Report forums issues! [1/2]

[Mark Vollmers]

I have not been able to reply to a message for the last few days. I am using IE 5.5 on an NT station, and when I click on the reply button (or even when I go to view some threads), I get a "page cannot be displayed" error. It does not load with a refresh. I had to go to netscape to post this response! It doesn't happen with every thread I try to reply to (or view), but it has happened on enough of them to warrent reporting it.

I don't know if this is the right place for this or not, but I have a feature request, actually two of them. Firstly, once you have logged into the forums, can you make a link of your name where it says "Welcome, Joe Schmuckatelli" and link it to your page which shows your points and recent contributions?

Secondly when you go into a forum as the author of the original question, could you create a droplist by each users name which will allow you to easily assign points?

Hope this helps.

Hi!

This morning I got "404 Object not found" and "Error processing SSI file '/cm/HomeContent/1,1151,LoggedIn,00.html'" errors.

Bye, Thomas

I've read Patrick Wallek's reply, and I fully agree with him. Awarding points to the people who spent some time in solving your problems is the least you can do.

HP is encouraging everyone to use the points system, but still many replies remain pointless (i.e. without points ;).

Maybe a limit could be set to the number of questions that can be posted, without awarding points?? (play it hard Sam :)

I just got a error 404 after replying to a post... and would add the the access seem to have slowed down in the afternoon (GMT time) by a ratio of 3 these couple of days...

Good luck

All the best

Hi,

I just got an error about 'object not found'.

Some minutes later I got IE going to DR.Watson.
Now everything goes well again.

I encountered this already for some time just after a reply to a message.

Hi,

After submitting a reply, I was not able to reach the acknowledgement page. The following error

IE page error: "The page is not found"
URL: http://forums.itrc.hp.com/cm/PostAnswerTrxn/1,1172,0x6786dfe5920fd5118fef0090279cd0f9,00.html

Refreshed 2 times to no avail. Submission was only successful after returning to the previous pre-submit page (back button) and re-submit again.

Regards.

Hi Laurent,

While trying to submit my previous posting, I encounter the same error condition:

IE: The page cannot be found
URL: http://forums.itrc.hp.com/cm/PostAnswerTrxn/1,1172,0xf86bdfe5920fd5118fef0090279cd0f9,00.html
IE version: 5.00.2920.0000

Hopefully the submission for this post works without the need to click the back button. It appears that this problem occurs pretty consistently.

Let me know if I am missing something. TIA. Regards.

Hi Laurent,

This time round, using the back button and resubmission does not work as before. However, the error is different.

IE: Error: The following URL cannot be retrieved
URL: http://forums.itrc.hp.com/cm/PostAnswerTrxn/1,1172,0xf86bdfe5920fd5118fef0090279cd0f9,00.html

Retried till the fourth time before the submission went through successfully. I also observed in the acknowledgement page that there are four zeros above the header. Usually, I either get one zero or no zeros at all.
==
0 0 0 0
reply to message - acknowledgement

Btw, what does each zero actually mean? Is it a debugging code?

TIA. Regards.

Just now when trying to log in I got this error...
I have to try four times to get to this page.

Hi Laurent.
This morning problems all over the place.
First i could not get into the forum
( logged in Germany # 1200038603 ).
Then several pages returned messages like unknown page, then missing permission, then the page. It has become worse. Even when i tried to open this message i got the following error message abut 10 times :
Error processing SSI file '/cm/QuestionAnswer/1,1150,0xf86bdfe5920fd5118fef0090279cd0f9,00.html'

[Marcel Boon]

Hi Laurent,

[Thierry Poels_1]

hmmmz,
things are really going bad today :
- I get a 'Not Found' for almost every link, most of the time fixed after 1 or 2 retries
- sometime a 'Not Authorized' error ?!

[Bill McNAMARA_1]

Lots of problems today..
lots of 404s, it was real good yesterday
(apart from the reboot!).
What disks are you using.. can I suggest the
HVD10 Solid State drives? Up to 100X performance increase for heavy hit sites!

Later,
Bill

[Paul Alberts]

Lots of "404 Not Found" over here this morning.

The search feature from the HPUX forum just went toes up. No search is working (even on *my* name of all things ;) ).

You can give me 404's, you can give me SSI's, but deny me access to my deathless prose? Unthinkable!

[Michael Lampi]

For whatever reason, I have been unable to log in to the forums using MS Internet Explorer 5.5 for over a month now:

Hewlett-Packard regrets this service is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.

Netscape seems to work, however.

Does Vignette StoryServer come with any load-balancing or load-distribution features?

It is really frustrating today ...Got this error when trying to post.I am using the LAN to access net through a proxy.

Error processing SSI file '/cm/QuestionAnswer/1,1150,0xaea953921f1ad5118fef0090279cd0f9,00.html'
I need to redo 5 or 6 times each transaction or click then i get through .
This no of retries seems to be predictable If you fail once ...try again and you will fail ..:-)

This morning I had 2 ssi error to start the day:
forum home:

And this thread:
Error processing SSI file '/cm/QuestionAnswer/1,1150,0xf86bdfe5920fd5118fef0090279cd0f9,00.html'

I suppose I have a bad karma today...

Good luck
