jan 14, 2026 - Small corruption problem
Description:
At 7:00 AM (GMT+1), InfinityZoom187 restored a backup due to massive griefing in Stormhaven. However, he soon discovered a serious issue: 35 database files were corrupted. Upon joining the server, he found the world in a broken state, with a mix of reset and non-reset chunks scattered across the map. As a result, the server had to be shut down for several hours, especially since Infinity was at school and unable to intervene immediately. It was only later, around 2:00 PM, that he could properly investigate the situation. By approximately 9:30 AM, it had already become clear that the world itself was not corrupted, instead, the issue had occurred during the upload process to the server. The root cause was improper manual uploading of the world data. The solution turned out to be simple: instead of uploading the world manually, it had to be uploaded using the hosting platform’s intended import system. Once this was done correctly, everything worked again, and the corruption issue was fully resolved.
