  • 503 Service Unavaliable.

    For the last few days when I come onto this site and look at threads and try to post a message will come up and say "503 Service Unavailable*. It says that the server is busy. I think that it might be my computer but I'm not sure. I've restarted my browser and computer and it still comes up. Has anyone else had problems with this?

      Yeah, everything works fine for me. I have noticed a bit of a lag every once in a while. But never a "Service Unavailable" error.

        Use to happen to me all the time a while back, stated again a couple days ago but didn't last long. Always seems to be with firefox and not IE. If I bring up the link in IE is always works fine.

          It's a server thing.

            It's not a bug, it's a feature.

                  Problem seems fairly random but trying to see if there is anything that can be done.

                        i haven't seen the issue either. an error like that comes from ur http server. and it can not way be browser specific, since the requests are the same (minus the little browser type description saying ur a hippy).

                        chances are it's caused by your collo. restarting the server process (not the hardware itself).

                        oooooor there's a proxy in front of the ppl who are experiencing the error (like a shaw or telus "speed boost" http proxy). and it's being restarted.

                        *shrug*

                        who knows. but firefox is stupid anyway

                          503 is server related not browser

                          anyways i use safari and ie8 with no issues ever..

                          servers may need a reboot one of these days and a vbulletin update too

                            I was with Telus had the same problem, now with shaw and problem is still there. I am running windows 7 though.
                            Also don't have the same problem at work machine with windows xp and firefox.

                              I run Windows 7 and Firefox and have not had the issue, just very strange it is not consistent.
