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.
cheers,
