Ski-It-Again Problems

[OK_SKIER]

Have been trying to send email about a ski for two days and continue to get "Internal Server Error". I get the same error when trying to use their contact button. Does anybody know if the site is down or is it a problem with my PC?

It is a problem with the site, not your pc

OK_SKIER, OLDJEEP, et al!

 

APOLOGIES!!! APOLOGIES!!! APOLOGIES!!!

 

SIA was testing some live updates and stomped on a file that caused several problems!

 

Postings were still viewable but were not editable nor could you respond to them.

 

All services (except RSS) are back up and running.

 

Again, SIA apologizes for the break in service.

@LarryG Tried posting a few items for sale and got a “still being processed” messages for half hour. Worked the other night. Any body else?

 

Edit - they appear to have posted. I should’ve been more patient.

@Orlando76,

 

SIA rents webserver space and cannot control the timing limits for uploads. Every now and then the Al Gore Highway goes out to La-La-Land and times-out for various reasons like too many/large photo uploads for available upload speed and other times just cause it can! However, most of the time, the posting still makes it.

 

Whenever that happens, close the dialog and go make sure the posting was created.

 

Am prepping some large site upgrades, mostly in the account management area. Hoping to roll that out before end of FEB. More details to follow!

 

Thanks for using the site!!!
