Post by: Xclio on January 06, 2009, 06:36:33 AM
It is working again as you can tell by me being here however the redirect that you had setup no longer is functioning.

I removed the proxy filter that was up on the site.  Something changed with either my ISP or some connection alone the way.  It also seemed to be messing with my Verizon 3G account too.  I'll add back some of the other stuff when I can determine if it was my indirect proxy filter or the couple direct ones I had in place.  All that filter stuff has been up for months so I'm not exactly sure what switch flipped.

Lol @ Cerveza.

I don't think I'm doing much for the problem; my ISP must be doing some hardware upgrades and moving me around.  Just have to wait and see.  Once things get stable again, I'll put the redirection back up, but the mean time just be sure to connect to this forum via www.scriptuo.com/smf instead of directly to www.scriptuo.com.

I've got my doubts that it will be stable at this point.  Their "engineers" said there was nothing wrong, so I just set the redirect back and let them know there are still issues.   

Keep your fingers crossed that the gremlins are gone.  In the mean time I will see about transferring things to the new ISP.

I just found that if I keep "refreshing" the site, it will come back up.  So the underlying problem is waaaay out of my control.  jeez.

Ya me too! No breakthroughs, but every once in a while my ISP decides they just don't know how to host anymore.  It seems to happen 1/2 times a year.  They are totally over-sold and sometimes it shows.

Click reply - site works.

Type long reply and click post - site down.

Smash keyboard on table - site still down.

Scream at top of lungs - site still down.

Workers avoid you completely as you fume at your desk - site still down.

Click refresh - site works.

If you were using firefox, you should be able to use the BACK arrow to get back to your post. 

Also, I just did a test transfer of the site to the new host and it looks pretty good.  I'll have to choose a time when I can transfer the domain; probably will happen sometime this weekend.

One thing that I noticed is if you rely on the redirection to get you to the correct index i.e. www.scriptuo.com/smf, this will sometimes not redirect correctly.  However, if you modify any link you have to www.scriptuo.com/smf/index.php, this seems to work much better.  I still haven't gotten a statement from the ISP yet; they aren't talking at this point...

Well it seems to be getting more stable for me as the day progresses, which is making me much happier.

We'll see.  I'm kinda pissed the the current provider.  They changed how the re-direction seems to function now.  It's funny, at the new provider, everything was nearly automatic.  But it does make a big difference if you can point to the index.php.  Unfortunately the functionality seems to come and go still.

OK, this is the first try at posting after I yelled at just about every Indian-speaking employee at my ISP.
