Subject: Is anyone able to access Garden Express forum

I am unable to access GE – since I tried yesterday I get the following error message. I did send an email yesterday to the addy displayed but as yet have had no response and continue to get the same error.

Wondering if anyone else is having a problem with it or is it my PC?

Main site at GE is coming up OK, just the forum that I am having difficulty with…

“General Error
SQL ERROR

Table ‘./phpbb3_gardenexpress_com_au/phpbb_sessions’ is marked as crashed and should be repaired

An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.

Please notify the board administrator or webmaster: admin@gardenexpress.com.au”

it’s been down for a few days now – apparently the administrator is away so we might have to wait until he gets back.

Thanks BG – you can tell I haven’t been around for a bit :) Sorry if it has already been discussed.

I wonder if they would let someone else have a go? Unless only Ian knows the admin passwords…

It’s not only the forum. The lady I spoke to was having computer problems as well. It sounds like things have gone to pot without Ian.

it seems like an odd way to run a business if only one person can do the IT stuff.

Mr BG says that they should have arranged a backup – even if they outsource it.
