Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!




I don't know how long the forum has been down today because I made a trip out of town, but I know it has been off and on since 4:00 p.m. It is driving me crazy.... :tickedoff:

Did anyone else have an issue?  If so please post a time that it was occurring.  I'll contact our host to see what has changed that is loading down the server at the specific times.

Jim it was slow, more than two minutes to load a page at 1:30 my time (Pacific). I took a nap and it was cleared up by around 4, my time.

Thanks Tina.  That helps. 

If anyone else experiences slow page loads, please post here so that I can nail down exact times in order to report to our host.

I couldn't get on here yesterday afternoon either but I'm not sure what time it was.  If it happens again, I will keep track of the time.

I was talking with Dianna today about 12:45 when the forum started slowing down again.  I contacted our host and they found some issues that they plan to fix this evening.  The forum will probably be down as maintenance will be accomplished on the server.  This will start about 10PM EDT and last no longer than 2 hours.  Hopefully this will fix the issue we have been having.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Has the maintenance been done? I had to go take a shower and unwind a bit...

I don't know, Dianna. It has seemed just a wee bit slow to change pages but that is it.

Maybe he decided to wait until the west coast went to bed? :unsure:

I think our host is on the east coast with us. Looks like he would wait until the west coast got sleepy, too, before he did the maintenance... :grinnnn:

Argh!!! :tickedoff:

Are Jim and I the only ones that had problems getting on the forum last night? :unsure: We tried from 8:00 p.m. up until the time we went to bed and could not get here... :mad2:

Seems it was a DNS server issue that was eventually fixed.  That's why it only affected us and not everyone.  There was a problem with the disk array and it has been fixed.

Like we understood any of that.  :ScratchHead:  Well I sorta did until you started with the disk array...  :grinnnn:

I had no issues last night or this morning. Oh wait, I didn't try this morning.  :giggle:

Glad its working now.

It is 3:40 CST and the forum is running extremely slow for me.  It took about 2 minutes just to get to this web page and now that I am here, the pages are changing very slow.

Now as soon as I posted that, it got a little better.  Still slower than normal but not as bad.

And I had to come back and edit because now it is running as it should.

1:28 PST, slow to add my post, about 45 secs. 1:30 PST it took two full minutes to change pages. Then nothing at all for a few minutes. It wouldn't change at all. Now at 1:45PST it seems much better.

It is not just you, Jessica. I lost a post in here due to the slowness...

Jim and I are very sorry that the forum is not stable now. I don't know what is happening with our host, but I would like to find another one that is reliable. I am thoroughly fed up with the service we are receiving... :tickedoff:

I am sure Jim will be emailing the host as soon as he receives the email I just sent him. He was in a meeting, so I couldn't call when the forum started experiencing problems...

You don't have to be sorry.  I am not here complaining.  I am just trying to help out so you know when it happens.
