Metropoulos Forum

lately i have been getting alot of "phpBB : Critical Error

Could not connect to the database " trying to load the forum. anyone else?

me too, it lasts about 5 minutes or so

Server glitches. We try to keep track of when this happens and for how long to report to godaddy. They are supposed to prorate and reimburse us for downtime.
It really doesn't bode well for their claim of 99.9% uptime.

I've also notice if I use the search feature and then click on one of the links in the search results and then try to go back to the overall search results I get a blank page, then I haft to keep doing a search each time to keep bringing up the same search results again and again. Also, the search feature needs to quarry a little better. If you do a search you generally get stuff that is no way related with what your searching for. And yes I get the same error as Mark and others get as well. I've wriiten paragraphs in the forum only to loose them to that error. Best thing to do before you hit submit is to copy your quote so you can re-paste if you get the error, otherwise you'll be writing again.

I get them too. If I close down the browser and re-boot the Metro website and then the forum, it wont happen, until the next time it feels like doing that again, which could be the next day, or the next month.
This has been happening on my computer for a while now.

Ive been getting tat alot but in a few minutes its usually back.

I have this forum in my favorites and sometimes when I try to get in It won't let me.Then I have to google the sight and then I get in emmediately...I know.....BFD
