The site seems to be running well again

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

It seems much faster at this time. See if it holds through the evening when it gets hit harder.

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

Spoke too soon I guess. Just got this as I tried to go back home after posting. Never saw this one before:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80004005'

Transaction (Process ID 216) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction.

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

SOS DD ;)

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

Nope. Not fixed yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

It's definitely performing very well for me for the past 10 minutes. Instant page loads, just like the good old days.

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

Yesterday it was fine in the morning, then as the rest of the country woke up, it was back to the usual slow loading, connection errors, etc. We'll see how it goes today....

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

Things seam to be working a lot better than the meltdown of a few days ago,, hope it keeps up.

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

<span style="font-size: larger">Nope, STILL not any better for me. And that is with either Chrome or IE 8.... Still S%U%C%K%S!!!! OFF TO </span><span style="font-size: larger">RCG</span>

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

:eek: Well , , Good luck with that ......... I'll take slow and buggy over Demonically Moderated ANY day ....... [:@]

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

It truly seems to be better now for me at least. Last four log-in's have been good anyway. :)

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

Working much better for me now. I'm using Firefox.

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

Working good here to:D

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

Nope; three "500 system errors" and two "cannot connect with that website" before getting through. And I have found RCG to be much more lightly moderated than RCU...

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

but here you are,,:D

I did get one 503 error earlier,, but the last few days it has been better

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

They may be lighter, but at least a few of them are rude and not very helpful. One person responded to a question of mine with a link to a three year old not helpful thread twice.

RCU does seem to be working better for me. :)

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

Grrrrr, I'm still getting this,,,


We are sorry...
You are seeing this message because of one of the following reasons:

Your session timed out.
The server was restarted before you made a HTTP POST (posting a message, registering an account, login, etc.)
Problem #1:

You probably spent too much time and your session timed out. This is, however, rarely the cause of the problem because we implemented a session keep-alive mechanism to prevent this issue from happening. However, the server itself could have experienced some problems that prevented this mechanism to work as it should, and therefore we cannot completely rule out the possibility of this either.

You need to make sure your browser has cookies enabled. See below for instructions:

Netscape Communicator 4+:

Select "Edit" from the browser Menu bar
Select "Preferences"
Double click on "Advanced"
Verify that "Accept only cookies that get sent back to the originating server" is selected
Select the "OK" button
Microsoft Internet Explorer 4+:

Select "View" from the browser Menu bar
Select "Internet Options"
Select "Security" tab
Select "Custom (for expert users)" security level and select the "Settings" button
Locate "Cookies" and verify that "Allow per-session cookies (not stored)" is enabled
Select the "OK" button on the "Security" window
Select the "OK" button on the "Internet Options" window
If you already have cookies enabled and still experienced the problem, see problem #2 below for other possible causes.

Problem #2:

Your server experienced problems and was forced to restart. Restarting a server will erase all session data and our protective mechansim had no choice but to drop your HTTP POST because we had no way to identify you without valid session data.

Many forum administrators host their forums on shared servers, on which could have more than 200 sites hosted together. Sometimes the server has to be restarted because some badly written programs on other sites may drain the CPU/RAM and cause the IIS to restart itself. This is unfortunately an inevitable situation that many site administrators and its users have to face from time to time.

The site has been better the last two days.

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

Sorry to hear you were treated poorly at the other site! If I came across as rude, didn't mean it that way. I was just trying to report that RCU was, at that time, still a disappointment for me. HOWEVER, I must admit that the past two days things are really looking up. Except for problems loading a couple of sale items in the Market, this site has been moving right along...

Hi all

I am in Sydney Australia and last week was a pain. It is fine now. Very fast.

500 - Internal server error.
There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

<span style="font-size: larger">STILL</span> not working well with IE8... Don't tell me to go to Google Chrome or some other browser; should work with the most popular (most used) browser!

RE: Site Problems fixed?
 

<span style="font-size: larger">Just an update: Not working with google chrome either...</span>
