+NinjaCacher! Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 (edited) I'll elaborate on my "site is slow" comment a little. Microsoft had 12 hotfixes for us to apply and surprise of surprises, they aren't working right. We're in the process of rolling back the "fixes" Microsoft install on our servers and will have things back to normal in the next few hours. The site will be slow, but we are working as fast as we can. At least from what I can see from this end, it looks like the site is back to normal Thanks for the hard work, guys! Nice update, the new CAaR tool is great and very helpful, I'm sure I'm going to use it more often than before. I also like the new link under my profile in the "Search Options" box saying "List newest in United Kingdom" (is it new actually?) Apart fro that, shame on Microsoft of creating "fixes" like that I stopped using automatic updates on Windows as some of their "fixes" have kept me from work more than once for half a day or more... but that's a different story.

+Cache O'Plenty Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 (edited) Address feature worked just fine for my home address. And the routing adjustment feature is perfect. My wife prefers an alternate routing to an area than the one GoogleEarth suggests. This worked just fine! Would like to have the caches show up on the screen though. Maybe next update..... And, splitting the input into two boxes would be good if they had a drop down that remembered previous entries (like your home address!). But for creating the route, this works for me! I had the proper route and it's PQ generated within a minute! Edited May 21, 2009 by Cache O'Plenty Link to comment
+NinjaCacher! Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Can't folks just chill out, forget about the site for a few hours, go and have a few coffees, come back when it's all done? What?! A few hours?!? I don't think I could survive more than half an hour without looking at the site Even if it just says "Sorry, site down for maintenance" This is just a hobby/past time/game/whatever! No it's not... it's an addiction Link to comment
+Mos_CH Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 (edited) I've got a strange problem: If I click (on the "my"-page) on "List newest in Switzerland", i'll get the normal selection page (Link is http://www.geocaching.com/seek/nearest.aspx?country_id=192 ) with the normal presets, "Country" is set to "Switzerland" and "State/Province" is set to "--Search All--". But when I now click on "seek >", it shows me the newest caches in Afghanistan. If I change the "State/Province" to any other possibility, e.g. to "Zentralschweiz", the page reloads (as normal) but the "Country" changes to "Afghanistan". If I set the "Country" back to "Switzerland", the search just starts, and the result is displayed: Afghanistan. The web-address shown always ends with "?country_id=192", which (at least until yesterday) has pointed to Switzerland. There is no way at the moment, to get the newest Swiss caches, and Afghanistan is a bit far away for the caching-tour tomorrow. Just tried to change the "Country" to Germany or France... always Afghanistan. Even when I try to set to "By Postal Code" or "By Username": Afghanistan It seems, that Geocaching in the future only will take place in Afghanistan Edited May 21, 2009 by Mos_CH Link to comment

Moun10Bike Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 The "Search Radius" dropdown does NOT affect your Pocket Query. It is not linked to that at all. It merely helps you guesstimate how far out from your route you want to go. Nothing has changed in the Pocket Query creation process itself; there, you can set whatever distance out you want just as before. Whoops! Unbeknownst to me, the text entry field for distance from route on the CAaR PQ page was replaced by a dropdown in the last release that did in fact limit your distance to a minimum of 0.5 mile. That has been changed now to allow you to go down to as little as 0.1 mile/0.1 km. Link to comment

I have a route PQ that neatly fit under the 500 max with 0.9 miles. I lose a lot of a caches with 0.5. If strange values cause problems, edit for them.

I have to say, though, that in the trade-off between helping the PQ generator by standardizing the distance from route entry and providing a completely customizable entry field, I tend to side toward helping the PQ generator.

