Albert the InfoGipsy Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 I just had a strange error turn up in this forum.Error 503 Service UnavailableService UnavailableGuru Meditation:XID: 697743558There was also a link to a Varnish Cache Server.The last time I saw a Guru Meditation in an error message was when I was using Commodore Amigas seriously about 15+ years ago! Just what do Archant's systems run on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suein56 Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Having seen this intermittently all day I have been chuckling to myself as I distantly remember 'guru meditation' too; back from the dim and distant past of my son's Amiga. Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swissie Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Any chance of a reply about what this might be all about, please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suein56 Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Presumably said Guru has found enlightenment since yesterday, as the forum has been functioning normally today; ie still slow on occasion - could be my adsl connection - but definitely no periods of meditation (of its navel) as previously.Sue [:)];)Edit: I did include a smilie but it didn't appear - rats, I forgot, need IE8 for that functionality, not FF.

Swissie Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Yes sue, good news. But wouldn't it be nice to have a reply from the official support, with some explanation of what it might have been all about? Please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russethouse Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I'm not sure what you want anyone to say after the problem is solved ? I'm not an expert on forum faults, except to know that sometimes there are some, and sometimes they are very frustrating, but I know from experience that the IT people tend to just get on with trying to get things right rather than communicate - they look after lots of forums, not just ours.

Swissie Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Thanks RH. I understand- it would be helpful though if the IT dept. would communicate and explain. But thanks for getting back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
