What happened?

Dorsetmike · Nov-27-2009, 15:53

Hi, glad to see the forum is back, what happened yesterday? I kept getting Error messages.

Did somebody forget to feed the hamster that drives the server power supply?

Hi Mike

Poor Frederik's hamster had an off day, his wheel gave up. But hopefully his new one will allow him to run a little faster.

Hi Mike,

I've written about the problems here: http://www.magle.dk/music-forums/982...r-strikes.html

Indeed the hamster-wheel gave up, big time! Anyhow, we are running on an emergency reserve server right now, but hopefully next week the site will be up and running a brand new and faster server.

Soimetimes I think computers are a total abomination. They're machines, and you have to plug them in, and even then they can come back and hit you in the face. Why can't they be fixed by taking a rock and throwing it at the acreen?

Oh yes, I really, really wanted to throw rocks at something today. Probably a good thing the server is hosted remotely from where I live (in the other end of the country actually) else I'd probably have made things much worse and thrown it out the window

Frederick.
I am trying to upload photos but keep getting error messages.
Is it me or the system?

Cheers John

Hi John,

Maybe I can help ... the file I am assuming is a JPG format? There is a 768 KB limit on file size for that format, per upload.

Can you copy/paste the error message and post it here?

Testing upload: 506 KB (JPG Format - Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum)

Sorry Kh'
I lost track of this particular thread but as you know I followed up elsewhere to receive the explanation.
(I can post images to normal threads OK now.)

Thanks John

Krummhorn · Apr-15-2010, 06:54

No problem, John.

Great to hear that you can upload photos in posts now.

We are still working the gallery upload issues.

My dear Frederik - can I humbly suggest (instead of throwing computer equipment out of your Copenhagen apartment) that you run off to your nearest pipe organ and play Bach, alwasy so healing for tension worries.
