A phpBB bug, a problem with the server, or what?

I upgraded the software this weekend. I might have missed something.

What were you doing when the error popped up?

I'll check to see if it was me or if it was a transient problem.

Thanks,

Erik

I was attempting to post a message like I normally do (General-->Birthday). I tried several times with same result. I switched to this forum and posted the above msg. as a test. It posted with no problem. The really weird thing is, I just checked the original forum, and my post is there. It posted despite the error message to the contrary.

Actually it posted several times. I deleted two exact copies of the same message and left the third behind.

If you can, please post to that thread again and let me know what happens.

Thanks,

A test message posted just fine this time. Then I deleted it and that was as normal. Seems to be working now.

I haven't seen the problem either.

I'll keep my fingers crossed that it was a transient glitch. . .

Thanks,

I just did a bit more research and found that my hosting provider was having email difficulties over the weekend.

Others experienced exactly the same thing you did.

It seems to have been resolved.

Thanks again!

The error mentions SMTP - did Terry reply to someone who have requested to get an email reminder everytime someone replies, and the actual email sending from the server didn't work?

I kinda thought it was something along those lines because the error message, however cryptic, seems to indicate that the message bounced from the mailserver, (pegasus.lunarpages.com) rather than a problem with the BB software.

I get the server to send e-mails when people reply. I had no
difficulties or errors from this end.

Of course you would not notice an error in sending email if you are on the receiving end but don't get a particular message. At least not unless you later find out that you should've received a message but didn't. :lol:

What are you guys controlling the system or
something?!?

Blocking Eriks access maybe judged a criminal
offence.

They aren't Blue & White with a large microphone?

Or Military Coloured? ;-)

Do FBI & CIA have Helicopters?

Oh, sorry. I didn't realize that the Black Helicopters were a strictly North American phenomenon. Anyways, a google search on "black helicopter" turned up over 750,000 hits, begining with this one:

Perhaps your own search will be more illuminating...

Well, I don't know, I'm just guessing they are some
sort of Police Helicopter. Are they?

Nobody really knows just what they are. We only know that there is something sinister about them. Black Helicopters have been associated with Men In Black, who in turn, have been connected to the Illuminati, NWO, etc.

I should have realised there was some Goverment
Cover Conspiracy tied up with the 'Black' Heli's! ;-)

The conspiracy goes way beyond any single government, to a NewWorldOrder one-mass-gov't-for-the-whole-world kinda thing...

I understood your black helicopters, but preferred not to mention them further to ensure nothing bad will happen to me. Damn, now I mentioned them anyway...
