Board down a lot lately for short time

#1

Post by garystroble »

Getting this message on and off quite frequently for the past couple of days: "Sorry but the board is temporarily unavailable, please try again in a few minutes."

It usually comes back within a few minutes or less after clicking on refresh a couple of times. Any item what is going on?

I know a lot of changes on the Church servers have been happening lately, like the household info change. It might have something to do with that.

When you see the message that "the board is temporarily unavailable", is that all you see on the page? Or, does the rest of the page appear properly, and it's only the message that is out of place? I have seen the latter case from time to time.

When it happens the board is missing and I just see the message with anything else which might appear on the page less the threads. Eventually a refresh brings the actual board and threads back.

No. As long as the Forum is not responsive, the notice appears with each attempt to access the site.

This has been happening regularly for me for several weeks. I was not been able to get here for most of this morning. Although most of the time the board comes back in a few minutes, as advertised. And sometimes it even shows up on the next click a few seconds later.

I'm seeing the same behavior. It rarely comes back on a refresh or two. I usually have to do something else and try later.

Happened to me for the first time a few minutes ago. Took 3-4 refreshes, then it responded normally.

Over the last few weeks, I’ve also been having the same issues described. Thought it was just my setup.
