Another apology to everyone.

I upgraded the instance to 0.19.1 today, and the upgrade unfortunately had a major issue. This caused the Database to become fairly broken and it has taken several hours to repair the damage and the database.

I have found the root cause of the issue and will be implementing some changes to the backup routine to avoid this issue in the future for future upgrades. This is thanks to some very welcome help from the admins on the Beehaw instance who are incredible and supportive.

As a result this will be improved and shouldnt happen again in the future when upgrading. I still need to run a vacuum on the postgres database but I will do this tomorrow, but there will be a 15 minute window tomorrow when the site is unresponsive while this is run.

Hopefully after that there are no more issues and the site can finally come back to being reliable again.

Kind regards,

• P
