When I came online today, this is the message I got:

I've had this pop up a couple of times over the past few days. I've also had trouble with LVI moving verrrrry slowly around those times when it would let me log in. Is it just me? Nobody else has mentioned having any sort of problem...

I'm not having this problem with any other site and all of my anti-virus/anti-spyware/anti-adware/anti-everythingbadware

aren't showing that I'm infected with anything.

Just thought I'd ask...while I'm able to get here!

lol. Don't worry, that just means our server can't handle its load. It *should* always clear up within an hour or so. Direct hate mail to ipowerweb.com.

Thanks, E! You know me -- paranoid is my middle name!

Glad to hear it's not my computer having one last mental breakdown or anything!

Don't worry alienangie, just a little glitch.

Don't worry guys, from what I can see...and the little I learned in school...it's a minor problem and can be fixed easily. When you see that message it usually means that something is going on with the server or the database. I believe the main site is in PHP so it relies on database connection, so if something goes wrong with the database....you see that message.

The reason that the forum isn't affected is because the forum runs off a totally different database than the main site. I'm pretty sure that's what's going on. And I'm sure E will fix it....he's the site magicman.

Okay, LOL....that was like Web Maintenance 101

Yeah, i have been getting a similar message, except the background from the page is still showing up.

And Angie, if you go to the video's section of the forum you can see if anybody has commented on your vid.

If quiet means 'full of complete cr*p' then yeah, that sounds about right....

how long has that error been up for now?

I notified E just in case it is something.

It seems fixed now, Warren. Sometimes that stuff fixes itself. Like I said, it could have been the servers. But E could have swooped in like Spiderman and fixed it already.

If it was you E....you the man!!!

nope I don't think it was

he's still offline at least.

That's good news though, it means it wasn't anything dangerous

yay!

lol. no spiderman action going on. F4L is right, it's a DB error. Our ISP limits our DB connections and our vids DB is seperate from our forums DB. if this keeps up, one thing we could do is optimize LVI to make less DB hits.
