Server issues

[justuk]

I've had several server problems..says site cannot connect to server, No issue my end either with my hosting provider or their servers. Has anyone else had any problems?

What exactly says what?
If you are talking about database connection errors, those usually indicate issues on the hosting side (even if they wouldn't admit it). If something else, please describe in more detail.

Apologies...perhaps I wasn't clear enough....trying to connect to my site and sometimes I get a blank page telling me it cant connect to the server, I can assure you there is no issue with my hosting provider. Just wondered if anyone else had the same problem sometimes?

[Aleksi "Lex" Kilpinen]

Ah, that could just be an issue with routing somewhere between you and the site - these things sometimes happen. Should usually be temporary though, and shouldn't happen often.

Still doing it..regularly. Been there this morning..just tried to log in again..cant...says cant connect to the server...

It does look like a network issue somewhere along the way, your host would probably be best situated to try and get to the bottom of it. Just tried, and your forum index took a good 5-6 seconds to come up but the footer says Page created in 0.08 seconds with 15 queries (which is good).

Happened again...It's so annoying,,in the middle of posting and boom...off we go. 

[justuk]

And again!! This is happening so much...why? any ideas? doing my head in..users will give up trying to post or join...including the ones coming over from my Jcink forum..

Like I said, your host would probably be in the best position to investigate this.
It is either a network issue, or a server issue.

[justuk]

Yes he is. I did a tracer route...happened again,,cant log in. I'm losing the will to live... Is it me? gahhhhh

Working fine for me.  All links work, fast page loads.

[justuk]

Thats great to hear..thanks..My hosting support think the issue is with my isp..they said the tracer route was fine..ok..if its me..what to do? Is it because I used my ipad? Should I use my laptop instead? I use either safari or google chrome....getting seriously upset here...bet its something really simple too..

btw..love your avatar. 😂😂

[Sir Osis of Liver]

Just checked again, still running normally.  If problem is your isp, wouldn't matter which device or browser you use, result would be the same.  Have you tried accessing forum with a phone?

[justuk]

Seems to be resolved!! my awesome hosting provider(see below) looked at my tracer route and identified the problem. God knows what it was...but it's FIXED!! yayyy. Apologies for my constant whinging..😂😂😂

I get so annoyed when things dont work how they should,,you know how it is..😂😆

Happy new year everyone!
