| Is Ubuntu Forums down? I was in ubuntuforums.org early this morning, but for the past 4 hours or so I can only get stale pages. This is occurring on both Win XP and Ubuntu and from all browsers I have tried (FF, Opera, Chrome, and MSIE). The main page of the Forum tells me that I am the only user logged in.
Would someone please look at the site and let me know if they are getting current content? Thanks.
Tim

Pelham, AL | Odd. I am logged on to the ubuntuforums channel on freenode, and lots of people are having the same problem as I.

I took a look at the Ubuntu forum. I don't run Ubuntu so I don't have an account there, but I couldn't find a post less than 9 hours old. In fact, almost all the different forums said the last post in each forum was 9 hours old. The ones that didn't report that time reported times consistent with rarely used forums, as in days or weeks old.
That 9 hour timing is too consistent to be normal forum behavior. |

When I checked it about 8 a.m. CDT this morning, the users list showed that I was the ONLY person connected; normally there are several thousand at least. I also noticed that almost every thread's last message was repeated from 3 to 5 times. I concluded that the gremlins were at work, disconnected, and have not been back to check it out since.
I don't log out; I just stay logged in and may access it from any of my LAN boxes since all go through the same WAN IP...
I just checked back in and it seems to be working, but it claims that I last visited 45 minutes ago. The active users list was back to normal, with 13,476 on line at the moment. Perhaps they got it fixed.

Yeah. Time since last post is now normal for a working forum for me too. |

Now that ubuntu forums is acting in a sane manner, it seems the physical move of the dslr servers has caused this site to go a little crazy. C'est la vie |

| We have always been a little crazy. System issues simple add additional entropy. |

Sorry, during that time our slave database server was acting really wacky. All seems to have returned to normal soon thereafter. Sorry for the inconvenience.
