Please post reports in this thread if you get a "page cannot be displayed" time-out error in the forums. Also, tell us what time the problem occurred.

Thanks,

Peter

Then when I close the browser and come back I am logged on but if i click on one of the topics I have to log in to post but my name is still is the user online list.

Tried to log out around 10am central

Peter,

Is the address going to change back to forums.poz.com or is it going to stay newforums.poz.com? I assume that's what the downtime scheduled for tonight is for. Otherwise, it's working fine for me and seems to be much faster. Thanks for getting the issues (hopefully) resolved.

David

Peter Staley · « **Reply #5 on:** December 06, 2007, 12:32:57 pm »

it will change back to forums.poz.com by tomorrow

The search member and Ignore functions are on the fritz also.

Was trying to put David NC on ignore in an effort to try to figure out what that mysterious "Hidden Buddy" deal was.

My buddy list said I had "5 buddies, 1 Hidden" and I didn't know what that was all about.

thunter34 · « **Reply #7 on:** December 06, 2007, 12:46:25 pm »

Never mind. I got it to work, but I still wanna know what a Hidden Buddy is.

I dont know if this qualifies as a problem....but I am having trouble navigating from one forum to the next and into threads...and making replies...its very slow. More than 10 seconds to open a window. 6:07PM

RapidRod · « **Reply #9 on:** December 06, 2007, 08:18:28 pm »

8:16 pm. It has really slowed down. It was working fine when it was first brought back online this morning.

I'm getting the following error. "errors on page"

Line: 2
Char: 1
Error: Syntax error
Code: 0
URL: http://forums.poz.com/index.php?action=post;msg=223818;topic=17635.0;sesc=1b0d57104d0c28b79478c4a941008d21 (or whatever page I go to, same error report.)

Peter Staley · « **Reply #10 on:** December 15, 2007, 10:35:08 pm »

So -- anyone having problems with the forums this past week? Ann tells me that she still encounters slowly loading pages at times -- it will happen during a period of time, where each page will take a very long time to load. Sometimes the top part of the page will load right away -- everything from the top banner ad to the thin line below the blue navigation buttons -- but the rest of the page won't appear for 10, 20, or even 30 seconds. Are others encountering this problem, or other problems?

Please report them here. If this is a widespread issue then I'll push our tech team to diagnose it and fix it.

I haven't had any problems myself over the last week -- everything loads very fast -- but I'm not in the forums as much as some of you.

been fine for me Peter

I noticed when I post a comment and it submitted it appears on the page - but when I go back to the main forum page and refresh or ga back to thread I posted in it is not there. It appears like 10 minutes later. Maybe it's resolved now, but happened three times last few days. Maybe you have a filter added. Anyway I'll post this and see if the long lag is still there and update with the results.

Update: Posted the comment and went immediately to the main "off topic" page to see if it registered. It had and It was bumped to the top with my name showing. Clicked on the thread to see if the comment was there and it was not. Refreshed the thred immediately and it was tsill notthere. Checked back 4 minutes later and then it was there (hence I'm typing this).

Might just be a cache issue on my end.

No big deal with the delay - I'll get used to it. Just bringing it to your attention in case it might be a more widespread problem.

Ciao!
Mike

I get an error message every time I try to post. When I hit the back button I see that my post has shown up...This just started happening today.

Queen Tokelove · « **Reply #14 on:** December 16, 2007, 02:09:35 pm »

It's saying a database error and it did it again....

mjmel · « **Reply #15 on:** December 16, 2007, 02:15:36 pm »

I compose a reply then I hit 'Post' button and the next screen is a message,
"Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator. "
I check and the post it always there.

I compose a reply then I hit 'Post' button and the next screen is a message, "Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator. " 2256hrs sunday evening.

So I put four almost identical posts on the mental health board before coming here to discover that it isn't just me!

I guess that'll teach me to compose a reply in 'word' first before pasting it onto the site

john

Yep, same problem here too.

Ok, when I try to change my avatar I get this message:

Your attachment couldn't be saved. This might happen because it took too long to upload or the file is bigger than the server will allow.

Please consult your server administrator for more information.

I just tried to post a message - 8:05am local time - and I got an error message. When I hit the "back" button, I got the warning that while I was posting, someone else was posting, but my message box was empty. I went back to the "Off Topic" forum and found that my message had actually posted. It happened to me last night, too, around 9pm local time.

minismom · « **Reply #30 on:** December 17, 2007, 08:24:09 am »

8:20, still getting the same error page message.

Andy Velez · « **Reply #31 on:** December 17, 2007, 08:41:40 am »

Peter, I also get that same error message as Queen and others do.

Last night in responding to a PM it didn't take and I had to re-write it. No problem with that this morning.

Yesterday was somewhat slow in taking entries. Seems to have recovered this morning. (Monday)

Peter Staley · « **Reply #32 on:** December 17, 2007, 09:48:25 am »

Okay -- these database errors started around 12:30pm on Sunday, and our tech guy says he just fixed the problem. If folks keep getting the errors, report them here!
