Title: Invisionfree Issues


Lexus Sharp - June 1, 2008 03:02 PM (GMT)
Alex posted something on the character myspaces because she can't get on HSRP. I can so I'm posting what she posted for those who can still get on HSRP.

QUOTE (Alex)
Uhm, I have no idea what's going on?
Luckily, it's not just HSRP. I know for sure that it's server 10 and server 8? I think? I went to the ifskinzone to try to see if anyone posted anything? It works but when I tried to post a topic it showed the same thing (page cannot be displayed).

I don't know what you guys are getting, but my AOL search page comes up and says 'Cannot Be Displayed'. Servers 9, 11, and 15 seem to be fine, though. I'm not sure what's going on, but if it's effecting the main site then I'm sure it's just invisionfree and not anything else.

Apparently they were working on it last night and said that it would effect boards slowly or whatever? Although, some there say they can get on the board while others say they can't.Not sure what's going on, but I'm pretty sure it's with invisionfree. Hopefully, it won't last that long, cause god, it's boring without HSRP.
Sorry guys, but there's nothing I can do.

It's weird.
I'm on my parents computer and I got on here fine.
Maybe I need to restart my computer and see what happens.

Dominic Taylor - June 1, 2008 03:48 PM (GMT)
It wasn't working for me for the longest time. Since last night. Then I deleted the cookies on my computer.. and it started to work! I have no idea if the deletion of the cookies had anything to do with it working or not though.

David Cook - June 1, 2008 03:53 PM (GMT)
Yeah, I figured that's probably what I'm gonna have to do, too.
Because if I delete that then my IP will change, which I'm thinking is how it connected on my parents computer because it's a different IP than mine.
But, I restarted my computer and changed the number it dials so I'm hoping it'll change the IP and I can log on with my comp.
If not then I'll have to delete internet files, cookies, and clean up everything.
Boo @ doing that though.

Lexus Sharp - June 1, 2008 03:57 PM (GMT)
-makes it work for Alex-

Lukas Rossi - June 1, 2008 04:02 PM (GMT)
It's just gonna be bad if it's fucked up for me completely & I can't get back on HSRP with my comp.
Cause ugh @ having to make a new board.
BUT I'M THINKING POSITIVE.
as of right now, clearing the cookies/ internet files didn't work. AOL just needs to switch me to a new IP, i think.

Riley Rouge - June 1, 2008 04:04 PM (GMT)
im thinking that its probably just the fact that the server is sucking majorly?
'cause like.... idfk but it works and then doesn't for me.
plus, don't you have dial-up?
or if you call AOL when a site doesn't work they usually tell you how to fix it?
i remember when i used to have that problem a lot. :]

Lukas Rossi - June 1, 2008 04:14 PM (GMT)
I cleared my history, cookies, and internet files, & then did the disk cleanup thing on my comp and that worked.
So I'm going to send out e-mails explaining to everyone what's going on and how to fix it, and then I might post again on myspace.
Because if I'm having this problem then I'm sure others might, too.

Lukas Rossi - June 1, 2008 04:23 PM (GMT)
Update:
Whitney aka Andy just told me she couldn't send PM's so I told her I'd try to send her one?
It's showing the 'Page Cannot Be displayed' when I click on Inbox.

Anyone else getting this?

Joseph Cross - June 1, 2008 04:39 PM (GMT)
Well when I go to inbox it loads extremely slow. And whenever I get pms from peopleI get two of the same pm

Andy Tucci - June 1, 2008 04:42 PM (GMT)
umm, yeah.
well, porcupine just sent me a pm, and i got two of the same one too?
so you're not alone.

&yeah, i've just looked again, and got like, 3 double pms from people.
like, six altogether.
so i think it's just invisionfree.

Riley Rouge - June 1, 2008 04:44 PM (GMT)
yeah, i tried to pm deej and she said she got two of them. and it wouldn't let me pm? or it wasn't showing that the pms were actually sending.

then i must be sending this poor girl about 20billion.
yeah, i tried it for like, a full 10 minutes.

Reece Morgan - June 1, 2008 04:57 PM (GMT)
Mine just...won't load posts?
Then I open a new tab and it's loaded just not in the other one, so I just constantly have to switch tabs...Iunno if that's just my computer though.

