@Sanguine I saw you say on another post that freeflarum isn't suitable for communities with 200+ members. Say a forum reaches 200 members, what should they do then?

    @Sanguine Im not sure if this is the correct place to post a support. But suddenly my forum started showing this error "Flarum encountered a boot error (Doctrine\DBAL\Driver\PDOException)
    SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused
    thrown in /app/vendor/doctrine/dbal/lib/Doctrine/DBAL/Driver/PDOConnection.php on line 31"

    Is the freeflarum database down maybe?

      Up2Vex the MySQL server just crashed/restarted due to a bug in MariaDB. It has automatically recovered.

          Cheers! Back online 🙂

            Sanguine Hi Sanguine, its happened about 5-6 times in the past hour. I was wondering if its maybe caused by the new money extension which was added to the host?

                Sanguine wow didn’t know this, time to rethink the idea of selfhost flarum

                also my instance is giving me the same error

                    https://admintech.flarum.cloud/ is showing the following error

                    Forum is down.

                    Here's the MySQL output, if anyone has any suggestions:

                    The money extension is currently being removed, that was the only change for today so that suggests a causal relationship. Fingers crossed. 🤞
