Pages not loading

Stabshauptmann · 2007-07-05 12:03:18

Ive been having a lot of problems recently with pages not loading. I dont get any error messages, database error messages or 404s. Just a blank screen. Instead of the thread titles coming up at the top of the tab I get the url. eg where it should say "exam results - Page 2 - boards.ie" it says…

Ive been having a lot of problems recently with pages not loading. I dont get any error messages, database error messages or 404s. Just a blank screen. Instead of the thread titles coming up at the top of the tab I get the url.

eg where it should say "exam results - Page 2 - boards.ie" it says "http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055100505&page=2"

Hitting refresh doesnt make it load properly, Ive to close the tab and load the page again. This has happened to me a lot over the past 2 days with a lot of threads, perhaps its happening to others too.

Windows XP
Firefox 2.0.0.4

Same here. Seems to be a problem trying to view any page which isn't the first page. I also have XP and Firefox 2.0.0.4.

Yep, happening me too and I'm using IE7, so I don't think it's a browser issue.

Yes, I'm getting it too .. it's started in the last few days. Just a blank page, but it usually appears if I hit Reload/F5, but sometimes takes two attempts. Using Firefox here fwiw.

For me on FF 2.0.0.4, a refresh works, unlike the OP.

Bloomin' annoying alright, but easily remedied.

No bother for me today. I'm using firefox. Occasionally I get a problem loading the forums index page. I just get a blank white page. I have to refresh it a couple of times before it's sorted but no big deal.

That's irritating. I doubt it would be anything with the browser itself though.

It's a bit of an odd problem all right. It's not that bid a deal though. A refresh or two usually solves it. Have ye any ideas what it could be?

Was having the same problem yesterday, though it seems fine today so far.

I had installed Opera instead, and pages did load, but incredibly slow, seemingly hanging with google-analytics.com before page finished.

I have noticed that as well. Some are loading with all the links and text but no design (it's kinda hard to explain what it looks like).

Sometimes it can be slow to open a page but then a few minutes later it's nice and zippy again.

I'm getting the same, also the occasional page loads with no style sheet, i.e. nice white background, Times font etc. etc. Usually a reload gets it back first time. Maybe something with the load sharing is going a bit haywire?

That happened to me once or twice earlier. Everything is fine for me now though. No database errors and it's pretty quick loading up.

That's the one I'm getting the most.
Mildly irritating, but it's boards.ie after all.
