Trouble getting into the forum

Post by sluckey »

I've had a difficult time getting on the forums ever since Friday afternoon (08/30/2024). Worked fine Friday morning. Mostly I get the "too many redirects" error. When I do manage to get to the "board index" I get another error message from the site and most of the quick links do not work. Anyone else having trouble?

See attached pics...

I got the same response. Deleted my cookies, no difference.
On my mobile phone the layout is like old html.

Maybe the server just needs to be rebooted.

I too have had problems. Flushing cookies helped briefly. Not a cure. Hopefully one of the admins can fix it and restore all to normal, whatever that is.

yes, logging in doesnt take you automatically to the index. You have to click "index" and then the page appears.

Seeing all kinds of broken behavior when using my bookmarked "new posts" https://ampgarage.com/forum/search.php? ... nreadposts

also Board Index link is broken.

But if I simply load https://ampgarage.com/ most posts are working ok.

Weird.

I'm not able to get the site to work predictably even after clearing cookies, but it seems to work fine if I use an "incognito" window. Not sure why that's working but clearing cookies didn't, but maybe it can help admin figure out what's going on or point to a better solution on the user side.

Czech Republic.

I've been having issues for about the same length of time.

This, just now:
Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator at webmaster@ampgarage.neampfest.com to inform them of the time this error occurred, and the actions you performed just before this error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
I had to stab at it a few times before it put me through.

Also, trying to post the above, it duplicated itself.

Now, when trying to edit, I got this:
Not Found

The requested URL was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Yeah, I keep getting 404 errors. Actually, the first time I clicked "reply" on this, I got a 404. Hope it's just a hiccup!

I am still having some issues as well.
Doesn't work on my phone but on the computer I can get everything but Dumble Discussion to come up without Incognito mode.

I am still having the same issues. It works better in Incognito Mode.

Actually this is on FireFox now and it works better than Chrome normal. One snafu going to this post I had to reload because it didn't load the page properly.
But I logged in and I can view the forum without any 404 errors.

[update: right when I posted this just now I got a 500 error from the Dumble Discussion board... I reloaded and it came back up... hope this helps the admins]

Been trying to get on all morning. Finally made it by using quick links---your posts. Hopefully this message will post. The errors seem to be very random. Almost impossible to navigate. I'm using EDGE on a pc but Chrome acts the same. I fear the forum is about to fall off the cliff. We need some admin help. Phil? Xtian?
