It was a problem with *this* board... and yahoo.
Sorry, but I did not get the emails through yahoo until this morning. Phpbb emailed me that (re-backing up of our board)
we encounter some problems, because the size of your forum
give us couple of days to fix this issue.
thanks (Tue, 12 Jul 2005 14:03:19 -0400 (EDT))
and then
Your backup will be uploaded into our server 60 minutes from this email sent. Tue, 12 Jul 2005 12:21:16 -0400 (EDT)
They've given me an url where the backup supposedly is located, valid for the next 72 hours but when I try accessing it it tells me HTTP404-error, page not found. I've emailed phpbb again about this, so it's likely we might have some more hiccups possibly over the next couple of days - OR, which I hope, they managed the backup just fine but there is a problem with the page where it now supposedly is.
I will also post this in the Global Annoucement. If any more down-times happen, it will only be temporary so please don't worry about it.
