[Only Topic] My forum won't load

Hi, my forum won't load, while another forum I'm member at loads.


This is the forum when it doesn't load.

Spoiler:

And this is the forum that loads.

Spoiler:

Made an Only Topic.

Hello,

The problem should be fixed now.

A DNS change has caused this problem. Now, the base DNS configuration has been restored.

Please clear your cache and cookies and check if this issue is fixed, as it should be.

If it's not, here are some different operations that can help to fix the issue :

• Close your browser
  
• Reboot your Internet connection
  
• Clear the DNS cache with an ipconfig/flushdns process (How to do this ?)
  
• If that still doesn't work, save your current DNS info somewhere else and try to change temporarily your DNS for the DNS provided by Google (How to do this ?)
  
  If after all these operations, you still have the loading issues, please provide us :
  
  
• The forum(s) concerned
  
• A screenshot of the error message
  
• Your ISP
  

Thank you very much to all of you for your patience

Can you please remind your forum's URL ?

It loads fine for me.

Do you have this issue each time you try to access the forum ?

Yes. And also it won't loads other forums too, while it loads other. I tried on different browsers, I cleared my history. It loaded fine yesterday.

Sorry for me bumping into the conversation like that, but where I live (Germany) I can't access any of the forumotion forums, no matter which one and I've tried it several times...

I could only access this support forum, I think we have the same problem here, because I tried to access the forum that viankova posted the link to and it doesn't work for me either....

however the forums worked fine about an hour and half or something ago

Same here. And Polish speaking.

OK thanks for your report.

Are you all using a proxy ?

I don't know.... how do I tell if I'm using a proxy or not?

I don't know How to check it?
More: my gfs computer won't load your forums, neither my friend's will.

I'm not. At least according to the setting of Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox.

Anyway - if I and other forum users have to change their proxies and other polish proxies are not able to connect to my forum, maintaining it loses its sense... It is a Polish RPG forum, so it should be accessible by all interested people who are Polish (methinks). We, who have already registered, can change our proxies, but my forum needs newblood... Without it, it will fall within months (I should know I am running PBFs since 2007)...

If you were using a proxy, you should have set it up yourself. So I assume that you don't.
But maybe your ISP is using a proxy server.

Me personally... I didn't have that connection problem yesterday or this morning. Or the days before that.

Please keep calm, I'm just trying to find a common fact between all the cases, nobody told you that you can't use a proxy with our service.

The techs are trying to know where can be the problem as we can't reproduce it on our side.

Oh and Leeloo... I have access right now. Had access several times ago, but then it's again. Maybe that info helps, too.

I'll be back later, gotta take care of something in RL now. Maybe it works later again.

I had that kind of problem a few times in the past that the forums weren't accessable for a short period of time, but then they were working just fine again. I'll just wait and see what happens I guess.

OK thank you

@Leeloo: I am calm o.o
I am just highlighting that changing or switching off proxies is not the solution in my case Chill...
Sorry for my grammar though (maybe that showed I might have been angry) I haven't spoken or written in propper English for some time now...

I am unable to connect as well from the US , Im not using any proxies and it just went down this morning. Also this forum went out for a couple minutes as well then came back.

*strange, my last reply didn't show up*

Anyway, I am from holland and I am having the same problems. It started 2 hours ago, and neither I nor my friends from China, Korea and Indonesia can't open my forum, or any other forumotion forum for all that matters. It worked fine 2 hours ago o.o

lot of users cant load www.sangeethasangamam.com error message
Server not found
Firefox can't find the server

Anything you've done right know - it worked. Thank you. My forum is working properly right now

No problem what's the deal with panicking now anyway? It won't help any of us.
Btw, I do get the forum loaded for several minutes before it's down again. Maybe that info helps with the search.

I'll be checking in later again. Have to take care of something in RL now.

All the forums I'm part of now load. I don't know what was the problem, but at least I can load them now.

I will post here again if any of the forums I'm a member stops loading again.

Mine started again for awhile too then gone again , Also i just realized i cant see any of the avatars used in this forum but while my forum was loading i could see the avatars.

Furthermore , Ive been trying to upload an avatar on this site for abit now and im unable to do so. I was having this same issue with my personal Forum. I cant upload from my computer or URL it just gives me a broken image.

Glad it's fixed for some of you !

We can't find any servers error on our side, but the techs are still trying to see what causes the loading issue.

Hi!
I have a same problem (server not found), I can't open my forum: http://xmenreneszansz.hungarianforum.net/ or other except this help forum.
I don't use proxy, and I can't open my laptop or my ipod neither... And I tried 2 different browser (firefox and safari).

My forum won't come up either.
http://raps-graphics.forumotion.com/
I get the Yahoo 404 page not found message.

*Edit: My site comes and goes...

Okay. Still doesn't work for me though... I'll see if clearing my browser temps will do the trick, but I rather doubt it... until it works again, I'll just hang out at my favorite place... SKYRIM

Again it broke down
Maybe there are some hacker-trolls aiming your host?

EDIT:
Fresh news: for some of my friends forum works as usual, for others it doesn't. It seems to be some kind of interaction between computer settings and forumotion settings or something O.o
