After database backend upgrades last night, modDB's Database server has been causing us some headaches!

We've reversed the upgrades that took place and will be doing some further testing to find out exactly what happened to avoid the issue in the future.

Thanks again for your patience!

UPDATE: We are re-testing the upgrade and are hoping to have it re-commited shortly.
UPDATE2: It seems the MySQL 5.0.21 Gentoo ebuild is broken. We will be holding off on the upgrade until it is fixed.

Lol, I thought it was nothing, like the site being busy or something...this wasn't the first time I got the so-called "database error" screen.

<.=.< ... ok guys, if you use MySQL on gentoo, then you really have not to be astonished why things fail. use PostgreSQL as this is stable and working well.
