Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Besides getting the same 500 error existential crisis message nothing I write or post or like seems to stick ? Every time I open a thread it takes 30-60 seconds for it to open and then nothing works for me ? Anyone else having this problem ?

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 I am beginning to think it may be Google ? It has kicked me off the web now three times in 5 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterB Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 (edited) From what little I know of computers, if it is a "denial of service" type problem the system will be overloaded, slow and prone to crashing. I suspect @Mike and the backroom team will sort it before too long though they may have to take the system down for a while, so we will need to be patient.

Mike Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 The treacle is thick, and I've relayed this to Support. It's unlikely to be our "Russian hackers" back for another go, but you never know. Spite seems to be a persistent emotion with the anti-social few. Hopefully Support will fix it while I'm away from my desktop, but I'll keep an eye on things from my other devices in the meantime Please bear with us, and practice both your patience and modelling skills while we're S L O W 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alt-92 Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 8 hours ago, Richard E said: Edge (I know other and better browsers are available) Let's squash this right now. Edge is Chrome. Or at least, the rendering engine (the stuff that makes the site appear on your screen, parsing the code) is. So no, that is not the problem. HTTP error codes such as 401, 404 and 500 or 503 are pretty well defined and classed according to what is a probable cause. 400 numbers - configuration, 401 = unauthorised (ie no valid logon), 403 = access denied, 404 = page/resource not found (link rot, picture/file removed). 500 numbers - Serverside error. 500 is the 'generic' server error message. 503 - what we saw before - is a server error that gives info what could be wrong. You can customise HTTP error codes somewhat, so instead of a 503 that might give the passer-by more info than he/she should see, you can replace it with a custom 500 error page such as we see here. The detailed errors themselves are still logged on the webserver and will be used for debugging the issue at hand. /end course webserver 101 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checking in to see the very same thing. If only it was a shilling, eh? The next thing to see is whether the changes have resulted in the death of the errors, or are they still ongoing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got another 500 error two minutes ago when trying to post on the sci-fi page.and then another as I went to post this message. this is wierd as I tried to post the first line of text, got the "500 error" and hit back to clear it and then went to repost the message again and got left with the double line from my Android device.

nheather Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Recently, I have been getting this virtually every time I navigate to the website for the first time, just happened a couple of minutes ago. I am experiencing it on iPadOS and Safari. Like others, a page refresh clears it instantly and then I don’t get it again for the session. I have also seen a different but similar message amounting in the same way - but I can’t recall what it was - thinking it was something suggesting the site was down for maintenance.

Paul Thompson Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 (edited) 500 error page when trying to go to the Hasegawa Newsletter thread in Rumourmonger, 08.43, using Firefox (updated testerday) on Windows 10. Cleared by going back a page, because I forgot that F5 is normally sufficient. Paul. Edited December 7, 2020 by Paul Thompson Premature sending.
