Hi GG,

This must suck ass for you...

Below data not another complaint - just info that may or may not be useful for you on Monday.

Here's the behaviour I'm getting:

I do a submit with all fields filled in, and get a cannot find server error.

Interestingly, if I do a 'detect network settings' I am then taken to the error page for linkadmin1 - the one that says 'error - your submission could not be accepted for the following reasons...' blah blah.

If I go back and remove, say, my name from the fields on your submit page, I don't get a DNS error. Instead I get the error page that says 'your name is required'. Same happens, basically, if I remove the data in any one of the fields.

That pretty much sums it up. One thought - I may be talking out my ass - but one thing to check might be the redir after submit. Generally takes you to greenguysboard.com - perhaps something on that?

Anyway - I hope this data is helpful. Of course, you could always try this: |chainsaw|

[Greenguy]

I think it's having trouble writing to the files - almost like the permissions are being changed randomly (which is not the case BTW)

If you leave a field out on the form, the page itself tells you the problem by showing the error from the script.

I just basically sit here & when they come up in the admin

I tries submitting today with the same results either a dns or a 500 internal error page. I switched from dsl to dialup. FYI the isp I use is Earthlink.

Cheers,
Steve

any luck greenguy on submit problem

thanks

[Verbal]

No luck here.. I tried Monday night for about an hour.

[Greenguy]

I was gonna ask you guys - LOL

Richard found an error, corrected it, it was fine for a few hours, then we got the errors again, so he went back, found another error.......

Long story short, the way it's set up, the fucker shouldn't be working at all - LOL - but it is 75% of the time, so we are baffled.

Richard put a debugger in there to check for errors & report them back to him.

If that doesn't work, he might do a complete re-install which is a huge pain in the ass when you factor in there's almost 4 years of data in there.

[codymc12]

Still down for me. Full reinstall? That would suuuuuuck!

|shocking|

[plateman]

if it works 75% of the time the 50 or 60 times i tried over the past days maybe 10 or 20 times will get through now lol

[plateman]

i just tried at least 15 times firet 10 i got dns 2 or 3 500s then dns i got your answer do you know what a ford hammer is for stuff like this lol

i can give you url and put link on lol

ps i am so tired of typing in description, that i been just hitting
some keys lol sorry about the humor sometimes you just have to laugh about it

[Steve]

I tried submitting four times. Twice I received the can not find server error message and the other two times I received the 500 error message.

Steve

[Fonz]

Just put about 50 records in Richards debugger, hope he can do something with that |afro|

[Greenguy]

All I can say is that they are working on it - LOL

The last ICQ I got from Richard said simply "Totally freacking bizarre!"

[Greenguy]

Problem should be solved (but I have said that in the past - LOL)

Let me know if you can submit or if you get an error.

[plateman]

sorry same thing

thanks i even refresh page and started over

thanks

[codymc12]

I just tried - I get a DNS error in IE and a 500 error in Netscape. Probably just a difference in how each browser handles it.

But still can't submit.

[codymc12]

addendum - I did a refresh in Netscape and got a 'the document contained no data'

refresh in IE gives me the 500 Internal error repeatedly.

[Verbal]

Still getting errors here too.

I'm using IE.. and I get both errors.
I get the 500 Internal Server Error 80% of the time, and the DNS Cannot Find Server error 20% of the time. Roughly..

[plateman]

hey gg has anybody been getting through or is a small # of people

i keep trying, man when you get it working, you will have a list as long as the ohio river

thanks

[Steve]

Sorry. Same thing for me also. I am still getting can not find server or 500 error messages every time I try.

Steve

[plateman]

I submited so many times I feel like a fetish slave

LOL |rasta|

[Greenguy]

Damn it!

I am getting submits - a little less then I am used to getting, but still enough to update every day (added 69 new links today)

[plateman]

that dont make any sense gg
