Me lots, also been getting the Database error as well. :((

I've been getting both responses as well (just affecting this site).

No problems over here in the west.............yet

Thanks for letting us know but it would also help if you could note what time it happened as well (AEST preferably)

I've learned (the hard way) to pre-write my replies in Notebook or other word processor, so I don't lose the text when/if the connection goes off the rails. Attachments still need to be re-done by hand, but usually don't have attachments in replies.

I got this tonight at 10:52pm
Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

It is caused by the heated discussions on climate change. :oo:

I've copped quite a few over the last few weeks, but it doesn't seem to be any particular time period to me.

The only "common" thing about the occurrences seem to be that, for me, they occur at around 20mins past the hour (AEST), almost any hour, so I've been assuming they're periodic maintenance loads on the server. :shrug:

I'm probably wildly off base though. Not that that'd be anything new.

G'day,

Who's on first base? :? :stooges:

:shrug: happens to me too, the server telling me I can't get in, but you get that in life :D

I get the server is down bit, hit the refresh on your browser etc.

Been getting "The Server is busy" for the last 10 mins or so... from 15:25 'til just then. (15:34)

I've copped a few "server too busy" responses;
plus several login rejections - "you have entered the wrong name or password".
Now k_s is not too hard to spell and my browser remembers my password - so?????????

And again this morning at 9:27am, again, refresh fixed it.

It hasn't happened to me since I started this thread. Maybe that's another fix :?

You haven't been here long have you :D

At 9:52 AM Melbourne Time, I received a message that the server was "too busy." Just reporting.

Same here, hitting Refresh fixed it.

from about 11:00 last night and from about 10:30 this morning, the site is as slow as mud.......other sites are working fine.

Pages barely load.......:~

FWIW, at 9:39 PM Melbourne time I got The Server is Too Busy. At 9:50 PM it changed to Database Error. At 10:00 back to Server is Too Busy. At 10:03 managed to get back on the Forum.

Do I need to get a life, or what? :D

Site went AWOL for 25 minutes tonight.
Got server busy at 9:35 pm til about 9:45 pm & then I got database error til about 10pm & nothing was posted to the site by anybody between 9:34 pm & 10:01 pm

Server busy at 21:37 AEST, Refresh didn't fix it, then got Database Error.

Forum didnt come back until about 2-3 minutes ago.

G'day,
Got a "Server Too Busy" at 9:37 PM Sunday 17th June
At 9:50 got a "Data Base Error"
At 9:55 got a "Server Too Busy"
10:02 back ok again.
The "Refresh" button did not work in any of these situations.

Must be a Central Victorian thing Noel:rolleyes:
