Sorry. That was just me going around and messing things up.


Phew, at least we know it's not something inherent to the state of the server ;)

The account server ran out of file descriptors. I have increased its limit now.

Edit: Hm, I didn't think of it, but the account server still uses select() to poll its clients, which doesn't work very well with >1024 file descriptors. I'll have to convert it to use poll() before I can restart the server.

Don't be silly. There's no such thing. :)

Done. I hope it doesn't corrupt everyone's account instead. :)

(I'm always a bit nervous when changing stuff like the account server that have been quite stable for a long time.)

That is why somebody invented backups :)
