Is anyone else having a problem with the Chat forum and Firefox right now?

Logged in or out, http://singletrackworld.com/forum/forum/off-topic gives me a 'server error' and a nice picture of a teacup. Works fine in IE.

Mods? Anyone? Bueller?

Tools - Clear Recent History (Cache - today) should sort it.

Yeah, it's happening for me if I try and just view the chat forum in Firefox.

Or ask Cougar he seems to be the local IT expert...

(-:

Clearing the cache sorted it, of course. I'd mentally ruled that out because it was a serverside error rather than clientside.

Moral of this story, don't overlook the basics.

Cheers all.

Have I bested the mighty Cougar on an IT issue?

I hadn't been on the site for a few hours so the firefox optimised cache drivers were dormant and the redundant failovers failed.

Or something more cache related 🙂

I had the same error with the 'overview' errm view for a while a few weeks back.

Bit of cache clearing worked for me too but is odd to get s erverside error.

Forum works fine for me on FF except embedded videos don't work properly. The thumbnail gets corrupted and the nearby text gets messed up when I scroll.
