i know there have been server problems here and that they were supposedly resolved but i'm starting to get frustrated because it seems like every other time i try to access something here, i can't. either the forums or any of the links in the "manage your account" section or everything. it's actually happening right now. i can access the forums (obviously) but not my account, forum posts, or prvt messages. am i alone here?

I'm very sorry about the inconvenience. The RAID controller on the database server is acting up. Apparently RHEL has some issues with causing high IOWAIT on certain controllers.

I've trying to solve the issue for the last couple of hours, and at least for now it seems to be running better. Hopefully it will stay that way. =)

In any case it's time to catch some shuteye -- it's 4AM over here. I would appreciate it if you (not just fishbulb, but everyone) would post to this thread if you experience slow response times or errors. Thanks!

Not at all. An unresponsive site is rather frustrating to use. It's also quite frustrating to find out that solving one issue (server CPU/HDD performance) creates new ones (bugs in kernel, drivers and/or hardware). Hopefully I dodn't pop a vein before getting the site running smoothly for more than a week. =)

I've been monitoring the server for the last 30 minutes and it looks to be running OK. There's still something strange about the memory consumption, but I'll look into that at a better time.

Cheers!

The problem appears to be an overload on the server. I've noticed this problem happens in the evenings when most people are free to access the forum at the same time. Earlier in the day and late at night like now, about 1:30AM Eastern US, there is no problem at all accessing the forum and navigating around. Earlier tonight, around 8:30 to 9:00 PM Eastern US, I couldn't even log in. I'm wondering if the popularity of the AD site is putting a new load on the bandwidth of the system. Are we having too many people trying to get on at the same time?

Adjusted server settings some more to keep the connection pool from draining. Let's see if it helps!

Evening and I'm still navigating the site without a problem. Things are looking better for now anyway. I hope it stays that way for a while.

I wanted to make a copy of a movie I purchased; however, I get the following message:

could not load your drive information -please run the drive selector application.

Please tell me what to do. I am pretty new with computers.
THANK YOU.
