Has anyone else noticed this? That "500" message in german?
Also Ignatiefs thread Campaign for a "Romfell Armoured Car model" returns an error when I try to go there.
-
Yes, I've been getting the 500 Internal Server Error mesage a heck of a lot recently. I thought at first it was failing due to high volumes of traffic, but I'm not convinced now.
Was just about to post the questin as well Hammers, you beat me to it!
-
Yes, had it a good few times today as it happens :freak:
-
Same here. It does seem to be happening more often.
-
Yep, me too. I emailed Alex last week with the same error message details and he was going to look into it.
-
still no idea, I've got an really reliable webspace provider, maybe I just need an update. We'll see. Actually PHPBB 3.0 is out but it's an enourmous effort to take over all the suplements I've put here. And a risk...you know, never change a running program :? how said, we'll see.
-
I've not seen it at all. Maybe I just hit the site later than you all due to the time difference?
-
Nothing on my end either.

If it 'aint broke...
Unless there is a critical security patch I'd avoid upgrading.
-
Another thought was to change forum software at all. But currently I have no idea if it would be possible to import the PHPBB SQL database to another one. Need some time to research.

SMF, which I use for all my message boards, has a phpbb2 convertor

thanks, will check it!

I got the error so much last night that I gave up . I had only checked a couple of threads so it was really annoying . :(
-
aroung 11am this morning I got the same error
-
I've only just back on a few minutes ago since I posted that last message as I kept getting the error message . ( not complaining , just passing any on helpful information)
-
I think its getting more frequent, I couldn't access the site for a while this morning and it has just hit me again, midway through posting a comment. :x
-
often I cannot see the last message of a thread,
somebody has encountered this problem ?

my web space provider says our forum database is often overloaded. Too many queries. I've made some optimization changes on the forum configuration, less topics per page and so on.
I think now it should be a bit better but it's really a provisional solution. We grow really fast and our traffic and database too. Actually traffic isnt really a problem for the error messages but the database. It looks like that one day (maybe still this year) we will need an own web server. And that will be expensive :(
But not yet, maybe we will try it with another forum software first.
-
Well, if you need a contribution just holler. Maybe we could arrange a Ebay garage sale to or sumfin'.

no idea :? maybe your proxy server? try it with empting of the tempor.internet files

thanks, we'll see, I'll definitely need some support, the monthly price of a good server with guaranteed bandwith is ca. 70-80 EUR :roll:

960 a year. Thats like 100 members donating 10 euros a year. Whit the resent influx of members I don't think it is unreasonable to bvelieve you'd reach that goal. Speaking for myself, that's cheap for the service I get here. I mean, hell, where else would I get promoted to 'scatterbrained cleverman', just for a mere 2000 posts.
While a garage sale, meaning members getting rid of some surplus lead on ebay and donating the proceeds, may generate a one (few) times influx of cash, I think a donation drive is the way to go.

Sounds like a good idea to me for the monthly costs. I wish the dollar to EURO conversion was a little friendlier though! Some kind of "garage sale" or something like hammershield suggested could help with the web server too. Sounds like he's got a plan...He is a genius! I'd definately help out.
-
I've got no problem with 10 euro a month. I had a problem logging on recently, the solution to my problem was that I hadn't re-installed adobe flash player after re-installing my windows software. One adobe flash player installation later the only problem I have is the occasional time out message, which always loads properly when I hit the try again switch.
-
I've run into the occasional database error recently, including twice just now when I tried to load the main forum index.
I don't read German, but I think the error message told me I was a 'splattered zeitpunk' - doesn't sound nice, whatever it is. :lol:
I'd be up for a few bucks a year - with TMP turning into The Miserable Pit I can see spending much more time here rather than TMP forums...

Error 500 - Internal server error
Ein interner Fehler ist aufgetreten!
Bitte versuchen Sie es zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt.
Hm good excuse to look at porn for awhile :D no wonder there are so many sexual references on here lately. :o
-
I don't know if this is relevant or even useful, but the last couple of days, I've been getting the 500 message around 10.00 a.m. English time.
Is everybody logging on at once then?
-

Same here, most days recently, including today.
I assume everyone is very busy at work around then :roll: :wink:

Shhh! Don't let on! :oops:

Sounds fair, I'd happily chip in 10 Euros a year to help keep this place afloat.
I tried to donate a while back but PayPal gave me some error message in German beyond my understanding.
Let us known when you're going to make this move Prof and I'll try again.
-
I just got the error when I clicked o the top level Forum Index (I had it a couple of times last week too before I discovered this thread).
10 Euro a year sounds good to me for keeping the best forum on the web alive.
-
I had my first one yesterday :(
I couldn't access any pages at all, until I logged out opened the site in a new page.
I don't think there will be a problem in getting the required funds. I'm happy to pay an extra 10 Euros :)
-
Hmmm, just had a problem posting that last one. I got the following:
Failed sending email :: PHP ::
DEBUG MODE
Line : 234
File : emailer.php
As well as several Error 500s.
All seems fine now, though
:?
-
got lots of errors today :? Seems really to be always the same time.
I'm already working on the new version of the forum using Simple Machines software engine which is really great one (Pixelgeek, thanks for your advice!). We will get a compeletely new layout, new colours, new logo and lots of new nice features like uploading of files, pics etc. I guess, next week I will be able to show you all your new LAF :-)
I hope the change of the software will help a bit. If not, I'm going to get an own web server.
-
We won't lose all the old posts will we? That would be a shame.

no worries, yesterday and today I've tried to convert the old forum database and it really works. I just have to set some special ranks again (like some Royal guys :mrgreen: ), but all the other stuff (Posts, PMs, polls) does work.
-
Oh yes, I like my rank. It makes me feel special.
(Yes, probably in the 'special school' sense, before anybody else says it. :) )
-
New logo you say...

