Server issues {server hiccuping ?? and 500 - Internal Server Error}

[Crimson-Guard]

i was trying to go into the forums when the site displayed to me this
The server is currently hicupping. Please give it time to finish up.

If you ever want to communicate with us in downtimes we are @hiveworkshop on twitter.

anyone got this before or am i the only one ??

 

[DarkAngelAzazel]

I sometimes got "we are just backupping our database" and that's something I can understand :/

But I never got the hicupping thing

 

[Crimson-Guard]

the backing up is regular and its done during (sg time) 6pm... but the hicupping i have no ideal ....

 

[Pharaoh_]

Of course we did; we've already discussed that
I just got it too, nothing to worry about.

 

[Tleno]

I had a HTTP 500 today few minutes ago... strange.

 

[Crimson-Guard]

eh ? ur is HTTP 500 mine is this... (its take just now check the time below if u dont believe)

BTW Pharaoh_ any ideal why it hiccups ??

 

[Crazed_seal2]

Its kinda like an error but not a fatal one... Its one of those errors that sort themselves out like hiccups

Every once in a while, the server gets a little too much to drink. Nothing to be worried about, at least until the server starts frequenting the hospital for pumping.

 

[reason 3]

I noticed something...some guys are DoSing the Hive.

That means they are sending multiple IP commands so that the server is too busy...i got that one just yesterday night, and i noticed that the number of guests were really big..

Maybe Ralle can trace them and ban their IP?

hmm i wonder if letting the sever drink some water will it help ....

i got the same hicupping msg yesterday too might be at the same time...

hmm shiik i think the sever has just gone to the hospital 3 times in a row.... lookie here (using IE this time)

 

[orcyngiser]

this happened 2 me as well

 

[Crimson-Guard]

i didnt know whether it hicup again yesterday cos i had some font size prob in firefox and i went offline early and well didnt know if it did hicup or not yesterday ??

IT STRIKES AGAIN !!!!

 

[Ralle]

Usually it's just because too many people request too many pages at once which overloads the server a little too much. Nothing to worry about (however I am planning on getting a new server).

 

[Crimson-Guard]

erm ralle, the hicup just happen.. looke at pict attached

 

[Grey Nightmare]

It's normal, just busy, cleared up now.

 

[Crimson-Guard]

erm grey nightmare i just got it again.....

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

Hiccup Hiccup Hiccup!
Too many maps&models in the Hiveworkshop cup!

 

[Tleno]

I've got this like two times...

 

[Crimson-Guard]

lucky u tleno i got it 6 times... (2times today...)

 

[Tleno]

No, I've got it two times today too, tottally it was like 4-3 times.

 

[Crimson-Guard]

ah then u got same as me for today cos i thought only i got it 2 times today XD

 

[The Reborn Devil]

Rofl, I got wtfpwnd by the hicuping again

 

[Crimson-Guard]

haha devil u got how many hiccups today ?
BTW i noticed that the hiccups happens after the database backups....(dont believe me click here and see the pictures time...)

 

[The Reborn Devil]

Ye, I noticed that too. It was working fine before the backup and after it I was spammed by the hicupping thing.

 

[Crimson-Guard]

should we tell ralle to stop backing up ??
EDIT: after thinking it for a while, it seams ridiculous ...

 

[Grey Nightmare]

I don't know, I usually happens to me once every couple of days for about 10mins I can't get on then it clears up.

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

Hiccup #1300 post.

 

[Crimson-Guard]

I don't know, I usually happens to me once every couple of days for about 10mins I can't get on then it clears up.

same here i had it happen for 3 straight days...

 

[Crazed_seal2]

Happened again today...

 

[Crimson-Guard]

yep and after the hiccup i got an error dun know if any of you ppl got it too...

 

[Azndragon]

Lucky me, never happenened to me once

 

[Axarion]

I had the problems 2 times and the strange about it was that I tried to post something at that time I hope its not me

 

[Crimson-Guard]

and i thought it has been solved....

 

[Pharaoh_]

The thing is, I was writing a huge column of text and when I tried to post it, I received this damn hiccup. Ralle, can we have the same feature, as we do in back up's, where it temporarily saves the text you were about to post or is it something you can't control, due to its unknown nature?

 

[Crimson-Guard]

lol lucky firefox just resend the data again so i dun have that prob XD but yeah ralle is this hiccupping thing gonna be 'kill' off anytime soon ??

If you're using firefox, doesn't it save what was in the text box?

 

[Pharaoh_]

I am using Google Chrome. :/
After the feedback I look around for Firefox, I don't wanna try it. Plus, Google Chrome might have some connection flaws from time to time, but it definitely is my best solution (that windowed mode that stores my most visited locations is saving my time).
So, that is a reason why Ralle obviously featured the back-up-saving-text thing, because not all of us use Firefox, right?

No, it's because it's impossible for the server to predict when the next hiccup is going to come. It can only tell you it's hiccuping when it's hiccuping but other than that it can't do much.

Plus it would be pretty... not worth it in the long run.

 

[Deolrin]

Crimson-Guard, the hiccups are not an error\bug\whatever. They're just like server downtimes. You can't just "fix" them unless you get a new server, or configure your server better. So... Don't just expect them to suddenly 'disappear' or whatever, and instead "CTRL+C" your posts before posting.

At least I think that's what they are.

 

[The Reborn Devil]

Ralle is getting a new server, so please be patient.

And to you who lose your huge blocks of text when the server hiccups: Get Firefox, problem solved.

 

[Crimson-Guard]

i am using firefox just that i find it annoying BTW there seems like no more hiccups has happened to me ...

 

[Anachron]

I don't get it. For me it seems that the server is not configured correctly, so the new server will probably be faster at the start, but then it will be slower and have again these problems.

 

[The Reborn Devil]

Sorry for necro'ing, but those "Server is too busy" messages have returned and the chat fucked up today.

big screenshot of chat

Shados joined twice and we have been disconnected several times (more than you can see on that picture).

 

[Tleno]

Well today the Hive is very slow and I've checked other sites and those are fine, so it's not my PC...

 

[Dromlexer]

U mean

 

[Rui]

If you're using firefox, doesn't it save what was in the text box?

Not if you're posting in the Quick Reply box. Text gets erased with no possibility of retrieval.

I just had a «server too busy» message a short while ago, which is creepier than the hiccup.

 

[Crimson-Guard]

hmm i just came online to find this ....

 

[Tleno]

Yeah, Hive was down for quite a while I'd say.

 

[Crimson-Guard]

Yeah, Hive was down for quite a while I'd say.

really ?? i was playing sudden attack so idk =(

 

[Rui]

The website overall doesn't seem to be functioning very well. It is very slow at the moment.
