  • Hey, even though I’m not officially part of this project, I’m sorry to say that at least for the period of April 6, at 12PM to 4PM PDT (Pacific Daylight Time), the maintainer of the server mistakenly didn’t see that the server had run out of storage space. This means that any dumps made by anyone within this time period didn’t actually get archived in the end. The exact amount of time is unknown. This 4 hr period is just the least amount of time the server was down for, so for all he knows, it could have been for the entire day of April 6th up until 4PM in the afternoon (PDT). Again, even though this wasn’t because of me, I’m sorry about this. If you can, could you please make the dump one last time if possible? As the archive servers are now working correctly again.

  • I appreciate you’ve gone to this much effort. Thankyou. I’m so sorry if this affects you. Because your message is 13 hrs ago, I will assume that you weren’t affected by this, so you likely don’t have to worry:

    There was an announcement on the Discord by the maintainer of the server which the entire archive is stored on. He announced that he’d accidentally not noticed that the server storage-space had run out, from all the dumps being made. This means that for at least 4 hrs, all dumps made by contributors were not being received, even though they thought they had been. Here’s the screenshot of the post.

    So the servers were first overfilled starting April 6, 12PM Pacific Daylight Time (PDT); and was fixed by the server maintainer at 4:08PM (PDT). However, all he knows is that the full amount of time the server was having this issue was “at least a 4 hrs”, so it could have started some hrs prior to 12PM; it could have even been the entire day for all he knows. I know this is annoying. I’m not officially a part of this project, I’m just spreading the word, but I’m still sorry for you if this affects you. If you think you made your dump within this time period, you will need to make the dump again. Otherwise, if you made the dump prior, but on the same day, it might be worth re-dumping, because your original dump may have not actually properly uploaded due to this mistake on the server-owners part.