OK, I will mourn the loss of function this update caused. Why is it a loss? If you want more caches, make a shorter route and increase the distance. It's always been a trade off and optimization process. The new feature of making your own route more than makes up for your perceived 'loss'. Link to comment

+beejay&esskay Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 (edited) This does seem to be the standard "you are doing it wrong" response. I had convenient daily trips. I set the distance to maximize the caches returned. It relied on being able to use 0.1 increments. Sure, I could go to more effort (if I had spare PQ definitions) to get the same result. But I have lost function in this area. (And I have a better way of generating routes with GSAK and Google Maps, but it's nice to see improvements to this site. However, nothing about that improvement required a removal of function.) Edited May 21, 2009 by beejay&esskay Link to comment

jholly Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 The cache along a route is an really nice feature. I like it. Thanks for implementing this one, it will make this activity really easy.

Until we're able to sort out the issue I'm afraid you'll experience various levels of site performance from "slow but usable" to "omg shoot me". Everything is dropped here until we're back online 100%. Thank you for your patience. Somehow it feels to me like this is the punishment for using MS ... at work we also have the most problems with MS servers. Do you guys have a complete test environment for testing such updates?

I get the infamous "An Error Has Occurred" dialog; clicking "retry your previous request" doesn't help. So then I click on the route name, and try "Create Pocket Query" from the "Create / Edit" page; same thing. When I upload a new route I've created in Garmin MapSource (which has always worked before) and try to "Create Pocket Query" from either the "Create / Edit" page or the list of all of my routes, I get the same error.

Do you guys have a complete test environment for testing such updates? I'm sure they do. What they don't have is ten thousand people, who are essential for testing in two ways: - They get to most of the darker corners of the site pretty quickly - They load the servers (OK, some of this can be simulated, but it's expensive to do). Every time the computer industry starts to get on top of a problem, the world changes and so do the challenges. Even 15 years ago it would have been inconceivable for a 20-person company to have one million customers. Link to comment

+LovOrca Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Groundspeak needs a lesson on CHANGE CONTROL and RELEASE MANAGEMENT. Did it really make sense to make a major site update THREE days before the largest Geocaching event all year? There are thousands of people wanting to just access the Geocaching website today and it is COMPLETELY DOWN (and up and down again). Can't even query a single cache, check in travel bugs, ANYTHING. I've worked in IT for 25 years. The most basic rule is NO MAJOR CHANGES prior to an ANTICIPATED heavy traffic period. Do you think Intuit (Turbotax) would allow a major release prior to April 15th? NO! Maybe the folks at Groundspeak need to take some ITIL training and put in some senisble Change Management policies. Then their PAYING MEMBERS would have a chance to use the services they paid for? Especially prior to leaving for a major geoaching event? Link to comment

Setting up a geocaching.com bugzilla account would really be helpful to ya all and to the members here. It may even cut down on some of the aggravation. Please seriously consider using this tool. It can be set up so that users can even suggest features and then allow voting on them - thus prioritizing new features based on user want. This would help - cPanel uses it and it really helps on the forums too! Moun10Bike - has it ever been considered, if not bring it up with the team - please?!?

I can understand your urge to review our list of bugs but unfortunately there are sensitive items mixed in with the mundane. It would require additional effort for us to groom the list to remove such things as planned infrastructure upgrades (which may expose us to security threats) and feature enhancements which we'd prefer to keep under wraps. For these reasons and others we will not be allowing access to the master list. The case numbers OpinioNate includes with each bug fix are so they can be referenced later if necessary. OpinioNate and I will try always to respond to bug reports when they are mentioned in the forums. In this way you will have some idea of what we are working on. Link to comment

I did not see an answer. I can understand your urge to review our list of bugs but unfortunately there are sensitive items mixed in with the mundane. It would require additional effort for us to groom the list to remove such things as planned infrastructure upgrades (which may expose us to security threats) and feature enhancements which we'd prefer to keep under wraps. For these reasons and others we will not be allowing access to the master list. The case numbers OpinioNate includes with each bug fix are so they can be referenced later if necessary. OpinioNate and I will try always to respond to bug reports when they are mentioned in the forums. In this way you will have some idea of what we are working on. Thank you for the reply, I think you are missing a good opportunity at public relations - which a simple peruse of the forums shows is needed. Not everything on the list has to be public.
