34<PRE> When services DBs are updated in older versions of IRCServices (ie
354.5.*), *.db.save files are created, which are then copied back to the
36normal .db file name. I've had several occasions when services (4.5.43)
37would die during this DB file update, and I'd be left with a nick.db.save
38file, but no nick.db. If I then restart services, no nick.db would be
39found (obviously), and a new one would be started from scratch...not a
40desired effect.
41 Because of this functionality, I choose not to restart services
42using cron for fear of losing a .db file or 2. While it's possible to
43write a more elaborate cron script which would check for these .save files
44and copy them into place in the aforementioned event before restarting
45services, does version 5.0.* have a better way around this at all ?
46 Planning to migrate to 5.0.2...they're looking great.
