for the past few days on three different computers (work, home and school) the computer has been hanging up while in the process of posting using both IE and Firefox. A few others mentioned it in a EE thread yesterday.
I'll have to exit out of the browser but when I return the boards the post has posted don't know what's going on just thought I'd mention it.
if you need any more details to solve it just ask.
**I think bones is having the same problem
-
Yeah this sounds exactly what is also happenning with me. After I post it just hangs indefinitely. I am posting a lot less at work these days so I don't have a fair comparison though....
-
well I'm posting more on 3 different machines/connections and I'm noticing it
2 machine high speed connections
1 on dial up
it's happening pretty frequently at all hours.
-
too much traffic on EE most likely.

I'm on while you two wacky austrailians are at work. You know there's only like 7 users and 12 guest average online at that time.....
happens pretty much all different hours for me...
-
Is this still occuring? Many times last week I was doing some updating of the box which required some long compiles. This may have contributed to some of the delay. I haven't done a thing to this machine since Monday.
-
happened last night while I was at work. It hung up on me so I closed my browser. when I came back to the boards and went to the forum I posted in the thread it showed that I was the last person that posted but it was marked with the blue new thing.
I'm thinking it was iaround 3 A.M. North Carolina time
-
It's been ok for the last few hours. Yesterday it was doing it constantly.
-
I was getting this a lot the last few days. Still happening a little today, but not as much.
-S
-
it's been fine this afternoon
-
I am now hassle free and lovely. No more problems here.
-
Hanging again about 4 hours ago, but only for a few minutes.
-
I've been getting this problem off and on today. More off than on, though. Going in the right direction.
-S
-
This is happening to me too...I thought it was due to my new router/firewall but it happens at work now too.
Pretty annoying as it's hard to tell if the post has been entered without opening another browser window and checking...
-
still happening to me at night
-
It's been timing out on me all morning today.

Yeah, mysql has been a little cranky. It was driving up the I/O wait on the box. I just gave it a kick and seems to have calmed down a bit. We'll let it go for a day and see if it improves.
-
if now we'll take turns kicking it ;D
-
Is the MySQL problem related to EE posts not being added to your post count, or is that more deliberate mischief on the part of our benevolent leader?

Saint just wants to be loved. Send over Tommy. ;D
-
now my counters broken

now my counters broken
It's not broken, it's differently capable.

-
well then can I get an RMA for it?
-
Heh, saint was messing around with the EE forum. He turned off "count this forum in post count"
-
Shhhh, it's a secret! ;)
-
GOOD LORD this is frustrating!
Same shite is happening to me right now.
I waited so long for my reply to be posted, I just copied it (y'know, for when it was gonna get lost) and hit refresh, and was told a new reply had been added....IT WAS MINE!
Came here to tell you about it, posted a reply in this very thread, got an error message about "you've already posted this", which I HADN'T, and I most definitely HADN'T double-clicked my mouse either.
GAH!
-
and YET AGAIN with the having to refresh the very post above this one!
-
Seriously, I'm NOT trying to increase a friggen post count here, but it's getting silly with the forever-loading reply!
-
I've been having that problem all night also.....
-
It seems to happen around 3am here. Heavy traffic because everyone logs on at the same time upon arrival at their cubicle perheaps?

It seems to have fixed itself in the last hour or so....

/me does what he always does when technical issues arise. I roll up my sleeves, sit down at my keyboard, crack open my O'Reilly Linux administration book, and pull out the slip of paper in it with Woogie's email address on it.

3am EST is a daily server cleanup period. Most of the nightly items such as log custodian work, logwatch and other security cleanup, as well as a sync of the emerge system all happen around this time. I'll see if I can spread or speed up some of this. The high I/O is what is slowing down post and queries. I'm usually asleep by 3am so I never see it ;)

it seams like it does it at 3 AM North Carolina time too.....

3am EST == 3AM North Carolina time

Confirmed at 4 AM EST as well, delayed posting. Is it just in the 3-4 AM EST time frame you guys are seeing problems?
-
Strange stuff happenning in the last hour. Lots of hang ups, database errors, posting delays and older threads not getting bumped after being posted into.
Not winging, just giving feedback in case it is wanted......
-
Thanks for all the info. I'm working to organize the nightly clean-up so it doesn't overwhelm the machine. This may take up to a week to complete, so please bear with us.

I was talking Aussie 3am, which is about 7am in your neck of the woods.

Then why am I usually 10 minutes behind everyone else
