Downtime this afternoon.
« on: October 22, 2009, 06:53:36 AM »
I upgraded some packages, and it looks like Apache forgot that mod_php was still there. Simple restart of httpd seemed to fix it.

[edit] Looks like google crawled the password for the forums MySQL account. If it does surface, don't bother trying to use it; the password has already been changed, and the database is regularly backed up anyways :)

How in the world would Google crawl that?

The SQL password is in a config file. Normally, when you surf to settings.php or whatever, you just see a blank page, or an error saying you aren't allowed to view the page directly, or something. When mod_php was disabled, httpd was just spitting out the PHP source.
