Web server died yesterday, so am now in the process of getting everything back up and running, hence the missing images???
hopefully all will be back to normal soon

Looks good on this end (well, no missing images)

Is there any sort of postmortem on what happened?

not entirely sure, I installed some windows updates and rebooted the server and that was the last I saw of it, hosts said the virtual machine had become corrupted and they couldn't boot it up either. They created me a new VM and attached the old VM's disk, so at least I have all the data to copy over rather than having to upload it all from my local box just going through getting everything up and running DNS/Mail/SQL etc

They may be the odd file permission error as have not set any write permissions on anything as yet, but don't think that will affect snitz site too much

We really appreciate all you do to keep things up and running, Huw!
THANK YOU!

Don't you wish servers would never die, never get hacked, never be misconfigured by someone else?

*slaps Doug*

Wake up Doug!! You're talking in your sleep again!

Yeah it would be nice At least no data got lost and I didn't need the backups, the vm just refused to boot up

I had a server running continuously for about 14 years without a problem. The Chinese and Koreans tried to hack it almost every day of those 14 years, also. Some days there would be 200+ different connections from the Chinese PLAN alone. Used to read the hacking logs just to get an idea of what they were trying to do, but after a while, that grew old.
