I've started getting odd error messages about half the time I'm trying to access Kymcoforum.com. I noticed going back a few months(?) that this particular site was slow to load...and now I get error messages saying 'too many requests', server unavailable and today, 'insufficient storage'. I hit refresh and the site usually then opens.
Anyone else seeing these things? (this site is the only one I get these messages for...no other sites I visit online)
-
Same here once in a while.
-
just got a new one...
-
Administrator notified.

Yep. I see that one quite often too Hawk.
In fact I got this while trying to post this reply:

I got an error message every thread I clicked on this morning....I also noticed that my attached thumbnail pic I posted earlier isn't showing anymore. When I click on the pic attachment, rather than opening up the full size pic, it goes to download it...lots of glitches going on.
-
I get error messages the majority of the time I click on something...sometimes I have to hit the refresh button 5 or 6 times to get through.
Any word from the Admin?

The server side is suffering from lack of maintenance. The sys-admin needs to pay attention to the file load on the server since this happens when the SQL database and log files grow beyond limits. A forum like this grows continuously from user activity and needs to be pared down from time to time. Or else the site needs to rent additional space. The pen only holds so many pigs and then there starts this ungodly uproar!

ya I get similar messages, but usually goes thru on the first reload
-
it appears the problem has been fixed! No more error messages.

Hooray! The site has been unblocked. The admins may not have been aware that there was a problem. Somebody has to actually pick up the phone and make direct contact.
-
Picked up my (cell) phone, and texted admin. :)
Ordinarily response/fix/block from admin. can happen in as little at 5 min.
Longer this time.

Will send message again to administrator.
Getting concerned here, too.

Been on a few times over an hour or so this morning and, fingers crossed, no error messages so far... Yay!

JJJ is bang on the money, the forum is hitting the buffers of it's allocation; database, bandwidth, whatever;
I think I've mentioned this in the past but I work in IT in server infrastructure - I'm not particularly experienced in PHP - if the current administrator wants to offload it and if I can afford to run it, I'd be open to taking it on as a running concern. Too many great phpbb forums have been lost from the internet, with the treasure trove of information contained within.

I can't at the moment - but please try to contact the administrator on the members list, "administrator" with your ideas.
Thanks, Stig

It's now December, 6 weeks after the site started stumbling, and it's still suffering from lack of maintenance. Is there some other problem behind the scenes? It's not rocket science. The server just needs some routine house-cleaning. Maybe somebody forgot to pay the rent? This is how people used to get rid of bad tenants in the old days!
