Since the forum is now moved to France, i hope they do not ban posts or users discussing about hijab/niqab. ;D

 

['Abd Al-Maajid]

Only I am facing database writing issues or there are others as well? The issue is not resolved yet, Beardo.

 

[aadil77]

whats going on? everytime I come on here its like going back in time, posts are weeks old and the whole place seems empty

 

[SFatima]

I have been unable to access the froums for the past 3 days, saturday, sunday monday. Tried all day, the empty google page shows up where the site cannot load, even now I have been trying to refresh the page and it took around a 100 times of refresh to load :/ whats up with that? is this forum being hacked/firewalled/ made inaccessible??

 

[Insaanah]

Same here.

It's been over two weeks now that I can't access the forum for at least a few hours every morning, a few in the afternoon, and then intermittently outside of those times too, when it works if you keep re-loading/refreshing.

 

[Ramadhan]

Aaahhh... that explains why there have been much fewer members and guests visiting IB lately!
The past week must have been a new record low.

I have had no such difficulty, but there have been posts written and posted but not displayed.

Salams

What ISPs are you all using?

there has been no server problems at all its been up non stop for the past 11 days without any downtime at all

[root@box etc]# uptime
21:04:22 up 11 days, 23:25, 1 user, load average: 0.02, 0.04, 0.05

also could some of you do a tracerroute and post me the results

start > cmd

type
tracert islamicboard.com

and also what time exactly are you finding it inaccessible UK time?

 

[-S-]

Also if you find you cant access it could you all go to
http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ at the same time its down and have a look at the results to see if its down for you or everyone else

 

['Abd Al-Maajid]

Issues with database is resolved? However i didn't face any issues accessing the site lately.

 

[-S-]

yeh DB issues sorted long time ago there shouldnt be any

but problem is people seem to have issues accessing the site??

"Unable to resolve target system name islamicboard.com"

what time exactly are you finding it inaccessible UK time?

Varies, but typically 7am - 11am/12 pm, then in the afternoon, say 2pm for an hour or so. At these times refreshing doesn't work either. Outside of these times, it intermittently doesn't work, but if you keep refreshing, it does.

if it happens again could you immediately go to
and do a test from there?
