Uptime update


So we're at the next hurdle in keeping Friendica.World stable.

We now hit an issue where a cleanup job hangs the database. The database query it fires takes too long, and after a while this starts locking other processes in the database. Then the database connections fill up to the maximum, and the site becomes available.

I've raised an issue for this : github.com/friendica/friendica… and someone proposed a workaround they are using, we might try that as well until a fix has been created.

Thank you for all the hard work that you do!
I know I keep Tooting that it's offline every now and then (although yesterday, it seemed more off than on when I tried to use it). But I am really grateful for all the hard work. And I wish I was a Fedi wizzkid, so I could jump in and try to help out...
The next few months I am having some more expensive bits that need to be done and paid for. But after that, I'll do my best to send a little cup of Ko-fi coffee your way (I'll check how I can donate when I have some funds). I also wish I had more funds, so I could easily support the Fedi bits that provide me with a home for my social media needs... Alas...

Anywhoo.... Thanks so much for your hard work and I hope that the temporary fix will help to resolve (some of) the issues!

Seems like it first didn't want to share my comment, and then it went wild with it! Sorry... Tried to delete all the copies of it...

I hope it works, might make it worse first but then should fix it. But availability like this is not acceptable.

@Ruud I'd charitably call that "less than ideal"... ;)

Fingers crossed!
