TIME OUT Messages

I've been getting a lot of TIME OUT messages from LS lately. Is anyone else getting them?

darkangelism · 02-16-2005, 10:15 PM

you post there still?

Duke · 02-16-2005, 10:20 PM

She means Lifesupporters.

Gateway time out?

Can you copy and paste the next message you get here?

darkangelism · 02-16-2005, 10:21 PM

oh....

No Duke...I can't make a copy of it. I've tried several times. It's a pop-up error message. Something to the effect that the server has timed out while trying to reach LifeSupporters. It's usually between posts when several people are on. I'll type the exact words for you and give you the time the next time I get one. I've been getting several a day....but I'm on here more than most during the day other than Star. I don't know if she has been getting them.

write it down on paper then type it in after

If you hit your PrtScn button then you can save it in most programs such as MS Word or any graphics related programs. Save the file and then e-mail it to me so I can see what it is.

I haven't gotten too many error messages myself. Sometimes I get an e-mailer php function error, internal server error or page cannot be displayed messages but that's pretty much it and there not happening all the time.

It's only a short error message DA....but since I'm blonde...I'll take your advice.

Just take a print screen image of it Merika, it's the easiest option.

Merika · 02-17-2005, 08:19 AM

I can't get it to print the screen......which may suggest it's a problem within my own computer....not the site. Or even a Mozilla problem. Anyway:

9:15 am EST: The operation timed out when attempting to contact
www.lifesupporters.com

Usually, it only lasts a minute....then I can move on.

I've been losing alot of posts and only when I am on lifesupporters it seems to run slow..... but that could be my puter

Merika · 02-17-2005, 09:26 AM

I've lost them too...during the time outs. Bad part is....I never knew it until I come back later. I now check before moving on to another topic. It seems to happen more during the day.

darkangelism · 02-17-2005, 11:25 AM

i have had it run really slow lately

Merika · 02-17-2005, 11:26 AM

Any ideas on what could be causing that?

All it takes is someone on my server to abuse bandwidth and this site suffers. Canaca has offered to move me to a new server so I may just take them up on it.

I'll let you all know when I'm planning on making a move so you won't be suprised when you come here and there's no site. I've never moved a site before but I can imagine it's gonna take a while to download and move all my files to a new server (assuming I can't just drag and drop the files to a new ftp). I'm also very concerned about screwing up databases so my paranoia may lead to a prolonged period of downtime, prolly not more than a few hours to half a day I think (at the very most).
