I'm guessing it was a Chrome quirk. After shutting it down this weekend, the problem disappeared. Maybe it had something to do with the recent eclipse...

Is there a way to undo the delete operation?
I am asking this because, today someone posted a question twice.
Close a session when browser is closed in asp.net[^]
Close a session when browser is closed in asp.net[^]
I thought lets clean up the duplicate post. And I deleted one of them.
By the time I deleted it, someone else did the same and deleted the another one.
Well, can't blame anyone but now the OP does not have him question anymore. And I can imagine it must be annyoying for him.

Rather that implementing a complicated 'undo-delete' functionality, how about setting a standard.
I would like to suggest the following:
0. You never delete a post, on the grounds of duplication.
1. In the event of a duplicate post, add a URL to the first question in the body of the second question (and third, and so on... if applicable).
2. Sequence of questions is chosen by the number displayed in the URL, not by the time (i.e. 3 mins ago, 1 hour ago)
Wikipedia has a system that can be used to mark duplicate/similar articles. If we can implement a way to mark such questions, we can use bots to eliminate duplicates, which is like Wikipedia.

When you go to the questions page, which is here[^], we get tabs/buttons to see 'All questions', 'All unanswered'.
I would like a tab for 'All unsolved' questions. This tab would have questions with no answer/no answer is marked as a solution.

Unanswered != Unsolved
Someone can answer a question, but that does not mean the question is solved. So somebody can give more answers, or improve existing answers.
I know that OPs don't always mark a solution to their problem, even if a legitimate solution is given. But it will still be worthy to find out 'unsolved' questions.

I think you were lucky enough to hit database timeouts when getting statistics.
The values are displayed for me now

Chris,
I'm curious to know what happened today. Care to share the story?
Thanks!

P.S. - It seems RootAdmin was also affected.

I was on holidays so it wasn't me and you can't prove it anyway.
OK, fine.
What happened is that we needed to upgrade an index on a very large table. This was a quick operation on our dev/staging, but turned out to be (surprise, surprise!) a much bigger task on live, even though we tested against the same data. Much, much, much bigger.
I was expecting maybe 5-10 mins of weird-time, but it just dragged on and on so I killed the index creation. This then caused 2 further issues: An expensive rollback, and a database with an important index missing.
The simple solution was to take the site offline for 5 mins, add the index, and we're back on track. Unfortunately, a totally avoidable error. Live and learn.

So you were doing this live and only pursued this option after the crash?
Also, I still can't vote on IE at work. That is I have to hit F5 to vote a few times before it fails again. But every time I hit F5, I can vote a couple of times before it does fail.

I just thought I'd share a couple of things I've noticed, in the unlikely case you haven't noticed it yourselves.
- I was most of the time logged out.
- I was ALWAYS logged out on the "New Message" page
- The last updated date varied wildly

Hi Jörgen,
Apologies for the delayed response. We were frantically fixing the problem. It should be good now. You aren't still being logged out when adding a new message, and the date isn't still varying wildly, is it?
Thanks,

Everything seems fine since a couple of hours, but the string at the bottom of the page reads: "Web02 | 2.5.120604.1 | Last Updated 10 Aug 2007"
But having tested it on several forums, that date seems to be consistent for the few replies and new messages I tried.
|
|

That date is actually OK, but thank you kindly for checking on a few forums, as well as your detailed initial report. Very glad to hear all is well.
Thanks,

It seems to me that you had already fixed it when I posted.
I guess I should have mailed you at webmaster@codeproject.com instead of repeated retries.

Both webmaster and this forum are the correct places for the issue. You did good soldier. *salute*

Thanks very much for the catch. There were some problems with aggregated blog entries showing up and fixing that problem unfortunately created a few duplicates. I've been trying to catch them and appreciate the assist.

I've had two problems with the site today: first I got logged out between looking at a page and pressing the Reply button, and had to log in to avoid "posting as an anonymous user" (which I didn't know we could do anyway). Then just now I got switched between fluid and fixed layout without touching anything, except the F5 key.
I haven't added any software today, my browser is still Chrome 19.0.1084.52, just as it was last week, and I've had no problem with any other sites. Is it possible that some cookies are expiring at different rates? A quick look at the 15 cookies you have here and the expiry dates are a bit all over the place (10 October 2036, 3 December 2012, 3 March 2015, 14 May 2014, 12 November 2012, 6 June 2014 and so on)
It's not a major problem, but the fixed / fluid change is not the first time, and it's a little disconcerting!
