server busy issue

[joraft]

Haven't been able to get onto the site for the last half hour. Been happening on and off all day for a minute or that

Same problem here, for about 15 minutes starting at 12:40 PM PST.

Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.

Thanks, John.

I think I have figured out the problem. Lets see how it goes.

Sorry for the recent issues.

I've just been janking up the forum to keep my job security.  [blink] [big grin]

No problem Shane. We all know your on the case and that your a very busy man helping everyone with their problems and running other sites apart from FOG  [big grin]

Sometimes I look forward to the day I croak, it'll be the first real day I have off in a long time.  [tongue]

Just remember, Shane, there ain't no pockets in a shroud.  That means you can't take your Festools with you, nor your cold beer...

Been there, done that. There's nothing like being a forum administrator and logging on to find a blank screen.  [smile]

We had a similar problem last year, we upgraded our service twice and the problem got better, but never completely went away.

Of course when our post count dropped to only a few a day the problem cleared right up.  [big grin]

It happened again for the last 45 mins  [crying

Back to the drawing board... Sorry for the persisting problems.

Could we set up a temporary panic room until this matter is resolved?

If this happens again, I will be temporarily disabling Tapatalk. I updated it with a newer version shortly before this started happening. There are some errors being generated by it which look benign but may be causing memory issues on the server. Just a heads up for anyone who uses the Tapatalk app.

I don't use tap talk shana but if I see it happen again ill let you know. Hopefully for everyone involved it won't happen again
