When did you have those previous problems? It might have been going on for some time, but without you being aware of it (during the morning over here, for example).Tyyr wrote:I had this happen previously but never to this degree. The site would have some issues for an hour or two then it would go away. This was most of the work day.

Only two things are infinite - the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the universe: Albert Einstein.

It's been a while, couple of weeks since the last time I can actually recall.

Re: Website failure
Yes, we've been looking for a new ISP but we have quite a high bandwidth requirement (although I must say it's lessened considerably since I switched the site over to text menus). We need PHP, MySQL, IMAP, 700MB of disk space and about 50GB/Month of traffic. Finding an ISP that will do that at a decent price is not that easy. I've found an unlimited one but I'm not sure I trust them to stick to the limits they say are fine.

Forum Issues
Am I the only one having major forum issues today.
Earlier today the forum wouldn't load, the first time, always had to refresh, but only once. Then I'd get the forum without any of the styling, just a plain white page with lines of text and links and pictures. Then this evening, I had problems getting anything but a blank page to load, only in the last minute or two have I gotten back to the traditional view, but I still have to worry about random white screens of nothingness ever link I click.
This happenning to anyone else?

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Re: Website failure
I'm having this same problem occasionally, not terribly bad, but it's starting to happen more frequently, and seems to be happening more when navigating to the main page.

Re: Website failure
I'm having that problem again now....If a mod would move the two threads that were created for that here I'd be thankful....my computer didn't show me this one, and then because of this problem created two of them.

Re: Forum Issues
Same here... btw, you triple posted this.

I had it too... probably the same server issues which Ian had mentioned last time.
