Revision as of 05:40, 11 June 2010
For those who were not aware, the founder of Digihitch passed away a couple of months ago. digihitch.com looks unmaintained. guaka had been in touch with Salman in 2008 to integrate hitchwiki and digihitch and got some kind of access to the server, which today proved enough to fetch a database dump and get access to all files. Please do contact guaka if you have more experience with digihitch administration (especially with PHP Nuke).
Let's try to at least preserve and possibly revive digihitch.com
Current issues
add more
Forums down?

phpBB : Critical Error Error creating new session
Fixed!! guaka 20:22, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
- But not possible to post new topics yet. At least all information is back, enough for today I guess :) guaka 20:30, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
Restoring status
- I downloaded the database and I downloaded all files in the root directory. There are a lot of directories and it's lot of work to recover the files in there one by one. Which directories definitely need to be fetched? guaka 20:06, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
- I just checked, I don't have write permissions for most files, I might be able to do stuff through PHP scripts though and I can fix stuff in the database (such as the forums which are back now, well at least readable). guaka 21:49, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
The domain name?
What can we do?
WalterHeck - 11 Jun 2010: we could try and hunt down his family and see if they are willing to help us get ownership of the domain name? We'd need a death cert for that I presume? The whois has a phone number in it:
