all fixed.
If the other admins come in and it says something about xmb_threads.myi, you need to log on to the box using ssh, fire up the mysql client, and
type:
use aussievw_xmb1;
repair table xmb_threads;
This gets the place back on its feet. We lost two threads, and I think I've found one of them.

There's actually a deeper problem at work - our SQL server is corrupting data. I'm working with our hoster to find a solution.

Andrew,
Great site mate, especially for a newbie? Are you having stability problems with mySQL?
Cheers

Andrew,

Newbie? You or me? 
Yep, there seems to be a data corruption bug with mysql that affects heavy concurrent mysql uses, like bulletin boards with lots of concurrent users.
So I've scheduled backups once per day, and hopefully, this will allow us to recover if the worst happens with only a day's loss of posts
(max).
I'm monitoring the situation, and I'll let everyone know how things go.
Andrew

Hhehehe - make sure you are using XMB 1.8 SP1. There's quite a bad XMB security hole until that version.

Yeah - whatever.
Basaltic synclines, transgressive paleozoic dunes and domino theory are some of the things I crap on about. Your jargon loses me.
If its as confusing as a teenagers mind then you also deserve a medal.
Good Job! :thumb

I post on quite a few forums for different things, and I must say the XMB is quite a handy setup.:o
