Echo_of_thunder 1 Report post Posted February 18, 2009 Okay this is down right weird and a bit scarey. About 15 mins ago I got 6 or 7 e mails sayin from Noname saying my SMF database was down. Yes it was there but not in use. So I went into my C panel and Deleted it. Now the strange thing. I could not log into Xisto I had to reset my PW.Could someone have been trying to hack me? I have changed all PWs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OpaQue 15 Report post Posted February 19, 2009 If the server MySQL service is restarted or halted due to any reason, your CPanel will report 0 database or will not allow you to access Database. Hence, an error message popping up on your website is understandable.In situations like this, its best to send us a support ticket and let us do the research for why you have issues rather than panicking and taking actions that can cause more damage.Is everything fine now?
