27 May, 2006: Registration/log in system failure
Smij - Formerly Jimster Started conversation May 27, 2006
The BBC's member registration and log in system had problems yesterday afternoon because of a serious issue with the database software. The technical team was immediately tasked with resolving the problem, and they have just completed the fix. Without such a lengthy repair period, all member data backing up to the early hours of Thursday morning would have been lost, so understandably this has been a priority since the problem was identified.
Though the DNA servers remained active and stable, the problems with the registration and log-in system meant that members were unable to post new content. We've not been able to post content ourselves, hence this is the first opportunity we've had to explain what was happening.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
