Title: Problem with forum? Post by: The Leprechaun on October 08, 2012, 04:05PM I don't know what exactly happened, but recently I was having problems with the forum. I wanted to go to a different post and suddenly I found that I couldn't access the forum for some strange reason. I forgot to write down what it said that the cause was. Can one of the mods explain what happened?
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: Kevin R.I. on October 09, 2012, 12:42PM a few times I`ve gotten "resource limit exceeded....please try again later". IDK what that means but everything is usually okay after a few minutes.

I haven't seen it, but I'll get with our host and see what they say. Thanks for letting me know! aislin Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: Hubert on October 13, 2012, 08:30AM Aislin, who is it you are going to get with? ;D
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: aislin on October 13, 2012, 11:02PM Aislin, who is it you are going to get with? ;D :P Our host. I fixed it. aislin Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: MikeyK on October 14, 2012, 03:58PM Is this what you guys are seeing? I just saw it for the first time today.

Post by: Kevin R.I. on October 14, 2012, 04:01PM yep...that`s it and before it comes on the forum slows waaaay dowm...usually showing a buffering wheel...but havn`t seen it in the last couple of weeks.
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: Kevin R.I. on October 22, 2012, 03:53PM got the "resource limit is reached" this afternoon. The site slows to a snails pace...anything you click on gets " waiting for Celticwoman.com" for like 2 minutes then the " resource limit reached...please try later" comes on. After a few minutes, it returns to normal.
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: aislin on October 23, 2012, 08:07PM Yeah, I'm with ya. I see on the server end that we're tripping the alert, but it doesn't tell me why. The host and I are trying to puzzle it out so please hang in there for a bit.
aislin Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: aislin on October 26, 2012, 11:32PM Hey guys,
After getting together with our hosts, it looks like the problem we're seeing is caused by an upgrade to CloudLinux that balances out server usage and the uptick in traffic we're seeing because of the Christmas release and upcoming tour. There is another round of updates scheduled to hit our server next weekend that should give us a few options to try and limit our server usage without us having to change our hosting situation. So please bear with us a few more days and we'll try and get this all sorted out. aislin Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: Kevin R.I. on October 27, 2012, 06:21AM So indirectly, it`s a " good thing"....too many CW fans are inundating the forum :D
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: Kevin R.I. on November 01, 2012, 07:20PM got the "resource limit reached" message around 9:15 tonight and Chandler and I were the only ones logged on. :o Took about 5 minutes to return to normal.

I've noticed the times it has done that to me were on the "Add or Subtract" game. Maybe people are posting too fast? ??? Title: Re: Problem with forum?

Delete the forum's cookie and see if you're still getting the error. aislin PS: Please start a new thread if you have a new problem. It helps me to keep track of everything better. Thanks! Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: aislin on November 03, 2012, 10:51PM Ok guys,
I've flipped on CloudFlare which should, hopefully, fix the problem. If you see the resource error again, please let me know ASAP. Thanks, aislin Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: The Leprechaun on November 10, 2012, 06:50PM I don't know if this is a new problem or part of the same problem. Another time I tried to access the forum, it said no cached version is available. Is that the same thing or different?

Nothing to worry about unless you see it again. aislin Title: Re: Problem with forum?

Post by: aislin on March 03, 2013, 07:40PM So... that fix didn't stick all that long. *sigh* I'll see what else I can do.
aislin Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: urbanracer34 on March 11, 2013, 10:06PM I had just ran into a "Connection Problem" error when I was going to post in a topic. Something about having problems connecting to the database. JSYK.

