    In progress Can't Access Forum

    Post by Prisma*Illya October 1st 2013, 8:52 pm

    I'm having issues with my forum. I keep getting an "Internet Explorer cannot display this page" whenever I try to load this. It's been like this for several hours now. I've tried using my Kindle and our home desktop, but neither can load the forum. So I don't think this is just an issue with my PC. Can any admins tell me if something is wrong?

    Since apparently I can't post a link, the forum is:

    I'm having the same problem. I can't access my forum from either my desktop pc or my laptop or from any browser despite doing scans and clearing cache etc. Nothing is working.

    I guess it's not just me then. I hope someone can tell us what's happening.

    No, I get "Internet Explorer cannot display this page." It might just be that we're using different browsers. Obviously, I use IE.

    I'm getting the same problem too on a Forum that I'm an Administrator off. I thought it was just me, because my own forum is fine.
    My own forum is; http://nineelms.freeforum.me.uk/ (Working fine at the moment)
    The Forum I'm an Administrator of is; http://tsforum.freeclanforum.com/ (Not working and hasn't been all afternoon)
    Also forgot to add, that it is the same with Google Chrome, IE and Firefox on the non-working forum.

    Glad it's not just me and any settings!!:wouhou: 

    Thanks

    Andy

    It would be nice if some staff member would let us know something.. I expect if it's affecting several forums then someone must be working on it..

    When I try diagnosing the connection problem through my browser, it tells me something is wrong with the DNS. Anyone else get that as well?

    I'm not getting any DNS error message. As a test try the first link I sent you which is my forum and if that works try the second one.....

    Thanks! Very strange. I've contacted a user of the 2nd one via email and he says he can access it okay, yet another Administrator is having the exact same problems that you and I are having! Definitely not DNS issues! Shocked 
    Nothing could have changed anyway between me accessing it this morning and this afternoon. Nothing has changed on my Router and all my Laptops/PC's and phone can't access it......

    Basically the same issue. I managed to contact a member and they said they can access it, even though some images aren't loading and such.

    But as the admin I can't get on at all on my laptop, desktop, or Kindle. And I've restarted the router and everything. I was able to access it all last night till I went to bed around 2 AM. When I woke up at 9 AM today, nothing. I have no idea what changes between then and now.

    Yeah. Even though it's fixed, I don't like being kept in the dark.

    Oddly enough, I'm having the same problem on a forum I'm an administrator on. I doubt it's cookies/ip/mac related, but rather on Forumotion's side.

    Hello all,

    We got an unexpected problem with DNS. Confused 
    Now the problem is solved.

    We apologize for the trouble.

    Best regards
