Problems with WHT?

[Barbara]

I'm getting this error on almost every link that I click there.

Problem Report
The system detected HTTP Error Invalid Request while attempting to fulfill your request.

Message ID
REQUEST_INVALID

Problem Description
The system did not accept the HTTP request.

Possible Problem Cause
Either a misconfiguration on the Web Security Appliance, or a malformed request generated by the browser.

Possible Solution
Contact your Web browser technical support team if the problem persists, and provide the team your account information.

Is it me or them?

[Dapon]

I was just there and it worked fine or me. I am not a techie so I can't help you any more than this. Sorry.

[Barbara]

So it must be me, huh? I just tried again. I get the above error message when I try to read a topic, but if I do a Refresh, then the topic comes up. However, I can't post at all because I get the above error message each time. I'm not having this problem with any other forum that I'm visiting today, though.

[Dapon]

Look at the bright side, the better forum is working.

They have been having ongoing problems with their DB, so it may be related to that. Best bet is to mail moderators@webhostingtalk.com and ask.

[jolly]

Seems like browser problem.

I haven't been able to get there for days (not that that is a bad thing!) I can not even get the page to load, server not found.

Karen, did you do a trace route from a server on Tera-Byte? Or do you have a Dial Up account with Tera-Byte? here is my Trace:

Trace complete.

[Karen]

I did a trace from several sites in Canada (where I am) only one went through.. I just posted that one from Terabyte since it was the last one I did.

[Dapon]

I've been trying to post a reply there all weekend and keep getting a time out.

[Chicken]

I've had problems there lately as well. Forum index page loads up fine, but if I can get to a forum, that's another thing. 2 out of 10 times I can. Sometimes it just seems clogged. If it was like it is currently, when I was modding there, I would have gone crazy.

[Toolz]

Apparently my IP address has been banned. A bit pointless as it's a dial up IP and I must be sharing it with half the country. Never mind...

They've been having problems with their database all day today.
