I have bumped the limit up to 100k, can you try it again and see if it has helped?

should be fixed now

The authentication is cookie based, so you need to post to the login page + store the cookie that is returned by that. You might find something like httrack easier to use.

fixed, thanks for the report

Yup.

And in response to the original thread the reason that the server was AWOL yesterday was that the bandwidth was down (~1730-0200GMT).

PHP's character encoding got set to utf-8, but the database is storing iso-8859-1. I have changed it back to iso-8859-1, but anything in the last few hours has been stored in utf8 (so looks messed up). This was my fault, and occurred whilst upgrading apache. The reason that it affects your posts is ...

Slightly botched router upgrade, sorry about that. You can see I get to work some fabulous hours though ;)

Not bandwidth, there is oodles of that spare, it's the server -- it's old and slow (800mhz duron) and spends a good deal of time running at 100% cpu. It will be replaced with something more up to date in the next couple of months (dual core xeon). Speed variations are basically due to load variation...

Should be fixed now, let me know if it's not. It was caused by mysql managing to mangle one of its index files.

Data doesn't get archived, btw. It's <1Gb at the moment so there's no real point.
