Is this any quicker than you are used to? It is wickedly fast for me in the UK at the moment.

Extremely fast in the USA, too--in fact, the fastest page loads of any site I've ever visited.




edguerin -> RE: NEED YOUR HELP TESTING AGAIN (Jun. 22 2009 12:59:39)

great!
really fast in Germany.

But then this site seems to be speedy too at the moment ...

Same database server - different database versions and the asp pages here are running in the uk so not efficient and prone to timeouts. I gave the hosters a nudge and they figured something out for both databases I think.

I will leave the test site running as it is and set up a monitoring program before switching over.

Look folks...

Simon has been working his ass off and spending hours and hours trying to fix the problems folk are always moaning about.

But if folk can't be bothered helping him test it out...

Can't you see, why shouldn't he just say "f*ck it !" and do something more rewarding than trying to solve IT problems in the evening, when he's already spent all day doing the same thing at work?

Give the man a break.

Upload ANY old crap at his test site and try the search and tabs in different formats etc

It will all be deleted anyway.

If you can't be arsed, then don't start complaining in a few months when you can't upload something or find the Forum too slow etc....and Simon hasn't got the spare time to work on it.

cheers,

Ron

I just spent a little time fooling around with the notoriously uncooperative search function with unheard of success. That thing works like a mo-fo!




Doitsujin -> RE: NEED YOUR HELP TESTING AGAIN (Jun. 22 2009 13:36:28)

Yesterday I tested an mp3 upload of 8 MB...the test site crashed...and gave me a weird error..that my File is empty"..or something.. I tryed to post a screenshot here..and this site also crashed..[&:]

But now it seems to run pretty fast.. all right.. Pgh_flamenco are you Persian? Or why did you post that carpet? lol..

Things have changed since then - thanks for the feedback and let me know if it happens again. You could try the same upload again for me.

I think they have been rebooting all their servers since I pointed out some issues.

Had one just like it in Spain. Sorry about the cat.




mrMagenta -> RE: NEED YOUR HELP TESTING AGAIN (Jun. 22 2009 14:05:07)

This is perhaps not the right thread but I've had another problem..

I got logged out after the update, and I forgot my password. I tried making the log-in send my account info to my e-mail. I got the message that said it was sent, but the mail never arrived. I tried it three times during the last days but have still not got any mail from the site. I finally found the password now... phew. Just thought I'd write something about it in case others might get locked out in a similar way. I'm using a yahoo mailbox and I'm receiving other e-mails fine.

BTW. Downloading content and browsing works well on the test site, and on this site too. I would say equally well, I think my ISP might be setting my limit, but things are generally much speedier than before the move/update.

Yep, this site is crap at sending emails but very hard to debug and kind of out of my hands I am afraid. Just ping me an email when it happens again. And check your junk mail folder.

Doit, I was uploading picture files to help test the new site--it's all going to be deleted at some point anyway. If you scroll through the pic you'll see my Siamese cat. He died about two weeks ago.

Thanks Simon. He was 15 years old. After spending that much time with a pet it's pretty tough...

Yeah, my dog's getting on for his breed and it will wreck me when he goes, my one true companion. Still, 15 years is a good time to have with your cat - bless his heart.




JasonMcGuire -> RE: NEED YOUR HELP TESTING AGAIN (Jun. 22 2009 15:08:19)

Super Fast!




Florian -> RE: NEED YOUR HELP TESTING AGAIN (Jun. 22 2009 15:23:31)

The site works great for me...

thanks again for everything




at_leo_87 -> RE: NEED YOUR HELP TESTING AGAIN (Jun. 22 2009 20:27:03)

Thanks for taking the time to do this, Simon!

I CANT believe the search works now!

I tried uploading a video and it wouldn't cooperate. anybody else want to give it a try?




srshea -> RE: NEED YOUR HELP TESTING AGAIN (Jun. 22 2009 21:53:32)

Just uploaded a very off-topic vid, and it seems to have worked.




Jim Opfer -> RE: NEED YOUR HELP TESTING AGAIN (Jun. 23 2009 3:40:54)

Yes! very fast.




Ron.M -> RE: NEED YOUR HELP TESTING AGAIN (Jun. 23 2009 6:26:35)

Everything really fast, search function great and other great new functions like multiple media file posting.

I've noticed that the Web page in the browser seems to be wider than my 4:3 screen size though and I have to scroll horizontally to read the posts.

THIS Forum comes up OK and fits normally.

Is this an intentional 16:9 format, or if not could be a glitch with my own computer as I've had that happen every now and then on other sites?

Great work anyway Simon!

cheers,

Ron

It will, in those threads with a wide photo - it's the same here, just that people have been loading big photos over the to test. Have another look and you'll see what I mean.

I have only gone 16:9 with my new camera [;)]
