the internal server errors are becoming more and more annoying..

you can't expect to run a worthwhile community website if the user gets bombarded with errors.. i got one just trying to make this post.

to be honest, the only reason people are putting up with it is because they've been here a long time, you will never get new members that actually post and become a constructive member if the 1st experience here is a error page.

the time has come to stop pussy footing around this with dreamhost.

DEMAND to know what the problem is, what you can do, if anything to fix it... and if they give you a hard time, threaten to leave.

if they say fine, leave. DO IT.

find a new host that better serves your needs, don't say you wanna stay with dreamhost because of the space/bw they give you, every host is pretty much "unlimited" now.

we can handle the downtime for the transition, hell, with the errors, the site is down more than 50% of the time anyway.

FIX IT NOW.

Oh, well if you insist they fix it, I'm sure they'll get right on it. :downs:

It's not nearly as bad as you say it is. If you can't handle a little waiting then I think you need to learn some patience.

Patience is one thing. Letting a company step on you is another. Seriously, fix the problem one way or another.

every time i visit this website, i get at least one error, and i visit pretty often.

that's bad.

teh lag
October 31st, 2008, 06:00 PM
It is bad when you lose posts because of it. I get one about every 5 minutes. They can last anywhere from 30 seconds to 3 minutes.

This.

It happens to me around six times every visit to the site, and can last just for a little bit, or for a very long time.

i have to say that this is becoming more and more of a joke. this rivals halomods in downtime out of pure 500 error occurrences. stop dicking around thinking that someone is going to IM you from that crybaby message you put up. get your shit together guys, harden the fuck up.

I've been messaging jcap on aim every session I hit one... I wish he'd do something to get Ghost to fix it :downs:

Agreed, even though they aren't that often for me, they are still annoying as hell.

Fix this site and maybe I can stop sneezing.

It's a little weird that I haven't got one since in awhile...but I probably have not visited this site often enough.

Zeph
October 31st, 2008, 11:31 PM
We've run a diagnostic on the domains that checks to see if there are any problems, if there are any potential problems, etc. It came back saying the site was perfectly fine. I've told ghost to use that as leverage to get Dreamhost to solve the problems, but I haven't heard from him since.

It happens fucking constantly, to the point where I just give up and go shitpost somewhere else instead. DO SOMETHING.

[Thankful] to Zeph for that update.

[Unsure] why I am posting like this.

-edit- got a fucking error while making this post....

I told Ghost the steps to take several times. I'm powerless with regard to this and I've tried everything I could.

even better, trap him and force him to look at the error screen for the rest of existence.

I haven't gotten a 500 message at all today. I was confused, and then I realized- first day of November. The memory limits must have reset. That's one of the reasons it was so bad the past few days. :P

Ghost's storage/bandwidth on dreamhost is soo high it might as well be unlimited. The 500s we're getting come from not enough memory being available because apache starts a new instance of itself to do anything for any connection.

At least they aren't like halomods.

They've been down for a while but these internal errors are just temporary...

Has anyone else noticed is happening like every 10-30 seconds now?

JunkfoodMan

Yeah, I thought they went away until a couple of hours ago.

Zeph
November 14th, 2008, 05:20 PM
We're trying to get our resource usage a bit lower. 'Tis why we've gotten more 500s here lately.

Saggy

Sorry for the bump, but I've been getting the error again. This time, wtf?

Has the site been slow to load pages or otherwise unresponsive at times for anyone else? Maybe it needs to be moved to a different one of the many shared servers dreamhost runs again...

Timo

It's been fine for me, although i've gotten two 500s in the past week.

oh god thats fucking delicious.

StankBacon
December 4th, 2008, 06:03 AM
no, those errors should be gone now, since the site is back on a shared server, and off that god awful private shit server.

it will be slower, but more stable.

The site is back on shared hosting so you shouldn't see any 500's now. We are looking intently at a dedicated server to resolve the performance issue.

OK, so did the site just go down again or does it have something to do with the 500 Guests that all appeared around the same time?