Post by: Hubert on March 14, 2013, 03:11PM Sometimes when I click on "Show new replies to your posts" it shows none and yet there are some when I go back and check individual threads. This happens sporadically.
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: Hubert on March 16, 2013, 10:48AM It just happened again with the "Celtic Woman Phrase Game, Part II".
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: aislin on March 21, 2013, 07:09PM It just happened again with the "Celtic Woman Phrase Game, Part II". Hubert, Try deleting your forum cookie. Occasionally the time stamp on it can get messed up and that is what causes that. aislin Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: Hubert on March 27, 2013, 10:09AM Thank you. :)
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: littlecubspirit on April 16, 2013, 12:35PM Hi aislin,
I got a strange message regarding server errors last night, and screencapped it right away for you (http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8109/8656077960_f18edbf2c2_z.jpg) along with the time the error occured (http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8119/8656078392_ac4a6798ed_t.jpg) Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: urbanracer34 on April 16, 2013, 12:40PM I got the same message as Misha at around 8-9 PM GMT-6 NO DST, along with a Resource Limit Reached shortly before or after (I can't remember), during which I couldn't access the site for about 10 minutes.
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: littlecubspirit on April 16, 2013, 03:27PM James (Raving Meaviac) had noticed the site being even more suspiciously slow before this occurred, and I know it happened to him as well, I just happened to be the one who was able to get the most detailed information
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: AggieGuy on April 16, 2013, 04:16PM I saw that same error message as well, right at the same time.
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: Kevin R.I. on May 03, 2013, 05:37AM happened again yesterday afternoon.....the forum slows down to a snails pace, when you try to post anything , you get "waiting for Celticwomanforum"...then...the white page with "resource limit reached". I just turned everything off.
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: urbanracer34 on May 05, 2013, 07:13PM Got Resource Limit Reached messages again from 6:56 PM to 7:06 PM CST today. The forum was also inaccessible for 7:30 - 10PM CST yesterday, but CloudFlare was serving a backup. Is there something wrong with the box the forum is being hosted on? :( May be worth checking into. ;)
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: Emer Dreamer on May 05, 2013, 07:46PM I couldn't get in the site here from nine to ten CST. It was more than just a "resource limit "too .

Is there something wrong with the box the forum is being hosted on? :( May be worth checking into. ;) Yesterday afternoon, at some point, there was a HUGE fiber outage around one of the server facilities that our host uses. The host had to re route around that cluster of servers which means all the rest of the servers had to pick up the slack. The CloudFlare message started showing up when the fiber died and the limit messages are more on a broad scale and not us specifically while they're getting everything fixed. Our host doesn't control the fiber, when I asked them they told me it's under ATT's control so we're probably going to be seeing a few problems until Monday when their regular workforce is at work. Sorry, I know that's not helpful. aislin Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: urbanracer34 on May 05, 2013, 09:23PM Got Resource Limit Reached messages again from 6:56 PM to 7:06 PM CST today.

I've heard in the past of how big a problem it can be to repair fiber runs; Not fun at all, I'm sure the process to repair fiber hasn't changed in the last few years. Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: Kevin R.I. on May 08, 2013, 03:55PM 'Resource limit reached" at 5:50 Eastern on Wed. afternoon. Just before it happens, the speed of the forum sloooooooows way down.....takes 10 seconds of " waiting for Celtic Woman Forum" to post anything.
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: urbanracer34 on May 08, 2013, 04:27PM I had resource limit reached messages too, but I forgot the time. :(
Same side effect as Kevin, forum slows right to a crawl. Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: urbanracer34 on May 27, 2013, 09:26PM The forum has been up and down like a yo-yo tonight for me. Anyone else having the same issue?
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: AggieGuy on June 01, 2013, 08:33PM Seems like something is up. Got the "Website is Unavailable" error for a while and since then it has been slower than a 14.4k modem.
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: IloveyouSarahBurke!! <3 on June 09, 2013, 08:57PM Mine just did that too.... For about 10 minutes... it's back now :)
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: aislin on June 10, 2013, 12:40PM Hey guys,
Please let me know if you see any more of these. It looks like something somewhere has a glitch, from the speed the errors were resolved it looks like the host does know about the problem and is on top of it. But if we keep seeing them I'll get in contact and see if we can find a more stable fix. aislin Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: littlecubspirit on June 10, 2013, 01:25PM I had major issues and was off for about twenty minutes around the same time Sarah posted last night. So was James (Raving Meaviac) and I believe AggieGuy had issues as well
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: Kevin R.I. on June 10, 2013, 03:05PM I got "Resource Limit Reached" while gaming Sun. evening. The forum slows waaaaaay down first ...as you try to post, you get the buffering wheel device and " waiting for celticwomanforum"......when you see that, the next thing is "resource limit reached"...but it wasen`t for very long at all , and then the speed of the forum was back to normal. It lasted probably only 5 minutes.
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: GlenS on July 07, 2013, 09:41PM Aislin, who is it you are going to get with? ;D :P Our host. I fixed it. aislin Not fixed I get it a lot I tried to get onto the forum tonight for over 30 mins and couldn't always said Resource Limit Reached Thought you would like to know Thanks Glen Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: urbanracer34 on July 07, 2013, 09:44PM Got resource limit reached again between 9 and 9:10 PM CST. At 9:11 PM I was able to get on again. For me at least, it's in 10 minute bursts every few weeks at random.
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: urbanracer34 on December 11, 2013, 04:59PM Got resource limit reached error within the last half hour. :(
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: GlenS on February 19, 2014, 10:55PM Ya I got the same thing tonight at 10:50 pm
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: AggieGuy on February 22, 2014, 10:59PM Just ran into the Error 508 as well. First time in ages.
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: GlenS on February 22, 2014, 11:01PM had the same problem tonight at 10:50 pm
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: Lily Anna on February 22, 2014, 11:15PM Me too. I guess it affected everyone on the forum?
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: littlecubspirit on February 23, 2014, 09:32AM Yep. Me too. And this does affect everyone on the forum who tries to access it when that error is active because it is a problem with the server (big computer that has the job of running the website) and the amount of things it is being asked to do (help us navigate the website) or store (like all our posts). We see "Resource limit reached" when it gets overwhelmed and are able to continue as normal when the activity level between this and other sites calms down or is otherwise addressed by allowing more space.

