velospace blog

Note to self: when Drupal starts acting up, check the /var/log/mysqld.log for corrupt table entries and repair if necessary.

The most recent velospace downtime was caused by the Drupal database “variable” table getting corrupted and pulling down the site. Load on the machine was spiking up around 100 and things were ugly all around. Thankfully the problem was solved and life will go on as usual. We appreciate your patience.
