how do you, as a developer - rollback data, or merge 2 datasets?
im using datastore2 module, and cant even comprehend how to handle this type of error.

Luckily for most European players this only happened at night since now services have returned to normal.

Losing data during/after service outages has nothing to do with luck or anything Roblox can resolve. The developer needs to properly interact with datastores and not overwrite your data with default data when a previous fetch call failed. This is 100% on the developer writing faulty code, so don’t expect Roblox to help out here, ask the developer of the game you are playing to refund or rollback your data.

Nope, I am european and it wasn’t night when it was happening. (At least for me)

This issue is still persistent although not as frequently. I am still getting reports of people not loading into the game as well as Internal server errors.

Can confirm this is the same error being thrown in my experience, still occurring as of 11:15 AM EST.
Causing some servers to break entirely.

Issue is still prevalent as of 11:41 AM EST. To the point in which I’ve had to temporarily close my game because of the HTTP 500 (Internal Server Error) message appearing in every server, followed by the server breaking entirely.
Edit 12:34 PM EST. this is my error I’m receiving:
Would really appreciate if an engineer can look into this. My game has had to be down for over an hour now and I’m unsure what to do.
There is definitely still an issue here, the issue has not been resolved
Seems like a steady amount of players are continuing to report issues as well on the down detector:
EDIT 2: 2:13 PM EST
I can confirm that I am not seeing these issues any longer. I was able to reopen my game, and not a single report of this issue. Perhaps it just took a bit for the servers to be fully operational again,
As such, my problem (at least in my case) is resolved.

Our experiences is also having the same problems. However, one specific game have the servers entirely broken.
When joining, it creates a server, put your user in it then immediately disconnects you out, attempting to “Reconnect” triggers an ID=17 code.
This caused the game to clone multiple servers with the same single player.
Yet, all other experiences work flawlessly other than the Roblox’s datastores being unaccessible at the moment.

I’m guessing a lot of games on the platform do this too for their data systems which is really bad…
Just wanted to mention, in case it helps anyone. We had a bunch of reports in the last few hours of people saying that they couldn’t get into our game as they were stuck on our portal’s loading screen.
When I investigated, I found a couple of servers that had running since the datastore outage, that still weren’t able to talk to the datastore. They weren’t raising errors just appeared to be hanging on datastore requests.
We restarted the whole place and all seems to be okay now…I hope 
Edit: okay, now I know what happen. One of our core modules makes a call to the datastore while it’s loading. So when the datastore breaks, anything that requires that module will also break.
And everything requires that module. Whoops!
Don’t be like us 
Just a tip in this regard, I highly recommend making your require graph “static”: That is, that your Modules never do anything other than define functions and classes when required, with things only happening once the requiring script uses those functions / classes in some way.
Otherwise you’re inviting a lot of issues, like this, and also accidentally changing the behavior of your place just because you changed the order of require calls in an entirely unrelated part of your place.
Thanks!
We’re trying to move to purely stateless modules. Especially in prep for Parallel Lua. We just have a little bit of technical debt to work through 
Temporary fix to that is to type /clear in the chat - but it’s definitely not an easy or desirable way to fix said issue.
For weird reason, players are occasionally losing their stats. I’ve been getting more frequent reports since this incident even after the fix.

I’m assuming given it has been two years, that this issue is resolved and that consequences like data loss or failed purchases have been addressed. Please reach out to Roblox with new bugs if there are lingering issues.
