NA rollback

Post by AlanOfTheBerg
This is the first time I've seen this happen:
NA MAP ROLLBACK TO FEBRUARY, 9 2013 06:36 UTC

This morning, the usual daily tile update process encountered a problem, and we had to roll back the update the one before from Febuary , 9 2013 06:36 UTC.

We're working on solving the issue, and to get back to our usualy daily process soon.

Unsure. I have not read anything either way. I would hope the edits are still pending.

Maps updated to Feb 11 posted, or did someone already write that?

No, that was after the rollback. Check the tweets.

So this rollback has apparently created some map issues.

For example, this segment was realigned yesterday (due to current construction) and the turn pointers are at the new location but the segment is at the old. Any attempt to edit/save gets an error message. There's also a stray second segment with part of the new alignment. It looks like there's a mix of pre-Feb-9 and post-Feb-9 segments/junctions here and elsewhere.

Do we sit and wait? Any way to fix this (and similar problems in the vicinity and no doubt elsewhere)?

I checked my other edits of the past few days (naming streets in new neighborhoods, mostly, and building them in one) and they seem fine. It seems there are just a few oddly placed errors where there's a mix of old and new (old segments, new junctions).

The problem is in figuring out how to fix those odd errors!

Edit: Found some street naming that got undone. Ugh. :(

Edit 2: Trying to rename the undone street names doesn't stick. Ugh ugh. :(

Good news indeed. I never did find any of my edits that were removed, so not sure if the problem was localized areas or not. Hopefully that was a one time type problem.
