GC website not loading

The web06 version works for enquiries, but you can't use it to log caches.

The www version gives "500 - Internal server error.".

 

Perhaps it would help to know that you can log a cache using the Trimble Geocache Navigator, as someone has just managed that on one of my caches..

This happens every year on December 25-26 so the veterans should know to get the info they need before then.

 

Btw...I just logged in and got a PQ without any issues.

Just out of curiosity...why?

Using web06.Groundspeak.com instead of www.geocaching.com seems to work for a bit. But I am still getting Internal Service Error 500

It's been down for me for about 20 minutes, currently 11:16 EST in Atlanta GA. Getting:

Server Error

500 - Internal server error.

There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.

The main site came back up for me about 11:45 EST. Thank you to those responsible and a happy Boxing Day to you!

Still offline.

Lots of newbies just got a new GPS from Santa and come flocking to the site.

I guess "swell" means "not available", then?

[+Happy Humphrey 3]

Perhaps it's working OK in the USA. Further afield, it seems intermittent (and is "off" at the moment).

Working swell again. It's the Internet, not the USANet.

I think you'll find it's not quite as simple as that.

I can well imagine. Let us know when the final determination has been made, will you?

Getting "500 internal error" again

[+Lil Devil 12]

It's probably only happening on one of the multiple web servers. That's why it appears to come and go.

GPSr's as Christmas presents and newbie's running to the site to download caches.

Not able to log on either.