It also has RSS feeds and you can also modify the feeds to generate custom RSS feeds of only the boards you want to read.

No!

NO!

Well, alright then.
-

No!
not much changes at all, here a preview:

Pink is such a lovely and soothing color.
I am sad that I will miss the debut and must wait until May to see it. :cry:

Phew! That's a relief
:lol:

For the record, tonight, an hour & half ago (probably around 7 pm but I'm not sure cause of French summer time :roll: ) it was impossible for me to login, and instead of the traditionnal 500, it was an "Error 404-not found".
Matt
-
yes, sorry, was my mistake, an accident with a script :oops:
-
Owww, my eyes. :o
-
It's kinda educational though... I'm starting to pick up some German. ;)
-
Please, let me know if you would get today some 500 Errors again. I've made some additions to the configuration of my web space and would like to know if it works.
-
yep I got the 500 just right now.
-
yep I got the 500 just right now.
Edit:
and than a message of "Debug Mode" or something.
when posting this reply, this is the reason for the double post
-
Yep, just had a couple.
Edit: Make that about a hundred.
-
Same here. I was hit by a broadside of 500eds this morning.
-
hmm, OK, thanks, now added something else too, from now on, please tell me if you'd get 500 error once again
-

Yep - just a minute ago.
-
I just had one too, but a quick refresh got rid of it not nearly as bad as the almost hundred i used to get in a row
-
I had some @ 10.46am (UK time)
-
OK, thanks, had it too , damn :?
-
I had real trouble getting onto the site this am. (08.30 UK time.) I couldnt get on for around 5 -10 mins. I got the usual error message. :cry:
-
Yes, it was esp. bad this morning.
-
Just had another one, stopped me from accessing the site, at 11.40 UK time. Same "500" message.
-
Just had this trying to access the T&T thread at 1203 hrs UK.
Not sure if its my end or another problem:
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Unknown MySQL server host 'db490.1und1.de' (2) in /homepages/6/d67037610/htdocs/forum/db/mysql4.php on line 48

that could be useful, thanks!
-
Got a message from my web space provider, they said, they made some changes on the configuration of the server and now it should work without 500 errors. Please let me know if you would get one.
Sorry for all that trouble :(
-
Unfortunately I have to report one at 6.15pm UK time today.
To be honest though it is not even causing me a slight annoyance. If it had not been for this thread I would have presumed it was caused by two people acessing the same link at the same time, something I would have expected from the increase of users etc.
re-clicking a link is not the end of the world
-
Got the 500 error message this morning around 8.30 am again. :cry:
-
Yes, and several "Page cannot be found" messages.
-
One 500 error message or several?
From time to time I got one too but that's not unusual, I think it's getting better.
-
No, not a 500 error. In my case I sometimes cannot open new posts and get No page found, that is the standard IE error.
Alex, just tell us if you want us to shut up already about all this.

no, I don't want you to shut up :) I just want to know what errors you get and if it's getting better. Last week we had sometimes a complete breakdown of the forum for several minutes, that's the sort of errors I have to know.
-
Alright, now I got struck full throttle - received an error 500 message almost every time I tried to enter a topic (ie read the thread, not start a new one).
EDIT: And an error Message "Php Error sending message" when dispatching a PM and this post.
-
Yes, I'm getting lost of 500 errors right now. Just trying to go into the different sections :?

Whoa! As I tried to post the above the service really started to act up! I also got this:
Failed sending email :: PHP ::
DEBUG MODE
Line : 234
File : emailer.php
-
Yes me too. Tried to reply after a 500 error & got the debug error :?
-
yes, me too, only just the forum wasn't available for three minutes :? Now i will have a chat with my provider again :roll:
-
I just got the following message at about 23:30 UK time when I tried to return to the forum main page after adding a post on the VSF board:
Error 500 - Internal server error
Ein interner Fehler ist aufgetreten!
Bitte versuchen Sie es zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt.
-
I got the same error message although closing the browser window and reopening it seemed to resolve the problem.
-
all seems very slow this morning but the thing that made me post is the new posts since last visit bit does not seem to be refreshing.
Have viewed numerous times today and each time the count goes up and older posts are not disappearing
-
Same old 500 error messages again during the lasts 10 minutes.
-
i don't know how many, but i got a lot of the 500 errors the last minutes. wasn't easy to use the forum any more...
-
I dont seem to have had a problem since I last posted on this thread. :)
-
Another attack of the screaming 500's :cry:
I had been viewing topics for a while without problems, then was unable to access any topic at all!
(Approx 1525 hrs UK BST)
-
It took me around 20 minutes today before I got access to the forum - loads of 500ers
-
Ok, guys, thanks for your replies! My provider says, we need definitely a web server, we had about 5.000.000 visitors in the last 12 months and he's not able to guarantee a safe running of the forum as long as they have other customers on the server.
But the new software should make it a bit better. That will be our first step soon, I'm ready with the Forum Gallery and as soon as we have tested this, some days later I hope to be able to start with the new LAF, that means end of this week yet or at the latest at beginning of the next week :)

Look forward to this, though not without some trepidation, as you get used to how a place looks. 8)

It will look different, some of you will like it, some of you not. Sorry in advance :) I have tried to keep the spirit of adventure in the coming layout and I like the result, though I know that's not everyone's taste. But sometimes to discover something new you'll need the courage to lose sight of something old :wink:
