Seen it several times now myself.

I am with @Eli1 on this one - seems to be a database related problem...
This one is a bit 50/50.
Part PHP version which may be old or part host is down altogether.
Both of them equal host-related issues though.

It more often seems like the-devil-in-the-works... :censored:
Nah, this is easily fixable if the will is there.
But that's all i would like to say.
I appreciate the site and the people running it. It takes time and technical knowledge to keep something like this running with 99% uptime.

I don't think the host is down altogether - the header and footer frames are working - only the ["main"] content part of the page is failing. (referring to the most recent error indicated in the thread - dynamic page generation failure)

So - it would seem to be database "read" errors at the crux of it.

I certainly can see how the PHP version might make a difference.

Yes - I know - I agree.

I do too - as far as I know - Tracy and Jim have always dealt with people honestly and fairly. I have always tried my best to respect them and trust their judgment where this site is concerned. And, whenever and wherever my conscience allows, I try to be helpful to them and the site.

My 'devil' remark was meant in the 'gremlin' sense of what makes the site go down each time - not meaning anything having to do with human intent or effort - and, was strictly for the sake of humor.