We see "Resource limit reached" when it gets overwhelmed and are able to continue as normal when the activity level between this and other sites calms down or is otherwise addressed by allowing more space. Not entirely right. We are only allowed a certain amount of CPUs and bandwidth at any given time. If we start using more than that the server automatically locks us out so we aren't causing slowdown on any of the other sites on our server. So the entire server isn't shut down, just us. I'm going to have to talk with our host and try and see if we can find a way to either move us to a less crowded server or if we can buy more usage as we're starting to see the message with increasing frequency. aislin Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: littlecubspirit on February 23, 2014, 11:34AM Aislin is correct. My explanation was a little clunky but that is what I meant. Got the message while using my iPhone to access the forum this morning.
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: AggieGuy on March 04, 2014, 06:08PM Just ran into two different error messages.
Error 522 Ray ID: 10620b44906a0104 Connection timed out Error 524 Ray ID: 10620ad73da20104 A timeout occurred Title: Re: Problem with forum?

Error 522 Ray ID: 10620b44906a0104 Connection timed out Error 524 Ray ID: 10620ad73da20104 A timeout occurred Those are problems with CloudFlare which is, short version, a program that our server runs for faster content delivery. Those two errors mean that, for whatever reason, CloudFlare couldn't connect to the server. Nothing we did in other words, just a glitch the host had for some reason or another. aislin Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: Kevin R.I. on April 08, 2014, 03:19PM Tuesday, Apr. 8th...the forum is like molasses going uphill in January. After taking 15 min. to log in, each post takes "waiting for www. Celtic Woman forum ""several minutes.
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: leighlam on April 08, 2014, 06:43PM I wasn't able to get on at all from 5:15PM EDT until after 8:30. I got the cloud flare message at first, then cannot find server :-\

Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: urbanracer34 on April 08, 2014, 08:31PM Same here... Couldn't ping both CWF's Cloudflare AND the server directly: both came up as "couldn't find host"
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: AggieGuy on April 08, 2014, 10:17PM Something is defiantly up with Cloudflare.
Either the site wouldn't load, or it displayed a DNS error message. Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: IloveyouSarahBurke!! <3 on April 09, 2014, 02:45PM Me neither...
Mine just said there was an "error" Title: Re: Problem with forum?

Post by: Kevin R.I. on April 10, 2014, 05:46AM Apr. 10th 7:45 a.m. forum is super slow, then " resource limit reached".
Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: aislin on April 11, 2014, 09:55PM Looks like the server was just having some issues, if some of you were seeing DNS issues or Couldn't find host it usually just means either the server, or the server farm, was having an issue. It looks to be evened out today but if you see anything else, let me know.
aislin Title: Re: Problem with forum? Post by: Kevin R.I. on April 12, 2014, 06:22AM Sat. morning 8:15....taking up to 30 seconds of "waiting for Celtic Womam.com" to post....got "error522...timed out' once

Nothing major yet, just updated some info on the one show we know about.
Funny how now matter how long one runs a forum, there are always new things to learn. I know I still find new stuff on the forum I help moderate. |
