Server Error Reports

Thanks for testing.

I entered the thread from my usual bookmark which has the leading WWW. I didn't realize that had disappeared when I then maneuvered between the links.

But I think I've solved it now. In Firefox I've now used 'Forget about this site' on (www).eevblog - interestingly after that the cc-65 thread was still present in my history - likely as you pointed out it was missing the WWW - so I used forget about those links too and now after logging in everything seems to be working fine. And when using my same old bookmark the www now remains in the links.

Possibly another little server problem in that email notification of PM's does not seem to be working. 

Normally email notification of PM's is almost instant.......unless Gmail has some problem.

Anyone else seeing this ?

Yes your PM arrived without email notification which had me wondering and it might seem like my reply didn't get to your email either.
Poor gnif....isn't it like he has enough to do already !

Likely will need to reconfigure SMF as it treats the email notifications on the periphery so depending on where it was pointed to send from likely tweakage needed. I had a major  when I set up an SMF forum in the past on AWS because of this. So anyone suggesting Amazon as the solution here consider yourself pre

Anyone else seeing a broken Thanks button?

Only related to time out issues I think. Took maybe 10 seconds to get it done

My brain initially parsed that screenshot as saying "There was an error while thinking" - there are posts of mine where I could have made good use of that button. New feature request? 

And I could "thank" your message without any problems, and withdraw it without any problems.

Or are you just trawling for a little bit of extra approval after a hard week?

No, seems to be working just fine.

It always (for me), did that "error while thanking" thing, around 5% to 15%, of the time BEFORE the disaster/fire/reconstruction. But I just assumed it was an occasional poor connection on my part, or somewhat rare/minor problem with the EEVblog server.

[bd139]

Yeah was always borked randomly.

Also "insert quote" appears to periodically not do anything at the moment since the outage as well.

[AlfBaz]

Working fine here but its always displayed exactly that on the mobile version of the site

FYI, new account activation emails and moderator report email seems to be down due to the private network in the datacentre not back online yet. No ETA for that yet.

PM emails not working either.

Been getting session timeouts on reply -- think this was a setting, maybe just wasn't reloaded properly?

Until we get both servers back up we will continue to see such issues. GorillaServers did upgrade our hardware as part of the restoration however we are still operating on a single server, and the setup is not tuned to take advantage of the higher performance processors. I am continuing to tune the setup however we have to be careful to not overload the single server (process/memory exhaustion) as doing so would cause things to exponentially slow down. Each setting tweak needs 24 hours of verification through server metrics to ensure that during peak loads (Lunch in the US) we don't exceed the server's capabillity.

[SilverSolder]

I've noticed significantly better performance today, overall.  Looks like recovery is under way!

[gnif]

Unfortunately not yet, this is a result of server tuning

Another outage! Looks like power to BOTH of the current working EEVBlog servers was interrupted. Waiting for GS to explain this one.

Edit: Multiple reports on WebHostingTalk of others experiencing the same issue, servers powered off and needing to be manually turned back on via IPMI, etc... No news from GS on the cause yet though.

[SilverSolder]

I guess that after the backup generator burned, they are vulnerable to external power interruptions?

Forum PM email notification now working. 

[EEVblog]

Forum PM email notification now working. 

Yep, we had to revert back to the forum email system directly. So this may result in some systems detecting it as spam. But at least it's all working again 

[tautech]

Is there still some unsolved performance/speed issues Dave ?
Forum seems pretty snappy again.

The redundant server box still isn't fully operational.

Just FIY, not a big deal, but there is a bug I don't recall seeing it before:

- test between the "code" tags is supposed to remain verbatim, as typed, however
- if there is an URL address inside the "code" section, an "URL" tag is inserted automatically
- even when the message is edited again to manually remove the "url" tags, the "url" tag will appear again when published

For example, in this post https://www.eevblog.com/forum/fpga/arrow-deca-max-10-board-for-$37/msg3558204/#msg3558204 the url and slash url inside the "code" section were not added by me, then deleted, yet still there.
