High traffic is bringing down the database about flood-map

@rajavm looking into it. Thanks for reporting.

I face the same problem. couldn't mark the inundated area..

Seems like the sudden surge in traffic is bringing down the database. We're doing our best to keep it up, but might have to wait till morning to move it to a more stable server.

Added an error message for the users now.

Still not able to mark the areas.

@jashjacob we should be up again within two hours.

Is the data on a database separate from standard OSM DB?

[geohacker]

@eternaltyro - that's correct, yes.

[planemad]

We're back up now, thanks @batpad @geohacker

[planemad]

Still seems to have intermittent issues. Looking into it.

Hi Guys - To help offload the main site, I cloned the project and copied the map layer at:

http://www.postsp.in

I also have setup a cron job to pull the updated map layer every 30 mins to keep up to date.

Please feel free to spread the link.

thanks @iraxl . We have managed to fix this though by moving to AWS auto-scaling infrastructure. Closing.
