Hung Screen All Weekend Long!
 

It's happening all weekend long. Not sure if it has anything to do with system slowness or whatever updates IB's doing to FT.

Anyway, I have hung screens when I start or reply to threads, RBP, or send PMs. My Firefox would indicate contacting FT website in the FOREVER state. There's no way for me to confirm if my RBPs go through.

What I do is after 30 seconds (or longer) of hung screen, I will open another window and see if my reply posts (or threads) have been posted. I also check the sent fold for PMs. They are there. So are the hung screens in the other browser windows.

This is not the first time for this sort of problems. How "unstable" is the current state of our FT site w/ IB Beta Search?

exactly the same problems for me as with lin821 above

Started for me on Friday(?) and definitely on Saturday.
When I sent PM's, I saw that they were sent 3x's. I kept clicking 'send'. The message went half way through. Then, I stopped the message and re-sent. Repeat. ;)

This just ahppened. I stopped sending this thread. This is what I saw when I tried re-sending.

This forum requires that you wait 30 seconds between posts. Please try again in 12 seconds.

Same problem.

Problems on Friday, but so far not too bad today.

Not sure if it is related but I've gotten the "database error" screen a few times the past few days.

I've had lots of problems replying to threads today but better since changing from Firefox to IE.

Pretty bad here too, whatever browser.

For every post I've made this weekend, I've had to submit it twice to get it to take.

And PMs/RBPs just hang forever, even though they do get sent.

It seems the hung screen problem is gone this morning. Didn't have this problem with my RBPs during the last 30 minutes or so.

Still Hung!
 

I may speak too fast (again).

The problem just returns when I tried a new post in the Search Problems Master Thread. :(

This appears to be one of those pesky intermittent problems. The tech team has been looking into it and has as yet been unable to resolve it satisfactorily. Of course, the effort is ongoing.

Thanks all for relaying your experiences. Hope to have this repaired very soon.

It's hanging badly this afternoon. I have to keep two screens going for FT so that I can refresh one to see if what I attempted to post on the other has indeed done so. Further, I've gotten as many as 3 RBPs from a member whom I am confident was unaware that 3 were submitted.

hanging badly this morning for all my posts. my post hangs, i open the thread i'm posting to in a new window, go to the bottom of the last page and there is my post with the original post window still hanging (n.b. the preview post fncn works just fine)
