+uk89camaro Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 (edited) Great site. I actually prefer the "my stats" map to a shaded county map, as it shows a truer picture (I get the whole of london shaded for a quick find at Heathrow). I have both, and you can clearly see a large cluster near home, but then you can also see quite clearly a line of cache and dashes on the M1/M6/M42/M40. However, I'm still waiting for at least one of my placed caches to be recognised after a couple of weeks. GC1BZJY any help appreciated. Paul Edited May 16, 2008 by uk89camaro Quote

The reason it does not appear is it a member only cache. Only caches open to all appear on gcuk.com, this is to comply with GS requirements that member only caches are only available to paying members. If you want it to appear you will need to change the status. Quote

+The Hornet Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 Although the main site is working the database seems to have a problem which is preventing it displaying, maps, stats, etc. The error I'm seeing is: Couldn't insert caches into sresult - insert into sresult (query_id, type, cache_id) select 1066364, 'G',cache.id from cache where cache.uk_ind = 'Y' and cache.problem_ind = 'N' and cache.archived_ind = 'N' and cache.available_ind = 'Y' and cache.archived_ind = 'N' and cache.available_ind = 'Y' - Table './stats/cache' is marked as crashed and should be repaired Quote

+Gushoneybun Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 Does anyone know what is happening with the site? I did email Ian several days ago with no reply. I donate three PQ's to the site daily, but have curtailed them to every other day at the moment to use them myself. Quote
+The Brat Pack Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Seems to still be down - great shame. Anyone got any news on the problem and its resolution? Quote

+Maple Leaf Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 Excellent news. Just in case it goes down again, here are all the event caches. I really miss this list when I can't get it! There seems to be quite a few events missing off this list (I suppose they may have been published whilst the site was down - so may be updated soon). I find the easiest way to look at the forthcoming events is to click on 'Newest in... Uk' on 'My Account' page. Because all events are in the future they are all listed first (although you have to go forward a couple of pages to find the next event) Quote
+The Brat Pack Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 Nice to have it back although I suspect it will take a couple of days before the database is updated. Then I will need a hour or so spare to update and rate all the caches that we have done since it went down! Still a small price to pay. Quote
+Bear and Ragged Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 Down again. Too many people checking the site! Next time it's back, dont look! Quote
+CANTOR CLAN Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 Just been on tonight it`s back again but the cache ratings for devon are all over the place we have 2 in the top 10 and they have completely vanished along with the number 1 cache in devon Quote

+Gushoneybun Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 I stopped my PQ's going to it a while back, as there seemed no point, when it did reappear it was then so far out of date with a backlog of PQ's, so I stopped them to reduce the backlog. I know Deci tried to contact the owner, a few weeks back any news on that? as I do have an old email address for Ian (Teasel) if required. Quote

itchy-feet Posted September 24, 2008 Author Posted September 24, 2008 Been keeping an eye out for postings on the health of our favourite caching site. Is it time to accept that it is now likened unto the dodo gone never to return? Or is there anyone who could give us a sign of hope that it may one day be resurrected. Quote
