Database error message
 
During this session, about every other forum I go to, using the drop-down box at the bottom of the page, gives me this database error message:

Database error
The database has encountered a problem.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please try the following:
•Load the page again by clicking the Refresh button in your web browser.
•Open the www.flyertalk.com home page, then try to open another page.
•Click the Back button to try another link.

The www.flyertalk.com forum technical staff have been notified of the error, though you may contact them if the problem persists.

We apologise for any inconvenience.


Refreshing works, but it's annoying to have this extra step. By the way, "apologise" should be "apologize."

I'm seeing this a LOT too in the last 30 minutes.

Is system maintenance still ongoing now?
 
Almost every click on threads or submission of replies/RBPs brings me the data base error message. It also happened when I tried to log in onto FT. :(

For me, it started about 5 minutes ago. I thought the maintenance was over hours ago.

Is FT back to normal yet?

ps. I had to try three times to submit this reply due to data base error.

Got the same message when I first clicked on this thread. Thought it was a joke for a minute... :cool:

Wirelessly posted (BlackBerry9630/5.0.0.484 Profile/MIDP-2.1 Configuration/CLDC-1.1 VendorID/189)

At least we're getting a pretty FT icon now.
The mobile site seems to be working okay though.

Yo IB, you broked the DB, it is giving errors.

This isn't maintenance, and I was about to get the real error when it worked again last time.

This was unrelated to the recent maintenance and the issue has been resolved.

Apologise is the British spelling, and vBulletin was initially built and developed out of England.

It just happened to me about two minutes ago.

More and more database errors this morning as well as timeouts when trying to post (like this post, took three attempts)

pps. I guess "database error" now has a new meaning on FT. Meaning it's very likely your post/s will go through even when the system says database error. The series of posts by cblaisd & me in thread are the evidence.
