OK, the first pic is something I'm well'n'truly used to by now... especially just after midnight on the last server. Occasionally, only occasionally mind, I'd get a "Server is too busy" type msg. Now I'm seeing it at random times throughout the day... but what's worse is the second pic. It seems to come and go any old time it feels like it, at least once during every session. Sometimes it disappears at a click of the refresh button, at others I have to walk away for an hour or three.

Is this being generated by V-bulletin or the server itself? I'm guessing it's to do with the latest VB update (from the logo) but...

Call me curious. ;)

I get a couple of 'Server can not be found' errors every session.
Sometimes just refreshing the page fixes it & sometimes every new page times out til I close them all & start again.

This new server is fast.... when it feels like it, bit like a teenage boy.
Motor bike compared to cleaning bedroom. :D

I've also been getting sql errors, which I have never got before, and sometimes it takes 'forever' to load pages.

Hi there

When did you last get this error?

Hmmm... I don't think I've seen it today, but it reared its' ugly head a couple of times yesterday and several times on Sat night.

I didn't record times, although that snapshot has a timestamp of 00:12 last Sunday morning. I've been meaning to ask about it for a while, but keep getting sidetracked. :rolleyes:

Edit: I tell a lie. Copped it about 6PM(ish) this arvo, which is what reminded me to post the query. :o Nothing wrong with my memory that a lead injection wouldn't fix. [sigh]

Thanks, we had some problems saturday night/sunday morning. I'm pretty sure i've sorted it out (i hope). If you see a run of those errors again please let us know.

Hi gang, I'm not suggesting what I have to say is your problem, but a lot of people are coming to me with their PC's saying they are having drama's loading up certain sites lately.

The first thing I do is check to see if they have installed, the old Microsoft Java, or have upgraded to Sun Java.

Seems the older MS Java is having trouble reading scripts from many websites including eg., eBay. Not many are aware MS Java is being taken over by Sun in a big way.

Installing Sun Java fixed nearly every one except for one chap who's IE browser was an old v5.

Hope this helps.

So how can we install Sun Java? I got an error message like Skew's second picture a few minutes ago.

Skew,

It is the server telling you to go to bed:D:D:D

Hi Rocker

If you get that error, the problem is caused on the server rather than your PC.

It lasted 2 or 3 minutes, i'm not sure what caused it yet.

Yep will go along with that Steve, been having trouble loading up pages myself recently.
Anyway, Sun Java will enable you to visit a lot more sites without stress when it isn't a server issue.

Sun Java is easily found in Google and a standard part of later Microsoft platforms.

Something new & odd now happening.... it is not setting threads as read after I have read them. Weird.

I've also been getting sql errors, which I have never got before, and sometimes it takes 'forever' to load pages.

Likewise!

I've also had the (VB?) originated dbms error; not every session, but frequently enough.

Page load times tonight, are the worst I ever had on the forum. Getting lots of of can't load page errors (timeouts?), but get the page 'instantly' when I hit the refresh. Just needed 6 attempts to upload a small pic. Browsing te rest of the web with no problems, including the woodworking channel.

Also getting the timeouts tonight, but at least I am getting through after clicking refresh. 'Tis far, far better than sitting there for an hour or two, clicking refresh every 5 mins until it deigns to let you in.

The new site has disadvantages but overall I'd say it's a hell of an improvement over the last 'un! :)

This new one seems to stop for a sheyet or something about every hour or so, server just goes dead in the water for a couple of minutes, 'can not find server', &, if you wait long enough, a refresh fixes it .... I reckon the flam'n mouse is getting out of the wheel & nick'n off for a smoke.:p

Had this come up about 4 times in a row & then it changed to the old server busy message again.

Around about 10 to 10 tonight.

That's my old bug-bear Cliff, but I haven't seen it for a week or so now.

I'm glad to see it's found a good home. :)
