...Yes, I know, and I'm sorry...

The worst is when you've just typed a long message including lengthy tracking numbers, click send, and the forum goes down. #yesterday

It's all right, my wheelin' and dealin' just had to wait a day. I hope the recipients don't mind. I must say I really appreciate being able to use the fantastic connecting avenue that is this forum.

Yesterday and today the forum's search function hasn't been working when I try to use it.  When I try searching, it brings up a page saying:

Database Error
Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator.

When? Last night everything was fine for me.

Jose S.M.

I couldn't enter the forum for about 8 hours or so yesterday. Everything was fine on the afternoon but then it was out all night.

For me it was all ok at least from 8 PM yesterday to 5 AM today, but I can't say about earlier yesterday.

It was out last night for me too. Happened once before a couple months ago.

"3,000 km to the south, the massive comet crashes into Earth. The light from the impact fades in silence. Then the shock waves arrive. Next comes the blast front. Finally a rain of molten rock starts to fall out of the darkening sky - this is the end of the age of the dinosaurs. The Comet struck the Gulf of Mexico with the force of 10 billion Hiroshima bombs. And with the catastrophic climate changes that followed 65% of all life died out. It took millions of years for the earth to recover but when it did the giant dinosaurs were gone - never to return." - WWD

Yes, we've been experiencing sporadic downtime. Sorry about this.

The forum was down again last night, and for some time this evening too. It happens quite frequently, what about changing server?

DinoToyForum

Sorry for the recurring downtime.  :-[

I'm doing all I can to get to the bottom of it...

Thanks Dr. Admin. We appreciate you working on it.

I think I might have resolved whatever issue was causing all the recurring downtime. Over a fortnight ago I made some significant changes behind the scenes and the server hasn't gone down since. It could just be a coincidence, but fingers crossed that this frustrating problem has been nipped in the bud. Time will tell...  O:-)

Edit - I might have spoken too soon. I think we just had a couple of minutes downtime :)



DinoToyForum

Maybe I spoke too soon about speaking too soon. :)) The site seems to be performing well.

i see this on the ATF page when i open it
