    Hey, the board has been EXTREMELY SLOW for me recently, it’s loading for ages, sometimes the posts wouldn’t even get posted because it’d take so long, it would get an error.
    Anyone with the same problem?

    EDIT: Btw, it’s not my internet, every other page is working just fine.

    I saw it too and curiously enough, on one other web site which runs the same forum software, but nowhere else.

    Was this just on Monday and Sunday? Monday was our second-highest ever record for web traffic, which taxed our server. We had several thousand unique visitors and served over 30,000 web page views.

    It may be time to throw some more money at the website and upgrade to a dedicated server.

    What was the error message you received?

    It was a server error, so you might be right.
    And yes, the problem persisted just the last few days, I think I first noticed it on Saturday, but it seems to be gone now.

    Wow, 30,000 page views is impressive! 🙂

    Actually, the problem is back. But there are 30-something users online so I guess it explains it. It does take a LONG time to load.

    I haven’t had any trouble since Sunday, but I’ve only been on line a little.

    I’m aware of this problem and have been rushing to fix it, among other issues. Is it the main site, or the forums, too?

    Getting an error message since Sunday night:

    General Error
    SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

    Got error 134 from storage engine [1030]

    An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.

    The error only shows up, when I try to access the forums via https://oncepodcast.com/forums/ – like via the link on the main page. No error when accessing via https://oncepodcast.com/forums//index.php or a direct line to any posting.

    ¯\_(?????? ?)_/¯

    Are you still receiving the error? I updated some things Tuesday afternoon.
