Seeing this:

I am wondering if I missed something. The date on that closed message says 2007, but I am wondering if it is now the case.

The only thing I can think of is to have someone reboot the SQL server.

Jason announced it way back in 2019.
Nothing to do with the SQL error.

I saw that old message right at the top of this section, "Moziilazine Tech". Since it was unread and at the top, I thought maybe it was new.

This comment was only referring to Miscellaneous Support section (which was never removed after all) as the message was not referring to the whole http://forums.mozillazine.org/index.php

That was an old thread in the old Miscellaneous Support forum section announcing its closure back in 2007 and was moved to the "Other Mozilla Discussion" area on in the forum Index.

The Miscellaneous Support was not useful enough to keep in use and threads often times had to be moved to the appropriate product section as you can see by the many threads -> shadow links.

Been a long time but if I recall the Firefox Support, Thunderbird Support, SeaMonkey Support and Miscellaneous Support were all together on the forum index. When Miscellaneous Support was closed , Kerz moved the Firefox Support, Thunderbird Support, SeaMonkey Support to where they are now on the forum Index
