PHPDN Forums Appear to be Down

Update: Everything appears to be back to normal now, thanks to feyd and his efforts to restore peace and order to the galaxy. Apprently our community fell victim to some form of ddos attack, and even though the host stopped the attack, there was some corruption at the data level that required a board admin to run some clean up duty. Thanks again to feyd for getting our forum back on line.

Well, I have tried all morning long to get into the forums, but I think they are dead at the moment. I think it has something to do with MySQL, but I cannot be sure at the moment.

I did attempt a call to a board admin to notify him of the condition of the boards. But for now, at least as of the last time I checked, the boards were still down. I will keep an eye on them for a little while longer on account of I miss my community.

If anyone knows what this message means (from a technical standpoint) it would be most helpful to us attempt to figure out the problem:

phpBB : Critical Error

Error doing DB query userdata row fetch

DEBUG MODE

SQL Error : 1016 Can't open file: 'phpbb_users.MYI' (errno: 145)

SELECT u.*, s.* FROM phpbb_sessions s, phpbb_users u WHERE s.session_id = '6309894f24c7d615ebba9e0886a7de46' AND u.user_id = s.session_user_id

Line : 367
File : sessions.php

I think there is a corrupted MySQL file, but at this point it is only a guess.

    What’s up Everah?! I just thought I’d drop by and check out your blog. I really like the template. How did you customize the backend like that? I really like that backend design. What say you to a link trade? I’ll link to you if you link to me :)

    Oh, and just so that this comment wasn’t 100% unrelated to this post, here’s some relevance.

    Man, that sucked when PHPDN went down!! :)
