@MLyons: getting the following error when trying to view the opnsense thread in Hardware. Code: An exception occurred: Mysqli statement execute error : The table 'xf_thread_view' is full in /home/bit-tech/xenforo/forum/library/Zend/Db/Statement/Mysqli.php on line 214 Zend_Db_Statement_Mysqli->_execute() in Zend/Db/Statement.php at line 297 Zend_Db_Statement->execute() in Zend/Db/Adapter/Abstract.php at line 479 Zend_Db_Adapter_Abstract->query() in XenForo/Model/Thread.php at line 2506 XenForo_Model_Thread->logThreadView() in XenForo/ControllerPublic/Thread.php at line 159 XenForo_ControllerPublic_Thread->actionIndex() in XenForo/FrontController.php at line 351 XenForo_FrontController->dispatch() in XenForo/FrontController.php at line 134 XenForo_FrontController->run() in /home/bit-tech/xenforo/forum/index.php at line 16
Seems to be fixed now - I was getting that error viewing any thread (including this one that I made!)
Is it the same disk that holds the main site? Could win a little bit back by running all the JPEGs through jpgcrush. Lossless optimisation - it'll shave 1-15% off the file size (but most usually 2-3% - not much, but every little helps!) EDIT: I've just used jpgcrush on today's article images, before I upload 'em to my Gemini site, to give you an idea of real-world gains: Code: blacklaw@xerxes:~/Documents/backtoit$ parallel jpgcrush {} ::: *jpg [1/1 -6.58%] 20260810-uwb.jpg [1/1 -13.18%]20260810-rak.jpg [1/1 -0.68%] 20260810-pirate.jpg [1/1 -0.47%] 20260810-ilabs.jpg Those were saved with the latest GIMP, so it's not like I was using an inefficient encoder in the first place. It's not much, but if you've thousands of high-res JPEGs sitting there it could add up!
Would it be better if us members used third party picture hosting, rather than on-site albums? I've only recently started using the albums but, am open to suggestions for a good, free hosting service.
3rd party is bad. All the pics on old logs are gone because of them. If I had money, I'd send a hard drive.
@MLyons always reach out if you need some funds to help keep the server up and running. Not talking £100s, but a few 10s of quid here and there are a possibility. I'm sure there are others on here who'd also be willing to give small donations. I'd love to share the burden, but I'm actually very poor in terms of computing knowledge. I know how to build a PC, install Windows and then play games and watch Netflix, but that's about it! This server malarkey is magical to me.
