Hi Bwana

I just alerted Hetzner to the fact that the June 99.9% SLA was exceeded with this hour's downtime. Will give more feedback regarding the downtime as soon as I get more information.

There are still some problems with MyBB's images...hope that will be resolved soon as well.
 
Sure felt like more than an hour - I think for the last few hours I couldn't get in.
 
Just had a few more DB errors.
Only the main page managed to just about load in the last 15 minutes or so.
 
I tried to get in at around 06h10. Tried again at about 06h20. Got in just now.
 
I also battled to get in for the last 30 minutes since getting to work. Only managed now.
 
We are indeed experiencing problems...will give details as soon as I get info.
 
Ja, I tried again between 07h15 and 07h45 roughly and got time-outs. All other international and local sites I tried worked.
 
Maybe it's time Hetzner stopped charging their clients so much and provide better security and support :)

PS. You may experience more "problems" in a few minutes...
