Trouble accessing for forum from laptop

[Norie]

Every time I try to go to the forum from my laptop I get a timeout message from something called CloudFlare.

I can get access using my phone, which is what I'm using to write this message.

Is anybody else experiencing this problem or similar?

Could it be a problem on my side?

I had problems also in the last few hours. Perhaps the site had a problem and it is now fixed?

[Norie]

I was hoping it would be a temporary thing but I just tried and the same thing happens.

Did you get message from CloudFlare about a timeout?

I'll try to post a link to an image of it I uploaded.

By the way, this is not solved - think I hit the wrong button somewhere.

Hi Norie,

I was getting a completely different error message. I was trying to change my Display Settings, as my Hybrid view was showing wrong icons. I was given an error message coming from the website about line 15 of the HTML code.

I'm using IE 10 and need to use Compatibility Mode to get this forum to work correctly. Usine IE I need to click on Tools -> Compatibility View Settings ; and then add this forum to the list.

I've gotten that error message earlier in the week but not today.

I haven't had any problems accessing the site but earlier today it was acting kind of strange. It seems like it's back to "normal" at this time.

I was getting this all evening/night:

Website is offline The server may be down for maintenance, there may be a network problem, or the site may be experiencing excessive load.
Error 522
Connection timed out

It also said my browser was ok and CloudFlare was ok.

I emailed Admin because I thought my IP address might have been blocked.


I guess it has been mended but no comment from anyone as to what happened. Glad it's not just me.

Regards, TMS

I can now access the forum from my laptop but the first time I tried it I got the CloudFlare message and was then redirected here.

Next time I tried it seemed to take much longer than normal.

Does anybody have any idea what's going on?

Tech Team tinkering?

Your thread is marked as solved. Is it?

Regards, TMS

[Norie]

No, it's not solved.

I think I pressed a button, or something like that, by mistake last night when creating the thread.

[TMS]

Fixed ... not marked solved now

I've been getting a blank, white screen when I try to switch Forums and/or after I've posted a response . Also, cannot type in this reply box unless I go to Advanced.

I am at a total loss as to what exactly is going on behind the curtains, seems like "Error Messages" pop up at random, whenever the server's Code encounters "something odd".

My latest =

header('HTTP/1.1 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable'); header('Status: 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable'); header('Retry-After: 17200'); // in seconds print "TEST123";

Members List also not available. It says I am not logged in.

[TMS]

Members List works for me. Have you opened an anonymous browser?

[arlu1201]

These issues started yesterday (Sunday) and concluded with the malware attack today. Its sorted now.

However, incase you get the error messages again, please let us know.

Also, am moving this thread to the Suggestions for Improvement subforum.

[Norie]

Just tried to visit site on my laptop and received the CloudFlare timeout message.

Tried again and got through.

[arlu1201]

Can you send me your IP address via PM? I will ask it to be checked.

[Winon]

@ TMShucks,

Members List works for me. Have you opened an anonymous browser?

No. I have just tried again, and it responds with - "You are not logged in, or you don't have permission to access..."

[TMS]

Still works for me. Suggest you PM Arlette and ask her to check it out.

Regards, TMS

[arlu1201]

I am able to view the members list.

Winon, please clear your cache and try again.

[Winon]

@ arlu1201,

Thank you Arlette, I can access the Members List now.

Somehow my settings for clearing the Cache on exiting browsing, just restored itself by some kind of mysterious way, since it never happened before.

All fine now.

Regards

[arlu1201]

Ok great its solved.
