JBG Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Well one problem. One used to get an email notification when someone replied to your posts. That stopped. Then, days ago, I stopped getting all e-mail notifications of replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcwxguy Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Site was down for me earlier today (multiple computers, cell phone, ect.) I was able to access several other sites at the same time so it wasnt my computer with issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wow Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Don't know. Could've been a local DNS server having problems. That happens to me sometimes with websites where I can't access them for a little while but seems to clear up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcwxguy Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 www.americanwx.com Driver Error There appears to be an error with the database.If you are seeing this page, it means there was a problem communicating with our database. Sometimes this error is temporary and will go away when you refresh the page. Sometimes the error will need to be fixed by an administrator before the site will become accessible again.

nwohweather Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Server must be overloading from a combination of pictures and users connected to the site. Happened all the time on Accuweather Forums until their traffic began to diminish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOD Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 It looks like the server clock needs to be reset since the server went down this afternoon. Posts are showing up at something close to UTC time instead of eastern time. See last few posts in main forum about Irene that should have gone in at 3:50 posted as 7:50 posts. Server must be overloading from a combination of pictures and users connected to the site.

LakeEffectKing Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Same with me....And based on the void of posts, this is an Americanwx.com problem!!! This isn't some local thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donsutherland1 Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 I was unable to connect, too. I saw a driver error message at one point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawnmov Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Looked like a database error earlier. The site had more hits over the winter during the blizzards (at least that's what one mod said earlier) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wow Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 I am suspecting it has to deal with an add-on since the winter that's going haywire, perhaps due to the large amount of traffic. But the traffic directly doesn't seem to be the problem as we're gone for long stretches with high traffic without a problem. I may have an idea which one it is and currently following that lead. Hopefully I'm right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoarfrostHubb Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Not sure if it should be here, but, no more Eastern Throwback theme? (or the wwbb or whatever it was?) Just temporary or forever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to coordinate all the skins together. It's offline, at least for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
