Post news Report RSS ModDB - IndieDB mirror outage - Resolved

Welcome to 2015, we had a slight issue with our mirrors due to a 2k bug.

Posted by on

Welcome all to 2015, we are super excited to see what you all will create and release this year.
As 2015 rolled over our mirrors were not able to recognize the date change, causing around 60 files added on the 1st of January to be lost into the twisting nether of the internet.

We apologize for this inconvenience and are working with the developers to get their files re added and live as soon as possible.

Unfortunately due to the loss of these files, you may find your recent uploads have been removed, or downloads report a 404 error.

Your invited to contact support, or myself directly to assist in getting your files re authorized as soon as possible.

If you do have any issues downloading files from our mirrors, feel free to leave a link to the file in question in the comments below.

You can also keep up to date with site updates on by following me on twitter.

We wish you all the best in 2015, Keep changing the game!
Your, DBolical Staff

They were just 15 years off. So close!

That's quite unfortunate. What exactly went wrong? Quite unusual to fall flat on the nose during a unsuspicious year change.

our mirroring system saves files to /YYYY/MM/DD format. unfortunately the code didn't have permission to create the 2015/ folder

Owned by file permission. But on the other side it's good to see that file system security works as expected :D .
