UKC

A couple of times in the past week or so, I've had 500-series server errors when trying to use the site, has it been having issues?

All the sh1t talking probably overloading current server capability I imagine.

Any page in particular or the whole site?

The Forums page was definitely not working and that started at about 12 Noon.
To echo what was said by elsewhere, it was a 503 fault.

I had a 500 series for a short period on UKC earlier this week, looking at the list below to jog my memory, pretty sure it was 503.

Hardonicus might be right!

I've tweaked the Apache settings a little. Hopefully that improves it.

Almost certainly forums. Today it was at 12:10 and a 503 when I tried to submit a comment on the Lyme article thread. URL from my history https://www.ukclimbing.com/forums/thread/lyme_disease_-_what_you_need_to_kn...

It didn't seem to accept my comment at the time, but I notice it's there now.

Also 11:18 on the 6th, either commenting or looking at the ADSB thread. Again, a 503 service unavailable.  https://www.ukclimbing.com/forums/thread/adsb_spotting_part_5-745906?v=1&am...

Using my normal machine on it's normal connection for the time.

Hope that helps

Any thread. 'Server Unavailable' due to maintenance or loading.

Seen it a few times recently.

I also had a few 500-series messages during the week (Wed/Thu)
