[13:30] <mehdi2> hi, anybody with SMF forum experience here?
[13:43] <mehdi2> apollo13: zed, sorry our forum.ubuntu.ir keeps saying guest account is blocked and don't let us login in anyway! can you please have a look at our DB?
[13:44] <apollo13> mehdi2: I don't think so, I have no idea of smf, aside from that you do have access to the db yourself, don't you?
[13:44] <mehdi2> not now, unfortunately!
[13:44] <mehdi2> I'm on a trip...
[13:45] <mehdi2> it should be db issue, I guess
[13:45] <mehdi2> apollo13:
[13:45] <apollo13> well then we are already two with no secure access currently
[13:48] <mehdi2> apollo13: so can you take a look in our DB when you have secure connection? I'll be really thankful
[13:48] <apollo13> mehdi2: a) it won't be today, b) I have no idea what I should do there…
[13:48] <mehdi2> ok, thanks
[13:49] <mehdi2> zed: ping
[13:49] <mehdi2> apollo13: any other people I can ask for help?
[13:49] <apollo13> no idea
[14:17] <mehdi2> apollo13: ok, anytime you have access to servers please look in our db logs... maybe mysql "REPAIR TABLE TABLE_NAME" or "OPTIMIZE TABLE" will help...
[14:18] <mehdi2> is it possible I bypass load balancer to visit our forum? by adding some thing in host file ?
[14:18] <mehdi2> apollo13: ^
[14:50] <apollo13> mehdi2: "maybe mysql … will help" won't be enough; aside from the fact that it appears to be a software problem, a crashed table would throw other errors
[14:51] <mehdi2> apollo13: do you have backups of our db ?
[14:51] <apollo13> sure
[14:52] <mehdi2> it should be enough, nothing is changed in software side....
[14:52] <apollo13> doubt that
[14:52] <apollo13> looking at google there are more than one software reason for this
[14:53] <mehdi2> you can see smf_messages table
[14:53] <apollo13> I already told you I have no access currently, so NO
[14:55] <mehdi2> ok
