Downtime

[Clive]

We experienced some difficulties with the forum tonight at about 7pm which resulted in the site being unavailable for a while

We think the problem has been fixed, it took a while as database had to be rebuilt but are still investigating the cases so we can ensure it doesn't happen again

Sorry for any inconvenience that this may have caused this evening

What device are you using please?

It is most likely your device is using the cached page you were on when the forum went down, either try just turning your device off and on again, if this does not work, then clear device cache, and again re start device.

Laptop , I can get it working ok but not by the normal methods , if I click on house top right I get new posts

Sorry I’ll stop now

Now now, dont you go worrying folk, whatever device or browser you use will have the option to remember saved passwords, and give you the option not to delete those.

If anyone ever forgets their TFF password, and needs a re set, please contact me on [email protected] and I will re set with a temporary pw, which you then change to one memorable to yourself.

No, you’re right, I was just winding him up !

OK Browser(chrome/opera/firefox etc) go to settings > clear history > and you should find similar to this uncheck all other than cache & clear.

 

[Pilgrimmick]

Think there are a few similar threads going that could be merged?

some do not stray into this section...

 

[Philip Watkins]

it's not quite so simply as "just switching" anything but yes if we had not have been able to find and fix the issue we would have had to move to a back-up as a last resort

It’s not my problem and everything is running again but don’t you run master and hot slave system, just run the script to swap to slave and rebuild at leisure.

Sorry, not quite sure what you mean here.

I meant, if you were viewing OT section last night when the forum went down, your device will 'remember' that last cached page, so, until you clear that cache, you will still keep getting the error.

 

[sawdust]

I was just about to suggest that!

Take note @sawdust

Good lad
