neowin problem


Recommended Posts

i can't take it anymore..

i constantly get MySQL errors and 404..

i wait a few minutes.. refresh and neowin loads.. i browse around, post here and there and each time it goes slower and slower until.. 404!!! IN YOUR FACE

and i have to wait another 3 - 5 minutes before neowin is accesable again. it has been doing this for 3 days :crazy:

i've used firefox, Avant, and IE.. all have the same symptoms and i've also tried clearing all IE related files (temp, cookies.. etc)

It isnt doing it too much for me. But i mean if it happened for an hour a day it still wouldnt be too much seeing at how often i come here....

Its getting somewhat ridiculous. I hate to complain as well, but the major downtime is really hurting Neowin.. a lot of members are leaving because of it. If I was a fairly new member, I would probably switch over to another forum as well.

The error is "CANNOT FIND DATABASE NEOWIN_IBF" then you refresh and it works!

Its like the database just disappears.. :unsure:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (11) in /home/neowin/public_html/forum/sources/Drivers/mySQL.php on line 67

There appears to be an error with the Neowin.net database.

You can try to refresh the page by clicking here, if this does not fix the error, you can contact the board administrator by clicking here

Supposendly too much mySQL connections. Got that errors all the time the last hour. And when I managed to get in, there were only 100 guests and like 60 members. Yet another DDOS?

/me still thinks its the switch from SCSI to SATA.

That would probably be it. SATA and EIDE generate a lot of interrupts to get work done. It's fine if you are transferring large blocks but it gets rather beat up easily when asked for a lot of small data bits. SCSI is much more proficient in this area.

Neowin is dead, long live Neowin.

I doubt this will post...

The reutrning errror is not "Too many Connections' for me.. its "Cannot Find Database Neowin_IBF"

then i hit refresh and bam neowin appears! :unsure:

Nah, for me it was dog slow for a certain period, dropping me the too many conns 80% of the times. The other 17% it didnt respond at all, and the remaining 3% were luck to see something.

It does it too often...it ****es me off :angry: :angry: :angry:

IT DID IT WHEN I WAS ORIGINALLY POSTING THIS!!!!

Instead of whining about it, I shall keep screenshots of when it does it.

Remember, GMT+10:00

That screenshot looks exactly like what I get with FireFox.

^agreed :yes: It's getting really bad now, when looking throught the forums if you open a couple of topics it jsut seems to take so long anf half of the time it eventually times out.

How the situation can be resolved
