Also chucked some in.
Bunged a few quid into the meter.
Some 50ps put in the meter
Do our hosts have anyway to see what caused the excess usage?
Do you have the capability to see if a particular IP address is the cause?
Anything we can do to help prevent a recurrence?
Iām still trying to dig through info. The core site hosting (Digital Ocean) is fine, itās the AWS bucket that we use for both backups and the image storage thatās gone weird. Havenāt had chance until quite late this evening to look at it properly, and tbh Iām not sure my brain is quite there right now! It feels like something doesnāt add up though.
TIPā¦
Go to listening area / kitchen / workshop / garageā¦ Observe detritus youāve not fucked with for over 18 months because: porn hub / Spotify / Glue / pizza / coffee / shoes. Contemplate the chances of ever actually doing anything with noted detritus - Offer it in the Toot Bazarr - Voila! you have just freed yourself from detritus and actually contributed to something other than: porn hub / Spotify / Glue / pizza / coffee / shoes - Youāll get to feel all fuzzy as you prove to yourself and the world you are a right thinking man.
I sincerely hope youāre not backing this garbage up.
Weāll have none of that professionalism nonsense around here, thank you very much.
Small sum sent. Sorry, all I had were these worthless British pounds.

Meter handle given another little twist
Iāve just put enough in to cover a few of the high res photos Iāll be posting later.
See here for the deal of a lifetime and the opportunity to help pay a fair chunk of the bill.
Just done that - Ā£30 now on way to the forum for a Seiko watch I had forgotten about.
Some more coins for the meter.
Ok, things have stabilised with the AWS hosting. Looking at the last monthās coming and goings, weāre currently about Ā£15 light each month. If anyone can up a recurring payment by a quid or two, that would help a lot.
Iām trying to find out how to increase the monthly Paypal donation, so far no luck. Does anyone know how?
If not then Iāll bung in a bit as a lump sum.
I tried a while back, ended up just setting up another seperate top up payment.
Just done a bit of reading on this, and it appears you have to cancel the current payment, and create a new one.
Iāve just set up an additional monthly payment to top up the existing one. It seems to be the easiest way to do it.
Brass sent.
