Admin Mk2Jo Posted December 4, 2009 Admin Report Posted December 4, 2009 I have heard from Oddball and KJ who have been unable to log onto the site since last night After initially thinking it was me that had banned them for a joke they think it maybe an issue from their end. The have 2 computers - one runs Firefox, the other Windows IE. Neither computer is able to connect to OSF. They can log onto every other website going but not OSF. They have not upgraded anything, loaded or removed anything. Ali has tried to go in via google (googling the website and clicking the link) and I have also given her the details of Old Skool Chat page and she has put the page in her web browser but still nothing. Any ideas peeps?
Admin Mk2Jo Posted December 4, 2009 Author Admin Report Posted December 4, 2009 actually, Ali has just text me to say that Kieran has now managed to get onto the site on their main computer Maybe they haven't paid the bills ...or perhaps next door have turned off their wi-fi
SmokeEm Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 This happened to Shell's laptop the other day - we cleared the cookies and all is fine again
Admin Mk2Jo Posted December 4, 2009 Author Admin Report Posted December 4, 2009 This happened to Shell's laptop the other day - we cleared the cookies and all is fine again It wasnt the cookies thing ... they did all that and more - fook knows what it was
PIG Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 i had trouble getting on late last nite and this morning for some reason as well,i deleted cookies etc last night but didnt work.logged back on again a while ago and it worked 1st time
oddball Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 Well I still have not sorted it properly The laptop still says 'no' every time we try to log on,I can view the front page and all of the other pages but as soon as I click forum it comes up 'Bad Request' On this computer we all have our own accounts so Kieran was accessing it via his, when I come to go on mine which is firefox had exactly the same thing 'Bad Request' I have had to change the internet browser to msn and can now get on Anyone got any ideas whats happening?

Admin Mk2Jo Posted December 4, 2009 Author Admin Report Posted December 4, 2009 Ali ... did you do the delete cookies thing on your username as well? Not sure if it would make a difference or not though

That is EXACTLY what happened on Shells the other day - we deleted cookies & history and it was fine again
oddball Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 [That is EXACTLY what happened on Shells the other day - we deleted cookies & history and it was fine again deleted the cookies and all the history, turned the computer off and back on again, run a virus check,run a malicious tool thingy and nothing works
Mrs O/H/C Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 Used to happen to us all the time when we shared a p.c and it was so annoying having too many usernames on the 1 p.c for the same web page can do this As said above , clear all cookies and temp int folders. Computers...love them most of the time but when they have a hiccup its SO frustrating. Hope you get it sorted Ali
Admin Vista Posted December 4, 2009 Admin Report Posted December 4, 2009 I get this from time to time too and like you, every other site continues to work fine Never have got anywhere with trying to work out why.
Mrs O/H/C Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 oh and 1 more bit of advice ...use a very big Hammer if all else fails
oddball Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 Fook knows then not very helpful looks like we will be all fighting to go on this computer tonight
oddball Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 oh and 1 more bit of advice ...use a very big Hammer if all else fails mmmm think Kev would have something to say if I tried this
oddball Posted December 4, 2009 Report Posted December 4, 2009 Got them both working now On the main computer The clear recent history was set to 'last hour' altered it to 'everything' And now we can use Firefox again The laptop was not deleting the password setting changed it to delete all and everything is back to normal
