Eugene thankyou for your work keeping the forum going. I can only imagine how much time you put in on it.

Well, the GMCforum website starts the New Year off with a bang.

The database and message storage were pretty messed up and any attempt at running the maintenance utilities would fail and make a bigger mess. Restoring to a backup didn't help, because the maintenance utilities would fail again and the mess would start all over again. This is somewhat of a carry over from the problem that occurred in August and actually well before that.

After many hours of wrangling, I decided to cut my losses (and end the amount of time I was spending on it) and clear out all of the messages and start off fresh.

The good news is, there are no more topics with empty message bodies:)

There is an on-line archive of all of the messages back to August 2007 on the GMCnet Archive Google Group:

http://groups.google.com/group/gmcnet-archive

I do have all of the messages back to 2004 and hope to one day figure out how to get these loaded into the Google Group archive, I'm close, but am only able to load messages that have currently valid e-mail addresses (Google Groups appears to check that before allowing a post).

Happy New Year everyone Smile
