Hi Team,

Always on tasks are having relatively persistent DNS issues again - is someone able to investigate? Based on some other posts I think this is across multiple users

Thanks

When the problem started for you?

Since about 7am. All my tasks and my server are still down. I am getting absolutely killed right now

my sites are not working

Thanks for letting us know! It looks like after our system maintenance this morning, some SQLite databases were stuck in a "locked" state where processes would hang when they tried to access them. We just restarted the file locking service on the file server associated with your account, and your sites are up and running now, so we think that was probably the cause of the issues you were seeing.

As an aside: we do strongly recommend against using SQLite for production websites. it's a great database for development environments and early-stage testing, but for anything customer-facing we'd recommend using MySQL or Postgres.
