Baz Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I have found it impossible to enter this site via my normal favourites link. However, the method I am currently using is to go into http://www.livingfrance.com/ then click on Forums agree the terms and hay presto I am in. The strange thing is I am log in with this route whilst with my favourites link if I get in, I am logged out.Baz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex Forum Admin Posted June 27, 2007 Author Share Posted June 27, 2007 The login issue should now be fixed. Websites are still rather unstable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrCanary Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Here in Archant country in Norwich, the websites of both the Eastern Daily Press and the Evening News have been periodically off-line over the last day or so. Can somebody at I.S. confirm that these problems are down to out-dated equipment being used by one of the country's leading media groups? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex Forum Admin Posted June 27, 2007 Author Share Posted June 27, 2007 Out-dated equipment never goes wrong...it's the brand new stuff that always has problems.[:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote]Unfortunately we can't confirm that ;) The recent instablity was actually down to the introduction of a new, state-of-the-art network storage system - and a resulting critical problem with our Windows webservers. We've been working with both the storage system manufacturer and Microsoft's product support engineers to resolve the problem and have just completed live testing on a hot fix designed to work around some of the restrictions in the Windows networking specifications.So far so good, and stablity seems to be returning to the server farm!There may be more issues over the next week or so as we migrate more of our sites across to the new systems but we obviously work to minimise any disruption by conducting the majority of work out of hours.Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