Lukas Rossi - June 1, 2008 05:18 PM (GMT)
It's no one's computer.
It's just invisionfree.

Cassie Scott - June 1, 2008 05:25 PM (GMT)
I got the PM thing last at about 1 AM today,
and the site was just being a bitch on AOL, so I switched to Safari and it's working pretty well.

Anthony Hernandez - June 1, 2008 05:28 PM (GMT)
I'm on AOL and it hasn't given me any probelms yet besides going really slow at first now its fine. Surprisingly, whenever theres a probelm my computer gets it first lmfao.
Invisionfree needs to fix the issue fast.

Gabrielle Reynolds - June 1, 2008 05:53 PM (GMT)
The PMS weren't working for me last night, either. I haven't tried them today though. And last night it wouldn't load for me for like a half hour.

Lily Aceldama - June 1, 2008 06:07 PM (GMT)
I think it's this computer?
But I can't post long posts.
And when I do, it jumps to board index and doesn't post.
And I can't send long PMs, either.

Lexus Sharp - June 1, 2008 06:08 PM (GMT)
I had that probelm, with posting and it jumping to another thread.
I posted with Anthony and it went to the character myspace thread instead of showing the post like its supposed to do. It has to be invisionfree.

Talin Bryar - June 1, 2008 06:16 PM (GMT)
i was just on another site and they said that if was having issues.
as a whole, not just one server or this board.
it wouldn't work for me last night and right now it won't work for steph.
so i think it's kinda one of those you just have to ride out and let things get settled.
as annoying as it is, :[

i'm surprised hsrp's working for me atm.
'cause half the other sites i'm trying to get on won't load?
it's really frustrating. D:

Teddy Hilton - June 1, 2008 06:27 PM (GMT)
its fine for me? but the pm? dont like load all the way to say sent but they do send.
other site its a little slow besides that it is all good for me.
another site too the pms down for like two days.
but i hope eveything gets better here.

Lexus Sharp - June 1, 2008 06:38 PM (GMT)
the admin control panel is going slow too.

Lukas Rossi - June 1, 2008 06:40 PM (GMT)
By the way, please DO NOT PRIVATE MESSAGE ME.
Because it takes so long for me to read them and reply back.

If anyone has a problem and needs help or wants to know what's going on then e-mail me or IM me.
E-mail: xSolitude@aol.com
AIM: sleep to die x

But DO NOT PM me!
I can't reply.

Also, I can't validate people's accounts. So if you're e-mailing/IM'ing or PMing me for that, then I'm sorry.
The Admin Control Panel sometimes won't even load.

Lexus Sharp - June 1, 2008 07:25 PM (GMT)
NOW its fucking up on me.
bastards.

Markell Gregory - June 1, 2008 09:59 PM (GMT)
And I thought that I was the only one with this problem.
Thank god. I tried it with my Mac, didn't work.
I tried to get on 'invisionfree.com' and that didn't even work.
&then I got on my mom's pc and it worked.
I 'x'ed out the screen, tried to get back on.
And it didn't work. All night I was trying to figure it out x.x

Nikkita Star - June 1, 2008 10:24 PM (GMT)
It must be haunted.

Lukas Rossi - June 1, 2008 10:35 PM (GMT)
Yeah, the main site (www.invisionfree.com) doesn't even work.

Chrysta Donohue - June 1, 2008 10:36 PM (GMT)
Apparently, for some people the site died again. Whitney is already pulling her hair out.

Lukas Rossi - June 1, 2008 11:45 PM (GMT)
On my computer it barely lets me post.
On my parents computer, it's completely normal.

Sam Twilight - June 1, 2008 11:53 PM (GMT)
well, after a long boring day of nothing.
it finally works.
at 8PM
when i have school the next morning.

yayyy <3
the internet has hated me today, honestly
they still haven't posted my fandom secrets.
yeah i'm kindof a nerd.
sh.

Kami Lambert - June 2, 2008 01:51 AM (GMT)
hey nobody's a nerd! :) its interesting..
I remember not to long ago Invisionfree got hacked into that didn't happen again this time did it?

