Not sure if this is a bug or I've just bolloxed something up

[Migrated From Jforum.net]

I run a nice little Jforum for our internal teams

Somehow...we have managed to "disappear" a thread from a forum.

Question is:

How on earth did we do this?

How do we make the thread come back?

And...if we didn't do anything is this a bug?

Try stopping and restarting the forum. I know I've seen some odd conditions where the cache repository gets confused. Haven't been able to pin point the reason and it happens rarely.

If it doesn't come back, then splunk the Database to see if it still exists in the jforum_topics table. If it doesn't, check the jforum_posts table(s) to see if any of the individual postings still exist. If they are gone from both tables, then it's a high probability that someone deleted the topic.

If the posts exist but the topic's gone (or vice versa), then it's probably a bug.

Rebooting the server solved this issue.

OOh we solved this....

By putting the temp file where everyone said it should be in 2.17 although we are using 2.16....
