Site down times

Hey folks. You may have notice the site being down with an error about connecting to SQL server. Well we're all getting it. Seems there is an issue with our Hosting company and they have been working on it today. So if you keep seeing that error be patient and take the opportunity to hit the work bench! :mpup
 
Yeah,I wondered what was going on.
I have tried Piriform Ccleaner without being effective.(it sometimes works)
Then Clearing Cache for Mozilla FireFox, and that did work.


See you guys back soon.


Greetings,Ron.
 
:rotf I guess everyone has been doing that today so everyone's computers should be squeaky clean :geek

I'm kinda apprehensive about post a new review we have in cue right now because it came back up earlier today. Don't wont to have it half done and the server craps out again.
 
Yup had that and something about cannot connect to database. Figured it was something with the hosting service. Thanks for the confirmation Bob. :blink
 
Thanks for the info, I made a post to my CTA thread before noon when it was up and when I just was able to get back on it seems to have disappeared.

That's not good, sorry about that Gary. I guess maybe your post went in at a point in time it was up and down. Unless it pops up consider it lost and post again please. Might want to wait till tomorrow, I'm still seeing the error but not sure if it's because I just fired up the laptop at home and it's still drawing from cached pages.
 
No big deal but there was one from Terry there as well when I posted and it was gone as well, may wait till AM tomorrow to repost

Guess it could have been worse, I was thinking today when the last backup I ran. Better to lose a couple of post instead of a whole year. :blink

BTW, just made a full backup of the database. :good:

Looks like it's stable again folks so let's get back at it. If you post something yesterday and now don't see it, please repost.
 
Thanks Dave, you can stop sucking up now..unless you did something that's gonna get me in trouble again...:rotf

Seriously thanks.I've said many times that the web stuff and modeling are my hobbies so I enjoy doing this. What happened yesterday was really out of my control. The servers that host our SQL (database) was down and it was effecting not only us but many other websites at our hosting company. All I could do is put a trouble ticket in and wait for them to sort it out.

So let's model on! :soldier
