Now tagless for your comfort.

I was getting the errors about a half an hour ago, but not anymore. Mostly when I hit "Buffistas Home". It would go away when I pushed refresh.

I've been looking at other threads and I haven't gotten an error in the last few minutes.

I've gotten it 4 out of 5 attempts to load a page in the last 10 minutes.

eta, and again when I went to post this.

Now I got the strangest problem in the "Firefly" thread, and now it happened here, too:

On the message center is said that there are 2 new messages, and when I got to the thread there was only 1 new message, but its number was not the one following the former post, but the following+1. It was like a post went missing (and if a post is deleted, there are still 'marks' - it says who and when posted it, and who and when deleted it).

[Edit: and it happened here in moonlit's post, and again in mine - moonlit's post # is 4963, and mine is 4965]

That's happening a lot since we went over our connections.

I don't ever remember it happening 3 times at once, though. Do you?


Kristen - Sep 21, 2003 10:11:52 pm PDT #5013 of 10000

I'm not sure what you mean. It's happened at least a dozen times in the past three hours. I think it's related to this new error message thing.

I meant that I've seen some strange things with post numbers on this board in the past, but not 3 'strange things' at once.

It's happened at least a dozen times in the past three hours.

I didn't know that. Your 'connection' theory looks quite reasonable to me, too (but I'm quite ignorant in these things, so my opinion doesn't really matter).


Kristen - Sep 21, 2003 10:30:10 pm PDT #5015 of 10000

Oh gotcha. Yeah, I think the two are related. I know we've had weird post number things happen but not so many at once. At least once tonight, I went to post, got the error message in response and, while my post didn't appear, the next post number skipped.

ETA: Like what just happened with this post.

ETA: Like what just happened with this post.

And when I tried to read it, I got the post-less screen, like Matt described earlier, and needed to refresh a few times before I saw your post.

[Edit: and I got the error message twice now before I managed to post, and this post # is 2 numbers ahead of what it should be]

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty

For reference, I'm getting

September 22, 2003, 12:38 am Am-Chau Yarkona[354]: ERROR [2] mysql_connect(): User bufforg_phoenix has already more than 'max_user_connections' active connections line 77 of file /home/bufforg/public_html/classes/giles.php

There has been an error. It's of the type we call fatal. Please don't be scared. You're not the one that's going to die.

Okay, where the $$&#&(@#& are the developers?

messages, maybe in seven of ten attempts to 'read new'. So you know.
