Hi :)
I have noticed that the forum is having problems on and off. Some days back it was not accessable at all for half a day. Since then seems slow to load and sometimes not at all. Gives this notice just now but obviously is going again. Any reason ?? :rolleyes:

There are 700 odd websites on the server, but AF is probably the busiest. Perhaps they are in lockdown.

Still crook.
 
Maybe too many/bigger photos posted since the refurb made it possible?
Seems like a few new members as well, but that can’t be bad.
 
Not unless there is a large number of simultaneous photo viewers. Storage isn't bandwidth.

We are nearing the end of the month.

  • The server platform BETA is currently report "Resource Limit Reached' when a user attempts to view a website.
    This is the result of an overnight upgrade that has not deployed properly.

    UPDATE 11:50am: The current issue with your web hosting platform has been escalated directly to data centre staff. There appears to be a power issue in the datacentre and onsite technicians are investigating the server currently. The is no ETR at this time.

Thanks for the update, the very windy weather has also introduced blackouts and disruptions, I guess we are very fortunate in that most times everything loads very quickly.

Hmm :devilish:
Yes ! To make it worse my internet provider is shite today also. But I am here now (y)

Yes. I have had intermittent issues with AF site for about a month, both at home on satellite and at work on fibre. I thought it may have been dodgy resource allocation to our rural connections, but obviously it is something more serious. It seems the replacement of the drive controller foreshadowed by GibGib above hasn't fixed the problem, if it was indeed replaced as promised. :oops: :(
 
Had a call from the host this afternoon.

There is something wrong with the server we are on which may be the motherboard.
This server is being replaced, but they are wanting to move us to another server instead that boast solid state drives, so.... this is happening mid night tonight. Hopefully no one will notice as no one stays up quite that late except, those toasty boys who stayed up 'til quarter past twelve. Silly.
 
Hmmn is there a problem with awarding someone a LIKE, for the content or wit of their post. or have I broken the Like limit, :mallet: keeps say 'Oops we ran into a problem..."

Just a very minor thing...
 
Hmmn is there a problem with awarding someone a LIKE, for the content or wit of their post. or have I broken the Like limit, :mallet: keeps say 'Oops we ran into a problem..."server error encounterred" just like now - sometime displays later, sometimes as several duplicates.

Just a very minor thing... Lets see what happens with this one.