Audrina Jehnsen - June 2, 2008 01:55 AM (GMT)
i've been able to get here,
'cept i had the same problem with pm's.
and i tried putting a new avatar on a few days ago,
and it made it 180x180 when i know for a fact it was 100x100.
lmfao, it's all good now though.
<3

Lukas Rossi - June 2, 2008 10:26 AM (GMT)
Is anyone still having problems?

& It's not the hacking thing again.
Something just shut down and they had a backup going or something? Which is why it didn't effect everyone at the same time. Or so that's what I read early yesterday morning.

Criz Revenge - June 2, 2008 10:30 AM (GMT)
This is the first time its worked for me all day?
Like I could get to the main page and then I couldn't open anything else.
And then a couple hours ago I couldn't reach the page at all?
But its good now I think.

Lukas Rossi - June 2, 2008 10:35 AM (GMT)
Well, it's very random? So I wouldn't really say it's completely working for you.
So far I haven't had any problems with HSRP. But, I still can't get to the main support page or the skinzone. Maybe it's effecting those on domains more? I have no idea.
Yesterday, it didn't work all morning. Then from 1 to 8pm it was just random, and wouldn't let me click on like the chat threads, this thread, and PM's wouldn't work, and then took forever to send replies.

But, I'm going to say this just so you guys can be on the safe side.
All your bios, plots, etc? Save them now. Save post counts if that matters to you, so that way if something happens? You guys don't lose anything.
I figured everything would be 100% great this morning, but it's not. So just be on the safe side and save all your stuff, :]
I'll probably make a thread about it if it's still fucked up today.

Also, if something happens, make sure you have contact with someone on this board who will know what's going on, that way you don't lose HSRP.
Better safe than sorry, right?

Chrysta Donohue - June 2, 2008 10:42 AM (GMT)
The main site is still not working, neither is skinzone. They said one of their main generators caught fire and the fire department didn't allow them to use a back up? Because of the danger and stuff.

However, they said nobody lost any data, whatsoever. Everything that's on the servers, boards, they said it's all safe. And that nobody will lose anything. They were still trying to fix it this morning when I got up, but they couldn't say when it was going to work fine again.


Leah Strader - June 2, 2008 10:50 AM (GMT)
I was reading something yesterday about the servers wherever they are catching on fire, I have no clue how true or reliable that would be though since I'm pretty sure I imagined it.

Lukas Rossi - June 2, 2008 10:56 AM (GMT)
I haven't read anything about fire. Just that it shut down or whatever.
But since you both said that it might be true, and they just said shut down because it's easier.

I would still save all of your stuff. I'm sure it's possible that some boards will lose something. Lets hope not, but I really don't want to lose all my bios and stuff.


oh yeah.
I just replied to one of my threads and it took forever.
But using fast reply to reply here? It's normal.

Chrysta Donohue - June 2, 2008 10:59 AM (GMT)
Lol.
Well, it was what said in the announcement they made on another board. But not the servers caught fire, just uhm... -searches- their electrical gear shorted, causing an explosion. No one was injured and no servers were damaged or lost.

HSRP works fine for me now. Just the main site and skinzone aren't.
This is the announcement, made yesterday morning, maybe?

QUOTE
"This evening at 4:55pm CDT in our H1 data center, electrical gear shorted, creating an explosion and fire that knocked down three walls surrounding our electrical equipment room. Thankfully, no one was injured. In addition, no customer servers were damaged or lost.

We have just been allowed into the building to physically inspect the damage. Early indications are that the short was in a high-volume wire conduit. We were not allowed to activate our backup generator plan based on instructions from the fire department.

This is a significant outage, impacting approximately 9,000 servers and 7,500 customers. All members of our support team are in, and all vendors who supply us with data center equipment are on site. Our initial assessment, although early, points to being able to have some service restored by mid-afternoon on Sunday. Rest assured we are working around the clock.

We are in the process of communicating with all affected customers. we are planning to post updates every hour via our forum and in our customer portal. Our interactive voice response system is updating customers as well.

There is no impact in any of our other five data centers.

I am sorry that this accident has occurred and I apologize for the impact."
