Forum stability issues lately
-
There have been some downtime and stability issues the past few days.
This occurred because I have been working on upgrading the database (mongodb) from version 3.6 to version 5.0 which involved 4 upgrade steps from 3.6 -> 4.0 -> 4.2 -> 4.4 -> 5.0.
Since mongodb is not available on openSUSE I had to compile each version from source which caused the server to run out of memory.
I have one major upgrade left, from version 5.0 to 6.0, but I will use a different machine for compiling so it does not take the server down again.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
