Can't load RAF
« on: June 27, 2013, 02:06:27 PM »
So hey! Ever since I've been able to log on to RAF during the day again (ie the last month or so), I've noticed that there seems to be a period each day during which I'm unable to load the forum (or chat, apparently, as I found out today). It seems to last an hour or two- When I first saw it today it was just about 1pm CST, and it's now 1:55pm, and I've just managed to load the forum again (seems to be working fine now).

Most of the time, I receive a network TCP "connection refused" error. Sometimes, RAF seems to load, but it's exceptionally slow. On occasion, RAF will load but I'll get the 500 internal server error.

I don't have issues with any other website, and it really does seem to happen fairly consistently in the early afternoon (I want to say it's every day, but I'm not sure of that- it's often enough to give me pause, at least).

I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this happening. There's a chance it's a local issue I'm having (something I'm not aware of having to do with the company servers, maybe?), but it feels more like it's a issue with RAF or our host server.

Marie and Abby are my wonderful RAFsisters ^_^

I'm getting the 505 errors about once to twice a day also.

Ya, sometimes when I'm on my iPod it won't load and it give me a message saying "can not connect to server". It's happened a few times to me too.

Sooo... Scott, when you asked me about this awhile ago, I told you I didn't have a problem. <.< I lied. (Not intentionally. :P)

But yeah. Having the same problem. Got the 500 error earlier. Got just plain old "could not load the page" once or twice. >.<

These past few days the server is undergoing maintainance. The issue should be resolved on a few days. Sorry about this guys.

No worries ^_^ Good to know it's apparently a temporary thing, at least :P

[...] the server is undergoing maintainance. [...]

I suspected this, to be honest -- whenever it happens for me, I go about other, nonRAF business (or just write out more chapter synopsises).

Uh, server issues much? I've been unable to load the site a couple of times around now - that's 12:01 AM Indian Standard Time, neither from my phone nor my laptop. When it did load it was pretty slow.

Okay, I had issues logging on today from about ten this morning to about one fifty. I don't know if it was just me or not, because I don't know if it was just the wifi I'm connected to. If someone could let me kno of they dealt with the same thing, that would be great.

It was on Twitter - their host server had issues, so the whole of RAF was down.

Yeah, not just you, Abby. The whole forum was down for about five hours. Hopefully they've got whatever happened figured out. I can't survive for that long without my RAF >.<

True that. I was feeling quite lost without it. Normal people are so boring.
