  #1  Server Problems  Posted 24/01/2009 @ 18:31
Since midnight last night, there have been some problems on the server that GB is hosted on. There are a number of other websites that have been put on this server, which has caused GB to run slower over the last few weeks, and as of last night, something on the box is causing GB big probs.

I'm looking into it now, but can't guarantee when it will resume normal service, so in the meantime, apologies for any timeouts, dupe posts etc. I'll post more info when I know more.

Cheers

Yeah sorry the problem has been present since midnight Friday night. Something appears to have changed on the server that's causing the problem. Diagnostics are being run this morning and I hope to have the problem resolved at some point today.

In the meantime, apologies, you will notice quite a lot of error pages, and as a result, dupe posts etc.

Apologies also to the mods, it's a pain in the ass

Just posted and got an error message. So backed up and copied the post in case, but it had actually posted when I checked the thread.
I know it's probably been said, but checking before re-posting is definitely worth doing.

May not always be the case of the user re-posting.

I've just posted a reply to a thread. only posted once got a white screen and when i've rechecked there are multiple posts.

Totally mate, I didn't mean to imply that. I was trying to be generally informative rather than griping.
