The March 2023 database problems were- wait I don't even need to explain it, everything is in the title.
What happened ?
According to 
SlowRiot,
"it's hard to tell right now, because of the way things are set up with this particular db [...], but the issue appears to be occurring at the filesystem level ; we use RAID-1 for this storage, and SMART monitoring info is suggesting both the disks in the array are failing their self-test, but it does not diagnose what the failure is" [...]. (Link to the MCO Discord message)
Basically, both drives that holds the database storage had problems at the filesystem level, so files couldn't be located on the drive.
What was down
- The website was malfunctioning, but still on.
- The Wiki was off and on depending on the moments.
- Freedonia was down, but a temporary server was put on.
- Before it was turned off for maintenance, the message "[LP] A database error occurred whilst loading permission data. Please try again later. If you are a server admin, please check the console for any errors." was shown when trying to connect.
