Admin to get home from his job (lots of travel) and fix the Database Server. More updates as I receive them." JULY 7TH - 22:05 CET - Update from UESP Administrator rpeh @ Bethsoft Forums: JULY 8TH - around 14:00 CET - Server and database back up, UESPWiki working perfectly once more! JULY 12TH - around 14:00 CET - Same problem has occured, presumably. UESP has a problem once again. We're all confident they'll fix it soon, stay tuned! JULY 13TH - It's up again! UESPWiki forum members suggest it's a number of small linked problems. They will most likely resolve over the next couple days. Thanks to Stormscape (aka Lokee @ Bethsoft forums) and rpeh (UESP Administrator) for the updates.
