It's been a right pain over the last week - and is worse than ever this morning.

The site also seems a lot slower to load at the best of times.

Thanks. I did some tests on the server last night and one point in the routing had a 5% packet loss so there's definitely a problem.

I expect the engineers will be on it tomorrow. :smile:

Cheers,
Shaun :biggrin:

It's been a right pain over the last week - and is worse than ever this morning.

The site also seems a lot slower to load at the best of times.

Ironically, I've spent the last four weeks working solidly into the early hours every night to optimise the server to work really fast at serving the new site pages.

Unfortunately this is a networking issue at the datacentre where the server is hosted.

I have an ongoing support ticket that I have used to document this weekend's outages, and hopefully they'll get it resolved as soon as possible.

Cheers,
Shaun :biggrin:

The engineer found another server that was flooding the network causing the packet loss. That's been sorted now, so CC should be back up to speed.

Cheers,
Shaun :biggrin:

Can't get "new content" at the moment, I just get forwarded to a bright Green screen displaing this message:



"Server Error - 500

Sorry, there is a problem with the page or resource you requested.

I'm not complaining, just saying... ;)

Yes - I've just seen a green error screen for my first time ever on new CC.

And I was wondering why the Hover had turned into "View Result".

Yes, I've just finished reinstalling it, however it's only partially fixed as there are bits floating around in the back-end database that I still need to sort.

Ironically I can't test it from my iPhone :smile:

Are you still getting 500 (green screen) errors?

Cheers,
Shaun :biggrin:
