Anyone else been having problems with the site over the last couple of days?

 

I've been having problems with the pages being slow to open (so much so I give up) and pictures not displaying. I thought maybe it was my Donkey PC at work, but every other site worked fine.

 

Anyone?

It's been over a week now and I can't use the site from work at all anymore. The Home page comes up fine and as quickly as it always did. But once you try and go to the forum if it opens at all it takes ages, then when it does the page isn't displayed properly. Red crosses appear in all the boxes where pictures should be and the outline is wire framed. It shows me online, but to open a thread is a non starter.

 

All other sites and forums seem to work fine and I've tried it from more than one PC at work with identical symptoms. Come home and everythings fine though :?:( . Any ideas? I'm actually having to do some work! :eeek::roll:

It could be a problem with your ISP, or firewall at work.

 

Next time it happens, try and send me a PM and I'll check things out.

It happens every day and every time Mike. It started towards the end of last week and is the same every day. I can't send PM as the pages either don't load up at all or take so long it comes back with a message that the page is not responding.

Here you go, if the pages open at all they take ages and this is what they look like when they do. I can't however gat any further than that (i.e. opening a thread) The only thread I can view is the one from the shortcut on the home page, if I try and open one from the forum it just freezes up. :(

 

All other sites seem to work normally :?

then at the C: prompt enter

 

ping www.oldskoolford.co.uk

 

it'll contact the server and tell you how long it takes to reply.

I can abuse my position at work & set up some http availability/latency monitoring to give you some useful stats to take the the service hosting company if you like?

 

Don't worry it won't bring the site down, part of our business is 24/7 managed service/monitoring, all run of the mill stuff.

 

I would have thought the hosting company would be able to give some bandwidth stats or a traffic profile to identify problematic times.

 

The other point to remember is a good proportion of the images on the forum are hosted elsewhere, ie photobucket, this is really slow lately.

 

The other test besides the "ping" is a tracert as it shows all the hops:

 

"Tracert oldskoolford.co.uk"

Stars are not a good thing to see or big numbers .

Apologies to those that I've just bored the arse off!

Beunos Dias, que el paso de mumbo jumbo scorchio .... & I can order 4 beers like a local :)

 

Trouble is with t'internet the problem disappears as quickly as it appeared. There's something else having a hand in this as you are getting the page but not the content. I'll find another similar forum to see if you get the same.

 

From your description it sounds like its only at work & to OSF which is weird, do you know if your company runs software to block certain websites & types of content? (ie video from youtube & the like).
