LAF Database Error message
« on: September 26, 2013, 09:07:22 PM »
I keep getting the following error message when I try to post ie reply or starting a new topic that included pictures in the afternoons.

Database Error
Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator.


Yesterday I got this error for a couple of hours, and was finally able to include pics later in the evening.
This has only recently started happening to me. Is the problem on my end? I have not changed how I include pics with my posts.

Please advise.

Thank you,
Amalric

ps If this is the wrong place for this topic, I'm sorry and please move it.

I've moved the topic to the "About Forum" board, no sweat.

Regarding your problem, could you provide some more detail, e.g.:

- When did the problem occur (time window)?
- Did you try to append images using the forum software or did you try to include them from an external source using image tags?
- Did the problem also occur when posting "picture free" messages?


Thanks for that. I don't know when we can look into it, but it's been duly noted.

Chris,

It seems mainly to effect me in the afternoons, say 2-5pm, in the Central time zone USA.

By way of example, this post http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=58579.msg698387#msg698387, was held up over an hour. I just keep attempting to submit it until it took.

And it only effected me when trying to post with pics. Pic free posts sailed thru no problem.

Good luck with it and thanks for replying.

That is rather strange - I haven't been experiencing any difficulties during that time (9pm-2am CET). I see you inserted the image using tags. We'll look into it, but it might just have been a connection issue on your side of the pond. If it comes up again, it would be great if you could copy the error message and post it here. If it crops up repeatedly, it stands to reason that it is indeed a problem with the board software.
