Magnatar problems again?

[notset4life]

I'm on magnatar and reach my limited site easily and quickly. What is your domain name?

[notset4life]

cybermidi.com

[alphadesk]

cybermidi.comSite came up very quick for me ... even the 2 popunder adds.

I also have a magnatar site which is fine.

When I loaded your site, Firefox blocked the popup ads, but then I got a "zero sized reply" when trying to load the page. A reload worked fine. But your page seems to load content from various domains, which could be problematic (www.sonnerie.net, in particular, seems to be a problem.)

I am on magnatar (or www26 or whatever it is called these days) and my site loads fine, but I cannot FTP. It worked on the weekend AFTER changing from Passive mode to active AND changing the server name to my domain name. Why can't I ftp to my server?

[tbonekkt]

Yvette - FTP to magnatar.powweb.com using PASV. That sould work..

[YvetteKuhns]

We now need to use servername.powweb.com (active or passive works.)

Yep, that worked. This stuff changes more often than my son changes his underwear! :D That is what I had in the first place, though I had passive mode and didn't bother to change that back (yet). Thanks! :)

I am on magnatar. As of this post RIGHT NOW, it has slowed to a crawl.

30+ seconds for page views

http://www.mbdc.net


edit: slowly becoming more responsive...or not...

Check my sig. areamike.com is on a different webhost. Why can't we get that kind of speed from POWWEB?

[YvetteKuhns]

Mine loads faster than yours, because they are static html links (mostly). I am glad my clients using php are not on magnatar right now. ;)

[YvetteKuhns]

Possible reasons why http://www.mbdc.net/ is having problems could be the 199 code errors: http://validator.w3.org/check?verbo...//www.mbdc.net/

I thought it was just phpNuke and phpBB sites having problems. ;)

Sorry, mikem. Good luck!

[mikem]

I am having absolutely no PHP problems on magnatar. In fact, the (now load balanced) server is impressively fast!

funny thing is if those errors had ANYTHING to do with my site(s) being slow to repond, then the slow reponse should be happeneing ALL THE TIME. Don't you think? I can take my existing MBDC website, throw it on my friends server with another host and it runs faster than it ever has on powweb.

I'm on magnatar and my site won't display either. It has been that way since at least 7 am today.

Have you updated your php to PowWeb's latest changes?

[Carson]

What do you mean by that? What changes should I update it for?

[Carson]

Ahh, nevermind, I found the thread. That wasn't there earlier.

[mikem]

Have you updated your php to PowWeb's latest changes?

unfortunately those changes don't affect us that DO NOT use URL's in our include lines in our PHP scripts.

:mad:

I will say, at the very least, I am happy that powweb is making an attempt to solve these issues. Some webhosts would simply blow these things off.
Thanks for that powweb. Keep at it, you'll figure it out.

Do yo uknow what ZERO SIZED REPLY means??

[stevel]

It means that the server returned a response with no data at all. Not a good thing. But I can't tell you what caused it.

[notset4life]

That validator is mostly hogwash. There html coding is fine. If you threw
a few of the most popular web sites in there, you would see up to 100 errors.
But thanks for the suggestion.

[notset4life]

and by the way the site is down again.
http://www.cybermidi.com loads fine, but the main page http://www.cybermidi.com/default.php produce page not found.
(of course by the time this is read, it will probably be up again)
Also, http://cybermidi.com/catalog works fine.

This has been "hiccupping" for the last 3 days, and has been down all morning.
I sent a note to support yesterday but haven't heard back.

I may have narrowed it down to an include statement.. I had
include www/y/c/cybermidi.com/htdocs/random_content.php...and it
was working fine for a month. Now I notice when I remove that line, it works fine. So now instead of using the include, I just put the contents of the file on the main page, and it works...but I have no idea why it didn't work and why it works now.

<?
/*
Random Content v1.0
www.triumphantmedia.com/resources
*/

$random_content="/www/c/y/cybermidi.com/htdocs/random_content.txt";
$random_content=file("$random_content");
$display=rand(0, sizeof($random_content)-1);
echo $random_content[$display];

?>

Sorry I didn't post that for you last night. I had to do homework with my son and get him to bed. And this morning, the oil pipeline down the street exploded and it is still burning. I am surrounded by smoke and my road is closed. Been busy with work and other stuff.

It is strange that removing the line works instead of editing the line. Since you are on magnatar, you didn't have to change this sooner. Magnatar was the last one to be updated. I know since I am on magnatar. :rolleyes:

Glad it works. Hope it continues to do so. :)

And I didn't mean to critisize your "critisism". The problems are stemming from this load balancing issue.

As far as those errors you see, they are from the line DOCTYPE, which doesn't appear to be correct, but nevertheless is not the cause of my problems.

[YvetteKuhns]

notset4life, your sites load very quickly for me using a cable modem. Are you logging the times your site is down for you? Is it down for you when it is accessible for others?

[notset4life]

It is working now for the most part...it came down to load balancing,which I still can't resolve in some cases, but thanks anyway.
