forum 404 issues


Recommended Posts

In the past few hours I've been re-directed to a Neowin 404 page after clicking a link on the forum, even the forum index. Sometimes it redirects me to neowin.net/forum/install/index.php. Also, when those problems occur, clicking a link on the neowin frontpage takes me to a blank page.

This issue is now resolved. It happened for a second time just now due to me fixing the cause of the earlier issues, for which a temporary work around was put into place

I was getting giddy, because I thought the forum downtime was gonna be due to the Finity forum skin ;)

Alas, I was dissapointed :(

Me too, the forum was down for about 40 minutes. No explanation?

I think the forum is undergoing some changes... or preparations for the next big upgrade.

A lot of weird things seem to be going on...

Sorry, last I checked (this morning) we didn't have a good explanation as to what happened and we really don't want to pass rumors or misinformation onto you guys.

We had some glitches earlier today yes, but we seem to be fine now so hopefully we stay up!!

Neowin has hosted servers at Stardock from the last time I checked.. and I don't seem them needing Shared hosting, when they have dedicated hosting.

I was hoping this morning when it was down that it would come back with the new Finity theme :p

There's no reason to shutdown the board for a skin addition. They're added all the time, you just can't see them.

I can :shifty: Usually when the forum goes down, we come back to a special announcement introducing a new feature or something..

I think the forum members are more on the edge of their chairs then anyone else, over a forum skin :p
