I'd assume it is effecting everyone. I haven't been able to log on for the past approximately two days. I assumed the Trap17 host was aware of the problems, and was in the process of fixing it...mostly because the errors listed kept on changing
 Now for a related question: Have our hosting credits been subtracted for those days? Not a really important facet...but I'm just interested. |

Yes I'm experiencing it to. The thing is I start stressing out because what if my credits run out while the database is down?! And I have so few credits already
 I really don't feal like getting suspended.

It seems that there was a MySQL error. This is the first time it's been back for me and that last time I posted something was at 6:39 pm in the Shoutbox last night (Eastern Time) and today that shout was still there. Hopefully things will stay back up now but luckily this didn't effect the hosting because they are on separate servers.

Heh, well, I'm happy that I wasn't the only one having problems accessing the forums. When I did manage to log back on, I noticed that the number of credits that I have has decreased, so I guess it would be wise to accumulate a bunch of 'buffer' credits in case of times like these.
Hoping that all will be resolved soon  *editted add-on Errr. On second though, it has been a few days since I last posted so I'm not quite sure if the credit decrease is a result of my inactivity, or inability to log on, or a combination of both... *shrug* Regardless, having extra credits never hurts...

QUOTE Yes I'm experiencing it to. The thing is I start stressing out because what if my credits run out while the database is down?! And I have so few credits already I really don't feal like getting suspended.It is said in the forum index page QUOTE The Hosting Credits determine the amount of days you can remain inactive. We recommend that you maintain a sufficient amount of hosting credits (more than 10). This will give you enough time, incase you cannot stay active due to any consequences. The key words are maintain a sufficient amount, and due to any consequences. Please make sure you know the terms of free web hosting, no ads by Trap17. I am unaware of other Trap17 problems that Albus is saying. Do you mean the issue with Trap17 hosting issues have been frequent in recent days? Or are you refering to Trap17 FORUM database outage? Remember that Trap17 FORUM and Trap17 HOSTING are in two different servers. Although forum suffered database outage, your hosting was never interrupted during this period. In the past Trap17 hosting database being down, I have tracked downed the spammer who was abusing our SQL and his/her hosting has been terminated. Your hosting credit will always decrease by 1 each and everyday, regardless of Trap17's forum condition. Please make a note of the above bold red quote--which is also displayed in the forum index page, just below your hosting credit number. Thank you. |

Well thank god trap17 gets up after one day... I just got my hosting, barely can make up to 10 credits yet, so I was abit of worried yesterday, but I know the longest downtime trap17 forum has given me was like 1-2 day, so I could just wait and see...

Well yea I got that too. At first I was like it must be my computer so I tried it on my Dad's. Same problem. It said that it could not open a file or something. Hmm I wonder what the problem was. A error in the system. Then after it was fixed I went to try and post something it took a very long time before saying could not find internet connection and all that other stuff. But I knew that I had internet connection.

I wasnt sure, and since we only have my laptop here (we on holiday) so i thought mabe my laptop had a problem and i wouldent be able to keep my hosting.
But now im having website problems i cannot connect to any of my 2 websites hosted with trap17 (on one hosting account (im not abusing trap17 and having 2 accounts)) My error messages QUOTE Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/bkag/public_html/includes/functions/database.php on line 19 Unable to connect to database server! phpBB : Critical Error Could not connect to the database |
