#1 ObscureInfo Aug 01, 2008 19:38:39	For the last two days I have been trying to check out the D&D website, only to get a server error. Does anybody know what is going on with the website? Are they doing something or is it just mechanical problems?
#2 kursk Aug 01, 2008 19:50:08	Wow, you're right: Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a03e9' Out of memory /default.asp, line 0 Looks like I see the problem... They are using Microsloth :D
#3 xaelra Aug 01, 2008 21:44:47	Still down, maybe they're actually doing some major update? I'm just glad it's not just my computer :D
#4 wizardmon Aug 01, 2008 21:58:11	Still down, maybe they're actually doing some major update? I'm just glad it's not just my computer :D One can always hope! (Mine's doing it too.)
#5 csotnalucard Aug 01, 2008 21:58:32	First I am soo glad that I'm not the only one Second I hope they are fixing the website up a little I hope that they change the old links like map of the week that has the old yellow sidebars They might just have some sever problems or it could be technical and/or hardware issues but I just hope that they fix it soon

Maybe you people were hitting it when they were trying to remove some broken portion related to Glemax, or they were updating the newest articles and the CMS was not able to disply properly at the moment you tried to hit it. you could try checking to make sure you are not having cookie problems. I always hate hearing clear your cache, but with the problem transfering to an actual login rather than not really using the data you could be trying to login automatically and hitting an error page where your login was treated as null because you weren't actually logging in but using a bad cookie the site had given you previously. You can always check the DDI forum for the latest news. mudbunny is prompt at updating threads there for quick reference to allow you to find new items every day, and not only from wizards site, but from elsewhere around the eb that relates to D&D as well.
#8 ObscureInfo Aug 02, 2008 7:46:09	It is back up now.
#9 knightsfyre Aug 02, 2008 7:56:36	Still down when I tried it a minute ago. In addition, when I was able to get on the site earlier (about an hour ago), I tried downloading the PDF for Dragon #365 and got a "file damaged and can't be repaired" message. Hopefully they get this fixed soon.
#10 zardok Aug 02, 2008 8:20:52	"file damaged" ... makes the pessimist in me start thinking they got hacked big time. where's my inner optimist!?

Hopefully they get this fixed soon. Clear your cache. Reload the web page. Start/ControlPanel/Internet Options/Browsing History/Delete Temorary Internet Files Cookies And try reloading the page...

Ja, i've done this twice.. i've gotten two separate error messages from the main site one of which being the VBScript runtime error.. still cant see anything on the main site
#13 kursk Aug 02, 2008 9:51:22	Still down, maybe they're actually doing some major update? I'm just glad it's not just my computer :D No. When you are doing an update to a major entry page you redirect the page to a message. The error message you see is s/g spit out by the server OS. This wasn't planned or directed by a human.
#14 lord_karsus Aug 02, 2008 11:40:32	Looks like I see the problem... They are using Microsloth :D -This is D&D. Wouldn't it be 'Micrololth?'
#15 hellmute Aug 02, 2008 22:31:09	-This is D&D. Wouldn't it be 'Micrololth?' either way and no matter what edition it is still a level 99 monster.
