Hi all,

Jef (Sting) asked me to post here as he is not able to get on to the forums. He gets this screen:

Any ideas?
 
Everything looks fine to me, maybe he should try clearing his cookies?

From,
Chris.
 
It seems to work for everything else, just try it, what does he have to lose?

From,
Chris.
 
Ok, I had the same problem.
What I did was, I went to "options" on the tool toolbar, and typed in "gtplanet.net/forum" on the home page address, and that seemed to work well. Even though I already had gtp forums as a home page.

If you can't, you can still browse the forum by going to the main page, click on the "GTHD official thread" or forum link provided by Jordan and that will take you to the GTHD forum. After that just bookmark it and browse the site starting from the GTHD forum.

(There's a "Forum Jump" option at the bottom of every thread or forum btw if you haven't noticed.)





Ciao!
 
DQ,

Can you check your PM's and let me know if you talk to Sting?

Thanks,

Der Alta
 
Honestly, there's nothing else I check on the internet other than my email and some other forums. Ever since I joined GTP, I started using my home pc a lot more...

Your home page is GTP?



fanboy :lol:

Mine is too, also Accel and my ISP page, so I can check my E-Mail.

Did anyone ever get in contact with Sting?

Chris.
 
Yo guys. I noticed that this problem only arose after installing and using Firefox 2.0, but I swear the site worked before on that.

I've now reverted back to v1.5 of Firefox as I still had the old install file and as you can see here I am. I don't understand why the problem showed up with v2.0 so I guess I'll stick with the old version for now. Any theories?
 
Glad to hear it all worked out and there wasn't something more sinister that you were caught up in.

I will sometimes use Apache configuration files to close particular directories to the public while upgrading software or fixing a particular problem. Last Saturday, our forums experienced a pretty severe database corruption, resulting in errors on every page. While I worked on correcting the problem, I used one of these files to direct people to a more friendly error message at offline.htm. Did you ever get your message before last Saturday, Sting? I'd guess not, but you never know. The strange thing is that offline.htm hasn't contained that error message about the Gallery since I first introduced our new integrated GTP Gallery software months ago, indicating to me that offline.htm was cached somewhere either by a Firefox extension, your ISP, or a proxy server in between. That's pretty much the only way you could have seen that message as offline.htm hasn't looked like that for months on our server.

Nope Jordan, only started getting that message this week, starting Sunday and yesterday is when I asked Dunc to post about it. I'm just glad the revert to FF v1.5 has allowed me to get back on. I'll delay re-upgrading my version of FF for now.
 
I use v2.0 & I have had no problems on any site. Just try re-installing FF & it should work.

Sting, did you try what I did when I had the same problem on the same day?

Thing is, at the end of the URL address, it said something like .php or something like that. So when I took that out, and left it as "gtplanet.net/forum" it worked out pretty well.





Ciao!
 
Nah Ozzy, if you look at the screenshot I gave DQ to post, .php is nowhere in the address bar.
