    Hi,
    I am having problems accessing boards.ie, this morning, last night and friday, i have the forums that i visit most often on Favorites, and when i click to down load them, i get this
    There seems to have been a slight problem with the database.
    Please try again by pressing the refresh button in your browser.

    An E-Mail has been dispatched to our Technical Staff, who you can also contact if the problem persists.

    We apologise for any inconvenience.

    I hit the refresh button 3 times and nothing, i eventually got in by typeing boards.ie in the Address Bar,

    Is something wrong with the system or has it something to do with the, *marines were leaving* , it said there that the staff of boards.ie were moving to a new server, is that Correct ?

    Keep up the good job guys, this site is the best ever,

    I think anyway,

    Regards netwhizkid

    Happened to me twice over the last week, thought it was just my PC, but this morning I have to refresh every page a few times before it loads properly.

    Yeah, its an MySqlD problem (afaik, Regi has been away for a good bit of the weekend and Xor is at a conference).

    We thought we had it nailed yesterday and it was fine for a while but its come back this morning. (Maybe Boards doesnt like mornings).

    Well get it sorted, meanwhile you *could* go visit the big blue room with the bright yellow bulb for a change :)

    It started around 3 AM last night after the site seemed dead for about 10 minutes. Someone mentioned that a log parser or something runs at 3 am and maxes out the CPU for a while ... as soon as things were back to speed the database errors kept appearing so perhaps they have something to do with that?
