The problem is either the new forum software, operator error, hardware issues or a combination of those. If CC is outsourced then they could demand a refund from whoever is running it. Or they could be doing it in house. I doubt CC is running on a server in Laura’s office but you never know....likely the server is in the cloud. The team that Jenn has mentioned could be outsourced or in house. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I agree, I also think that the servers, switches and routers they are using are undersized, because it only hits on weekends and holidays when a lot of people are not at work or are stuck inside due to weather.

mking8288 #484 Posted January 22 Heads up / FYI ... Check your favorite forum, maybe log out & log back in again ... Norwegian forum seemed to be back, at the moment - still a bit sluggish. Probably a fair # of CC addicts gave up, reducing demands on the DBMS cloud server, easing bandwidth & processing bandwidth, or whatever. Enjoy it while it last, until the next cycle of partial forum failure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reminds me of 1995 AOL when more people would dial up at busy times of the day to connect and then you'd suddenly get kicked off with that dreaded "Goodbye!" and get disconnected. Then it would take multiple attempts to log back on and sometimes you couldn't. It's incredible that it still happens with websites almost 25 years later! Are we going forwards or backwards?!

Charles4515 #489 Posted January 22 I usually get the same message everybody else but last night I got an error the said that said couldn't connect to Cloudfront. Not a tech person so have no idea what that means. Someone with knowledge in website hosting should correct me if this is not right but as I understand it MSQL will be running on a host server (s). So will the forum software. CC would be using a hosting service. One that supports the Invision board software. Not all can. Then they are using a distribution network (CloudFront) to speed up distribution. The issues would be on the host server. Could be configuration of MSQL, configuration of Invision ( the forum software), not enough bandwidth.... The tech team is probably the hosting service.

I always stay signed in. Not sure who to tell. It has been that for for me too since the switch over. The time it takes to load both is almost as long as logging in manually IMO. 9 hours ago, Host Clarea said: That would be a real shame Andrew. I agree but I love doing it “Live” not after a 6 hour loss of CC. I know there’s nothing you can do but at times you must fell like throwing your hands in the air in submission. Quite a few regulars have left or severely limited their posts and eventually they will just leave. 9 hours ago, coevan said: well then maybe you should tell us what's going on I suspect Bob would like to know what’s going on. 10 hours ago, singinalot said: That makes me so sad 😢😢😢 dang it CC get ur server together I hope they can get it together too. I have done a “live” without the App and it was OK, but not as easy. I’m toying with a semi-live with night time updates. The other idea I’m playing with, and have thought about before, is a photo review. Literally photos with no words. Just pictures. At least I wouldn’t be wasting my time typing and it would not take a lot of time to catch up if CC is down for hours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ULCajunCruiser #494 Posted January 22 (edited) Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this, but it seems to happen only here so... I have frequently been getting this message when I try and view this board. It has only happened on this board, and I can still see and read others (like my roll call, or the St Thomas board) Anyone else seen this, or know what it is or how to fix it??? An error occurred(500 Error) We're sorry, but a temporary technical error has occurred which means we cannot display this site right now.

BND #495 Posted January 22 (edited) It's a known issue. There's a "technical" board and I and others have posted about it. It's random, but they do need to fix it. Here's the thread: Edited January 22 by BND Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fredflint #498 Posted January 22 if you look at the error you can see the site is now hosted in the Amazon cloud the error seems to show a configuration error or has been stated they did not purchase a right size server but with AWS you can usually change it. Unfortunate since some people are looking for timely information. I pretty much just look at the digest that is emailed to me the new web site is just not an improvement over the old one. Change should be for the better not for the sake of change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
