This link does not work for me. All I want to do is browse back to look at some old threads.
http://openeuphoria.org/forum/index.wc?page=2&per_page=20
Also, I am still getting logged out when I go from work to home and vice versa. I though this was fixed, or is there something I need to do on my end?
I hate to keep nitpicking this forum, but when even the simplest things don't work right, it's kind of hard to use the site.

The link works fine here. I believe we are still suffering from the 500 errors due to process limitations.
Also, I am still getting logged out when I go from work to home and vice versa. I though this was fixed, or is there something I need to do on my end?
It's in the list to be fixed but has not been fixed yet.

Ugh. I tried to read your reply to this thread and that didn't work. A few F5's later and the page came up. Maybe this server, like me, is just having a bad day.

Indeed. Except that the server is having a bad day, every day, because it sucks.
Why isnt that fixed yet?

And yet I'm almost never having this problem. In fact, I can't recall the last time I had to press F5 to reload a page.
I'm pretty sure that it hasn't been fixed by now because we don't have the resources right at this moment nor more importantly, the permission from Rob to do so.
The pre-requisites for moving to a different server are:
- Permission from Rob
- Defining what a suitable server is
- Finding a suitable server host
- Paying for it
- Having the time the migrate and test the move.
- Implement the move
What part can you help with?

I counted about 30 that time (waiting 2-3 seconds between F5s).
Got it on video too!
Make that 31...32...33...34...35...

What are the specs on the current host, and what specs would be considered reasonable?
There are VPS server plans starting at around $7/mo.
And hey, I only had to reload twice to post this! (not including the additional 3 Internal Server Errors I got trying to edit this post)

The real problem behind this is that I have been one busy person this past week and a half and the problem is I am going to be busy for another week. Until then, I can only hope that not everyone has the same problems you do. I certainly don't.

I had to reload this 3x just to see who replied. It has been significantly out for at least 5 hours now.
This should have been fixed weeks ago.

No, it's not any code that is constantly crashing. No euphoria code is crashing. It is definitely the server run by the host that is causing our problems.
We share the MySQL database with other users of the host (because this required by the host) and when one of them doesn't play nice and hgos the MySQL server, that causes the 500 errors.
So if we could move to a new, better server (one in which we are not at the mercy of other random users of the host), these problems would go away.

So use a different db, don't use MySQL.

The host only supports MySQL iirc, and we aren't allowed to run our own db server. So even if we could use a different db, we'd still have the same resource sharing issue.

I have a wierd deja vu feeling. It's like all those times i had memory issues accessing huge databases, and i was told it was all my fault and my bad programming, only now the shoe is on the other foot. I mean, it's not your fault someone else is hogging MySQL, but at the same time i have a terabyte of data i can access thru the same hosting company. Not that it's on that host, but it travels thru that host, as needed. And i don't use MySQL.

Well, as you yourself admit, the issues we are having are not my fault or due to my bad programming.
Also, it is not a memory issue that causes the 500 errors.
It is a server issue. They are good for transferring terabytes of data and handling static web pages, but not so good as a SQL host. As I have been telling Jeremy, we outgrew this host long ago.
(As a side note, I think one of the reasons we chose a MySQL route was because we were low on disk space and were close to running out of room for new messages. The webhost sucks. And you yourself admit that you have not stored terabytes of data on the webhost....)
