whenever i do searches it always times out...
i dont know if this is becuase of my browser or that i use a macintosh (ox) but its really a problem because it makes it so incredibly difficult when i try and take other sages advice and try to search for certain bits of lore buried deep in say Eds threads...
i can soemtiems search when i select "match any of the words" but idk
any help?
btw im computer illiterate so i dont know if i can really describe the problem well. |

Aye. I've been thinking much the same while I have been looking over the issue itself.
Hopefully more to come...

On the "search" topic, while I know we may have gotten to the point to where we just have a bazillion posts to search through and that has speared our ability to do it, I think the search function is an important thing to have working, if only because I think we have had several topics come up, over and over again, that may have just turned into a conituation of older topics if the search was done, or perhaps would not have been posted if the established thoughts of some of the regulars were already displayed from earlier threads.
Just a thought, and I know that this is a problem that is being worked on. |

Hmmm.

Yup. Four times in the last 15 minutes. |

It hasn't occured for the last couple of hours.
Has anyone else encountered the error again?

Well met
Indeed, there was a period of downtime yesterday for around 30 mins or so, as I observed. Apologies for the inconvenience. |

Also, when I tried to refresh the webpage, the message appeared:

Script timed out
/forum/default.asp
The maximum amount of time for a script to execute was exceeded. You can change this limit by specifying a new value for the property Server.ScriptTimeout or by changing the value in the IIS administration tools.
Strange, did anyone got this?
I was getting that error, too. I first got it at around 12:50 PM Eastern, and then kept getting it every few minutes for a half-hour or so. |

Curious. Running a quick asp script check doesn't show any Forum DB violations.
I'll run it again...

Yes, I've received the same message a number of times actually, since yesterday afternoon (my time) in fact. And early this morning (around 1:00 am), again my time, the entire forum was unavailable for just over half-an-hour.
I'm assuming our nasty little server bug is making its presence known again here at Candlekeep.

Aye,

Shadovar, I also encountered those words "Server Unavailable" and worse, when I exited the forum and tried re-entering the forum webpage again, the message was simply "The page cannot be found". |

Well met
Indeed, uncannily myself and the Sage have been in discussions only recently. I can only apologise for the inconvenience for now. Try refining searches if ye can. The database is getting quite large these days, mayhaps some archiving is in order. |

This has been a problem for quite some time; I'd suggest using Google to search the forums by appending site:candlekeep.com/forum/ to the end of a Google search. |
