dotdash79 Posted December 26, 2021 Report Share Posted December 26, 2021 I know you are still sorting things out but i keep on getting intermittent Internal server (500) errors, this is happening on a coupe of different networks I'm connecting on and different browsers. Just though i would let you know as it's server response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazyfool01 Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 Yeah same for everyone I think … it seems to take a couple of attempts often to access different pages within the forums sometimes I get the 500 error , sometimes the page just doesn’t load Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted December 30, 2021 Report Share Posted December 30, 2021 apologies for the further problems, because rthere were a lot of recovered files from the last problem, the server disk filled up, its sorted now and hopefully things will run smoothly. theres currently some reindexing of the databases happening, and also the daily backup - which might make things a bit slower than normal. hopefully things will run smoothly when they've finished.

JanieM28 Posted January 3, 2022 Report Share Posted January 3, 2022 I’m sorry to ask a stupid question as I’m a bit late to the party but could someone point me to a post outlining what’s happening with the efestivals website? I gather there have been some problems but I don’t know why. Are there plans to bring it back in full or is it remaining as a forum-only site? It was always my go-to for festival news before the pandemic and I miss it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted January 11, 2022 Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 you could try using the 'default theme (via the theme link at the bottom of the page), it might give fewer errors.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuna Posted January 11, 2022 Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 Cool I'll give it a go. Not sure why it would do anything as it's a server comms error, but computers are weird. (I say this as I also got a few 504 server errors last night, so less generic than the 500s.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartbert two hats Posted January 12, 2022 Report Share Posted January 12, 2022 I updated the theme and tried several times over a couple of hours before this page would load. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartbert two hats Posted January 12, 2022 Report Share Posted January 12, 2022 And it seems to be almost unusable at midnight. Sometimes it's more likely than not to get a 500 error. It's pretty bad at the moment to be honest, sorry 😞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartbert two hats Posted January 13, 2022 Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 At the moment, I'm having to make a lot of page requests twice. It's pretty hard to quantify "a lot", but potentially up to half of page reloads fail on first attempt, they hang. Hit stop, reload page and you're in. Either way, the forums are pretty poorly at the moment. I'm still on the default theme, but it seems to be behaving identically as far as I can tell.

stuartbert two hats Posted January 13, 2022 Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 Actually, after having to refresh a few times to get to this post, I've been clicking around the site and it seems fine for the time being, just as good as before the big crash. I wonder if it's cache or session related, as it always seems to misbehave when I check it after a couple of hours. I'll happily do any testing you can dream up.

stuartbert two hats Posted January 13, 2022 Report Share Posted January 13, 2022 Although I have just had a couple of pages that needed to be loaded twice - both topics with new posts on them FWIW. So, not entirely as good as normal, but certainly acceptable. However, it's that sluggishness after you've not been on for a bit which is a killer.

assorted Posted January 14, 2022 Report Share Posted January 14, 2022 Yes, coming to the site for the first time every day there is a considerable timeout for me. First request and sometimes multiple pages after (timeout, then error 500). It eventually behaves normally. Until the next day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
